In this paper we propose a model of random compositions of cylinder maps, which in the simplified form is as follows: let $(\theta,r)\in \mathbb T\times \mathbb R=\mathbb A$ and \[ f_{\pm 1}:…

We study time-reversal symmetry in dynamical systems with finite phase space, with applications to birational maps reduced over finite fields. For a polynomial automorphism with a single family of reversing symmetries, a universal (i.e.,…

We consider first passage percolation on certain isotropic random graphs in $\mathbb{R}^d$. We assume exponential concentration of passage times $T(x,y)$, on some scale $\sigma_r$ whenever $|y-x|$ is of order $r$, with $\sigma_r$ "growning…

Consider a random simplex $[X_1,\ldots,X_n]$ defined as the convex hull of independent identically distributed random points $X_1,\ldots,X_n$ in $\mathbb{R}^{n-1}$ with the following beta density: $$ f_{n-1,\beta} (x) \propto…

Let $\mathcal{T}_n$ be the set of all mappings $T:\{1,2,\ldots,n\}\to\{1,2,\ldots,n\}$. The corresponding graph of $T$ is a union of disjoint connected unicyclic components. We assume that each $T\in\mathcal{T}_n$ is chosen uniformly at…

We consider random iteration of exponential entire functions, i.e. of the form ${\mathbb C}\ni z\mapsto f_\lambda(z):=\lambda e^z\in\mathbb C$, $\lambda\in{\mathbb C}\setminus \{0\}$. Assuming that $\lambda$ is in a bounded closed interval…

We study random independent and identically distributed iterations of functions from an iterated function system of homeomorphisms on the circle which is minimal. We show how such systems can be analyzed in terms of iterated function…

We consider chains of one-dimensional, piecewise linear, chaotic maps with uniform slope. We study the diffusive behaviour of an initially nonuniform distribution of points as a function of the slope of the map by solving Frobenius-Perron…

This paper provides uniform bounds on the asymptotic regularity for iterations associated to a finite family of nonexpansive mappings. We obtain our quantitative results in the setting of $(r,\delta)$-convex spaces, a class of geodesic…

Arising as a fluctuation phenomenon, the equilibrium distribution of meandering steps with mean separation $<\ell>$ on a "tilted" surface can be fruitfully analyzed using results from RMT. The set of step configurations in 2D can be mapped…

We investigate the origin of diffusion in non-chaotic systems. As an example, we consider 1-$d$ map models whose slope is everywhere 1 (therefore the Lyapunov exponent is zero) but with random quenched discontinuities and quasi-periodic…

Diffusion maps are an emerging data-driven technique for non-linear dimensionality reduction, which are especially useful for the analysis of coherent structures and nonlinear embeddings of dynamical systems. However, the computational…

In this article we consider the cycle structure of compositions of pairs of involutions in the symmetric group S_n chosen uniformly at random. These can be modeled as modified 2-regular graphs, giving rise to exponential generating…

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…

The main objects under consideration in this thesis are called maps, a certain class of graphs embedded on surfaces. Our problems have a powerful relatively recent tool in common, the so-called topological recursion (TR) introduced by…

We explore the probability that a permutation sampled from the symmetric group of order n uniformly at random has cycles of lengths not exceeding r. Asymptotic formulas valid in specified regions for the ratio n/r are obtained using the…

We model chaotic diffusion, in a symplectic 4D map by using the result of a theorem that was developed for stochastically perturbed integrable Hamiltonian systems. We explicitly consider a map defined by a free rotator (FR) coupled to a…

Let $\a$ be a complex random variable with mean zero and bounded variance $\sigma^{2}$. Let $N_{n}$ be a random matrix of order $n$ with entries being i.i.d. copies of $\a$. Let $\lambda_{1}, ..., \lambda_{n}$ be the eigenvalues of…

Diffusion models trained on different, non-overlapping subsets of a dataset often produce strikingly similar outputs when given the same noise seed. We trace this consistency to a simple linear effect: the shared Gaussian statistics across…

In this paper we deal with the classical problem of random cover times. We investigate the distribution of the time it takes for a Poisson process of cylinders to cover a set $A \subset \mathbb{R}^d.$ This Poisson process of cylinders is…
