Let $\eta_t$ be a Poisson point process of intensity $t\geq 1$ on some state space $\Y$ and $f$ be a non-negative symmetric function on $\Y^k$ for some $k\geq 1$. Applying $f$ to all $k$-tuples of distinct points of $\eta_t$ generates a…
We consider the one-dimensional squared Bessel process given by the stochastic differential equation (SDE) \begin{align*} dX_t = 1\,dt + 2\sqrt{X_t}\,dW_t, \quad X_0=x_0, \quad t\in[0,1], \end{align*} and study strong (pathwise)…
Consider $n+m$ nonintersecting Brownian bridges, with $n$ of them leaving from 0 at time $t=-1$ and returning to 0 at time $t=1$, while the $m$ remaining ones (wanderers) go from $m$ points $a_i$ to $m$ points $b_i$. First, we keep $m$…
We study Bessel and Dunkl processes $(X_{t,k})_{t\ge0}$ on $\mathbb R^N$ with possibly multivariate coupling constants $k\ge0$. These processes describe interacting particle systems of Calogero-Moser-Sutherland type with $N$ particles. For…

This paper is a step in the direction of understanding the behavior of non-intersecting Brownian motions on the real line, when the number of particles becomes large. Consider 2k non-intersecting Brownian motions, all starting at the…
Let $s$ be a source point and $t$ be a destination point inside an $n$-vertex simple polygon $P$. Euclidean shortest paths and minimum-link paths between $s$ and $t$ inside $P$ have been well studied. Both these kinds of paths are simple…
Various applications of graphs, in particular applications related to finding shortest paths, naturally get inputs with real weights on the edges. However, for algorithmic or visualization reasons, inputs with integer weights would often be…
Let $X$ be a regular one-dimensional transient diffusion and $L^y$ be its local time at $y$. The stochastic differential equation (SDE) whose solution corresponds to the process $X$ conditioned on $[L^y_{\infty}=a]$ for a given $a\geq 0$ is…
Multivariate Bessel processes, otherwise known as radial Dunkl processes, are stochastic processes defined in a Weyl chamber that are repelled from the latter's boundary by a singular drift with a strength given by the multiplicity function…

It is shown that Hermite polynomials satisfy a Bessel type orthogonality relation, based on the zeros of a single index Hermite polynomial and with a finite integration interval. Because of the role of non-symmetric zeros in the final…
Bordered and framed Toeplitz/Hankel determinants have the same structure as Toeplitz/Hankel determinants except in small number of matrix rows and/or columns. We review these structured determinants and their connections to orthogonal…
