A collector samples coupons with replacement from a pool containing $g$ \textit{uniform} groups of coupons, where "uniform group" means that all coupons in the group are equally likely to occur. For each $j = 1, \dots, g$ let $T_j$ be the number of t

The origin of power-law behavior (also known variously as Zipf’s law) has been a topic of debate in the scientific community for more than a century. Power laws appear widely in physics, biology, earth and planetary sciences, economics and finance,

We consider a Markov chain on the positive odd integers, which can be viewed as a stochastic version of the Collatz 3 x + 1 Problem. We show that, no matter its initial value, the chain visits 1 infinitely often. Its values, however, are unbounded.

□ We calculate the asymptotics of the moments as well as the limiting distribution (after the appropriate normalization) of the maximum of independent, not identically distributed, geometric random variables. In many cases, the limit distribution t

We consider the following variant of the classic collector's problem: The family of coupon probabilities is the mixing of two subfamilies one of which is the \textit{uniform} family, while the other belongs to the well known \textit{Zipf family}. We

Suppose n (fair) dice each having m faces marked with numbers 1 to m, are thrown at random. The problem of determining the number of ways in which the sum of the numbers exhibited by the dice will be equal to a given number k has a very long history.
The "double Dixie cup problem" of D.J. Newman and L. Shepp (1960) is a well-known variant of the coupon collector's problem, where the object of study is the number $T_{m}(N)$ of coupons that a collector has to buy in order to complete $m$ sets of al

We develop techniques of computing the asymptotics of the moments of the number $T_N$ of coupons that a collector has to buy in order to find all $N$ existing different coupons as $N\rightarrow \infty.$ The probabilities (occurring frequencies) of th

We develop techniques for computing the asymptotics of the first and second moments of the number T N of coupons that a collector has to buy in order to find all N existing different coupons as N → ∞. The probabilities (occurring frequencies) of
