We recall that $\sum_{n=0}^{+\infty} \frac{(-1)^n}{(2n+1)^{2k+1}} = \frac{\pi^{2k+1}}{2^{2k+2}(2k)!} E_{2k}$ where $E_{2k} = v^{(2k)}(0)$ and $v(x) = \frac{1}{\cos(x)}$. We also recall that $E(g(X)) = \sum_{n=0}^{+\infty} \frac{(-1)^n}{(2n+1)^s}$ for a random variable $X$ following the zeta distribution with parameter $s > 1$, and $g(n) = r_1(n) - r_3(n)$.
Calculate $E(g(X))$ when $X$ is a random variable following the zeta distribution with parameter 3 then with parameter 5.

We assume that the random variables $X_{ij}$ are uniformly bounded: $\exists K \in \mathbb{R} \; \forall (i,j) \in (\mathbb{N}^{\star})^{2} \; |X_{ij}| \leqslant K$.
Let $k$ be a natural integer. Justify that the random variable $\sum_{i=1}^{n} \Lambda_{i,n}^{k}$ admits an expectation and that $$\mathbb{E}\left(\frac{1}{n} \sum_{i=1}^{n} \Lambda_{i,n}^{k}\right) = \frac{1}{n^{1+k/2}} \mathbb{E}\left(\operatorname{tr}\left(M_{n}^{k}\right)\right) = \frac{1}{n^{1+k/2}} \sum_{(i_{1},\ldots,i_{k}) \in \llbracket 1,n \rrbracket^{k}} \mathbb{E}\left(X_{i_{1}i_{2}} X_{i_{2}i_{3}} \cdots X_{i_{k-1}i_{k}} X_{i_{k}i_{1}}\right).$$

We fix $\boldsymbol{x}, \boldsymbol{y} \in \mathscr{E}_{d}^{n}(\mathbb{R})$. Show that if $V_{n}(\boldsymbol{x}) = \frac{1}{n} \sum_{i=1}^{n} |\boldsymbol{x}_{i} - \overline{\boldsymbol{x}}|^{2}$ and $V_{n}(\boldsymbol{y}) = \frac{1}{n} \sum_{i=1}^{n} |\boldsymbol{y}_{i} - \overline{\boldsymbol{y}}|^{2}$ then $$\delta(\boldsymbol{x}, \boldsymbol{y})^{2} = nV_{n}(\boldsymbol{x}) + nV_{n}(\boldsymbol{y}) - 2\sup_{R \in \mathrm{SO}_{d}(\mathbb{R})} \langle Z(\boldsymbol{x}, \boldsymbol{y}), R \rangle$$ where $Z(\boldsymbol{x}, \boldsymbol{y})$ is a matrix that we will specify.
