摘要:Let f(i), i = 1, n, be copies of a random variable f and let N be an Orlicz function. We show that for every x is an element of R-n the expectation Eparallel to(x(i)f(i))(i=1)(n)parallel to(N) is maximal (up to an absolute constant) if f(i), i = 1,...,n, are independent. In that case we show that the expectation Eparallel to(x(i) f(i))(i = 1)(n)parallel to(N) is equivalent to parallel toxparallel to(M), for some Orlicz function M depending on N and on distribution of f only. We provide applica...

摘要:We consider nonconservative, reversible spin systems, with unbounded discrete spins. We show that for a class of these dynamics in a high temperature regime, the relative entropy with respect to the equilibrium distribution decays exponentially in time, although the logarithmic-Sobolev inequality fails. To this end we prove a weaker modification of the logarithmic-Sobolev inequality.

摘要:We study a pair of populations in R-2 which undergo diffusion and branching. The system is interactive in that the branching rate of each type is proportional to the local density of the other type. For a diffusion rate sufficiently large compared with the branching rate, the model is constructed as the unique pair of finite measure-valued processes which satisfy a martingale problem involving the collision local time of the solutions. The processes are shown to have densities at fixed times w...

摘要:We consider the way sets are dispersed by the action of stochastic flows derived from martingale fields. Under fairly general continuity and ellipticity conditions, the following dichotomy result is shown: any nontrivial connected set X either contracts to a point under the action of the flow, or its diameter grows linearly in time, with speed at least a positive deterministic constant Lambda. The linear growth may further be identified (again, almost surely), with a much stronger behavior, wh...

摘要:A typical feature of the long time behavior of continuous super-Brownian motion in a stable catalytic medium is the development of large mass clumps (or clusters) at spatially rare sites. We describe this phenomenon by means of a functional limit theorem under renormalization. The limiting process is a Poisson point field of mass clumps with no spatial motion component and with infinite variance. The mass of each cluster evolves independently according to a non-Markovian continuous process tra...

摘要:In this paper, we give a probabilistic interpretation of a viscous scalar conservation law in a bounded interval thanks to a nonlinear martingale problem. The underlying nonlinear stochastic process is reflected at the boundary to take into account the Dirichlet conditions. After proving uniqueness for the martingale problem, we show existence thanks to a propagation of chaos result. Indeed we exhibit a system of N interacting particles, the empirical measure of which converges to the unique s...

摘要:Let {X-i; i greater than or equal to 1}, {Y-i; i > 1}, {U, U-i; i > 1} and {V, V-i; i greater than or equal to 1} be four i.i.d. sequences of random variables. Suppose U and V are uniformly distributed on [0, 1](3). For each realization of {U-j; 1 less than or equal to j less than or equal to n}, {X-i,X-p; 1 less than or equal to p less than or equal to n} is constructed as a certain permutation of {X-p; 1 less than or equal to p less than or equal to n} for any 1 less than or equal to i less ...

摘要:We equip the intersection of p independent Brownian paths in R-d, d greater than or equal to 2, with the natural measure l defined by projecting the intersection local time measure via one of the Brownian motions onto the set of intersection points. Given a bounded domain U subset of R-d we show that, as a up arrow infinity, the probability of the event {l(U) > a} decays with an exponential rate of a(1)/ptheta, where theta is described in terms of a variational problem. In the important specia...
