Convergence of the Fourth Moment and Infinite Divisibility

In this note we prove that, for infinitely divisible laws, convergence of the fourth moment to 3 is sufficient to ensure convergence in law to the Gaussian distribution. Our results include infinitely divisible measures with respect to classical, free, Boolean and monotone convolution. A similar criterion is proved for compound Poissons with jump distribution supported on a finite number of atoms. In particular, this generalizes recent results of Nourdin and Poly.Comment: 10 page

Enumeration of strong dichotomy patterns

We apply the version of P\'{o}lya-Redfield theory obtained by White to count patterns with a given automorphism group to the enumeration of strong dichotomy patterns, that is, we count bicolor patterns of $\mathbb{Z}_{2k}$ with respect to the action of \Aff(\mathbb{Z}_{2k}) and with trivial isotropy group. As a byproduct, a conjectural instance of phenomenon similar to cyclic sieving for special cases of these combinatorial objects is proposed.Comment: Some errors and unclear sentences had been correcte

Antichains and counterpoint dichotomies

We construct a special type of antichain (i. e., a family of subsets of a set, such that no subset is contained in another) using group-theoretical considerations, and obtain an upper bound on the cardinality of such an antichain. We apply the result to bound the number of strong counterpoint dichotomies up to affine isomorphisms
