We prove a new upper bound for the minimum $d$-degree threshold for perfect matchings in $k$-uniform hypergraphs when $d<k/2$. As a consequence, this determines exact values of the threshold when $0.42k \le d < k/2$ or when $(k,d)=(12,5)$…
Assuming that a L\'evy-Driven Ornstein-Uhlenbeck (or CAR(1)) processes is observed at discrete times $0$, $h$, $2h$,$\cdots$ $[T/h]h$. We introduce a step-by-step methodological approach on how a person would verify the model assumptions.…
Huemer et al. (Discrete Mathematics, 2019) proved that for any two point sets $R$ and $B$ with $|R|=|B|$, the perfect matching that matches points of $R$ with points of $B$, and maximizes the total \emph{squared} Euclidean distance of the…
A coupling of two distributions $P_{X}$ and $P_{Y}$ is a joint distribution $P_{XY}$ with marginal distributions equal to $P_{X}$ and $P_{Y}$. Given marginals $P_{X}$ and $P_{Y}$ and a real-valued function $f$ of the joint distribution…
In this article, we compute the precise value of the maximum likelihood degree of the Gaussian graphical model of a cycle, confirming a conjecture due to Drton, Sturmfels and Sullivant.
The multiplicative coalescent is a Markov process taking values in ordered $l^2$. It is a mean-field process in which any pair of blocks coalesces at rate proportional to the product of their masses. In Aldous and Limic (1998) each extreme…
In 1930s Paul Erdos conjectured that for any positive integer C in any infinite +1 -1 sequence (x_n) there exists a subsequence x_d, x_{2d}, ... , x_{kd} for some positive integers k and d, such that |x_d + x_{2d} + ... + x_{kd}|> C. The…
Two families $\mathcal{A}$ and $\mathcal{B}$, of $k$-subsets of an $n$-set, are {\em cross $t$-intersecting} if for every choice of subsets $A \in \mathcal{A}$ and $B \in \mathcal{B}$ we have $|A \cap B| \geq t$. We address the following…
We prove a new "Toeplitz exactness" theorem for strong convergence. This is a machine to upgrade strong convergence in the general setting of $C^\ast$-correspondences, and has several applications.
In this article, we study the extremal processes of branching Brownian motions conditioned on having an unusually large maximum. The limiting point measures form a one-parameter family and are the decoration point measures in the extremal…
We review recent quantitative results on the approximation of mean field diffusion equations by large systems of interacting particles, obtained by optimal coupling methods. These results concern a larger range of models, more precise…
The spin-statistics theorem is generalized to include quantum entanglement. Specifically, within the context of spin entanglement, we prove that isotropic spin-correlated (ISC) states must occur in pairs. This pairing process can be…
Consider a metric space $(P,dist)$ with $N$ points whose doubling dimension is a constant. We present a simple, randomized, and recursive algorithm that computes, in $O(N \log N)$ expected time, the closest-pair distance in $P$. To generate…
Globally coupled doubling maps are studied in this paper. In this setting and for finitely many sites, two distinct bifurcation values of the coupling strength have been identified in the literature, corresponding to the emergence of…
We prove a conjecture by Shannon Starr regarding the asymptotics for the number of tuples of commuting permutations with given number of joint orbits. These numbers generalize unsigned Stirling numbers of the first kind which count how many…
In this paper, several fundamental facts, especially the existence and uniqueness of an absolutely continuous ergodic measure with an exponential mixing rate, are derived for smooth expanding circle maps. Although the results are classical,…
Modelling amplitudes of stochastically excited oscillations in stars is a powerful tool for understanding the properties of the convective zones. For instance, it gives us information on the way turbulent eddies are temporally correlated in…

Let $K_{r_1,\ldots,r_s}$ denote the complete multipartite graph with class sizes $r_1,\ldots,r_s$ and let $K_s$ denote the complete graph of order $s$. In 2018, Luo determined the maximum number of $K_s$ in 2-connected graphs with a given…
We extend Berge's Maximum Theorem to allow for incomplete preferences. We first provide a simple version of the Maximum Theorem for convex feasible sets and a fixed preference. Then, we show that if, in addition to the traditional…
