We formulate a deterministic threshold-safety problem for a reduced compartmental voter-flow model. An exogenous load enters an alienation reservoir; between releases the reservoir recovers exponentially. Near the mainstream baseline the…
The Persistent Turning Walker Model (PTWM) was introduced by Gautrais et al in Mathematical Biology for the modelling of fish motion. It involves a nonlinear pathwise functional of a non-elliptic hypo-elliptic diffusion. This diffusion…
In this paper we examine a variant of the voter model on a dynamically changing network where agents have the option of changing their friends rather than changing their opinions. We analyse, in the context of dense random graphs, two…
We study a random walk pinning model, where conditioned on a simple random walk Y on Z^d acting as a random medium, the path measure of a second independent simple random walk X up to time t is Gibbs transformed with Hamiltonian -L_t(X,Y),…
We study the large time behavior of solutions to a non-local diffusion equation, $u_t=J*u-u$ with $J$ smooth, radially symmetric and compactly supported, posed in $\mathbb{R}_+$ with zero Dirichlet boundary conditions. In sets of the form…
We consider a system of independent branching random walks on $\R$ which start off a Poisson point process with intensity of the form $e_{\lambda}(du)=e^{-\lambda u}du$, where $\lambda\in\R$ is chosen in such a way that the overall…
This paper is about vector autoregressive-moving average (VARMA) models with time-dependent coefficients to represent non-stationary time series. Contrarily to other papers in the univariate case, the coefficients depend on time but not on…
The main result of this paper is that there are examples of stochastic partial differential equations [hereforth, SPDEs] of the type $$ \partial_t u=\frac12\Delta u +\sigma(u)\eta \qquad\text{on $(0\,,\infty)\times\mathbb{R}^3$}$$ such that…
In this paper, we investigate a nonparametric approach to provide a recursive estimator of the transition density of a non-stationary piecewise-deterministic Markov process, from only one observation of the path within a long time. In this…
We investigate the sharp density $\rho(t,x; y)$ of the solution $u(t,x)$ to stochastic partial differential equation $\frac{\partial }{\partial t} u(t,x)=\frac12 \Delta u(t,x)+u\diamond \dot W(t,x)$, where $\dot W$ is a general Gaussian…
Discrete time random walks, in which a step of random sign but constant length $\delta x$ is performed after each time interval $\delta t$, are widely used models for stochastic processes. In the case of a correlated random walk, the next…
In this paper we prove existence and uniqueness results for nonlinear parabolic problems with Dirichlet boundary values whose model is \[ \left\{ \begin{aligned} &b(u)_t-\Delta_{p}u=\mu\;\mbox{in }(0,T)\times\Omega,\\…
The nonlinear $\sigma$-model for disordered interacting electrons is studied in spatial dimensions $d>4$. The critical behavior at the metal-insulator transition is determined exactly, and found to be that of a standard…
We consider time-dependent random walks among time-dependent conductances. For discrete time random walks, we show that, unlike the time-independent case, two-sided Gaussian heat kernel estimates are not stable under perturbations. This is…
We solve variationally certain equations of stellar dynamics of the form $-\sum_i\partial_{ii} u(x) =\frac{|u|^{p-2}u(x)}{{\rm dist} (x,{\mathcal A} )^s}$ in a domain $\Omega$ of $\rn$, where ${\mathcal A} $ is a proper linear subspace of…
The aim of this paper is to prove that, for specific initial data $(u_0,u_1)$ and with homogeneous Neumann boundary conditions, the solution of the IBVP for a hyperbolic variation of Allen-Cahn equation on the interval $[a,b]$ shares the…
We consider a parabolic-elliptic system of partial differential equations with chemotaxis and logistic growth given by the system $$ \left\{ \begin{array}{l} u_t -\Delta (u \gamma(v)= \mu u(1-u), \\ - \Delta v +v=u, \end{array} \right. $$…
In this article, we consider the space-time fractional (nonlocal) equation characterizing the so-called "double-scale" anomalous diffusion $$\partial_t^\beta u(t, x) = -(-\Delta)^{\alpha/2}u(t,x) - (-\Delta)^{\gamma/2}u(t,x) \ \ t> 0, \…
The voter model is a classical interacting particle system modelling how consensus is formed across a network. We analyse the time to consensus for the voter model when the underlying graph is a subcritical scale-free random graph.…
We investigate a four-impurity Anderson model where localized orbitals are located at vertices of a regular tetrahedron and find a novel fixed point in addition to the ordinary Fermi liquid phase. That is characterized by unscreened scalar…
