摘要:We consider a one-dimensional simple random walk surviving among a field of static soft obstacles: each time it meets an obstacle the walk is killed with probability 1 - e(-beta), where beta is a positive and fixed parameter. The positions of the obstacles are sampled independently from the walk and according to a renewal process. The increments between consecutive obstacles, or gaps, are assumed to have a power-law decaying tail with exponent gamma > 0. We prove convergence in law for the pro...

摘要:In this paper, we established the Freidlin-Wentzell-type large deviation principles for first-order scalar conservation laws perturbed by small multiplicative noise. Due to the lack of the viscous terms in the stochastic equations, the kinetic solution to the Cauchy problem for these first-order conservation laws is studied. Then, based on the well-posedness of the kinetic solutions, we show that the large deviations holds by utilising the weak convergence approach.

摘要:We present some applications of central limit theorems on mesoscopic scales for random matrices. When combined with the recent theory of homogenization for Dyson Brownian motion, this yields the universality of quantities which depend on the behavior of single eigenvalues of Wigner matrices and beta-ensembles. Among the results we obtain are the Gaussian fluctuations of single eigenvalues for Wigner matrices (without an assumption of 4 matching moments) and classical beta-ensembles (beta = 1, ...

摘要:We consider a random walker in a dynamic random environment given by a system of independent discrete-time simple symmetric random walks. We obtain ballisticity results under two types of perturbations: low particle density, and strong local drift on particles. Surprisingly, the random walker may behave very differently depending on whether the underlying environment particles perform lazy or nonlazy random walks, which is related to a notion of permeability of the system. We also provide a st...

摘要:Consider the motion of a Brownian particle in three dimensions, whose two spatial coordinates are standard Brownian motions with zero drift, and the remaining (unknown) spatial coordinate is a standard Brownian motion with a (known) nonzero drift. Given that the position of the Brownian particle is being observed in real time, the problem is to detect as soon as possible and with minimal probabilities of the wrong terminal decisions, which spatial coordinate has the nonzero drift. We solve thi...

摘要:This is the second, and last paper in which we address the behavior of oriented first passage percolation on the hypercube in the limit of large dimensions. We prove here that the extremal process converges to a Cox process with exponential intensity. This entails, in particular, that the first passage time converges weakly to a random shift of the Gumbel distribution. The random shift, which has an explicit, universal distribution related to modified Bessel functions of the second kind, is th...

摘要:We study two kinetically constrained models in a quenched random environment. The first model is a mixed threshold Fredrickson-Andersen model on Z(2), where the update threshold is either 1 or 2. The second is a mixture of the Fredrickson-Andersen 1-spin facilitated constraint and the North-East constraint in Z(2). We compare three time scales related to these models-the bootstrap percolation time for emptying the origin, the relaxation time of the kinetically constrained model, and the time f...

摘要:We consider the statistical inverse problem of estimating a background fluid flow field v from the partial, noisy observations of the concentration theta of a substance passively advected by the fluid, so that theta is governed by the partial differential equation partial derivative/partial derivative(t )theta (t, x) = - v(x) . del theta(t, x) + kappa Delta theta(t, x), theta(0, x) =theta(0)(x) for t is an element of [0, T], T > 0 and x is an element of T-2 = [0, 1](2). The initial condition t...

摘要:The aim of this paper is to develop a general method for constructing approximation schemes for viscosity solutions of fully nonlinear pathwise stochastic partial differential equations, and for proving their convergence. Our results apply to approximations such as explicit finite difference schemes and Trotter-Kato type mixing formulas. The irregular time dependence disrupts the usual methods from the classical viscosity theory for creating schemes that are both monotone and convergent, an ob...

摘要:In this paper we characterize the distribution of the first exit time from an arbitrary open set for a class of semi-Markov processes obtained as time-changed Markov processes. We estimate the asymptotic behaviour of the survival function (for large t) and of the distribution function (for small t) and we provide some conditions for absolute continuity. We have been inspired by a problem of neurophyshiology and our results are particularly usefull in this field, precisely for the so-called Lea...
