For ${1/2}<\alpha<1$, we propose the MDP analysis for family $$ S^\alpha_n=\frac{1}{n^\alpha}\sum_{i=1}^nH(X_{i-1}), n\ge 1, $$ where $(X_n)_{n\ge 0}$ be a homogeneous ergodic Markov chain, $X_n\in \mathbb{R}^d$, when the spectrum of…
We derive and prove the path-kernel formula for the linear response (parameter-derivative of averaged statistics) of SDEs. The parameter may affect the drift coefficient, the diffusion coefficient, and the initial condition. The formula…
We consider control systems of the type $\dot x = A x +\alpha(t)bu$, where $u\in\R$, $(A,b)$ is a controllable pair and $\alpha$ is an unknown time-varying signal with values in $[0,1]$ satisfying a persistent excitation condition i.e.,…
We study the onset of spatial instabilities in reaction networks where the spatially homogeneous system admits a steady state parameterization. We formulate a sufficient condition -- based on the signs of the constant and leading…

We study the family of quadratic maps f_a(x) = 1 - ax^2 on the interval [-1,1] with a between 0 and 2. When small holes are introduced into the system, we prove the existence of an absolutely continuous conditionally invariant measure using…
We consider deterministic fast-slow dynamical systems on $\mathbb{R}^m\times Y$ of the form \[ \begin{cases} x_{k+1}^{(n)} = x_k^{(n)} + n^{-1} a(x_k^{(n)}) + n^{-1/\alpha} b(x_k^{(n)}) v(y_k)\;,\quad y_{k+1} = f(y_k)\;, \end{cases} \]…

We examine a periodic mixed spin chain with spin magnitudes 1/2 and 1 which are arrayed as 1/2-1/2-1-1. The three independent parameters are ratios of the four exchange couplings. We determine phase boundaries in the parameter space by…
We study linear recurrence and weak mixing of a two-parameter family of interval translation maps $T_{\alpha,\beta}$ for the subset of parameter space where $T_{\alpha,\beta}$ has a Cantor attractor. For this class, there is a procedure…

The literature on statistical learning for time series assumes the asymptotic independence or ``mixing' of the data-generating process. These mixing assumptions are never tested, nor are there methods for estimating mixing rates from data.…
Parametric derivatives of statistics are highly desired quantities in prediction, design optimization and uncertainty quantification. In the presence of chaos, the rigorous computation of these quantities is certainly possible, but…
We reconsider the theory of the linear response of non-equilibrium steady states to perturbations. We first show that by using a general functional decomposition for space-time dependent forcings, we can define elementary susceptibilities…
This paper proposes a semiparametric sieve approach to estimate impulse response functions of nonlinear time series within a general class of structural autoregressive models. We prove that a two-step procedure can flexibly accommodate…
In this work we study a class of stochastic processes $\{X_t\}_{t\in\N}$, where $X_t = (\phi \circ T_s^t)(X_0)$ is obtained from the iterations of the transformation T_s, invariant for an ergodic probability \mu_s on [0,1] and a continuous…

We prove explicit finite-$N$ lower bounds for $\mathbb P(\bigcup_{k=1}^N A_k)$ when the $\sigma$-algebras generated by an event sequence satisfy quantitative $\varphi$- or $\alpha$-mixing bounds. The main $\varphi$-mixing estimate is…
We consider the family of one-dimensional maps arising from the contracting Lorenz attractors studied by Rovella. Benedicks-Carleson techniques were used by Rovella to prove that there is a one-parameter family of maps whose derivatives…
The t-statistic is a widely-used scale-invariant statistic for testing the null hypothesis that the mean is zero. Martingale methods enable sequential testing with the t-statistic at every sample size, while controlling the probability of…
