The present paper is concerned with some self-interacting diffusions $(X_t,t\geq 0)$ living on $\mathbb{R}^d$. These diffusions are solutions to stochastic differential equations: $$\mathrm{d}X_t = \mathrm{d}B_t - g(t)\nabla V(X_t -…
Let $M$ be a compact Riemannian manifold. A {\em self-interacting diffusion} on $M$ is a stochastic process solution to $$dX_t = dW_t(X_t) - \frac{1}{t}(\int_0^t \nabla V_{X_s}(X_t)ds)dt$$ where $\{W_t\}$ is a Brownian vector field on $M$…
We consider a self-interacting diffusion $X$ on a smooth compact Riemannian manifold $\mathbb M$, described by the stochastic differential equation \[ dX_t = \sqrt{2} dW_t(X_t)- \beta(t) \nabla V_t(X_t)dt, \] where $\beta$ is suitably…
Self-interacting diffusions are solutions to SDEs with a drift term depending on the process and its normalized occupation measure $\mu_t$ (via an interaction potential and a confinement potential). We establish a relation between the…
We prove the consistency of an adaptive importance sampling strategy based on biasing the potential energy function $V$ of a diffusion process $dX_t^0=-\nabla V(X_t^0)dt+dW_t$; for the sake of simplicity, periodic boundary conditions are…
Self-interacting diffusions are processes living on a compact Riemannian manifold defined by a stochastic differential equation with a drift term depending on the past empirical measure of the process. The asymptotics of this measure is…
This paper proves almost-sure convergence for the self-attracting diffusion on the unit sphere $$dX(t)=\sigma dW_{t}(X(t))-a\int_{0}^{t}\nabla_{\mathbb{S}^n}V_{X_s}(X_t) dsdt,\qquad X(0)=x\in\mathbb{S}^n $$ %given by the stochastic…
In this paper we consider ergodic optimal control of a diffusion process $\{X^u_t\}_{t \geq 0}$, taking values in $\bR^n$, where both drift and volatility are controlled. We establish a novel strong duality between the existence of a unique…
Heterogeneous diffusion processes can be well described by an overdamped Langevin equation with space-dependent diffusivity $D(x)$. We investigate the ergodic and non-ergodic behavior of these processes in an arbitrary potential well $U(x)$…
We study the ergodic behaviour of a discrete-time process $X$ which is a Markov chain in a stationary random environment. The laws of $X_t$ are shown to converge to a limiting law in (weighted) total variation distance as $t\to\infty$.…
In this paper, we study ergodic backward stochastic differential equations (EBSDEs for short), for which the underlying diffusion is assumed to be multiplicative and of at most linear growth. The fact that the forward process has an…
In this article, we study the ergodic risk-sensitive control problem for controlled regime-switching diffusions. Under a blanket stability hypothesis, we solve the associated nonlinear eigenvalue problem for weakly coupled systems and…
We present recent results about the asymptotic behavior of ergodic products of isometries of a metric space X. If we assume that the displacement is integrable, then either there is a sublinear diffusion or there is, for almost every…
We study small perturbations of diffusion processes in $\mathbb{R}^d$ that leave invariant a finite collection of hypersurfaces. Each surface is assumed to be repelling for the unperturbed process, and the unperturbed motion on each of the…
Bellman equations of ergodic type related to risk-sensitive control are considered. We treat the case that the nonlinear term is positive quadratic form on first-order partial derivatives of solution, which includes linear exponential…
The purpose of this paper is to investigate the long time behaviour for a self-interacting diffusion and a self-interacting velocity jump process. While the diffusion case has already been studied for some particular potential function, the…
We consider the Fast Diffusion Equation $u_t=\Delta u^m$ posed in a bounded smooth domain $\Omega\subset \RR^d$ with homogeneous Dirichlet conditions; the exponent range is $m_s=(d-2)_+/(d+2)<m<1$. It is known that bounded positive…
For a differential equation with interaction, we investigate its ergodic properties. We apply the obtained results to study the limiting behavior of braid invariants associated with the flow of solutions.
Diffusion with stochastic resetting is a paradigm of resetting processes. Standard renewal or master equation approach are typically used to study steady state and other transport properties such as average, mean squared displacement etc.…
In earlier papers Poisson equation in the whole space was studied for so called ergodic generators $L$ corresponding to homogeneous Markov diffusions ($X_t, \, t\ge 0$) in $\mathbb R^d$. Solving this equation is one of the main tools for…
