We consider questions related to the structure of infinite words (over an integer alphabet) with bounded additive complexity, i.e., words with the property that the number of distinct sums exhibited by factors of the same length is bounded…

In this note we consider the Hausdorff dimension of self-affine sets with random perturbations. We extend previous work in this area by allowing the random perturbation to be distributed according to distributions with unbounded support as…

We consider the problem of inferring the probability distribution associated with a language, given data consisting of an infinite sequence of elements of the languge. We do this under two assumptions on the algorithms concerned: (i) like a…

The Central Limit Theorem states that, in the limit of a large number of terms, an appropriately scaled sum of independent random variables yields another random variable whose probability distribution tends to a stable distribution. The…

Word maps provide a wealth of information about finite groups. We examine the connection between the probability distribution induced by a word map and the underlying structure of a finite group. We show that a finite group is nilpotent if…

The usual way to investigate the statistical properties of finitely generated subgroups of free groups, and of finite presentations of groups, is based on the so-called word-based distribution: subgroups are generated (finite presentations…

For a large class of symmetric random matrices with correlated entries, selected from stationary random fields of centered and square integrable variables, we show that the limiting distribution of eigenvalue counting measure always exists…

We give a simple inequality for the sum of independent bounded random variables. This inequality improves on the celebrated result of Hoeffding in a special case. It is optimal in the limit where the sum tends to a Poisson random variable.

We prove that the $k$-th positive integer moment of partial sums of Steinhaus random multiplicative functions over the interval $(x, x+H]$ matches the corresponding Gaussian moment, as long as $H\ll x/(\log x)^{2k^2+2+o(1)}$ and $H$ tends…

Let $f=(f_1,\ldots,f_n)$ be a system of $n$ complex homogeneous polynomials in $n$ variables of degree $d$. We call $\lambda\in\mathbb{C}$ an eigenvalue of $f$ if there exists $v\in\mathbb{C}^n\backslash\{0\}$ with $f(v)=\lambda v$,…

We consider the empirical eigenvalue distribution of an $m\times m$ principal submatrix of an $n\times n$ random unitary matrix distributed according to Haar measure. For $n$ and $m$ large with $\frac{m}{n}=\alpha$, the empirical spectral…

We compute exact asymptotic results for the probability of the occurrence of large deviations of the largest (smallest) eigenvalue of random matrices belonging to the Gaussian orthogonal, unitary and symplectic ensembles. In particular, we…

Let $d\geq 3$ be fixed and $G$ be a large random $d$-regular graph on $n$ vertices. We show that if $n$ is large enough then the entry distribution of every almost eigenvector $v$ of $G$ (with entry sum 0 and normalized to have length…

Let $p$ be a prime number, $X$ be an absolutely irreducible affine plane curve over $\mathbb{F}_p$, and $g,f\in\mathbb{F}_p(x,y)$. We study the distribution of the values of the hybrid exponential sums S_n on $n\in\mathcal{I}$ for some…

In this paper, we first briefly review some recent results on the distribution of the maximal eigenvalue of a $(N\times N)$ random matrix drawn from Gaussian ensembles. Next we focus on the Gaussian Unitary Ensemble (GUE) and by suitably…

The distribution of word probabilities in the monkey model of Zipf's law is associated with two universality properties: (1) the power law exponent converges strongly to $-1$ as the alphabet size increases and the letter probabilities are…

In the context of mod-Gaussian convergence, as defined previously in our work with J. Jacod, we obtain lower bounds for local probabilities for a sequence of random vectors which are approximately Gaussian with increasing covariance. This…

The empirical eigenvalue distribution of the elliptic random matrix ensemble tends to the uniform measure on an ellipse in the complex plane as its dimension tends to infinity. We show this convergence on all mesoscopic scales slightly…

The (general) hypoexponential distribution is the distribution of a sum of independent exponential random variables. We consider the particular case when the involved exponential variables have distinct rate parameters. We prove that the…
