The problem of finding a $k \times k$ submatrix of maximum volume of a matrix $A$ is of interest in a variety of applications. For example, it yields a quasi-best low-rank approximation constructed from the rows and columns of $A$. We show…

A celebrated analogy between prime factorizations of integers and cycle decompositions of permutations is explored here. Asymptotic formulas characterizing semismooth numbers (possessing at most several large factors) carry over to random…

This paper presents the link between stochastic approximation and clinical trials based on randomized urn models investigated in Bai and Hu (1999,2005) and Bai, Hu and Shen (2002). We reformulate the dynamics of both the urn composition and…

We compare dynamical and algebraic properties of semigroups of rational maps. In particular, we show a version of the Day-von Neumann's conjecture and give a partial positive answer to "Sushkievich's problem" for semigroups of rational…

We show that the probability for a finitely generated subgroup of the modular group, of size $n$, to be almost malnormal or non-parabolic, tends to 0 as $n$ tends to infinity -- where the notion of the size of a subgroup is based on a…

For each $n$, let $A_n=(\sigma_{ij})$ be an $n\times n$ deterministic matrix and let $X_n=(X_{ij})$ be an $n\times n$ random matrix with i.i.d. centered entries of unit variance. We study the asymptotic behavior of the empirical spectral…

This paper generalizes the notion of stochastic order to a relation between probability measures over arbitrary measurable spaces. This generalization is motivated by the observation that for the stochastic ordering of two stationary Markov…

We consider semigroups of transformations (partial mappings defined on a set $A$) closed under the set-theoretic intersection of mappings treated as subsets of $A\times A$. On such semigroups we define two relations: the relation of…

Given a basic compact semi-algebraic set $\K\subset\R^n$, we introduce a methodology that generates a sequence converging to the volume of $\K$. This sequence is obtained from optimal values of a hierarchy of either semidefinite or linear…

A central question in random matrix theory is universality. When an emergent phenomena is observed from a large collection of chosen random variables it is natural to ask if this behavior is specific to the chosen random variable or if the…

Extending earlier work on supertropical adjoints and applying symmetrization, we provide a symmetric supertropical version $\operatorname {SLS}_n$ of the special linear group, which we partition into submonoids, based on "quasi-identity"…

We are now witnessing a rapid growth of a new part of group theory which has become known as "statistical group theory". A typical result in this area would say something like ``a random element (or a tuple of elements) of a group G has a…

A generalized numerical semigroup is a submonoid $S$ of $\mathbb{N}^d$ with finite complement in it. We characterize isomorphisms between these monoids in terms of permutation of coordinates. Considering the equivalence relation that…

In this short lecture, we compute asymptotics of orthogonal polynomials, from a saddle point approximation. This is an example of a calculation which shows the link between integrability, algebraic geometry and random matrices.

Assume that $S$ is a semigroup generated by $\{x_1,...,x_n\}$, and let $\Uscr$ be the multiplicative free commutative semigroup generated by $\{u_1,...,u_n\}$. We say that $S$ is of \emph{$I$-typ}e if there is a bijection $v:\Uscr\r S$ such…

In this paper, for $\alpha\in(0,\infty)\setminus\{1\}$, $p>0$ and positive semidefinite matrices $A$ and $B$, we consider the quasi-extension $\mathcal{M}_{\alpha,p}(A,B):=\mathcal{M}_\alpha(A^p,B^p)^{1/p}$ of several $\alpha$-weighted…

We present nonasymptotic concentration inequalities for sums of independent and identically distributed random variables that yield asymptotic strong Gaussian approximations of Koml\'os, Major, and Tusn\'ady (KMT) [1975,1976]. The constants…

Let $S$ be an additively idempotent semiring and $\mathbf{M}_n(S)$ be the semiring of all $n\times n$ matrices over $S$. We characterize the conditions of when the semiring $\mathbf{M}_n(S)$ is congruence-simple provided that the semiring…

It is shown the almost sure convergence and asymptotical normality of a generalization of Kesten's stochastic approximation algorithm for multidimensional case. In this generalization, the step increases or decreases if the scalar product…

Positive semi-definite matrices commonly occur as normal matrices of least squares problems in statistics or as kernel matrices in machine learning and approximation theory. They are typically large and dense. Thus algorithms to solve…
