The Efron-Stein inequality for identically distributed pairs

Jnaneshwar Baslingker, Bálint Virág

We prove that the classical Efron--Stein inequality holds for independent exchangeable pairs \((X_i,Y_i)\). The same inequality fails for independent identically distributed pairs;…

Palm measures for Dirac operators and the Sine beta process

Benedek Valkó, Bálint Virág

We characterize the Palm measure of the Sine beta process as the eigenvalues of an associated operator with a specific boundary condition.

Large deviations for the interchange process on the interval and incompressible flows

Michał Kotowski, Bálint Virág

We use the framework of permuton processes to show that large deviations of the interchange process are controlled by the Dirichlet energy. This establishes a rigorous connection b…

RSK in last passage percolation: a unified approach

Duncan Dauvergne, Mihai Nica, Bálint Virág

We present a version of the RSK correspondence based on the Pitman transform and geometric considerations. This version unifies ordinary RSK, dual RSK and continuous RSK. We show t…

The scaling limit of the longest increasing subsequence

Duncan Dauvergne, Bálint Virág

We provide a framework for proving convergence to the directed landscape, the central object in the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang universality class. For last passage models, we show that co…

Three-halves variation of geodesics in the directed landscape

Duncan Dauvergne, Sourav Sarkar, Bálint Virág

We show that geodesics in the directed landscape have -variation and that weight functions along the geodesics have cubic variation. We show that the geodesic and its landscap…

The many faces of the stochastic zeta function

Benedek Valkó, Bálint Virág

We introduce a framework to study the random entire function whose zeros are given by the Sine process, the bulk limit of beta ensembles. We present several equivalent ch…

Brownian absolute continuity of the KPZ fixed point with arbitrary initial condition

Sourav Sarkar, Bálint Virág

We show that the law of the KPZ fixed point starting from arbitrary initial condition is absolutely continuous with respect to the law of Brownian motion on every compact inter…

Uniform convergence to the Airy line ensemble

Duncan Dauvergne, Mihai Nica, Bálint Virág

We show that classical integrable models of last passage percolation and the related nonintersecting random walks converge uniformly on compact sets to the Airy line ensemble. Our…

Uniform point variance bounds in classical beta ensembles

Joseph Najnudel, Bálint Virág

In this paper, we give bounds on the variance of the number of points of the circular and the Gaussian ensemble in arcs of the unit circle or intervals of the real line. These…

The bead process for beta ensembles

Joseph Najnudel, Bálint Virág

The bead process introduced by Boutillier is a countable interlacing of the determinantal sine-kernel point processes. We construct the bead process for general sine beta processes…

Bulk properties of the Airy line ensemble

Duncan Dauvergne, Bálint Virág

The Airy line ensemble is a central object in random matrix theory and last passage percolation defined by a determinantal formula. The goal of this paper is to provide a set of to…

The directed landscape

Duncan Dauvergne, Janosch Ortmann, Balint Virag

The conjectured limit of last passage percolation is a scale-invariant, independent, stationary increment process with respect to metric composition. We prove this for Brownian las…

Entropy and expansion

Endre Csóka, Viktor Harangi, Bálint Virág

Shearer's inequality bounds the sum of joint entropies of random variables in terms of the total joint entropy. We give another lower bound for the same sum in terms of the individ…

Circular support in random sorting networks

Duncan Dauvergne, Bálint Virág

A sorting network is a shortest path from to in the Cayley graph of the symmetric group generated by adjacent transpositions. For a uniform random sort…

Operator limit of the circular beta ensemble

Benedek Valkó, Bálint Virág

We provide a precise coupling of the finite circular beta ensembles and their limit process via their operator representations. We prove explicit bounds on the distance of the oper…

The Local Limit of Random Sorting Networks

Omer Angel, Duncan Dauvergne, Alexander E. Holroyd +1

A sorting network is a geodesic path from to in the Cayley graph of generated by adjacent transpositions. For a uniformly random sorting network,…

Spectral measures of factor of i.i.d. processes on vertex-transitive graphs

Ágnes Backhausz, Bálint Virág

We prove that a measure on is the spectral measure of a factor of i.i.d. process on a vertex-transitive infinite graph if and only if it is absolutely continuous with res…

Non-Liouville groups with return probability exponent at most 1/2

Michał Kotowski, Bálint Virág

We construct a finitely generated group without the Liouville property such that the return probability of a random walk satisfies . Re…

Independence ratio and random eigenvectors in transitive graphs

Viktor Harangi, Bálint Virág

A theorem of Hoffman gives an upper bound on the independence ratio of regular graphs in terms of the minimum of the spectrum of the adjacency matrix. To complement this…

The Liouville property for groups acting on rooted trees

Gideon Amir, Omer Angel, Nicolás Matte Bon +1

We show that on groups generated by bounded activity automata, every symmetric, finitely supported probability measure has the Liouville property. More generally we show this for e…

Random walks veering left

Raoul Normand, Bálint Virág

We study coupled random walks in the plane such that, at each step, the walks change direction by a uniform random angle plus an extra deterministic angle θ. We compute the Hausdor…
