We consider a version of the secretary problem where elements may vanish during the selection and become unchoosable. We construct a selection strategy and identify the probability to select the best element, which turns out to be asymptotically maximal as number of elements increases indefinitely. As an auxiliary result of independent interest we establish large deviation probability estimates for sums of independent variables with distinct geometric distribution.

Consider a complete graph $K_n$ where the edges have costs given by independent random variables, each distributed uniformly between 0 and 1. The cost of the minimum spanning tree in this graph is a random variable which has been the subject of much study. This note considers the large deviation probability of this random variable. Previous work has shown that the log-probability of deviation by $\varepsilon$ is $-\Omega(n)$, and that for the log-probability of $Z$ exceeding $\zeta(3)$ this bound is correct; $\log {\rm Pr}[Z \geq \zeta(3) + \varepsilon] = -\Theta(n)$. The purpose of this note is to provide a simple proof that the scaling of the lower tail is also linear, $\log {\rm Pr}[Z \leq \zeta(3) - \varepsilon] = -\Theta(n)$.

If {Xn: 1 ≦ n < ∞} are independent, identically distributed random variables having E(X1) = 0 and Var(X1) = 1, the most elementary form of the central limit theorem implies that P(n-½Sn≧ zn) → 0 as n → ∞, where Sn = Σnk=1 X,k, for all sequences {zn:1 ≧ n gt; ∞} for which zn → ∞. The probability P(n-½ Sn ≧ zn) is called a “large deviation probability”, and the rate at which it converges to 0 has been the subject of much study. The objective of the present article is to complement earlier results by describing its asymptotic behavior when n-½zn → ∞ as n → ∞, in the case of absolutely continuous random variables having moment-generating functions.

Abstract We investigate the concept of orbital free entropy from the viewpoint of the matrix liberation process. We will show that many basic questions around the definition of orbital free entropy are reduced to the question of full large deviation principle for the matrix liberation process. We will also obtain a large deviation upper bound for a certain family of random matrices that is essential to define the orbital free entropy. The resulting rate function is made up into a new approach to free mutual information.
