We have measured a trigonometric parallax to the young brown dwarf 2MASSW J1207334-393254. The distance [54.0 (+3.2,-2.8) pc] and space motion confirm membership in the TW Hydrae Association. The primary is a ~25 M_jup brown dwarf. We…
The quantum Brownian motion of a charged particle in the electromagnetic vacuum fluctuations is investigated near a perfectly reflecting flat boundary, taking into account the smooth switching process in the measurement. Constructing a…
We give an effective upper escape rate function for Brownian motion on a complete Riemannian manifold in terms of the volume growth of the manifold. An important step in the work is estimating the small tail probability of the crossing time…
Recent works have shown that an instance of a Brownian surface (such as the Brownian map or Brownian disk) a.s. has a canonical conformal structure under which it is equivalent to a $\sqrt{8/3}$-Liouville quantum gravity (LQG) surface. In…
We extend the classical theory of sphere theorems to the transverse geometry of Riemannian foliations. In this setting, we establish transverse analogues of the Grove-Shiohama diameter sphere theorem and of the Berger-Klingenberg…
We prove strong existence and uniqueness for a reflection process $X$ in a smooth, bounded domain $D$ that behaves like obliquely-reflected-Brownian-motion, except that the direction of reflection depends on a (spin) parameter $S$, which…
It has been demonstrated that the difference between the Renormalised Brane World (RBW) model and the Lambda Cold Dark Matter ($\Lambda$CDM) model occurs only at sufficiently distant times. In this paper, it is shown that for spherically…
We consider a Brownian particle with diffusion coefficient $D$ in a $d$-dimensional ball of radius $R$ with reflecting boundaries. We study the maximum $M_x(t)$ of the trajectory of the particle along the $x$-direction at time $t$. In the…
We provide a short proof that the Wasserstein distance between the empirical measure of a n-sample and the estimated measure is of order n^-(1/d), if the measure has a lower and upper bounded density on the d-dimensional flat torus.
In this paper we prove that an isometry between orbit spaces of two proper isometric actions is smooth if it preserves the codimension of the orbits or if the orbit spaces have no boundary. In other words, we generalize Myers-Steenrod's…
We consider classical particles coupled to the quantized electromagnetic field in the background of a spatially flat Robertson-Walker universe. We find that these particles typically undergo Brownian motion and acquire a non-zero mean…
In this paper, we show that the $C^1$-differentiability of the norm of a two-dimensional normed space depends only on distances between points of the unit sphere in two different ways. As a consequence, we see that any isometry between the…
For normally reflected Brownian motion and for simple random walk on independently growing in time d-dimensional domains, d>=3, we establish a sharp criterion for recurrence versus transience in terms of the growth rate.
We consider the deconvolution problem for densities supported on a $(d-1)$-dimensional sphere with unknown center and unknown radius, in the situation where the distribution of the noise is unknown and without any other observations. We…
In this paper we compare the different phenomena that occur when intersecting geometric objects with random geodesics on the unit sphere and inside convex bodies. On the high dimensional sphere we see that with probability bounded away from…
We study Brownian loop soup clusters in $\mathbb{R}^3$ for an arbitrary intensity $\alpha>0$. We show the existence of a phase transition for the presence of unbounded clusters and study its basic properties. In particular, we show that,…
This paper presents a novel formula for the transition density of the Brownian motion on a sphere of any dimension and discusses an algorithm for the simulation of the increments of the spherical Brownian motion based on this formula. The…
We prove the cut-off phenomenon in total variation distance for the Brownian motions traced on the classical symmetric spaces of compact type, that is to say: (1) the classical simple compact Lie groups: special orthogonal groups, special…
We consider pairs of 3-dimensional Brownian paths, started at the origin and conditioned to have no intersections after time zero. We show that there exists a unique measure on pairs of paths that is invariant under this conditioning, while…
A conservative irrational pseudo-rotation of the two-torus is semi-conjugate to the irrational rotation if and only if it has the property of bounded mean motion [10]. (Here 'irrational pseudo-rotation' means a toral homeomorphism with…
