We solve the problem of counting the total number of observable targets (persons, vehicles, etc.) in a region based on local counts performed by sensors which measure only the number of targets nearby and neither their identities nor any positional information. This theory is robust and accommodates ad hoc sensor networks and mobile robot sensors alike. Comments Reprinted from: Robert Ghrist, Y...

We discuss CLT for the global and local linear statistics of random matrices from classical compact groups. The main part of our proofs are certain combinatorial identities much in the spirit of works by Kac and Spohn.

A large number of results in analysis of algorithms contain fluctuations. A typical result might read “The expected number of . . . for large n behaves like log2 n + constant + delta(log2 n), where delta(x) is a periodic function of period one and mean zero.” Examples include various trie parameters, approximate counting, probabilistic counting, radix exchange sort, leader election, skip lists,...
