摘要:We prove the first explicit rate of convergence to the Tracy-Widom distribution for the fluctuation of the largest eigenvalue of sample covariance matrices that are not integrable. Our primary focus is matrices of type X*X and the proof follows the Erdos-Schlein-Yau dynamical method. We use a recent approach to the analysis of the Dyson Brownian motion from (J. Eur. Math. Soc. (JEMS) 24 (2022) 2823-2873) to obtain a quantitative error estimate for the local relaxation flow at the edge. Togethe...

摘要:We analyse the cluster discovered by invasion percolation on a branching process with a power-law offspring distribution. Invasion percolation is a paradigm model of self-organised criticality, where criticality is approach without tuning any parameter. By performing invasion percolation for n steps, and letting n -> infinity, we find an infinite subtree, called the invasion percolation cluster (IPC). A notable feature of the IPC is its geometry that consists of a unique path to infinity (also...

摘要:We consider a long-range percolation graph on Z(d) where, in addition to the nearest-neighbor edges of Z(d) , distinct x,y is an element of Z(d) are connected by an edge independently with probability asymptotic to beta|x - y|(-s), for s is an element of (d, 2 d) , beta > 0 and |center dot| a norm on R-d. We first show that, for all but perhaps a countably many beta > 0, the graph-theoretical (a.k.a. chemical) distance between typical vertices at |center dot|-distance r is, with high probabili...

摘要:The maximum likelihood threshold (MLT) of a graph G is the minimum number of samples to almost surely guarantee existence of the maximum likelihood estimate in the corresponding Gaussian graphical model. We give a new characterization of the MLT in terms of rigidity-theoretic properties of G and use this characterization to give new combinatorial lower bounds on the MLT of any graph. We use the new lower bounds to give high-probability guarantees on the maximum likelihood thresholds of sparse ...

摘要:In this paper we quantify the rate of convergence in Selberg's central limit theorem for log |zeta (1/2 + it)| based on the method of proof given by the same rate of convergence of (log log log T )2/root log log T as Selberg in (In 1989) Univ (1992) 367-385) in the Kolmogorov distance by using the Dudley distance instead. We also prove the theorem for the multivariate case given by same rate of convergence as in the single variable case.

摘要:This paper is concerned with the evolution dynamics of local times ofa spectrally positive stable process in the spatial direction. The main resultsstate that conditioned on the finiteness of the first time at which the local timeat zero exceeds a given value, the local times at positive half line are equal indistribution to the unique solution of a stochastic Volterra equation driven bya Poisson random measure whose intensity coincides with the L & eacute;vy measure.This helps us to provide n...

摘要:Ancestral sequence reconstruction is a key task in computational biology. It consists in inferring a molecular sequence at an ancestral species of a known phylogeny, given descendant sequences at the tip of the tree. In addition to its many biological applications, it has played a key role in elucidating the statistical performance of phylogeny estimation methods. Here we establish a formal connection to another important bioinformatics problem, multiple sequence alignment, where one attempts ...

摘要:Motivated by alignment of correlated sparse random graphs, we introduce a hypothesis testing problem of deciding whether or not two random trees are correlated. We study the likelihood ratio test and obtain sufficient conditions under which this task is impossible or feasible. We propose MPAlign, a message-passing algorithm for graph alignment inspired by the tree correlation detection problem. We prove MPAlign to succeed in polynomial time at partial alignment whenever tree detection is feasi...

摘要:The excursion set of a C2 smooth random field carries relevant information in its various geometric measures. From a computational viewpoint, one never has access to the continuous observation of the excursion set, but rather to observations at discrete points in space. It has been reported that for specific regular lattices of points in dimensions 2 and 3, the usual approximation of the surface area of the excursions does not converge when the lattice becomes dense in the domain of observatio...
