SUMMARY:Random Fibonacci Words
LOCATION:Hill 705
DESCRIPTION:Date: 03/12/2025Speaker: Leonid Petrov (https://lpetrov.cc/) (Virginia)\nTi
 tle: Random Fibonacci Words\nAbstract: Fibonacci words are words of 1's and
  2's, graded by the total sum of the digits. They form a differential poset
  YF which is an estranged cousin of the Young lattice powering irreducible 
 representations of the symmetric group. We introduce families of "coherent"
  measures on YF depending on many parameters, which come from the theory of
  clone Schur functions (Okada 1994). We characterize parameter sequences en
 suring positivity of the measures, and we describe the large-scale behavior
  of some ensembles of random Fibonacci words. The subject has connections t
 o total positivity of tridiagonal matrices, Stieltjes moment sequences, ort
 hogonal polynomials from the (q-)Askey scheme, and residual allocation (sti
 ck-breaking) models. \n
