We prove the universality of the large deviations for conjugacy invariant permutations with few cycles. As an application, we establish the universality of large deviation at speeds $n$ and $\sqrt{n}$ for the length of monotone subsequences…

We characterize the fundamental limits of high-dimensional mean testing under arbitrary truncation, where samples are drawn from the conditional distribution $P(\cdot \mid S)$ for an unknown truncation set $S$ that may hide up to an…

We study high moments of truncated Wigner nxn random matrices by using their representation as the sums over the set W of weighted even closed walks. We construct the subset W' of W such that the corresponding sum diverges in the limit of…

We study the $L_p$-discrepancy of random point sets in high dimensions, with emphasis on small values of $p$. Although the classical $L_p$-discrepancy suffers from the curse of dimensionality for all $p \in (1,\infty)$, the gap between…

The large moment method can be used to compute a large number of moments of physical quantities that are described by coupled systems of linear differential equations. Besides these systems the algorithm requires a certain number of initial…

In this paper, we investigate a stochastic approximation procedure $\left(X_n\right)_{n\ge 0}$ taking values in $R$. The process is adapted to a filtration $(F_n)_{n\ge 0}$ and satisfies the recursion…
