Let (S(t)) be a one-parameter family S = (S(t)) of positive integral operators on a locally compact space L. For a possibly non-uniform partition of [0,1] define a measure on the path space C([0,1],L) by using a) S(dt) for the transition…
For a random walk defined for a doubly infinite sequence of times, we let the time parameter itself be an integer-valued process, and call the orginal process a random walk at random time. We find the scaling limit which generalizes the…
Peccati, Sole, Taqqu, and Utzet recently combined Stein's method and Malliavin calculus to obtain a bound for the Wasserstein distance of a Poisson functional and a Gaussian random variable. Convergence in the Wasserstein distance always…
Pinsker's classical inequality asserts that the total variation $TV(\mu, \nu)$ between two probability measures is bounded by $\sqrt{ 2H(\mu|\nu)}$ where $H$ denotes the relative entropy (or Kullback-Leibler divergence). Considering the…
This paper deals with bilateral-gamma (BG) approximation to functionals of an isonormal Gaussian process. We use Malliavin-Stein method to obtain the error bounds for the smooth Wasserstein distance. As by-products, the error bounds for…
We study path integrals in the Trotter-type form for the Schr\"odinger equation, where the Hamiltonian is the Weyl quantization of a real-valued quadratic form perturbed by a potential $V$ in a class encompassing that - considered by…
We construct an iterated stochastic integral with fractional Brownian motion with H > 1/2. The first integrand is a deterministic function, and each successive integral is with respect to an independent fBm. We show that this symmetric…
In this paper, we study univariate and planar random motions with variable propagation speeds. We first consider motions with space-varying velocity, which can be reduced to constant-velocity motions by means of suitable nonlinear…
We prove that for any pair of i.i.d. random variables $X,Y$ with finite moment of order $a \in (0,2]$ it is true that $E |X-Y|^a \leq E |X+Y|^a$. Surprisingly, this inequality turns out to be related with bifractional Brownian motion. We…
Interest in Brownian motion was shared by different communities: this phenomenon was first observed by the botanist Robert Brown in 1827, then theorised by physicists in the 1900s, and eventually modelled by mathematicians from the 1920s,…
In this paper, we study in the Markovian case the rate of convergence in the Wasserstein distance of an approximation of the solution to a BSDE given by a BSDE which is driven by a scaled random walk as introduced in Briand, Delyon and…
We consider the following second-order stochastic differential equation on $\mathbb{R}^{2d}$: \begin{equation*} dX_t^m=Y_t^mdt, \quad mdY_t^m=b(X_t^m)dt+\sigma(X_t^m)dB_t-Y^m_tdt, \end{equation*} where $X^m_t$ and $Y^m_t$ represent the…
We develop a variant of Stein's method of comparison of generators to bound the Kolmogorov, total variation, and Wasserstein-1 distances between distributions on the real line. Our discrepancy is expressed in terms of the ratio of reverse…
In inverse problems, prior information and a priori-based regularization techniques play important roles. In this paper, we focus on image restoration problems, especially on restoring images whose texture mainly follow one direction. In…
Considering two random variables with different laws to which we only have access through finite size iid samples, we address how to reweight the first sample so that its empirical distribution converges towards the true law of the second…
The purpose of this note is to collect in one place a few results about simple random walk and Brownian motion which are often useful. These include standard results such as Beurling estimates, large deviation estimates, and a method for…
We consider the approximation of a convolution of possibly different probability measures by (compound) Poisson distributions and also by related signed measures of higher order. We present new total variation bounds having a better…
The results of this paper build upon those first obtained by Sznitman and Zeitouni in [11]. We establish, for spacial dimensions greater than two, the existence of a unique invariant measure for isotropic diffusions in random environment…
Riemannian flow matching (RFM) extends flow-based generative modeling to data supported on manifolds by learning a time-dependent tangent vector field whose flow-ODE transports a simple base distribution to the data law. We develop a…
The goal of this paper is to present a novel approach for total variation regularization and Sobolev minimization, which are prominent tools for variational imaging. Thereby we use derivative free characterizations of the total variation…
