A sum of a large-dimensional random matrix polynomial and a fixed low-rank matrix polynomial is considered. The main assumption is that the resolvent of the random polynomial converges to some deterministic limit. A formula for the limit of…
The factor analysis model is a statistical model where a certain number of hidden random variables, called factors, affect linearly the behaviour of another set of observed random variables, with additional random noise. The main assumption…
In this paper, we propose a parametrised factor that enables inference on Gaussian networks where linear dependencies exist among the random variables. Our factor representation is effectively a generalisation of traditional Gaussian…
A new family of asymmetric matrices of Walsh-Hadamard type is introduced. We study their properties and, in particular, compute their determinants and discuss their eigenvalues. The invertibility of these matrices implies that certain…
Some aspects of the multiplicative anomaly of zeta determinants are investigated. A rather simple approach is adopted and, in particular, the question of zeta function factorization, together with its possible relation with the…
We define and study fractional versions of the well-known Gamma subordinator $\Gamma :=\{\Gamma (t),$ $t\geq 0\},$ which are obtained by time-changing $% \Gamma $ by means of an independent stable subordinator or its inverse. Their…
Conrey, Farmer, Keating, Rubinstein and Snaith have given a recipe that conjecturally produces, among others, the full moment polynomial for the Riemann zeta function. The leading term of this polynomial is given as a product of a factor…
The (generalised) Mellin transforms of certain Chebyshev and Gegenbauer functions based upon the Chebyshev and Gegenbauer polynomials, have polynomial factors $p_n(s)$, whose zeros lie all on the `critical line' $\Re\,s=1/2$ or on the real…
This paper presents an extension of Bhargava's theory of factorials associated to any nonempty subset $S$ of $\mathbb{Z}$. Bhargava's factorials $k!_S$ are invariants, constructed using the notion of $p$-orderings of $S$ where $p$ is a…
A set of functions is defined which is indexed by a positive integer $n$ and partitions of integers. The case $n=1$ reproduces the standard Schur polynomials. These functions are seen to arise naturally as a determinant of an action on the…
We consider properties of the box polynomials, a one variable polynomial defined over all integer partitions $\lambda$ whose Young diagrams fit in an $m$ by $n$ box. We show that these polynomials can be expressed by the finite difference…
We present the heavy-to-light form factors with two different non-vanishing masses at next-to-next-to-leading order and study its expansion in the small mass. The leading term of this small-mass expansion leads to a factorized expression…
Distribution functions for random variables that depend on a parameter are computed asymptotically for ensembles of positive Hermitian matrices. The inverse Fourier transform of the distribution is shown to be a Fredholm determinant of a…
The main result of this paper is that an entire function $f$ that is in $L^2(\mathbb C^n,\psi)$ with respect to the weight $\psi(z)=2mH_S(z)+\gamma\log(1+|z|^2)$ is a polynomial with exponents in $m\widehat S_\Gamma$. Here $H_S$ is the…
Recent innovations on the differential calculus for functions of non-commuting variables, begun for a quaternionic variable, are now extended to the case of a general matrix over the complex numbers. The expansion of F(X+Delta) is given to…
We define multideterminantal probability measures, a family of probability measures on $[k]^n$ where $[k]=\{1,2,\dots,k\}$, generalizing determinantal measures (which correspond to the case $k=2$). We give examples coming from the positive…
Since the seminal work of Keating and Snaith, the characteristic polynomial of a random Haar-distributed unitary matrix has seen several of its functional studied or turned into a conjecture; for instance: $ \bullet $ its value in $1$…
Several combinatorial identities are presented, involving Stirling functions of the second kind with a complex variable. The identities involve also Stirling numbers of the first kind, binomial coefficients and harmonic numbers.
Stanley introduces polynomials which help evaluate symmetric group characters and conjectures that the coefficients of the polynomials are positive. Stanley later gives a conjectured combinatorial interpretation for the coefficients of the…
A vector composition of a vector $\mathbf{\ell}$ is a matrix $\mathbf{A}$ whose rows sum to $\mathbf{\ell}$. We define a weighted vector composition as a vector composition in which the column values of $\mathbf{A}$ may appear in different…
