Given $n$ independent random marked $d$-vectors $X_i$ with a common density, define the measure $\nu_n = \sum_i \xi_i $, where $\xi_i$ is a measure (not necessarily a point measure) determined by the (suitably rescaled) set of points near…
Let $E \subset \mathbb R^d$, $d \ge 2$, be compact, and let $\phi(x,y)$ be a smooth function satisfying the Phong--Stein rotational curvature condition on $\{\phi(x,y)=1\}$. We prove that if $\dim_{\mathcal H}(E)>1$, then $$…
We show that if $(X, \mu, T)$ is a probability measure-preserving dynamical system, and $\mathscr{P}$ is a countable partition of $(X, \mu)$, then the limit $$ \lim_{n, k \to \infty} \mathbb{E} \left[ \frac{1}{k} \sum_{j = 0}^{k - 1} f…
Let $\lambda$ be a probability measure on $\mathbb T^{n-1}$ where $n=2$ or 3. Suppose $\lambda$ is invariant, ergodic and has positive entropy with respect to the linear transformation defined by a hyperbolic matrix. We get a measure $\mu $…
With a new proof approach we prove in a more general setting the classical convergence theorem that almost everywhere convergence of measurable functions on a finite measure space implies convergence in measure. Specifically, we generalize…
Let $X=\{ X_n\}_{n\in \mathbb{Z}}$ be zero-mean stationary Gaussian sequence of random variables with covariance function $\rho$ satisfying $\rho(0)=1$. Let $\varphi:\mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R}$ be a function such that…
Let $\mathcal{P}$ be the set of all primes and $\pi(x)$ be the number of primes up to $x$. For any $n\ge 2$, let $P^+(n)$ be the largest prime factor of $n$. For $0<c<1$, let $$T_c(x)=\#\{p\le x:p\in \mathcal{P},P^+(p-1)\ge p^c\}.$$ In this…
One tuple of probability vectors is more informative than another tuple when there exists a single stochastic matrix transforming the probability vectors of the first tuple into the probability vectors of the other. This is called matrix…
If $\Lambda $ is a measure space, $u:\Lambda ^{m}\rightarrow \Bbb{R}$ is a given function and $N\geq m,$ the function $U(x_{1},...,x_{N})=\left( \begin{array}{l} N \\ m \end{array} \right) ^{-1}\sum_{1\leq i_{1}<\cdots <i_{m}\leq…
We prove an isoperimetric inequality for probability measures $\mu$ on $\mathbb{R}^n$ with density proportional to $\exp(-\phi(\lambda | x|))$, where $|x|$ is the euclidean norm on $\mathbb{R}^n$ and $\phi$ is a non-decreasing convex…
Random integers, sampled uniformly from $[1,x]$, share similarities with random permutations, sampled uniformly from $S_n$. These similarities include the Erd\H{o}s--Kac theorem on the distribution of the number of prime factors of a random…
We denote by $P^+(n)$ the largest prime factor of the integer $n$. In 1935, Erd\H os studied the quantity $T_c(x)$ defined by $$ T_c(x)=\big|\big\{p\le x: P^+(p-1)\ge p^c\big\}\big|, $$ and he proved $$ \limsup_{x\rightarrow…
A remarkable theorem of Besicovitch is that an integrable function $f$ on $\mathbb{R}^2$ is strongly differentiable if and only if its associated strong maximal function $M_S f$ is finite a.e. We provide an analogue of Besicovitch's result…
Let $ \mu $ be the self-similar measure associated with a homogeneous iterated function system $ \Phi = \{ \lambda x + t_j \}_{j=1}^m $ on ${\Bbb R}$ and a probability vector $ (p_{j})_{j=1}^m$, where $0\neq \lambda\in (-1,1)$ and $t_j\in…
A criterion of joint ergodicity of several sequences of transformations of a probability measure space $X$ of the form $T_{i}^{\phi_{i}(n)}$ is given for the case where $T_{i}$ are commuting measure preserving transformations of $X$ and…
This article is devoted to a study of majorization based on semi-doubly stochastic operators (denoted by $S\mathcal{D}(L^1)$) on $L^1(X)$ when $X$ is a $\sigma$-finite measure space. We answered Mirsky's question and characterized the…
The Taylor expansion is a widely used and powerful tool in all branches of Mathematics, both pure and applied. In Probability and Mathematical Statistics, however, a stronger version of Taylor's classical theorem is often needed, but only…
A maxitive measure is the analogue of a finitely additive measure or charge, in which the usual addition is replaced by the supremum operation. Contrarily to charges, maxitive measures often have a density. We show that maxitive measures…
Given positive measures $\nu,\mu$ on an arbitrary measurable space $(\Omega, \mathcal F)$, we construct a sequence of finite partitions $(\pi_n)_n$ of $(\Omega, \mathcal F)$ s.t. $$ \sum_{A\in \pi_n: \mu(A)>0} 1_{A} \frac{\nu(A)}{\mu(A)}…
For a homeomorphism $T$ on a compact metric space $X$, a $T$-invariant Borel probability measure $\mu$ on $X$ and a measure-theoretic quasifactor $\widetilde{\mu}$ of $\mu$, we study the relationship between the local entropy of the system…
