Let G be a finite additive abelian group with exponent exp(G)=n>1 and let A be a nonempty subset of {1,...,n-1}. In this paper, we investigate the smallest positive integer $m$, denoted by s_A(G), such that any sequence {c_i}_{i=1}^m with…

We prove that if two additive functions (from a certain class) take large values with roughly the same probability then they must be identical. The Kac-Kubilius model suggests that the distribution of values of a given additive function can…

We study a symmetric generalization $\mathfrak{p}^{(N)}_k(\eta, \alpha)$ of the binomial distribution recently introduced by Bergeron et al, where $\eta \in [0,1]$ denotes the win probability, and $\alpha$ is a positive parameter. This…

In this paper we show that if $A$ is a subset of the primes with positive relative density $\delta$, then $A+A$ must have positive upper density $C_1\delta e^{-C_2(\log(1/\delta))^{2/3}(\log\log(1/\delta))^{1/3}}$ in $\mathbb{N}$. Our…

Let $S$ be a finite set of pairwise coprime positive integers and $Ax^2+Bx$ be an integer valued polynomial with $A> B\ge 0$. For integers $k\ge 1$ and $n\ge 0$, the coefficients $\gamma_{S,A,B}^k (n)$ are defined as \begin{align*}…

We consider a critical superprocess $\{X;\mathbf P_\mu\}$ with general spatial motion and spatially dependent stable branching mechanism with lowest stable index $\gamma_0 > 1$. We first show that, under some conditions, $\mathbf…

The phenomenon of superconvergence is proved for all freely infinitely divisible distributions. Precisely, suppose that the partial sums of a sequence of free identically distributed, infinitesimal random variables converge in distribution…

Given an integer $k\ge2$, let $\omega_k(n)$ denote the number of primes that divide $n$ with multiplicity exactly $k$. We compute the density $e_{k,m}$ of those integers $n$ for which $\omega_k(n)=m$ for every integer $m\ge0$. We also show…

An equivalent condition for the product of elements of an independent random sample on a compact algebraic group converging in distribution to some random variable as the sample size increases is obtained. Namely, a limit distribution…

The linear-fractional Galton-Watson processes is a well known case when many characteristics of a branching process can be computed explicitly. In this paper we extend the two-parameter linear-fractional family to a much richer…

A probability distribution is n-divisible if its nth convolution root exists. While modeling the dependence structure between several (re)insurance losses by an additive risk factor model, the infinite divisibility, that is the…

Given an integer $a\ge 1$, a function $f: \mathbb{R}\to \mathbb{R}$ is said to be $a$-subadditive if $$ f(ax+y) \le af(x)+f(y) \,\,\,\text{ for all }x,y \in \mathbb{R}. $$ Of course, $1$-subadditive functions (which correspond to ordinary…

Let $s_a(n)$ denote the sum of digits of an integer $n$ in the base $a$ expansion. Answering, in a extended form, a question of Deshouillers, Habsieger, Laishram, and Landreau, we show that, provided $a$ and $b$ are multiplicatively…

Let $(u_n)_{n \ge 0}$ be a nondegenerate Lucas sequence and $g_u(n)$ be the arithmetic function defined by $\gcd(n, u_n).$ Recent studies have investigated the distributional characteristics of $g_u$. Numerous results have been proven based…

We prove a central limit theorem for the joint distribution of $s_q(A_jn)$, $1\le j \le d$, where $s_q$ denotes the sum-of-digits function in base~$q$ and the $A_j$'s are positive integers relatively prime to $q$. We do this in fact within…

We define two families of expansions of $(\mathbb{Z},+,0)$ by unary predicates, and prove that their theories are superstable of $U$-rank $\omega$. The first family consists of expansions $(\mathbb{Z},+,0,A)$, where $A$ is an infinite…

We consider Gibbs distributions, which are families of probability distributions over a discrete space $\Omega$ with probability mass function of the form $\mu^\Omega_\beta(\omega) \propto e^{\beta H(\omega)}$ for $\beta$ in an interval…

Consider a branching process $\{Z_n\}_{n\ge 0}$ with immigration in varying environment. For $a\in\{0,1,2,...\},$ let $C=\{n\ge0:Z_n=a\}$ be the collection of times at which the population size of the process attains level $a.$ We give a…

We show that the distribution of large values of an additive function on the integers, and the distribution of values of the additive function on the primes are related to each other via a Levy Process. As a consequence we obtain a converse…

We study the distribution of large prime factors of a random element $u$ of arithmetic sequences satisfying simple regularity and equidistribution properties. We show that if such an arithmetic sequence has level of distribution $1$ the…
