For iid $d$-dimensional observations $X^{(1)}, X^{(2)}, \ldots$ with independent Exponential$(1)$ coordinates, consider the boundary (relative to the closed positive orthant), or "frontier", $F_n$ of the closed Pareto record-setting (RS)…

Given a sequence of independent random vectors taking values in ${\mathbb R}^d$ and having common continuous distribution function $F$, say that the $n^{\rm \scriptsize th}$ observation sets a (Pareto) record if it is not dominated (in…

Let $\mu$ be a probability measure with an infinite compact support on $\mathbb{R}$. Let us further assume that $(F_n)_{n=1}^\infty$ is a sequence of orthogonal polynomials for $\mu$ where $(f_n)_{n=1}^\infty$ is a sequence of nonlinear…

The aim of this paper is twofold: On one hand we discuss an abstract approach to symmetrized Fredholm perturbation determinants and an associated trace formula for a pair of operators of positive-type, extending a classical trace formula.…

For $d \geq 2$ and i.i.d. $d$-dimensional observations $\mathbf{X}^{(1)}, \mathbf{X}^{(2)}, \ldots$ with independent Exponential$(1)$ coordinates, let $\varphi_n$ denote the minimum $\ell^1$-norm among the maxima of $\{\mathbf{X}^{(1)},…

Consider $n$ real/complex, independent/dependent random variables with respective tail bounds and $g$ a measurable function of the r.v.'s. Consider $f$ the "sharpest" tail bound of $g$ (sharpest in the sense that if $f$ were any less, then…

Let $d\ge3$ and $\mathbb{F}_q^{\,d}$ be the $d$-dimensional vector space over a finite field of order $q$, where $q$ is an odd prime power. Let $X_\pi$ be the set of lines through the origin intersecting the slice $\pi\cap S^{d-1}$, where…

In multi-objective optimization, the set of optimal trade-offs -- the Pareto front -- often contains regions that are extremely steep or flat. The Pareto optimal points in these regions are typically of limited interest for decision-making,…

We study how a countable algebraic root set passes to a fractal connectedness locus. Let $D_n=\{-n+1,-n+2,\ldots,n-1\}$, and let $R_n$ be the set of roots of monic polynomials whose non-leading coefficients lie in $D_n$. We study…

Consider an optimization problem with $n$ binary variables and $d+1$ linear objective functions. Each valid solution $x \in \{0,1\}^n$ gives rise to an objective vector in $\R^{d+1}$, and one often wants to enumerate the Pareto optima among…

We propose new estimates for the frontier of a set of points. They are defined as kernel estimates covering all the points and whose associated support is of smallest surface. The estimates are written as linear combinatio- ns of kernel…

Consider an expander graph in which a $\mu$ fraction of the vertices are marked. A random walk starts at a uniform vertex and at each step continues to a random neighbor. Gillman showed in 1993 that the number of marked vertices seen in a…

Resonances of Schr\"odinger Hamiltonians with point interactions are considered. The main object under the study is the resonance free region under the assumption that the centers, where the point interactions are located, are known and the…

An N-parameter Brownian sheet in R^d maps a non-random compact set F in R^N_+ to the random compact set B(F) in \R^d. We prove two results on the image-set B(F): (1) It has positive d-dimensional Lebesgue measure if and only if F has…

The (weak) Nullstellensatz over finite fields says that if $P_1,\ldots,P_m$ are $n$-variate degree-$d$ polynomials with no common zero over a finite field $\mathbb{F}$ then there are polynomials $R_1,\ldots,R_m$ such that…

We study a surprising phenomenon in which Feynman integrals in $D=4-2\varepsilon$ space-time dimensions as $\varepsilon \to 0$ can be fully characterized by their behavior in the opposite limit, $\varepsilon \to \infty$. More concretely, we…

Estimation of the extreme value index under right censoring is a fundamental problem in extreme value theory, with important applications in finance, insurance, and reliability. Classical integral estimators for Pareto-type tails typically…

Polarization calibration of interferometric observations is a costly procedure and, in some cases (e.g., a limited coverage of parallactic angle for the calibrator), it may not be possible to be performed. To avoid this worst-case scenario…

We review recent advances in the theory of trapped fermions using techniques borrowed from random matrix theory (RMT) and, more generally, from the theory of determinantal point processes. In the presence of a trap, and in the limit of a…

We study gapped boundaries characterized by "fermionic condensates" in 2+1 d topological order. Mathematically, each of these condensates can be described by a super commutative Frobenius algebra. We systematically obtain the species of…
