In this thesis, which is supervised by Dr. David Penman, we examine random interval graphs. Recall that such a graph is defined by letting $X_{1},\ldots X_{n},Y_{1},\ldots Y_{n}$ be $2n$ independent random variables, with uniform…

Mazucheli et al. (2019) introduced the unit-Gompertz (UG) distribution and studied some of its properties. More specifically, they considered the random variable X =exp(-Y), where Y has the Gompertz distribution. In this paper, we consider…

We prove that, for any jointly stable random variables $X_1, \dots, X_k$ with zero mean, any $m<k,$ and any even continuous positive definite functions $f$ and $g$ on $\Bbb R^m$ and $\Bbb R^{k-m},$ the random variables $f(X_1,\dots,X_m)$…

Kagan and Shalaevski 1967 have shown that if the random variables $X_1,\dots,X_n$ are independent and identically distributed and the distribution of $\sum_{i=1}^n(X_i+a_i)^2$ $a_i\in \mathbb{R}$ depends only on $\sum_{i=1}^na_i^2$ , then…

Given random variables $X$ and $Y$ having finite moments of all orders, their uncorrelatedness set is defined as the set of all pairs $(j,k)\in{\mathbb N}^2,$ for which $X^j$ and $Y^k$ are uncorrelated. It is known that, broadly put, any…

\cite{HillMotegi2017} present a new general asymptotic theory for the maximum of a random array $\{\mathcal{X}_{n}(i)$ $:$ $1$ $\leq $ $i$ $\leq $ $\mathcal{L}\}_{n\geq 1}$, where each $\mathcal{X}_{n}(i)$ is assumed to converge in…

A collection of $n$ random events is said to be $(n - 1)$-wise independent if any $n - 1$ events among them are mutually independent. We characterise all probability measures with respect to which $n$ random events are $(n - 1)$-wise…

Suppose $V$ is an $n$-element set where for each $x \in V$, the elements of $V \setminus \{x\}$ are ranked by their similarity to $x$. The $K$-nearest neighbor graph is a directed graph including an arc from each $x$ to the $K$ points of $V…

Let $f\in \mathbb{R}[x_1,\ldots, x_k]$, for $k\ge 2$. For any finite sets $A_1,\ldots, A_k\subset \mathbb{R}$, consider the set $$ f(A_1,\ldots, A_k):=\{f(a_1,\ldots, a_k)\mid (a_1,\cdots,a_k)\in A_1\times\cdots \times A_k\}, $$ that is,…

Let X^{(k)}(t) = (X_1(t), ..., X_k(t)) denote a k-vector of i.i.d. random variables, each taking the values 1 or 0 with respective probabilities p and 1-p. As a process indexed by non-negative t, $X^{(k)}(t)$ is constructed--following…

The $k$-gonal models of random groups are defined as the quotients of free groups on $n$ generators by cyclically reduced words of length $k$. As $k$ tends to infinity, this model approaches the Gromov density model. In this paper we show…

We obtain robust and computationally efficient estimators for learning several linear models that achieve statistically optimal convergence rate under minimal distributional assumptions. Concretely, we assume our data is drawn from a…

We study the extremes of a sequence of random variables $(R_n)$ defined by the recurrence $R_n=M_nR_{n-1}+q$, $n\ge1$, where $R_0$ is arbitrary, $(M_n)$ are iid copies of a non--degenerate random variable $M$, $0\le M\le1$, and $q>0$ is a…

We extend Friedman's theorem to show that, for any fixed $r>1$, a random $2r$--regular Schreier graph associated with the action of $r$ uniformly random permutations of $[n]$ on $k_{n}$--tuples of distinct elements in $[n]$ has a…

For every integer $k\geq 2$ let $[k]^{<\mathbb{N}}$ be the set of all words over $k$, that is, all finite sequences having values in $[k]:=\{1,...,k\}$. A Carlson-Simpson tree of $[k]^{<\mathbb{N}}$ of dimension $m\geq 1$ is a subset of…

This paper is concerned with a rate-distortion theory for sequences of i.i.d. random variables with general distribution supported on general sets including manifolds and fractal sets. Manifold structures are prevalent in data science,…

Limit theorems for non-additive probabilities or non-linear expectations are challenging issues which have raised progressive interest recently. The purpose of this paper is to study the strong law of large numbers and the law of the…

Let $X_0$ be a non-constant random variable with finite variance. Given an integer $k\ge2$, define a sequence $\{X_n\}_{n=1}^\infty$ of approximately linear recursions with small perturbations $\{\Delta_n\}_{n=0}^\infty$ by $$X_{n+1} =…

Let $\mathbf X$ be a random matrix whose pairs of entries $X_{jk}$ and $X_{kj}$ are correlated and vectors $ (X_{jk},X_{kj})$, for $1\le j<k\le n$, are mutually independent. Assume that the diagonal entries are independent from off-diagonal…

For constant $r$ and arbitrary $n$, it was known that in the graph $K_r^n$ any independent set of size close to the maximum is close to some independent set of maximum size. We prove that this statement holds for arbitrary $r$ and $n$.
