We show that the canonical involution on a nonabelian poly-orderable group G extends to the Hughes-free division ring of fractions D of the group algebra k[G] of G over a field k and that, with respect to this involution, D contains a pair…
Pitman's theorem states that if {Bt, t $\ge$ 0} is a one-dimensional Brownian motion, then {Bt -- 2 inf s$\le$t Bs, t $\ge$ 0} is a three dimensional Bessel process, i.e. a Brownian motion conditioned in Doob sense to remain forever…
We prove an integration by parts formula on the law of the reflecting Brownian motion $X:=|B|$ in the positive half line, where $B$ is a standard Brownian motion. In other terms, we consider a perturbation of $X$ of the form $X^\epsilon =…
A new extension of the sub-fractional Brownian motion, and thus of the Brownian motion, is introduced. It is a linear combination of a finite number of sub-fractional Brownian motions, that we have chosen to call the mixed sub-fractional…
We show that for all positive beta the semigroups of beta-Dyson Brownian motions of different dimensions are intertwined. The proof relates beta-Dyson Brownian motions directly to Jack symmetric polynomials and omits an approximation of the…
We study unimodality for free multiplicative convolution with free normal distributions $\{\lambda_t\}_{t>0}$ on the unit circle. We give four results on unimodality for $\mu\boxtimes\lambda_t$: (1) if $\mu$ is a symmetric unimodal…
Consider a system of infinitely many Brownian particles on the real line. At any moment, these particles can be ranked from the bottom upward. Each particle moves as a Brownian motion with drift and diffusion coefficients depending on its…
We consider the free additive convolution semigroup $\lbrace \mu^{\boxplus t}:\,t\ge 1\rbrace$ and determine the local behavior of the density of $\mu^{\boxplus t}$ at the endpoints and at any singular point of its support. We then study…
We construct Dyson Brownian motion for $\beta \in (0,\infty]$ by adapting the extrinsic construction of Brownian motion on Riemannian manifolds to the geometry of group orbits within the space of Hermitian matrices. When $\beta$ is…
We investigate the motility of a growing population of cells in a idealized setting: we consider a system of hard disks in which new particles are added according to prescribed growth kinetics, thereby dynamically changing the number…
We give an analytical approach to the definition of additive and multiplicative free convolutions which is based on the theory of Nevanlinna and of Schur functions. We consider the set of probability distributions as a semigroup $\bold M$…
We establish an integration by parts formula for the semi-group in time $T > 0$ of the kinetic Brownian motion in the Euclidean plane together with its speed in the circle. The stochastic differential equation of our kinetic Brownian motion…
We prove a conjecture of Lalley and Sellke [Ann. Probab. 15 (1987)] asserting that the empirical (time-averaged) distribution function of the maximum of branching Brownian motion converges almost surely to a double exponential, or Gumbel,…
Dynamical phase transitions (DPTs) arise from qualitative changes in the long-time behavior of stochastic trajectories, often observed in systems with kinetic constraints or driven out of equilibrium. Here we demonstrate that first-order…
We study the dynamics of a Brownian quantum particle hopping on an infinite lattice with a spin degree of freedom. This particle is coupled to free boson gases via a translation-invariant Hamiltonian which is linear in the creation and…
For every natural number k we introduce the notion of k-th order convolution of functions on abelian groups. We study the group of convolution preserving automorphisms of function algebras in the limit. It turns out that such groups have…
Consider a time-varying collection of n points on the positive real axis, modeled as exponentials of n Brownian motions whose drift vector at every time point is determined by the relative ranks of the coordinate processes at that time. If…
The present material addresses several problems left open in the Trans. AMS paper " Non-crossing cumulants of type B" of P. Biane, F. Goodman and A. Nica. The main result is that a type B non-commutative probability space can be studied in…
The real trees form a class of metric spaces that extends the class of trees with edge lengths by allowing behavior such as infinite total edge length and vertices with infinite branching degree. We use Dirichlet form methods to construct…
Finite free convolutions, $\boxplus_d$ and $\boxtimes_d$, are binary operations on polynomials of degree $d$ that are central to finite free probability, a developing field at the intersection of free probability and the geometry of…
