We study a class of dynamical systems generated by random substitutions, which contains both intrinsically ergodic systems and instances with several measures of maximal entropy. In this class, we show that the measures of maximal entropy…
A continuous time mixed state branching process is constructed as the scaling limits of two-type Galton-Watson processes. The process can also be obtained by the pathwise unique solution to a stochastic equation system. From the stochastic…
We consider elliptic diffusion processes on $\mathbb R^d$. Assuming that the drift contracts distances outside a compact set, we prove that, at a sufficiently high temperature, the Markov semi-group associated to the process is a…
In this paper, we consider a subclass of piecewise deterministic Markov processes with a Polish state space that involve a deterministic motion punctuated by random jumps, occurring in a Poisson-like fashion with some state-dependent rate,…
In this paper, we introduce a new class of processes which are diffusions with jumps driven by a multivariate nonlinear Hawkes process. Our goal is to study their long-time behavior. In the case of exponential memory kernels for the…
We provide a criterion for establishing lower bounds on the rate of convergence in $f$-variation of a continuous-time ergodic Markov process to its invariant measure. The criterion consists of novel super- and submartingale conditions for…
We consider a class of discrete time Markov chains with state space [0,1] and the following dynamics. At each time step, first the direction of the next transition is chosen at random with probability depending on the current location. Then…
We study the limit behaviour of upper and lower bounds on expected time averages in imprecise Markov chains; a generalised type of Markov chain where the local dynamics, traditionally characterised by transition probabilities, are now…
Let $k\in (d,\infty]$ and consider the $k*$-distance $$\|\mu-\nu\|_{k*}:= \sup\Big\{|\mu(f)-\nu(f)|:\ f\in\B_b(\R^d),\ \|f\|_{\tt L^k}:=\sup_{x\in \R^d}\|1_{B(x,1)}f\|_{L^k}\le 1\Big\}$$ between probability measures on $\R^d$. The…
We analyze the behavior of stochastic approximation algorithms where iterates, in expectation, progress towards an objective at each step. When progress is proportional to the step size of the algorithm, we prove exponential concentration…
Causal optimal transport and adapted Wasserstein distance have applications in different fields from optimization to mathematical finance and machine learning. The goal of this article is to provide equivalent formulations of these concepts…
The voltage-conductance kinetic equation for an ensemble of neurons has been studied by many scientists and mathematicians, while its rigorous analysis is still at a premature stage. In this work, we obtain for the first time the…
The role of the Wasserstein distance in the thermodynamic speed limit inequalities for Markov jump processes is investigated. We elucidate the nature of the Wasserstein distance in the thermodynamic speed limit inequality from three…
We study a general class of interacting particle systems over a countable state space $V$ where on each site $x \in V$ the particle mass $\eta(x) \geq 0$ follows a stochastic differential equation. We construct the corresponding Markovian…
We consider a Markovian single-server retrial queueing system with a constant retrial rate. Conditions of null ergodicity and exponential ergodicity for the correspondent process, as well as bounds on the rate of convergence are obtained.
We consider a piecewise deterministic Markov decision process, where the expected exponential utility of total (nonnegative) cost is to be minimized. The cost rate, transition rate and post-jump distributions are under control. The state…
We consider Markov jump processes on a graph described by a rate matrix that depends on various control parameters. We derive explicit expressions for the static responses of edge currents and steady-state probabilities. We show that they…
How is it that entropy derivatives almost in their own are characterizing the state of a system close to equilibrium, and what happens further away from it? We explain within the framework of Markov jump processes why fluctuation theory can…
We study a general class of random walks driven by a uniquely ergodic Markovian environment. Under a coupling condition on the environment we obtain strong ergodicity properties and concentration inequalities for the environment as seen…
In this short note we prove ``effective" geometric ergodicity (i.e a Perron-Frobenius theorem) for Markov chains in random mixing dynamical environment satisfying a random non-uniform version of the Doeblin condition. Effectivity here means…
