This paper presents a mistake in work function algorithm of k-server conjecture. That is, the monotonicity of the work function is not always true.

We consider a random walk $S_k$ with i.i.d. steps on a compact group equipped with a bi-invariant metric. We prove quantitative ergodic theorems for the sum $\sum_{k=1}^N f(S_k)$ with H\"older continuous test functions $f$, including the…

The purpose of this note is to give an affirmative answer to a conjecture appearing in [Integral Transforms Spec. Funct. 26 (2015) 90-95].

Consider continuous-time random walks on Cayley graphs where the rate assigned to each edge depends only on the corresponding generator. We show that the limiting speed is monotone increasing in the rates for infinite Cayley graphs that…

We investigate polyharmonic functions associated to Brownian motion and random walks in cones. These are functions which cancel some power of the usual Laplacian in the continuous setting and of the discrete Laplacian in the discrete…

In this paper we consider finitary symmetric random walks on groups. We construct new possible asymptotics for the drift. We show that the drift can be very close to linear ant yet sublinear. We also give estimates for entropy growth of…

In the preprint of 1993 the author formulated some conjectures on monotonicity of ratios for exponential series remainders. They are equivalent to conjectures on monotonicity of a ratio of Kummer hypergeometric functions and presumably not…

We construct a simple acyclic directed graph for which the Bunkbed Conjecture is false, thereby resolving conjectures posed by Leander and by Hollom.

We prove that under a symmetry assumption all cocycles on Hopf *-algebras arise from generating functionals. This extends earlier results of R.Vergnioux and D.Kyed and has two quantum group applications: all quantum L\'evy processes with…

We provide a sharp monotonicity theorem about the distribution of subharmonic functions on manifolds, which can be regarded as a new, measure theoretic form of the uncertainty principle. As an illustration of the scope of this result, we…

The multiplicative structure of the trivial symplectic groupoid over $\mathbb R^d$ associated to the zero Poisson structure can be expressed in terms of a generating function. We address the problem of deforming such a generating function…

We study two new families of symmetric functions arising from a species-theoretic construction motivated by cycle structure. For each partition of $n$, we define two combinatorial species that decompose into molecules indexed by the same…

We consider the symmetric binary perceptron model, a simple model of neural networks that has gathered significant attention in the statistical physics, information theory and probability theory communities, with recent connections made to…

In the first part of the paper, we study conformal groups that act properly discontinuously and cocompactly on simply connected, non-flat homogeneous plane waves. We show that proper cocompact similarity actions that are not isometric can…

Dini's Theorem guarantees that a monotone sequence of continuous functions converges pointwise on a compact interval to a continuous limit that converges uniformly. In this paper, we establish new theorems generalizing Dini's result by…

We introduce and study the Weingarten calculus for centered random permutation matrices in the symmetric group S_N. After presenting a formulation of the Weingarten calculus on the symmetric group, we derive a formula in the centered case,…

We bound the rate of convergence to uniformity for certain random walks on the complete monomial groups G \wr S_n for any group G. These results provide rates of convergence for random walks on a number of groups of interest: the…

We verify a finiteness conjecture of Feit on sources of simple modules over group algebras for various classes of finite groups related to the symmetric groups.

Models of spatially homogeneous walks in the quarter plane ${\bf Z}_+^{2}$ with steps taken from a subset $\mathcal{S}$ of the set of jumps to the eight nearest neighbors are considered. The generating function $(x,y,z)\mapsto Q(x,y;z)$ of…

We prove the following version of the Furstenberg-Zimmer structure theorem for stationary actions: Any stationary action of a locally compact second-countable group is a weakly mixing extension of a measure-preserving distal system.
