We consider a one-dimensional stationary stochastic process $x(\tau)$ of duration $T$. We study the probability density function (PDF) $P(t_{\rm m}|T)$ of the time $t_{\rm m}$ at which $x(\tau)$ reaches its global maximum. By using a path…

An instance $I$ of the Stable Matching Problem (SMP) is given by a bipartite graph with a preference list of neighbors for every vertex. A swap in $I$ is the exchange of two consecutive vertices in a preference list. A swap can be viewed as…

We prove that if the Sobolev embedding $M^{1,p}(X)\hookrightarrow L^q(X)$ holds for some $q>p\geq 1$ in a metric measure space $(X,d,\mu),$ then a constant $C$ exists such that $\mu(B(x,r))\geq Cr^n$ for all $x\in X$ and all $0<r\leq 1,$…

Let $X(\cdot)$ be a non-degenerate, positive recurrent one-dimensional diffusion process on $\mathbb{R}$ with invariant probability density $\mu(x)$, and let $\tau_y=\inf\{t\ge0: X(t)=y\}$ denote the first hitting time of $y$. Let…

Suppose a solid has a crack filled with a gas. If the crack reaches the surrounding medium, how long does it take the gas to diffuse out of the crack? Iterated Brownian motion serves as a model for diffusion in a crack. If \tau is the first…
