Let $U\subset K$ be an open and dense subset of a compact metric space and let $\{\Phi_t\}_{t\ge0}$ be a Markov semigroup on the space of bounded Borel measurable functions on $U$ with the strong Feller property. Suppose that for each…
In this paper, we consider general Markov chains (MC), specified by the transition probability (kernel) $ P (x, E) $, finitely additive in the second argument. Such MC are studied within the framework of the functional operator treatment.…
This article establishes sufficient conditions for a linear-in-time bound on the non-asymptotic variance of particle approximations of time-homogeneous Feynman-Kac formulae. These formulae appear in a wide variety of applications including…
We construct a four-parameter family of Markov processes on infinite Gelfand-Tsetlin schemes that preserve the class of central (Gibbs) measures. Any process in the family induces a Feller Markov process on the infinite-dimensional boundary…
Let $Z=(Z^{1}, \ldots, Z^{d})$ be the $d$-dimensional L\'evy processes where $Z^{i}$'s are independent $1$-dimensional L\'evy processes with jump kernel $J^{\phi, 1}(u,w) =|u-w|^{-1}\phi(|u-w|)^{-1}$ for $u, w\in \mathbb R$. Here $\phi$ is…
Sequential and quantum Monte Carlo methods, as well as genetic type search algorithms can be interpreted as a mean field and interacting particle approximations of Feynman-Kac models in distribution spaces. The performance of these…
We study properties of a piecewise deterministic Markov process modeling the changes in concentration of specific antibodies. The evolution of densities of the process is described by a stochastic semigroup. The long-time behaviour of this…
We define a class of not necessarily linear $C_0$-semigroups $(P_t)_{t\geq0}$ on $C_b(E)$ (more generally, on $C_\kappa(E):=\frac1\kappa C_b(E)$, for some bounded function $\kappa$, which is the pointwise limit of a decreasing sequence of…
A stable-like process is a Feller process $(X_t)_{t\geq 0}$ taking values in $\mathbb{R}^d$ and whose generator behaves, locally, like an $\alpha$-stable L\'evy process, but the index $\alpha$ and all other characteristics may depend on the…
Let $(X_t, Y_t)_{t\in T}$ be a discrete or continuous-time Markov process with state space $X \times R^d$ where $X$ is an arbitrary measurable set. Its transition semigroup is assumed to be additive with respect to the second component,…
We provide two applications of an elementary (yet seemingly unknown) probabilistic representation of matrix ordered exponentials, which generalizes the Feynman-Kac formula in finite dimensions and the change of measure formula between two…
In this paper, we study Feynman-Kac semigroups of symmetric $\alpha$-stable processes with supercritical killing potentials belonging to a large class of functions containing functions of the form $b|x|^{-\beta}$, where $b>0$ and…
An extension of the conditional expectations (those under a given subalgebra of events and not the simple ones under a single event) from the classical to the quantum case is presented. In the classical case, the conditional expectations…
The construction presented in this paper can be briefly described as follows: starting from any "finite-dimensional" Markov transition function p_t, on a measurable state space (E,B), we construct a strong Markov process on a certain…
In this paper, we adopt a nonparametric Bayesian approach and investigate the asymptotic behavior of the posterior distribution in continuous time and general state space semi-Markov processes. In particular, we obtain posterior…
We use analytical methods to construct the two-parameter Feller semigroup associated with a Markov process on a line with a moving membrane such that at the points on both sides of the membrane it coincides with the ordinary diffusion…
Let $\{X_n\}_{n\in\N}$ be a Markov chain on a measurable space $\X$ with transition kernel $P$ and let $V:\X\r[1,+\infty)$. The Markov kernel $P$ is here considered as a linear bounded operator on the weighted-supremum space $\cB_V$…
In this paper, we discuss hypercontractivity for the Markov semigroup $P_t$ which is generated by segment processes associated with a range of functional SDEs of neutral type. As applications, we also reveal that the semigroup $P_t$…
Nash and Sobolev inequalities are known to be equivalent to ultracontractive properties of heat-like Markov semigroups, hence to uniform on-diagonal bounds on their kernel densities. In non ultracontractive settings, such bounds can not…
In this paper, we are concerned with centered Markov Additive Processes $\{(X_t,Y_t)\}_{t\in\T}$ where the driving Markov process $\{X_t\}_{t\in\T}$ has a finite state space. Under suitable conditions, we provide a local limit theorem for…
