We consider the self-normalized sums $T_{n}=\sum_{i=1}^{n}X_{i}Y_{i}/\sum_{i=1}^{n}Y_{i}$, where ${Y_{i} : i\geq 1}$ are non-negative i.i.d. random variables, and ${X_{i} : i\geq 1} $ are i.i.d. random variables, independent of ${Y_{i} : i…

We prove that Palais-Smale sequences for Liouville type functionals on closed surfaces are precompact whenever they satisfy a bound on their Morse index. As a byproduct, we obtain a new proof of existence of solutions for Liouville type…

It is well-known that for a quickly increasing sequence $(n_k)_{k \geq 1}$ the functions $(\cos 2 \pi n_k x)_{k \geq 1}$ show a behavior which is typical for sequences of independent random variables. If the growth condition on $(n_k)_{k…

In this paper, we investigate the local universality of the number of zeros of a random periodic signal of the form $S_n(t)=\sum_{k=1}^n a_k f(k t)$, where $f$ is a $2\pi-$periodic function satisfying weak regularity conditions and where…
