Maximal Probabilities of Convolution Powers of Discrete Uniform Distributions
We prove optimal constant over root n upper bounds for the maximal probabilities of nth convolution powers of discrete uniform distributions. For l, n ∈ N := {1, 2, 3, . . .}, let U∗n l denote the nth convolution power of the discrete uniform distribution Ul := 1 l (δ0+ . . .+δl−1). Let u ∗n l denote the density of U ∗n l with respect to counting measure. Thus, writing 1A(x) := 1 if x ∈ A and 1...
متن کاملOn winning shifts of marked uniform substitutions
The second author introduced with I. Törmä a two-player word-building game [Playing with Subshifts, Fund. Inform. 132 (2014), 131–152]. The game has a predetermined (possibly finite) choice sequence α1, α2, . . . of integers such that on round n the player A chooses a subset Sn of size αn of some fixed finite alphabet and the player B picks a letter from the set Sn. The outcome is determined by...
متن کاملEquilibrium Equivalence under Expected Plurality and Probability of Winning Maximization∗ INCOMPLETE: ONE SECTION MISSING
This paper studies competition between two office-motivated candidates when voters vote probabilistically and candidates maximize expected plurality or they maximize probability of winning. Every symmetric equilibrium under probability of winning is an equilibrium under expected plurality, but the converse hinges on some subtle issues. In a standard model of probabilistic voting, equilibria und...
متن کاملWinning probabilities in a pairwise lottery system with three alternatives
The pairwise lottery system is amultiple round voting procedure which chooses by lot a winner from a pair of alternatives to advance to the next round where in each round the odds of selection are based on each alternative’s majority rule votes. We develop a framework for determining the asymptotic relative likelihood of the lottery selecting in the final round the Borda winner, Condorcet winne...
متن کاملDoes Blue Uniform Color Enhance Winning Probability in Judo Contests?
The color of an athlete's uniform may have an effect on psychological functioning and consequently bias the chances of winning contests in sport competition. Several studies reported a winning bias for judo athletes wearing a blue outfit relative to those wearing a white outfit. However, we argue there is no winning bias and that previous studies were confounded and based on small and specific ...
