Distribution functions for random variables that depend on a parameter are computed asymptotically for ensembles of positive Hermitian matrices. The inverse Fourier transform of the distribution is shown to be a Fredholm determinant of a…

We study the distribution of the negative Wiener-Hopf factor for a class of two-sided jumps L\'evy processes whose positive jumps have a rational Laplace transform. The positive Wiener-Hopf factor for this class of processes was studied by…

We prove that the law of a random walk $X_n$ is determined by the one-dimensional distributions of $\max(X_n, 0)$ for $n = 1, 2, \ldots$, as conjectured recently by Lo\"ic Chaumont and Ron Doney. Equivalently, the law of $X_n$ is determined…

We consider matrix functions with certain invariance under inversion in the unit circle. If such a function satisfies a positivity assumption on the unit circle, then only zero partial indices appear in its Riemann-Hilbert (Wiener-Hopf)…

Let $\left(\Omega,\Sigma,p\right)$ be a probability measure space and let $X:\Omega\to{\mathbb{R}}^k$ be a (vector valued) random variable. We suppose that the probability $p_X$ induced by $X$ is absolutely continuous with respect to the…

Let $\pi:X\to Y$ be a factor map, where $(X,\sigma_X)$ and $(Y,\sigma_Y)$ are subshifts over finite alphabets. Assume that $X$ satisfies weak specification. Let $\ba=(a_1,a_2)\in \R^2$ with $a_1>0$ and $a_2\geq 0$. Let $f$ be a continuous…

Our construction of the Wiener measure on $\mathfrak{C}$ consists in first defining a set function $\varphi$\ on the class of all compact sets based on certain $n$-dimensional normal distributions, $n = 1,\ 2,\ldots$\ using the structural…

Many important statistical models fall outside classical moment-based methods due to the non-existence of moments or moment generating functions. We propose a generalised probabilistic framework in which densities are replaced by pairs…

Let $X$ be a random variable with distribution function $F,$ and $X_{1},X_{2},...,X_{n}$ are independent copies of $X.$ Consider the order statistics $X_{i:n},$ $i=1,2,...,n$ and denote $F_{i:n}(x)=P\{X_{i:n}\leq x\}.$ Using majorization…

We consider a random field $\phi(\mathbf{r})$ in $d$ dimensions which is largely concentrated around small `hotspots', with `weights', $w_i$. These weights may have a very broad distribution, such that their mean does not exist, or else is…

In the probability theory limit distributions (or probability measures) are often characterized by some convolution equations (factorization properties) rather than by Fourier transforms (the characteristic functionals). In fact, usually…

We generalize the exponential family of probability distributions. In our approach, the exponential function is replaced by a $\varphi$-function, resulting in a $\varphi$-family of probability distributions. We show how $\varphi$-families…

A coarse grained Wigner distribution p_{W}(x,u) obeying positivity derives out of information-theoretic considerations. Let p(x,u) be the unknown joint PDF (probability density function) on position- and momentum fluctuations x,u for a pure…

The method of \emph{random integral representation}, that is, the method of representing a given probability measure as the probability distribution of some random integral, was quite successful in the past few decades. In this note we will…

These notes are devoted to fluctuations of one-dimensional random walks. We discuss various approaches to first-passage times and to the corresponding conditional distributions. After discussion of some classical methods, such as reflection…

We establish a new integral equation for the probability density of the exponential functional of a L\'evy process and provide a three-term (Wiener-Hopf type) factorisation of its law. We explain how these results complement the techniques…

Let $(Y_n)_n$ be a sequence of $\mathbb{R}^d$-valued random variables. Suppose that the generating function \[f(x, z) = \sum_{n = 0}^\infty \varphi_{Y_n}(x) z^n,\] where $\varphi_{Y_n}$ is the characteristic function of $Y_n$, extends to a…

We show that under minimal assumptions on a class of functions $\mathcal{H}$ defined on a probability space $(\mathcal{X},\mu)$, there is a threshold $\Delta_0$ satisfying the following: for every $\Delta\geq\Delta_0$, with probability at…

An infinite sequence $\alpha$ over an alphabet $\Sigma$ is $\mu$-distributed w.r.t. a probability map $\mu$ if, for every finite string $w$, the limiting frequency of $w$ in $\alpha$ exists and equals $\mu(w)$. %We raise the question of how…
