A central limit theorem for a card shuffling problem

Journal Article Journal of Combinatorial Theory. Series A · August 1, 2025 Given a positive integer n, consider a permutation of n objects chosen uniformly at random. In this permutation, we collect maximal subsequences consisting of consecutive numbers arranged in ascending order called blocks. Each block is then merged, and aft ... Full text Cite

Information geometry and alpha-parallel prior of the beta-logistic distribution

Journal Article Communications in Statistics - Theory and Methods · January 1, 2025 The hyperbolic secant distribution has several generalizations with applications in, for example, finance. In this study, we explore the dual geometric structure of one such generalization: the beta-logistic distribution. Within this family, two special ca ... Full text Cite

Multi-headed lattices and Green functions

Journal Article Journal of Physics A: Mathematical and Theoretical · November 15, 2024 Lattice geometries and random walks on them are of great interest for their applications in different fields such as physics, chemistry, and computer science. In this work, we focus on multi-headed lattices and study properties of the Green functions for t ... Full text Cite
