Mixture distributions arise in many parametric and non-parametric settings -- for example, in Gaussian mixture models and in non-parametric estimation. It is often necessary to compute the entropy of a mixture, but, in most cases, this…

We investigate supersymmetric models where neither R-parity nor lepton number nor baryon number is imposed. The full high energy theory has an exact horizontal U(1) symmetry that is spontaneously broken. Quarks and Higgs fields carry…

We give a survey on the concept of Poissonian pair correlation (PPC) of sequences in the unit interval, on existing and recent results and we state a list of open problems. Moreover, we present and discuss a quite recent multi-dimensional…

At large distances and in the low temperature phase, the quenched correlation functions in the 2d random phase sine-Gordon model have been argued to be of the form~: $ \bar {\vev{~[\varphi(x)-\varphi(0)]^2~}}_* = A (\log|x|) + B \ep^2…

We investigate spectral correlations in quasi one-dimensional Anderson insulators with broken time-reversal symmetry. While energy levels are uncorrelated in the thermodynamic limit of infinite wire-length, some correlations remain in…

In a geometrical approach to gravity the metric and the (gravitational) connection can be independent and one deals with metric-affine theories. We construct the most general action of metric-affine effective field theories, including a…

Hierarchical autocorrelation in the error term of linear models arises when sampling units are related to each other according to a tree. The residual covariance is parametrized using the tree-distance between sampling units. When…

For fixed $\alpha \in [0,1]$, consider the set $S_{\alpha,N}$ of dilated squares $\alpha, 4\alpha, 9\alpha, \dots, N^2\alpha \, $ modulo $1$. Rudnick and Sarnak conjectured that for Lebesgue almost all such $\alpha$ the gap-distribution of…

The well-known reflection coupling gives a maximal coupling of two one-dimensional Brownian motions with different starting points. Nevertheless, the reflection coupling does not generalize to more than two Brownian motions. In this paper,…

For $K$ a cubic field with only one real embedding and $\alpha,\beta\in K$, we show how to construct an increasing sequence $\{m_n\}$ of positive integers and a subsequence $\{\psi_n\}$ such that (for some constructible constants…

We introduce the maximal correlation coefficient $R(M_1,M_2)$ between two noncommutative probability subspaces $M_1$ and $M_2$ and show that the maximal correlation coefficient between the sub-algebras generated by $s_n:=x_1+\ldots +x_n$…

The Khintchine recurrence theorem asserts that on a measure preserving system, for every set $A$ and $\varepsilon>0$, we have $\mu(A\cap T^{-n}A)\geq \mu(A)^2-\varepsilon$ for infinitely many $n\in \mathbb{N}$. We show that there are…

We report on recent results that show that the pair correlation function of systems with exponentially decaying interactions can fail to exhibit Ornstein-Zernike asymptotics at all sufficiently high temperatures and all sufficiently small…

Very few works exist to date on development of a consistent energy-based coupling of atomistic and continuum models of materials in more than one dimension. The difficulty in constructing such a coupling consists in defining a coupled…

We investigate the relation between $\delta$ and $\epsilon$ required for obtaining a $(1+\delta)$-approximation in time $N^{2-\epsilon}$ for closest pair problems under various distance metrics, and for other related problems in…

We study f(R,T) theories of gravity, where T is the trace of the energy-momentum tensor T_{\mu\nu}, with independent metric and affine connection (metric-affine theories). We find that the resulting field equations share a close resemblance…

Inflationary models with power-law potentials are starting to be severely constrained by the recent measurements of Cosmic Microwave Background anisotropies provided by the Planck Satellite and by the BICEP2 telescope. In particular, models…

This article presents, in an illustrative fashion, a first step towards an extension of the spectral theory of constant length substitutions. Our starting point is the general observation that the symbolic picture (as defined by the…

Motivated by the home-field advantage in sports, we propose a generalized Bradley--Terry model that incorporates covariate information for paired comparisons. It has an $n$-dimensional merit parameter $\bs{\beta}$ and a fixed-dimensional…

In this paper we discuss metric theory associated with the affine (inhomogeneous) linear forms in the so called doubly metric settings within the classical and the mixed setups. We consider the system of affine forms given by $\qq\mapsto…
