This article provides tools for the study of the Dirichlet random walk in $\mathbb{R}^d$. By this we mean the random variable $W=X_1\Theta_1+\cdots+X_n\Theta_n$ where $X=(X_1,\ldots,X_n) \sim \mathcal{D}(q_1,\ldots,q_n)$ is Dirichlet…

This work studies the chord length distribution, in the case where both ends lie on a $N$-dimensional hypersphere ($N \geq 2$). Actually, after connecting this distribution to the recently estimated surface of a hyperspherical cap…

We give an explicit formula for the probability that the convex hull of an $n$-step random walk in $R^d$ does not contain the origin, under the assumption that the distribution of increments of the walk is centrally symmetric and puts no…

We show that the expected value of the mean width of a random polytope generated by $N$ random vectors ($n\leq N\leq e^{\sqrt n}$) uniformly distributed in an isotropic convex body in $\R^n$ is of the order $\sqrt{\log N} L_K$. This…

We equip the polytope of $n\times n$ Markov matrices with the normalized trace of the Lebesgue measure of $\mathbb{R}^{n^2}$. This probability space provides random Markov matrices, with i.i.d. rows following the Dirichlet distribution of…

We study random partitions $\lambda=(\lambda_1,\lambda_2,...,\lambda_d)$ of $n$ whose length is not bigger than a fixed number $d$. Suppose a random partition $\lambda$ is distributed according to the Jack measure, which is a deformation of…

We propose the following model of a random graph on n vertices. Let F be a distribution in R_+^{n(n-1)/2} with a coordinate for every pair i$ with 1 \le i,j \le n. Then G_{F,p} is the distribution on graphs with n vertices obtained by…

In this paper we deduce a universal result about the asymptotic distribution of roots of random polynomials, which can be seen as a complement to an old and famous result of Erdos and Turan. More precisely, given a sequence of random…
