We consider discrete-time Markov Decision Processes with Borel state and action spaces and universally measurable policies. For several long-run average cost criteria, we establish the following optimality results: the optimal average cost…

For any continuous map f on a compact manifold M, we define the SRB-like (or observable) probabilities as a generalization of Sinai-Ruelle-Bowen (i.e. physical) measures. We prove that f has observable measures, even if SRB measures do not…

The unitary group U(N) acts by conjugations on the space H(N) of NxN Hermitian matrices, and every orbit of this action carries a unique invariant probability measure called an orbital measure. Consider the projection of the space H(N) onto…

Let $\lambda$ be a probability measure on $\mathbb T^{n-1}$ where $n=2$ or 3. Suppose $\lambda$ is invariant, ergodic and has positive entropy with respect to the linear transformation defined by a hyperbolic matrix. We get a measure $\mu $…

Consider a discrete time Markov chain with rather general state space which has an invariant probability measure $\mu$. There are several sufficient conditions in the literature which guarantee convergence of all or $\mu$-almost all…

The Grothendieck--Serre conjecture predicts that every generically trivial torsor under a reductive group scheme $G$ over a regular local ring $R$ is trivial. The mixed characteristic case of the conjecture is widely open. We consider the…

This work contributes to the programme of studying effective versions of "almost everywhere" theorems in analysis and ergodic theory via algorithmic randomness. We determine the level of randomness needed for a point in a Cantor space $…

We prove that if $p\ge 1$ and $0< r\le p$ then the sequence $\binom{mp+r}{m}\frac{r}{mp+r}$, $m=0,1,2,...$, is positive definite, more precisely, is the moment sequence of a probability measure $\mu(p,r)$ with compact support contained in…

We characterise the multiplicative chaos measure $\mathcal{M}$ associated to planar Brownian motion introduced in [BBK94,AHS20,Jeg20a] by showing that it is the only random Borel measure satisfying a list of natural properties. These…

We develop new techniques for rounding packing integer programs using iterative randomized rounding. It is based on a novel application of multidimensional Brownian motion in $\mathbb{R}^n$. Let $\overset{\sim}{x} \in {[0,1]}^n$ be a…

For a family X of k-subsets of the set 1,...,n, let |X| be the cardinality of X and let Gamma(X,mu) be the expected maximum weight of a subset from X when the weights of 1,...,n are chosen independently at random from a symmetric…

Let $\mu$ be a general stochastic measure, where we assume for $\mu$ only $\sigma$-additivity in probability and continuity of paths. We prove that the symmetric integral $\int_{[0,T]}f(\mu_t, t)\circ\,{\rm d}\mu_t$ is well defined. For…

We study numerical methods for the generalized Langevin equation (GLE) with a positive Prony series memory kernel, in which case the GLE can be written in an extended variable Markovian formalism. We propose a new splitting method that is…

Let $M_n^{(k)}$ denote the $k$th largest maximum of a sample $(X_1,X_2,...,X_n)$ from parent $X$ with continuous distribution. Assume there exist normalizing constants $a_n>0$, $b_n\in \mathbb{R}$ and a nondegenerate distribution $G$ such…

Let $G$ be a multiplicative subsemigroup of the general linear group $\Gl(\mathbb{R}^d)$ which consists of matrices with positive entries such that every column and every row contains a strictly positive element. Given a $G$--valued random…

Let $F_n$ be an $n$ by $n$ symmetric matrix whose entries are bounded by $n^{\gamma}$ for some $\gamma>0$. Consider a randomly perturbed matrix $M_n=F_n+X_n$, where $X_n$ is a random symmetric matrix whose upper diagonal entries $x_{ij}$…

Let $\gamma_n$ be the standard Gaussian measure on $\mathbb{R}^n$. We prove that for every symmetric convex sets $K,L$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$ and every $\lambda\in(0,1)$, $$\gamma_n(\lambda K+(1-\lambda)L)^{\frac{1}{n}} \geq \lambda…

Given $n$ real numbers $0\leq x_1,...,x_n<1$ and a permutation~$\sigma$ of $\{1,...,n\}$, we can always find $\xbar_1,...,\xbar_n\in\{0,1\}$ so that the partial sums $\xbar_1+... +\xbar_k$ and $\xbar_{\sigma 1}+... +\xbar_{\sigma k}$ differ…

We study ternary sequences associated with a multidimensional continued fraction algorithm introduced by the first author. The algorithm is defined by two matrices and we show that it is measurably isomorphic to the shift on the set…

Let $t \in [1,2)$ and $p > 2/(2 - t)$. I construct a $t$-Frostman Borel measure $\mu$ on $[0,1]^{2}$ such that $\pi_{\theta}\mu \notin L^{p}$ for every $\theta \in S^{1}$. This answers a question of Peres and Schlag.
