摘要：We consider an interacting random walk on Z (d) where particles interact only at times when a particle jumps to a site at which there are at least n - 1 other particles present. If there are i greater than or equal to n - 1 particles present, then the particle coalesces (is removed from the system) with probability ci and annihilates (is removed along with another particle) with probability ai. We call this process the n-threshold randomly coalescing and annihilating random walk. We show that,...

摘要：We consider the lattice version of the free field in two dimensions (also called harmonic crystal). The main aim of the paper is to discuss quantitatively the entropic repulsion of the random surface in the presence of a hard wall. The basic ingredient of the proof is the analysis of the maximum of the field which requires a multiscale analysis reducing the problem essentially to a problem on a field with a tree structure.

摘要：We present a probabilistic approach for the study of systems with exclusions in the regime traditionally studied via cluster-expansion methods. In this paper we focus on its application for the gases of Peierls contours found in the study of the Ising model at low temperatures, but most of the results are general. We realize the equilibrium measure as the invariant measure of a loss network process whose existence is ensured by a subcriticality condition of a dominant branching process. In thi...

摘要：Consider a process X(.) = {X(t), 0 less than or equal to t less than or equal to infinity) with values in the interval I = (0, 1), absorption at the boundary points of I, and dynamics dX(t) =beta(t) dt + sigma(t) dW(t), X(0) = x. The values beta(t), sigma(t)) are selected by a controller from a subset of 91 x (0, infinity) that depends on the current position X(t), for every t greater than or equal to 0. At any stopping rule tau of his choice, a second player, called a stopper, can halt the ev...

摘要：We consider a random walk on Sn-1, the standard sphere of dimension n -1, generated by random rotations on randomly selected coordinate planes i, j with 1 less than or equal to i < j less than or equal to n. This dynamic was used by Marc Kac as a model for the spatially homogeneous Boltzmann equation. We prove that the spectral gap on Sn-1 is n(-1) up to a constant independent of n.

摘要：Let t > 0, K be a connected compact Lie group equipped with an Ad(K) - invariant inner product on the Lie Algebra of K. Associated to this data are two measures mu (0)(t) and nu (0)(t) on L(K) - the space of continuous loops based at e is an element of K. The measure mu (0)(t) is pinned Wiener measure with variance t while the measure nu (0)(t) is a heat kernel measure on L(K). The measure mu (0)(t) is constructed using a K - valued Brownian motion while the measure nu (0)(t) is constructed us...

摘要：Let D be the interior of a parabola in R-2 and T (D) the first exit time of Brownian motion from D. We show - log P(T-D > t) behaves like t(1/3) as t --> infinity.

摘要：The structure of extreme value distributions in infinite-dimensional space is well known. We characterize the domain of attraction of such extreme-value distributions in the framework of Gine Hahn and Vatan. We intend to use the result for statistical applications.

摘要：We give a reformulation of majorizing measures that does not involve measures, but rather special sequences of partitions. This formulation is more convenient to perform chaining with different distances.

摘要：We prove that, with probability 1, eventually there are no more than three favorite (i.e., most visited) sites of simple symmetric random walks. This partially answers a relatively longstanding question of Erdos and Revesz.
