Let $M(\alpha)$ denote the Mahler measure of the algebraic number $\alpha$. In a recent paper, Dubickas and Smyth constructed a metric version of the Mahler measure on the multiplicative group of algebraic numbers. Later, Fili and the…

We introduce the Takagi--van der Waerden function with parameters $a{>}b{>}0$ by setting $f_{a,b}(x)=\sum\limits_{n=1}^\infty b^n d\big(x,S_n\big)$, where $S_n$ is a maximal $\frac1{a^n}$-separated set in a metric space $X$. So, if…

We prove that the smallest minimizer s(f) of a real convex function f is less than or equal to a real point x if and only if the right derivative of f at x is non-negative. Similarly, the largest minimizer t(f) is greater or equal to x if…

Let $(X, \mathcal{B}, \mu, T)$ be a dynamical system where $X$ is a compact metric space with Borel $\sigma$-algebra $\mathcal{B}$, and $\mu$ is a probability measure that's ergodic with respect to the homeomorphism $T : X \to X$. We study…

Let $S$ be a subset of $\mathbb{R}^d$ with finite positive Lebesgue measure. The Beer index of convexity $\operatorname{b}(S)$ of $S$ is the probability that two points of $S$ chosen uniformly independently at random see each other in $S$.…

For any hyperbolic rational map and any net of Borel probability measures on the space of Borel probability measures on the Julia set, we show that this net satisfies a strong form of the large deviation principle with a rate function given…

Let $f$ be an algebraically nondegenerate meromorphic mapping from $\mathbb C^m$ into $\mathbb P^n(\mathbb C)$ and let $Q_1,...,Q_q$ be $q$ hypersurfaces in $\mathbb P^n(\mathbb C)$ of degree $d_i$, in $N-$subgeneral position. In this…

The classic Thue--Morse measure is a paradigmatic example of a purely singular continuous probability measure on the unit interval. Since it has a representation as an infinite Riesz product, many aspects of this measure have been studied…

In the paper we pursue the analysis from the section 5 of the Talagrand's paper "Sample boundedness of stochastic processes under increment conditions." Ann. Probab. 18, No. 1, 1-49. In particular we give the proof of some Sobolev…

Let $\mu$ be a Borel probability measure on a compact path-connected metric space $(X, \rho)$ for which there exist constants $c,\beta>1$ such that $\mu(B) \geq c r^{\beta}$ for every open ball $B\subset X$ of radius $r>0$. For a class of…

Outer measures can be used for statistical inference in place of probability measures to bring flexibility in terms of model specification. The corresponding statistical procedures such as Bayesian inference, estimators or hypothesis…

Let $P_s\phi(x)=\mathbb{E}\, \phi(X^x(s))$, be the transition semigroup on the space $B_b(E)$ of bounded measurable functions on a Banach space $E$, of the Markov family defined by the linear equation with additive noise $$ d X(s)=…

We derive an entropic uncertainty relation for generalized positive-operator-valued measure (POVM) measurements via a direct-sum majorization relation using Schur concavity of entropic quantities in a finite-dimensional Hilbert space. Our…

For $1\le p \le \infty$, the Fr\'echet $p$-mean of a probability measure on a metric space is an important notion of central tendency that generalizes the usual notions in the real line of mean ($p=2$) and median ($p=1$). In this work we…

Let $(X,\mathcal{B},\mu,T)$ be a measure preserving system. We say that a function $f\in L^2(X,\mu)$ is $\mu$-mean equicontinuous if for any $\epsilon>0$ there is $k\in \mathbb{N}$ and measurable sets ${A_1,A_2,\cdots,A_k}$ with…

In this paper we prove that if $\{\varphi_i(x)=\lambda x+t_i\}$ is an equicontractive iterated function system and $b$ is a positive integer satisfying $\frac{\log b}{\log |\lambda|}\notin\mathbb{Q},$ then almost every $x$ is normal in base…

A new approach to disintegration of measures is presented, allowing one to drop the usually taken separability assumption. The main tool is a result on fibers in the spectrum of algebra of essentially bounded functions established recently…

In arithmetic statistics and analytic number theory, the asymptotic growth rate of counting functions giving the number of objects with order below $X$ is studied as $X\to \infty$. We define general counting functions which count…

Let $M$ be a compact 1-manifold. Given a continuous function $g:M\to \mathbb R_+$ we consider the following ordinary differential equation: $\|\dot{f}(t)\|=g(t)$, where $f:M\to \mathbb R^2$. We construct a probability measure on the space…
