The probability of generating finite and profinite groups
Abstract Famously, every finite simple group G$G$ can be generated by a pair of elements. Moreover, Liebeck and Shalev (1995) proved that the probability that a pair of elements generate G$G$ tends to 1 as |G|→∞$|G| \rightarrow \infty$. In this paper, we generalize this theorem of Liebeck and Shalev. Work of Lucchini and Menegazzo (1997) implies that a

Equidistribution in 2‐nilpotent Polish groups and triple restricted sumsets
Abstract The aim of this paper is to establish a Ratner‐type equidistribution theorem for orbits on homogeneous spaces associated with 2$\hskip.001pt 2$‐nilpotent locally compact Polish groups under the action of a countable discrete abelian group.

Quaternions, Haar Measure and the Estimation of a Palaeomagnetic Rotation
Representing a rotation in three dimensions by a unit tensor quaternion and supposing that the errors in the measurements of a number of vector directions follow Fisher's distribution, the maximum likelihood estimator of a rotation is obtained.

Metric invariance of Haar measure
Let d d be a left invariant metric for a locally compact group G G . We prove that isometric subsets of ( G , d ) (G,d) have equal Haar measure.

Using the quantum probability ranking principle to rank interdependent documents [PDF]
A known limitation of the Probability Ranking Principle (PRP) is that it does not cater for dependence between documents. Recently, the Quantum Probability Ranking Principle (QPRP) has been proposed, which implicitly captures dependencies between ...

Basic elements and problems of probability theory [PDF]
After a brief review of ontic and epistemic descriptions, and of subjective, logical and statistical interpretations of probability, we summarize the traditional axiomatization of calculus of probability in terms of Boolean algebras and its set ...

The characteristic polynomial on compact groups with Haar measure : some equalities in law
This note presents some equalities in law for $Z_N:=\det(\Id-G)$, where $G$ is an element of a subgroup of the set of unitary matrices of size $N$, endowed with its unique probability Haar measure.

Una de las más útiles propiedades de la medida de la integral de Lebesgue es su invarianza bajo traslaciones y rotaciones. Por ejemplo, si a ∈ R n , r ∈ R n×n y f es una función integrable Lebesgue en R n , entonces Z Rn f(x)dx = Z Rn f(rx + a)dx.
