This work deals with the overdamped motion of a particle in a fluctuating one-dimensional periodic potential. If the potential has no inversion symmetry and its fluctuations are asymmetric and correlated in time, a net flow can be generated…
This article presents a brief account of Amir O. Caldeira's contributions to the theory of quantum Brownian motion. Motivated by its importance, we outline the description of Brownian motion in the quantum regime following Caldeira's first…
We experimentally investigate the statistical properties of a classical analog of quantum entanglement considering two Brownian particles connected by an elastic force and maintained at different temperatures through separate heat…
It is shown how to construct quantum random walks with particles in an arbitrary faithful normal state. A convergence theorem is obtained for such walks, which demonstrates a thermalisation effect: the limit cocycle obeys a quantum…
We give a simple technic to derive the Berry-Ess\'een bounds for the quadratic variation of the subfractional Brownian motion (subfBm). Our approach has two main ingredients: ($i$) bounding from above the covariance of quadratic variation…
A Wigner-Klein-Kramers equation is proposed, which merges relativistic, quantum and thermo dynamics. The relativistic effect on quantum Brownian motion is studied via the Breit-Fermi Hamiltonian applied into a dissipative Madelung…
We consider two jointly stationary and ergodic random measures $\xi$ and $\eta$ on the real line $\mathbb{R}$ with equal intensities. An allocation is an equivariant random mapping from $\mathbb{R}$ to $\mathbb{R}$. We give sufficient and…
We introduce a class of Markov coalescent processes on the continuous $d$-dimensional torus, in the most general setting of simultaneous multiple mergers, called the Brownian spatial coalescent. It is axiomatically defined through a…
We study limit distributions for random variables defined in terms of coefficients of a power series which is determined by a certain linear functional equation. Our technique combines the method of moments with the kernel method of…
Brownian motion with darning (BMD in abbreviation) is introduced and studied in [4] and [5, Chapter 7]. Roughly speaking, BMD travels across the "darning area" at infinite speed, while it behaves like a regular BM outside of this area. In…
By further developing the generalized $\Gamma$-calculus for hypoelliptic operators, we prove hypocoercive estimates for a large class of Kolmogorov type operators which are defined on non necessarily totally geodesic Riemannian foliations.…
In this work, we re-examine the Goldstein-Ka\c{c} velocity switching model from two points of view. On the one hand, we prove that the forward and backward Chapman-Kolmogorov equations of the stochastic process are Lorentz covariant when…
We examine the dependence of decoherence on the spectral density of the environment as well as on the initial state of the system. We use two simple examples to illustrate some important effects. The simplest derivation of the general form…
Representation of coalescent process using pruning of trees has been used by Goldschmidt and Martin for the Bolthausen-Sznitman coalescent and by Abraham and Delmas for the $\beta(3/2,1/2)$-coalescent. By considering a pruning procedure on…
Anomalous diffusion is frequently described by scaled Brownian motion (SBM), a Gaussian process with a power-law time dependent diffusion coefficient. Its mean squared displacement is $\langle x^2(t)\rangle\simeq\mathscr{K}(t)t$ with…
In this article we continue the study of couplings of subelliptic Brownian motions on the subRiemannian manifolds SU (2) and SL(2, R). Similar to the case of the Heisenberg group, this subelliptic Brownian motion can be considered as a…
We discuss the relationships between some classical representations of the fractional Brownian motion, as a stochastic integral with respect to a standard Brownian motion, or as a series of functions with independent Gaussian coefficients.…
One century after Einstein's work, Brownian Motion still remains both a fundamental open issue and a continous source of inspiration for many areas of natural sciences. We first present a discussion about stochastic and deterministic…
Brownian motion of colloidal particles in the quasi-two-dimensional (qTD) confinement displays distinct kinetic characters from that in bulk. Here we experimentally report a dynamic evolution of Brownian particles in the qTD system. The…
We construct a $K$-rough path above either a space-time or a spatial fractional Brownian motion, in any space dimension $d$. This allows us to provide an interpretation and a unique solution for the corresponding parabolic Anderson model,…
