In the present paper, we introduce so-called operator-stable-like processes. Roughly speaking, they behave locally like operator-stable processes, but they need not to be homogenous in space. Having shown existence for this class of…
Condensation phenomena in non-equilibrium systems have been modeled by the zero-range process, which is a model of particles hopping between boxes with Markovian dynamics. In many cases, memory effects in the dynamics cannot be neglected.…
In many applications, the common assumption that a driving noise process affecting a system is independent or Markovian may not be realistic, but the noise process may be assumed to be stationary. To study such problems, this paper…
Stochastic processes that are randomly reset to an initial condition serve as a showcase to investigate non-equilibrium steady states. However, all existing results have been restricted to the special case of memoryless resetting protocols.…

Recovering a low-complexity signal from its noisy observations by regularization methods is a cornerstone of inverse problems and compressed sensing. Stable recovery ensures that the original signal can be approximated linearly by optimal…
This paper introduces and studies the notion of output-input stability, which represents a variant of the minimum-phase property for general smooth nonlinear control systems. The definition of output-input stability does not rely on a…
