We present analogues of the Poisson limit distribution for the noncommutative bm-independence, which is associated with several positive symmetric cones. We construct related discrete Fock spaces with creation, annihilation and conservation…

If $\alpha,\beta>0$ are distinct and if $A$ and $B$ are independent non-degenerate positive random variables such that $$S=\tfrac{1}{B}\,\tfrac{\beta A+B}{\alpha A+B}\quad \mbox{and}\quad T=\tfrac{1}{A}\,\tfrac{\beta A+B}{\alpha A+B} $$ are…

In discrete contexts such as the degree distribution for a graph, \emph{scale-free} has traditionally been \emph{defined} to be \emph{power-law}. We propose a reasonable interpretation of \emph{scale-free}, namely, invariance under the…

We give the exact distribution of the average of n independent beta random variables weighted by the selected cuts of (0, 1) by the order statistics of a random sample of size n-1 from the uniform distribution U(0,1), for each n. A new…

Building on the work of Arizmendi and Celestino (2021), we derive the $*$-distributions of polynomials in monotone independent and infinitesimally monotone independent elements. For non-zero complex numbers $\alpha$ and $\beta$, we derive…

We define a new independence in non-commutative probability, called $\alpha$-freeness, with respect to a triplet of states. This concept unifies several independences in non-commutative probability, in particular, free, monotone,…

Consider $d+2$ i.i.d. random points $X_1,\ldots, X_{d+2}$ in $\mathbb R^d$. In this note, we compute the probability that their convex hull is a simplex focusing on three specific distributional settings: (i) the distribution of $X_1$ is…

In this paper, we use a notion of ratio based on a division algorithm, to extend to a symmetric cone the definition of a continued fraction in its more general form. We then give a criteria of convergence of a non ordinary random continued…

Set-valued quantiles for multivariate distributions with respect to a general convex cone are introduced which are based on a family of (univariate) distribution functions rather than on the joint distribution function. It is shown that…

The tails of the distribution of a mean zero, variance $\sigma^2$ random variable $Y$ satisfy concentration of measure inequalities of the form $\mathbb{P}(Y \ge t) \le \exp(-B(t))$ for $$ B(t)=\frac{t^2}{2( \sigma^2 + ct)} \quad \mbox{for…

In the paper we study characterizations of probability measures in free probability. By constancy of regressions for random variable $\V(\I-\U)\V$ given by $\V\U\V$, where $\U$ and $\V$ are free, we characterize free Poisson and free…

The $\alpha$-stable distributions introduced by L\'evy play an important role in probabilistic theoretical studies and their various applications, e.g., in statistical physics, life sciences, and economics. In the present paper we study…

Measuring the concentration of random variables is a fundamental concept in probability and statistics. Here, we explore a type of concentration measure for continuous random variables with bounded support and use it to provide a notion of…

A random dense countable set is characterized (in distribution) by independence and stationarity. Two examples are `Brownian local minima' and `unordered infinite sample'. They are identically distributed; the former ad hoc proof of this…

Kotlarski (1978) proved a result on identification of the distributions of independent random variables $X,Y$ and $Z$ from the joint distribution of the bivariate random vector $(U,V)$ where $(U,V)= (\max(X,Z),\max(Y,Z)).$ We extend this…

A transformation group approach to the prior for the parameters of the beta distribution is suggested which accounts for finite sets of data by imposing a limit to the range of parameter values under consideration. The relationship between…

We compute analytically, for large N, the probability distribution of the number of positive eigenvalues (the index N_{+}) of a random NxN matrix belonging to Gaussian orthogonal (\beta=1), unitary (\beta=2) or symplectic (\beta=4)…

For real $a>0$, let $X_a$ denote a random variable with the gamma distribution with parameters $a$ and $1$. Then $\mathsf P(X_a-a>c)$ is increasing in $a$ for each real $c\ge0$; non-increasing in $a$ for each real $c\le-1/3$; and…

For testing two random vectors for independence, we consider testing whether the distance of one vector from a center point is independent from the distance of the other vector from a center point by a univariate test. In this paper we…

Let $X$, $B$ and $Y$ be three Dirichlet, Bernoulli and beta independent random variables such that $X\sim \mathcal{D}(a_0,...,a_d),$ such that $\Pr(B=(0,...,0,1,0,...,0))=a_i/a$ with $a=\sum_{i=0}^da_i$ and such that $Y\sim \beta(1,a).$ We…
