AbstractWe study negative association for mixed sampled point processes and show that negative association holds for such processes if a random number of their points fulfils the ultra log-concave (ULC) property. We connect the negative association property of point processes with directionally convex dependence ordering, and show some consequences of this property for mixed sampled and determinantal point processes. Some applications illustrate the general theory.

Abstract We prove the Bernoulli property for determinantal point processes on $ \mathbb{R}^d $ with translation-invariant kernels. For the determinantal point processes on $ \mathbb{Z}^d $ with translation-invariant kernels, the Bernoulli property was proved by Lyons and Steif [Stationary determinantal processes: phase multiplicity, bernoullicity, and domination. Duke Math. J.120 (2003), 515–575] and Shirai and Takahashi [Random point fields associated with certain Fredholm determinants II: fermion shifts and their ergodic properties. Ann. Probab.31 (2003), 1533–1564]. We prove its continuum version. For this purpose, we also prove the Bernoulli property for the tree representations of the determinantal point processes.

AbstractFor a determinantal point process (DPP) X with a kernel K whose spectrum is strictly less than one, André Goldman has established a coupling to its reduced Palm process $X^u$ at a point u with $K(u,u)>0$ so that, almost surely, $X^u$ is obtained by removing a finite number of points from X. We sharpen this result, assuming weaker conditions and establishing that $X^u$ can be obtained by removing at most one point from X, where we specify the distribution of the difference $\xi_u: = X\setminus X^u$. This is used to discuss the degree of repulsiveness in DPPs in terms of $\xi_u$, including Ginibre point processes and other specific parametric models for DPPs.

Sampling Schemes

Determinantal point processes (DPPs) were introduced by Macchi (Macchi 1975 Adv. Appl. Probab. 7 , 83–122) as a model for repulsive (fermionic) particle distributions. But their recent popularization is largely due to their usefulness for encouraging diversity in the final stage of a recommender system (Kulesza & Taskar 2012 Found. Trends Mach. Learn. 5 , 123–286). The standard sampling scheme for finite DPPs is a spectral decomposition followed by an equivalent of a randomly diagonally pivoted Cholesky factorization of an orthogonal projection, which is only applicable to Hermitian kernels and has an expensive set-up cost. Researchers Launay et al. 2018 ( http://arxiv.org/abs/1802.08429 ); Chen & Zhang 2018 NeurIPS ( https://papers.nips.cc/paper/7805-fast-greedy-map-inference-for-determinantal-point-process-to-improve-recommendation-diversity.pdf ) have begun to connect DPP sampling to LDL H factorizations as a means of avoiding the initial spectral decomposition, but existing approaches have only outperformed the spectral decomposition approach in special circumstances, where the number of kept modes is a small percentage of the ground set size. This article proves that trivial modifications of LU and LDL H factorizations yield efficient direct sampling schemes for non-Hermitian and Hermitian DPP kernels, respectively. Furthermore, it is experimentally shown that even dynamically scheduled, shared-memory parallelizations of high-performance dense and sparse-direct factorizations can be trivially modified to yield DPP sampling schemes with essentially identical performance. The software developed as part of this research, Catamari ( hodgestar.com/catamari ) is released under the Mozilla Public License v.2.0. It contains header-only, C++14 plus OpenMP 4.0 implementations of dense and sparse-direct, Hermitian and non-Hermitian DPP samplers. This article is part of a discussion meeting issue ‘Numerical algorithms for high-performance computational science’.
