Let $G$ be a locally compact, second countable, unimodular group that is nondiscrete and noncompact. We explore the theory of invariant point processes on $G$. We show that every free probability measure preserving (pmp) action of $G$ can…

For every $3/4\le \delta, \beta< 1$ satisfying $\delta\leq \beta < \frac{1+\delta}{2}$ we construct a finitely generated group $\Gamma$ and a (symmetric, finitely supported) random walk $X_n$ on $\Gamma$ so that its expected distance from…

We prove that if $\rho$ is an adapted positive definite function in the Fourier--Stieltjes algebra $B(G)$ of a locally compact group $G$ with $\|\rho\|_{B(G)}=1$, then the iterated powers $(\rho^n)$ converge to zero in the weak* topology…

It is proved that the Green's function of the simple random walk on a surface group of large genus decays exponentially at the spectral radius. It is also shown that Ancona's inequalities extend to the spectral radius R, and therefore that…

This paper is aim to extend Kenneth R. Berg's findings on the maximal entropy theorem and the ergodicity of measure convolution to the case of surjective homomorphisms. We further explores dynamical systems under surjective homomorphism in…

We study random walks on groups of isometries of non-proper delta-hyperbolic spaces under the assumption that at least one element in the group satisfies Bestvina-Fujiwara's WPD condition. We show that in this case typical elements are WPD,…

We continue our study of one-dimensional class of Euler equations, introduced in \cite{ST2016}, driven by a forcing with a commutator structure of the form $[\aL_\phi,u](\rho)=\phi*(\rho u)- (\phi*\rho)u$, where $u$ is the velocity field…

Let $\Gamma$ be a Zariski dense discrete subgroup of a connected simple real algebraic group $G_1$. We discuss a rigidity problem for discrete faithful representations $\rho:\Gamma\to G_2$ and a surprising role played by higher rank…

In this paper we study subdiffusion in a system with a thin membrane. At the beginning, the random walk of a particle is considered in a system with a discrete time and space variable and then the probability describing the evolution of the…

We estimate contrasts $\int_0 ^1 \rho(F^{-1}(u)-G^{-1}(u))du$ between two continuous distributions $F$ and $G$ on $\mathbb R$ such that the set $\{F=G\}$ is a finite union of intervals, possibly empty or $\mathbb{R}$. The non-negative…

We consider two random walks evolving synchronously on a random out-regular graph of $n$ vertices with bounded out-degree $r\ge 2$, also known as a random Deterministic Finite Automaton (DFA). We show that, with high probability with…

We consider random walks on the group of orientation-preserving homeomorphisms of the real line ${\mathbb R}$. In particular, the fundamental question of uniqueness of an invariant measure of the generated process is raised. This problem…

In this paper, we study the problem of sampling from distributions of the form p(x) \propto e^{-\beta f(x)} for some function f whose values and gradients we can query. This mode of access to f is natural in the scenarios in which such…

We study the polygons governing the convex hull of a point set created by the steps of $n$ independent two-dimensional random walkers. Each such walk consists of $T$ discrete time steps, where $x$ and $y$ increments are i.i.d. Gaussian. We…
