There are several questions one may ask about polynomials $q_m(x)=q_m(x;t)=\sum_{n=0}^mt^mp_n(x)$ attached to a family of orthogonal polynomials $\{p_n(x)\}_{n\ge0}$. In this note we draw attention to the naturalness of this partial-sum…
This paper provides a general framework for Stein's density method for multivariate continuous distributions. The approach associates to any probability density function a canonical operator and Stein class, as well as an infinite…
This article is concerned with the mathematical analysis of a family of adaptive importance sampling algorithms applied to diffusion processes. These methods, referred to as Adaptive Biasing Potential methods, are designed to efficiently…
The purpose of this note is to study asymptotic zero distribution of multivariate random polynomials as their degrees grow. For a smooth weight function with super logarithmic growth at infinity, we consider random linear combinations of…
In this paper, monic polynomials orthogonal with deformation of the Freud-type weight function are considered. These polynomials fullfill linear differential equation with some polynomial coefficients in their holonomic form. The aim of…
A class of discrete distributions can be derived from stationary renewal processes. They have the useful property that the mean is a simple function of the model parameters. Thus regressions of the distribution mean on covariates can be…
Discriminating data classes emanating from sensors is an important problem with many applications in science and technology. We describe a new transform for pattern identification that interprets patterns as probability density functions,…
We present the construction of a theory of distributions (generalized functions) with a ``thick submanifold'', that is, a new theory of thick distributions on $\mathbb{R}^n$ whose domain contains a smooth submanifold on which the test…
We introduce a new class of multivariate heavy-tailed distributions that are convolutions of heterogeneous multivariate t-distributions. Unlike commonly used heavy-tailed distributions, the multivariate convolution-t distributions embody…
This paper presents a study of power series distributions (PSD) with prescribed covariance characteristics. Such distributions constitute a fundamental class in probability theory and mathematical statistics, as they generalize a wide range…
We study the conditional distribution of zeros of a Gaussian system of random polynomials (and more generally, holomorphic sections), given that the polynomials or sections vanish at a point p (or a fixed finite set of points). The…
A theoretical framework is developed to describe the transformation that distributes probability density functions uniformly over space. In one dimension, the cumulative distribution can be used, but does not generalize to higher…
A typical system of k difference (or differential) equations can be compressed, or folded into a difference (or ordinary differential) equation of order k. Such foldings appear in control theory as the canonical forms of the controllability…
We study the distribution of arithmetic invariants associated to Alexander polynomials for certain infinite families of links. The families of links we consider arise from braids on a fixed number of strings. We explore analogies with…
Extended geometric distribution is defined and its mixture is characterized by the property of having completely monotone probability sequence. Also, convolution equations and probability generating functions are used to characterize…
This is an expository article on the Poisson binomial distribution. We review lesser known results and recent progress on this topic, including geometry of polynomials and distribution learning. We also provide examples to illustrate the…
We describe bivariate polynomial sequences orthogonal to a symmetric weight function in terms of several bivariate polynomial sequences orthogonal with respect to Christoffel transformations of the initial weight under a quadratic…
Consider a pair of cumulative distribution functions $F$ and $G$, where $F$ is unknown and $G$ is a known reference distribution. Given a sample from $F$, we propose tests to detect the convexity or the concavity of $G^{-1}\circ F$ versus…
Observed clusters should be modelled by considering the distribution function to be a random variable that quantifies the degree of excitation of the system's normal modes. A system of canonical coordinates for the space of DFs is…
We consider three new classes of exponential dispersion models of discrete probability distributions which are defined by specifying their variance functions in their mean value parameterization. In a previous paper (Bar-Lev and Ridder,…
