As a first step toward a characterization of the limiting extremal process of branching Brownian motion, we proved in a recent work [Comm. Pure Appl. Math. 64 (2011) 1647-1676] that, in the limit of large time $t$, extremal particles…

Let $\eta_t$ be a Poisson point process with intensity measure $t\mu$, $t>0$, over a Borel space $\mathbb{X}$, where $\mu$ is a fixed measure. Another point process $\xi_t$ on the real line is constructed by applying a symmetric function…

We study the $\beta$ analogue of the nonintersecting Poisson random walks. We derive a stochastic differential equation of the Stieltjes transform of the empirical measure process, which can be viewed as a dynamical version of the…

To better understand how populations respond to dynamic external pressure, we propose a new diffusion model in the moving half-line {z $\ge$ b(t)}, where the boundary position b(t) is a given nondecreasing function of time. A Robin boundary…

We consider a particle moving in one dimension, its velocity being a reversible diffusion process, with constant diffusion coefficient, of which the invariant measure behaves like $(1+|v|)^{-\beta}$ for some $\beta>0$. We prove that, under…

In the freezing regime where the system size N is fixed and the inverse temperature beta tends to infinity, the eigenvalues of Gaussian beta ensembles converge to zeros of the Nth Hermite polynomial. That law of large numbers has been…

We show that the stick-breaking construction of the beta process due to Paisley, et al. (2010) can be obtained from the characterization of the beta process as a Poisson process. Specifically, we show that the mean measure of the underlying…

We study CMV matrices (a discrete one-dimensional Dirac-type operator) with random decaying coefficients. Under mild assumptions we identify the local eigenvalue statistics in the natural scaling limit. For rapidly decreasing coefficients,…

We consider a gas of N particles with a general two-body interaction and confined by an external potential in the mean field or high temperature regime, that is when the inverse temperature satisfies $\beta N \to \kappa \ge 0$ as…

Consider a time-varying collection of n points on the positive real axis, modeled as exponentials of n Brownian motions whose drift vector at every time point is determined by the relative ranks of the coordinate processes at that time. If…

Consider a point particle moving through a Poisson distributed array of cubes all oriented along the axes - the random wind-tree model introduced in Ehrenfest-Ehrenfest (1912). We show that, in the joint Boltzmann-Grad and diffusive limit…

We establish Poisson and compound Poisson approximations for stabilizing statistics of $\beta$-mixing point processes and give explicit rates of convergence. Our findings are based on a general estimate of the total variation distance of a…

In a celebrated paper, Dyson shows that the spectrum of an n\times n random Hermitian matrix, diffusing according to an Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process, evolves as n noncolliding Brownian motions held together by a drift term. The universal edge…

The squared Bessel process is a 1-dimensional diffusion process related to the squared norm of a higher dimensional Brownian motion. We study a model of $n$ non-intersecting squared Bessel paths, with all paths starting at the same point…

We establish uniform pointwise estimates for the densities of a family of $\alpha$-stable processes with respect to the index $\alpha \in [\alpha_0,2]$ for some $\alpha_0>0$. In addition, we estimate the difference between the heat kernels…

At high temperature, the overlap of two particles chosen independently according to the Gibbs measure of the branching Brownian motion converges to zero as time goes to infinity. We investigate the precise decay rate of the probability to…

Beta Laguerre processes which are generalizations of the eigenvalue process of Wishart/Laguerre processes can be defined as the square of radial Dunkl processes of type B. In this paper, we study the limiting behavior of their empirical…

Poisson distributed measurements in inverse problems often stem from Poisson point processes that are observed through discretized or finite-resolution detectors, one of the most prominent examples being positron emission tomography (PET).…

In a previous paper we have constructed a family of processes, starting from a set of independent standard Poisson processes, that has realizations that converge almost surely to the Brownian sheet, uniformly in the unit square. Now, a rate…

We consider a particle moving in $d\geq 2$ dimensions, its velocity being a reversible diffusion process, with identity diffusion coefficient, of which the invariant measure behaves, roughly, like $(1+|v|)^{-\beta}$ as $|v|\to \infty$, for…
