The minimum orbital separation of planets in long-stable planetary systems is often modeled as a step function, parameterized with a single value $\Delta_{min}$ (measured in mutual Hill radius of the two neighboring planets). Systems with…

The convex transform order is one way to make precise comparison between the skewness of probability distributions on the real line. We establish a simple and complete characterisation of when one Beta distribution is smaller than another…

A theoretical framework is developed to describe the transformation that distributes probability density functions uniformly over space. In one dimension, the cumulative distribution can be used, but does not generalize to higher…

We investigate front propagation in systems with diffusive and sub-diffusive behavior. The scaling behavior of moments of the diffusive problem, both in the standard and in the anomalous cases, is not enough to determine the features of the…

In this paper, we propose a new distribution with unitary support which can be characterized as a ratio of the type $W=X_1/(X_1+X_2)$, where $(X_1, X_2)^\top$ follows a bivariate extreme distribution with Fr\'echet margins, that is, $X_1$…

Any Borel probability measure supported on a Cantor set of zero Lebesgue measure on the real line possesses a discrete inverse measure. We study the validity of the multifractal formalism for the inverse measures of random weak Gibbs…

A probability distribution over the Boolean cube is monotone if flipping the value of a coordinate from zero to one can only increase the probability of an element. Given samples of an unknown monotone distribution over the Boolean cube, we…
