We build optimal exponential bounds for the probabilities of large deviations of sums \sum_{k=1}^nf(X_k) where (X_k) is a finite reversible Markov chain and f is an arbitrary bounded function. These bounds depend only on the stationary mean…

Gaussian graphical models have become a well-recognized tool for the analysis of conditional independencies within a set of continuous random variables. From an inferential point of view, it is important to realize that they are composite…

Given two subgroups $H,K$ of a finite group $G$, the probability that a pair of random elements from $H$ and $K$ commutes is denoted by $Pr(H,K)$. Suppose that a finite group $G$ admits a group of coprime automorphisms $A$ and let…

We study largest singular values of large random matrices, each with mean of a fixed rank $K$. Our main result is a limit theorem as the number of rows and columns approach infinity, while their ratio approaches a positive constant. It…

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…

Let $X$ be a symmetric random matrix with independent but non-identically distributed centered Gaussian entries. We show that $$ \mathbf{E}\|X\|_{S_p} \asymp \mathbf{E}\Bigg[ \Bigg(\sum_i\Bigg(\sum_j X_{ij}^2\Bigg)^{p/2}\Bigg)^{1/p} \Bigg]…

We prove a new automorphy lifting theorem for l-adic representations where we impose a new condition at l, which we call `potential diagonalizability'. This result allows for `change of weight' and seems to be substantially more flexible…

A quantum finite multi-barrier system, with a periodic potential, is considered and exact expressions for its plane wave amplitudes are obtained using the Transfer Matrix method [10]. This quantum model is then associated with a stochastic…
