It is well understood that if one is given a set $X \subset [0,1]$ of $n$ independent uniformly distributed random variables, then $$ \sup_{0 \leq x \leq 1} \left| \frac{\# X \cap [0,x]}{\# X} - x \right| \lesssim \frac{\sqrt{\log{n}}}{…
This paper studies a machine learning regression problem as a multivariate approximation problem using the framework of the theory of random functions. An ab initio derivation of a regression method is proposed, starting from postulates of…
We consider the problem of uniform sampling of points on an algebraic variety. Specifically, we develop a randomized algorithm that, given a small set of multivariate polynomials over a sufficiently large finite field, produces a common…
Stellar limb darkening affects a wide range of astronomical measurements and is frequently modelled with a parametric model using polynomials in the cosine of the angle between the line of sight and the emergent intensity. Two-parameter…
Let $X$ be a random variable that takes its values in $\frac{1}{q}\mathbb{Z}$, for some integer $q\ge2$, and consider $X$ rounded to an integer, either downwards or upwards or to the nearest integer. We give general formulas for the…
Dini's Theorem guarantees that a monotone sequence of continuous functions converges pointwise on a compact interval to a continuous limit that converges uniformly. In this paper, we establish new theorems generalizing Dini's result by…
If you take a superposition of n IID copies of a point process and thin that by a factor of 1/n, then the resulting process tends to a Poisson point process as n tends to infinity. We give a simple proof of this result that highlights its…
The paper is devoted to discretization of integral norms of functions from a given finite dimensional subspace. Even though this problem is extremely important in applications, its systematic study has begun recently. In this paper we…
We consider smoothing equations of the form $$X ~\stackrel{\mathrm{law}}{=}~ \sum_{j \geq 1} T_j X_j + C$$ where $(C,T_1,T_2,\ldots)$ is a given sequence of random variables and $X_1,X_2,\ldots$ are independent copies of $X$ and independent…
Let $\mathcal{A}=(A_{1},...,A_{n},...)$ be a finite or infinite sequence of $2\times2$ matrices with entries in an integral domain. We show that, except for a very special case, $\mathcal{A}$ is (simultaneously) triangularizable if and only…
A sequence of points $z_k$ in the unit disk is said to be thin for a given decrease function $\rho$, if there is a nontrivial bounded holomorphic function such that the infinite series $\sum_k \rho(1-|z_k|)|f(z_k)|$ converges. All sequences…
The Glivenko--Cantelli theorem is a uniform version of the strong law of large numbers. It states that for every IID sequence of random variables, the empirical measure converges to the underlying distribution (in the sense of uniform…
Let $\xi$ be a random integer vector, having uniform distribution \[\mathbf{P} \{\xi = (i_1,i_2,...,i_n) = 1/n^n \} \ \hbox{for} \ 1 \leq i_1,i_2,...,i_n\leq n.\] A realization $(i_1,i_2,...,i_n)$ of $\xi$ is called \textit{good}, if its…
We apply the operation of random independent thinning on the eigenvalues of $n\times n$ Haar distributed unitary random matrices. We study gap probabilities for the thinned eigenvalues, and we study the statistics of the eigenvalues of…
Given a sequence $(X_n)$ of symmetrical random variables taking values in a Hilbert space, an interesting open problem is to determine the conditions under which the series $\sum_{n=1}^\infty X_n$ is almost surely convergent. For…
The existence of the weak limit as n --> infinity of the uniform measure on rooted triangulations of the sphere with n vertices is proved. Some properties of the limit are studied. In particular, the limit is a probability measure on random…
In this paper we establish lower bounds on information divergence of a distribution on the integers from a Poisson distribution. These lower bounds are tight and in the cases where a rate of convergence in the Law of Thin Numbers can be…
Consider an infinite sequence of independent, uniformly chosen points from $[0,1]^d$. After looking at each point in the sequence, an overseer is allowed to either keep it or reject it, and this choice may depend on the locations of all…
We give a nonstandard analytic proof of de Finetti's theorem for an exchangeable sequence of Bernoulli random variables. The theorem postulates that such a sequence is uniquely representable as a mixture of iid sequences of Bernoulli random…
We study random compositions of transformations having certain uniform fiberwise properties and prove bounds which in combination with other results yield a quenched central limit theorem equipped with a convergence rate, also in the…
