Stein's method for the Poisson-Dirichlet distribution and the Ewens Sampling Formula, with applications to Wright-Fisher models

Han L. Gan, Nathan Ross

We provide a general theorem bounding the error in the approximation of a random measure of interest--for example, the empirical population measure of types in a Wright-Fisher mode…

Exponential and Laplace approximation for occupation statistics of branching random walk

Erol Peköz, Adrian Röllin, Nathan Ross

We study occupancy counts for the critical nearest-neighbor branching random walk on the -dimensional lattice, conditioned on non-extinction. For , Lalley and Zheng (20…

Local limit theorems for occupancy models

A. D. Barbour, Peter Braunsteins, Nathan Ross

We present a rather general method for proving local limit theorems, with a good rate of convergence, for sums of dependent random variables. The method is applicable when a Stein…

The Probability of Intransitivity in Dice and Close Elections

Jan Hązła, Elchanan Mossel, Nathan Ross +1

We study the phenomenon of intransitivity in models of dice and voting. First, we follow a recent thread of research for -sided dice with pairwise ordering induced by the probab…

Central moment inequalities using Stein's method

A. D. Barbour, Nathan Ross, Yuting Wen

We derive explicit central moment inequalities for random variables that admit a Stein coupling, such as exchangeable pairs, size--bias couplings or local dependence, among others.…

Error bounds in local limit theorems using Stein's method

A. D. Barbour, Adrian Röllin, Nathan Ross

We provide a general result for bounding the difference between point probabilities of integer supported distributions and the translated Poisson distribution, a convenient alterna…
