A Probabilistic Approach to Some Binomial Identities
Elementary proofs abound: simply choose x = y = 1 in the binomial expansion of (x + y). The reader is surely aware of many other proofs, including some combinatorial in nature. At the end of the previous century, the evaluation of these sums was trivialized by the work of H. Wilf and D. Zeilberger [7]. In the preface to the charming book [7], the authors begin with the phrase You’ve been up all...
متن کاملAlternative Probabilistic Systems
The subject of this article is probabilistic systems generalizing the usual− “classical” − probability theory and requiring less information to formulate a probability statement. An important example of such a system is provided by interval-valued probability allowing for ( ) P A = [0.2; 0.3] and similar propositions. While from a theoretical standpoint all empirical knowledge must be of restri...
متن کاملA topological Tits alternative
Let k be a local field, and Γ ≤ GLn(k) a linear group over k. We prove that Γ contains either a relatively open solvable subgroup or a relatively dense free subgroup. This result has applications in dynamics, Riemannian foliations and profinite groups.
متن کاملA Strong Tits Alternative
We show that for every integer d ∈ N, there is N(d) ∈ N such that if K is any field and F is a finite subset of GLd(K), which generates a non amenable subgroup, then F contains two elements, which freely generate a non abelian free subgroup. This improves the original statement of the Tits alternative. It also implies a growth gap and a co-growth gap for non-amenable linear groups, and has cons...
متن کاملA probabilistic alternative to regression suites
Automated regression suites are essential in developing large applications, while maintaining reasonable quality and timetables. Themain argument against the automation of regression suites, in addition to the cost of creation and maintenance, is the observation that if you run the same test many times, it becomes increasingly less likely to find bugs. To alleviate such problems, a new regressi...
