We study the first-passage properties of a random walk in the unit interval in which the length of a single step is uniformly distributed over the finite range [-a,a]. For a of the order of one, the exit probabilities to each edge of the…
Breakpoint graphs are ubiquitous structures in the field of genome rearrangements. Their cycle decomposition has proved useful in computing and bounding many measures of (dis)similarity between genomes, and studying the distribution of…
We study the distribution of the number of permutations with a given periodic up-down sequence w.r.t. the last entry, find exponential generating functions and prove asymptotic formulas for this distribution.
This paper examines the classical matching distribution arising in the "problem of coincidences". We generalise the classical matching distribution with a preliminary round of allocation where items are correctly matched with some fixed…
We study the asymptotic behavior of short cycles of random permutations with cycle weights. More specifically, on a specially constructed metric space whose elements encode all possible cycles, we consider a point process containing all…
The distribution of the sum of independent identically distributed uniform random variables is well-known. However, it is sometimes necessary to analyze data which have been drawn from different uniform distributions. By inverting the…
We study the asymptotic behavior of cycles of uniformly random parking functions. Our results are multifold: we obtain an explicit formula for the number of parking functions with a prescribed number of cyclic points and show that the…
Permutations of correlated sequences of random variables appear naturally in a variety of applications such as graph matching and asynchronous communications. In this paper, the asymptotic statistical behavior of such permuted sequences is…
We show that given $n$ normalized intervals on the unit circle, the numbers of visits of $d$ random rotations to these intervals have a joint limiting distribution as lengths of trajectories tend to infinity. If $d$ then tends to infinity,…
Let $(\{1,2,\ldots,n\},d)$ be a metric space. We analyze the expected value and the variance of $\sum_{i=1}^{\lfloor n/2\rfloor}\,d({\boldsymbol{\pi}}(2i-1),{\boldsymbol{\pi}}(2i))$ for a uniformly random permutation ${\boldsymbol{\pi}}$ of…
A meander system is a union of two arc systems that represent non-crossing pairings of the set $[2n] = \{1, \ldots, 2n\}$ in the upper and lower half-plane. In this paper, we consider random meander systems. We show that for a class of…
We adopt a physically motivated empirical approach to the characterisation of the distributions of twin and triplet primes within the set of primes, rather than in the set of all natural numbers. Remarkably, the occurrences of twins or…
We consider a random permutation drawn from the set of permutations of length $n$ that avoid some given set of patterns of length 3. We show that the number of occurrences of another pattern $\sigma$ has a limit distribution, after suitable…
We provide upper and lower bounds for the expected length $\mathbb E(L_{n,m})$ of the longest common pattern contained in $m$ random permutations of length $n$. We also address the tightness of the concentration of $L_{n,m}$ around $\mathbb…
We use the fact that certain cosets of the stabilizer of points are pairwise conjugate in a symmetric group $S_n$ in order to construct recurrence relations for enumerating certain subsets of $S_n$. Occasionally one can find `closed form'…
In this paper we study cycles in random bipartite graph $G(n,n,p)$. We prove that if $p\gg n^{-2/3}$, then $G(n,n,p)$ a.a.s. satisfies the following. Every subgraph $G'\subset G(n,n,p)$ with more than $(1+o(1))n^2p/2$ edges contains a cycle…
We present analytical results for the distribution of the number of cycles in directed and undirected random 2-regular graphs (2-RRGs) consisting of $N$ nodes. In directed 2-RRGs each node has one inbound link and one outbound link, while…
In experiment, the multiplicity distributions of inelastic processes are truncated due to finite energy, insufficient statistics or special choice of events. It is shown that the moments of such truncated multiplicity distributions possess…
We count the number of occurrences of certain patterns in given words. We choose these words to be the set of all finite approximations of a sequence generated by a morphism with certain restrictions. The patterns in our considerations are…
We determine the distributions of lengths of runs in random sequences of elements from a totally ordered set (total order) or partially ordered set (partial order). In particular, we produce novel formulae for the expected value, variance,…
