Fix a positive integer $N$. Select an additive composition $\xi$ of $N$ uniformly out of $2^{N-1}$ possibilities. The interplay between the number of parts in $\xi$ and the maximum part in $\xi$ is our focus. It is not surprising that…

We consider the self-normalized sums $T_{n}=\sum_{i=1}^{n}X_{i}Y_{i}/\sum_{i=1}^{n}Y_{i}$, where ${Y_{i} : i\geq 1}$ are non-negative i.i.d. random variables, and ${X_{i} : i\geq 1} $ are i.i.d. random variables, independent of ${Y_{i} : i…

We investigate ergodic-theoretical quantities and large deviation properties of one-dimensional intermittent maps, that have not only an indifferent fixed point but also a singular structure such that the uniform measure is invariant under…

In multiple classification, one aims to determine whether a testing sequence is generated from the same distribution as one of the M training sequences or not. Unlike most of existing studies that focus on discrete-valued sequences with…

We study the question of existence of positive steady states of nonlinear evolution equations. We recast the steady state equation in the form of eigenvalue problems for a parametrised family of unbounded linear operators, which are…

We consider smoothing equations of the form $$X ~\stackrel{\mathrm{law}}{=}~ \sum_{j \geq 1} T_j X_j + C$$ where $(C,T_1,T_2,\ldots)$ is a given sequence of random variables and $X_1,X_2,\ldots$ are independent copies of $X$ and independent…

Self-similarity of systems is very popular and intensively developing field during last decades. To this field belong so-called stable distributions and their generalization. In Klebanov and Sl\'amov\'a (2014) there was given an approach to…

Let $Z$ be a random variable with values in a proper closed convex cone $C\subset \mathbb{R}^d$, $A$ a random endomorphism of $C$ and $N$ a random integer. We assume that $Z$, $A$, $N$ are independent. Given $N$ independent copies…

A graph $X$ is said to be "unstable" if the direct product $X \times K_2$ (also called the canonical double cover of $X$) has automorphisms that do not come from automorphisms of its factors $X$ and $K_2$. It is "nontrivially unstable" if…

Let $(X_{n,t})_{t=1}^{\infty}$ be a stationary absolutely regular sequence of real random variables with the distribution dependent on the number~$n$. The paper presents sufficient conditions for the asymptotic normality (for $n\to\infty$…

For a stationary sequence that is regularly varying and associated we give conditions which guarantee that partial sums of this sequence, under normalization related to the exponent of regular variation, converge in distribution to a…

The sum of $N$ sufficiently strongly correlated random variables will not in general be Gaussian distributed in the limit N\to\infty. We revisit examples of sums x that have recently been put forward as instances of variables obeying a…

Using the LePage representation, a strictly stable random element in a Banach space with $\alpha\in(0,2)$ can be represented as a sum of points of a Poisson process. This point process is union-stable, i.e. the union of its two independent…

Motivated by a recent extension of the zero-one law by Kolaitis and Kopparty, we study the distribution of the number of copies of a fixed disconnected graph in the random graph $G(n,p)$. We use an idea of graph decompositions to give a…

We study a one-dimensional gas of $N$ Brownian particles that diffuse independently but are simultaneously reset whenever any of them reaches a fixed threshold located at $L > 0$. For any $N > 2$, the system reaches a non-equilibrium…

We consider a type of evolution on {0,1}^n which occurs in discrete steps whereby at each step, we replace every occurrence of the substring "01" by "10". After at most n-1 steps we will reach a string of the form 11..1100..11, which we…

We develop a monitoring procedure to detect changes in a large approximate factor model. Letting $r$ be the number of common factors, we base our statistics on the fact that the $\left( r+1\right) $-th eigenvalue of the sample covariance…

Let $X_1,\,X_2,\,\ldots,\,X_N$, $N\in\mathbb{N}$ be independent but not necessarily identically distributed discrete and integer-valued random variables. Assume that $X_1\geqslant m_1$, $X_2\geqslant m_2$, $\ldots$, $X_N\geqslant m_N$…

At each time $n\in\mathbb{N}$, let $\bar{Y}^{(n)}=(y_{1}^{(n)},y_{2}^{(n)},\cdots)$ be a random sequence of non-negative numbers that are ultimately zero in a random environment $\xi=(\xi_{n})_{n\in\mathbb{N}}$ in time, which satisfies for…

In this paper we consider random dynamical systems formed by concatenating maps acting on the unit interval $[0,1]$ in an iid fashion. Considered as a stationary Markov process, the random dynamical system possesses a unique stationary…
