In Clearing Up Mysteries -- The Original Goal (Maximum Entropy and Bayesian Methods: Cambridge, England, 1988 Springer, pp. 1-27) Jaynes derived Fick's Law for a dilute binary solution from Bayes' Theorem by considering, probabilistically,…
In Arguin & Tai (2018), the authors prove the convergence of the two-overlap distribution at low temperature for a randomized Riemann zeta function on the critical line. We extend their results to prove the Ghirlanda-Guerra identities. As a…
For branching processes, the generating functions for limit distributions of so-called ratios of probabilities of rare events satisfy the Schr\"oder-type integral-functional equations. Excepting limited special cases, the corresponding…
The objective of this note is to establish the Determinant Majorization Formula $F(A)^{1\over N} \geq \det(A)^{1\over n}$ for all operators $F$ determined by an invariant Garding-Dirichlet polynomial of degree $N$ on symmetric $n \times n$…
Every element $\theta=(\theta_1,\ldots,\theta_n)$ of the probability $n$-simplex induces a probability distribution $P_\theta$ of a random variable $X$ that can assume only a finite number of real values $x_1 < \cdots < x_n$ by defining…
We extend the Dirichlet principle to non-reversible Markov processes on countable state spaces. We present two variational formulas for the solution of the Poisson equation or, equivalently, for the capacity between two disjoint sets. As an…
Many scientific and industrial processes produce data that is best analysed as vectors of relative values, often called compositions or proportions. The Dirichlet distribution is a natural distribution to use for composition or proportion…
We consider a fractional counting process with jumps of amplitude $1,2,\ldots,k$, with $k\in \mathbb{N}$, whose probabilities satisfy a suitable system of fractional difference-differential equations. We obtain the moment generating…
In this article, we study a model of random permutations, which we call random standardized permutations, based on a sequence of i.i.d. random variables. This model generalizes others, such as the riffle-shuffle and the major-index-biased…
Various problems in engineering and natural science demand binary sequences that do not resemble translates of themselves, that is, the sequences must have small aperiodic autocorrelation at every nonzero shift. If $f$ is a sequence, then…
We introduce a theory of probabilistic renormalization for series, the renormalized values being encoded in the expectation of a certain random variable on the set of natural numbers. We identify a large class of weakly renormalizable…
Let $\eta_t$ be a Poisson point process with intensity measure $t\mu$, $t>0$, over a Borel space $\mathbb{X}$, where $\mu$ is a fixed measure. Another point process $\xi_t$ on the real line is constructed by applying a symmetric function…
The aim of the paper is to introduce a two-parameter family of infinite-dimensional diffusion processes X(alpha,theta) related to Pitman's two-parameter Poisson-Dirichlet distributions PD(alpha,theta). The diffusions X(alpha,theta) are…
We consider a finite sequence of random points in a finite domain of a finite-dimensional Euclidean space. The points are sequentially allocated in the domain according to a model of cooperative sequential adsorption. The main peculiarity…
We develop nonparametric Bayesian modelling approaches for Poisson processes, using weighted combinations of structured beta densities to represent the point process intensity function. For a regular spatial domain, such as the unit square,…
We prove a multidimensional Poisson limit theorem in free probability, and define joint free Poisson distributions in a non-commutative probability space. We define (compound) free Poisson process explicitly, similar to the definitions of…
Dirichlet process mixtures are flexible non-parametric models, particularly suited to density estimation and probabilistic clustering. In this work we study the posterior distribution induced by Dirichlet process mixtures as the sample size…
We revisit the discrete additive and multiplicative coalescents, starting with $n$ particles with unit mass. These cases are known to be related to some "combinatorial coalescent processes": a time reversal of a fragmentation of Cayley…
The purpose of this paper is to estimate the intensity of a Poisson process $N$ by using thresholding rules. In this paper, the intensity, defined as the derivative of the mean measure of $N$ with respect to $ndx$ where $n$ is a fixed…
Let $P^{\left(\frac 12\right)}(n)$ denote the middle prime factor of $n$ (taking into account multiplicity). More generally, one can consider, for any $\alpha \in (0,1)$, the $\alpha$-positioned prime factor of $n$, $P^{(\alpha)}(n)$. It…
