We prove a spectral gap inequality for the stochastic exchange model studied by Gaspard and Gilbert and by Grigo, Khanin and Sz\'asz in connection with understanding heat conduction in a deterministic billiards model. The bound on the…

In this paper we consider the stochastic dynamics of a finite system of particles in a finite volume (Kac-like particle system) which annihilate with probability $\alpha \in (0,1)$ or collide elastically with probability $1-\alpha$. We…

Quantum trajectories are Markov processes modeling the evolution of a quantum system subjected to repeated independent measurements. Inspired by the theory of random products of matrices, it has been shown that these Markov processes admit…

The spectral properties of interacting strongly chaotic systems are investigated for growing interaction strength. A very sensitive transition from Poisson statistics to that of random matrix theory is found. We introduce a new random…

We explore static noise in a discrete quantum random walk over a homogeneous cyclic graph, focusing on spectral and dynamical properties. Using a three-parameter unitary coin, we control the spectral structure of the noiseless step operator…

Particle interactions are key elements of many dynamical systems. In the context of systems described by a Boltzmann equation, such interactions may be described by a collision integral, a multidimensional integral over the momentum-phase…

We show that the spectral gap for the interchange process (and the symmetric exclusion process) in a $d$-dimensional box of side length $L$ is asymptotic to $\pi^2/L^2$. This gives more evidence in favor of Aldous's conjecture that in any…

We define the co-spectral radius of inclusions $\mathcal{S}\leq \mathcal{R}$ of discrete, probability measure-preserving equivalence relations, as the sampling exponent of a generating random walk on the ambient relation. The co-spectral…
