Two proofs of the Central Limit Theorem using a renormalization group approach are presented. The first proof is conducted under a third moment assumption and shows that a suitable renormalization group map is a contraction over the space…

Limit theorems for non-additive probabilities or non-linear expectations are challenging issues which have raised progressive interest recently. The purpose of this paper is to study the strong law of large numbers and the law of the…

These lecture notes grew out of a series of lectures given by the second named author in short courses in Toulouse, Matsumoto, and Darmstadt. The main aim is to explain some aspects of the theory of "Regularity structures" developed…

This is the first of two articles on the study of a particle system model that exhibits a Turing instability type effect. The model is based on two discrete lines (or toruses) with Ising spins, that evolve according to a continuous time…

Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be the finite field of order $q$, and $\mathcal{A}$ a non-empty proper subset of $\mathbb{F}_q$. Let $\mathbf{M}$ be a random $m \times n$ matrix of rank $r$ over $\mathbb{F}_q$ taken with uniform distribution. It was…

Empirical, theoretical and historical aspects of Post's "problem of tag" from 1921 are explored. Evidence of strong computational irreducibility is found. Despite their deterministic origin, the lengths of successive sequences generated…

The main motivation for this article is to explore the connections between the existence of certain combinatorial patterns (as in van der Corputs's theorem on arithmetic progressions of length $3$) with well-known tools and theorems for…

Linear systems of neutral type are considered using the infinite dimensional approach. The main problems are asymptotic, non-exponential stability, exact controllability and regular asymptotic stabilizability. The main tools are the moment…

We prove new upper bounds for the length of laws that hold for all groups of size at most $n$ -- improving on previous results of Bou-Rabee and Kassabov-Matucci. The methods make use of the classification of finite simple groups. Stronger…

Using a general result of Lusztig, we find the decomposition into irreducibles of certain induced characters of the projective general linear group over a finite field of odd characteristic.

Let $T$ be a (first order complete) dependent theory, ${\mathfrak{C}}$ a $\bar\kappa$-saturated model of $T$ and $G$ a definable subgroup which is abelian. Among subgroups of bounded index which are the union of $<\bar\kappa$ type definable…

The main result of this paper is a general central limit theorem for distributions defined by certain renewal type equations. We apply this to weakly self-avoiding random walks. We give good error estimates and Gaussian tail estimates which…

Recently, a new conjecture on the degrees of the irreducible Brauer characters of a finite group was presented by the second author. In this paper we propose a 'local' version of this conjecture for blocks B of finite groups, giving a lower…

We show that the largest character degree of an alternating group $A_n$ with $n\geq 5$ can be bounded in terms of smaller degrees in the sense that \[ b(A_n)^2<\sum_{\psi\in\textrm{Irr}(A_n),\,\psi(1)< b(A_n)}\psi(1)^2, \] where…

We prove that the order of a finite group $G$ with trivial solvable radical is bounded above in terms of ${\rm acd}(G)$, the average degree of the irreducible characters. It is not true that the index of the Fitting subgroup is bounded…

The first aim of this paper is to wonder to what extent we can generalize the central limit theorem of Gordin [5] under the so-called L 1-projective criteria to ergodic stationary random fields when completely commuting filtrations are…

Linear second order recursive sequences with arbitrary initial conditions are studied. For sequences with the same parameters a ring and a group is attached, and isomorphisms and homomorphisms are established for related parameters. In the…

M. Hanzer and I. Matic have proved that the genuine unitary principal series representations of the metaplectic groups are irreducible. A simple consequence of that paper is a criterion for the irreducibility of the non-unitary principal…

In this paper, we establish an almost sure central limit theorem for a general random sequence under a strong approximation condition. Additionally, we derive the law of the iterated logarithm for the center of mass corresponding to a…

Let $G$ be a transitive permutation group on a finite set with solvable point stabiliser and assume that the solvable radical of $G$ is trivial. In 2010, Vdovin conjectured that the base size of $G$ is at most 5. Burness proved this…
