In this paper we provide sufficient conditions for sequences of stochastic processes of the form $\int_{[0,t]} f_n(u) \theta_n(u) du$, to weakly converge, in the space of continuous functions over a closed interval, to integrals with…

In 1997, Bauschke, Borwein, and Lewis have stated a trichotomy theorem that characterizes when the convergence of the method of alternating projections can be arbitrarily slow. However, there are two errors in their proof of this theorem.…

In Latouche and Nguyen (2015), the authors constructed a sequence of stochastic fluid processes and showed that it converges weakly to a Markov-modulated Brownian motion (MMBM). Here, we construct a different sequence of stochastic fluid…

We study the morphology of convergence maps by perturbatively reconstructing their Minkowski Functionals (MFs). We present a systematics study using a set of three generalised skew-spectra as a function of source redshift and smoothing…

The asymptotic behaviour of empirical measures has plenty of studies. However, the research on conditional empirical measures is limited. Being the development of Wang \cite{eW1}, under the quadratic Wasserstein distance, we investigate the…

A relation between the effective diffusion coefficient in a lattice with random site energies and random trasition rates and the macroscopic conductivity in a random resistor network allows for elucidating possible sources of anomalous…

The problem of diffraction of a waveguide mode by a thin Neumann screen is considered. The incident mode is assumed to have frequency close to the cut-off. The problem is reduced to a propagation problem on a branched surface and then is…

Motivated by models for thin films coating cylinders in two physical cases proposed by V.I. Kerchman and A.L. Frenkel, we analyze the dynamics of corresponding thin film models. The models are governed by nonlinear, fourth-order,…

We study the coherent inelastic diffraction of very weakly bound two body clusters from a material transmission grating. We show that internal transitions of the clusters can lead to new separate peaks in the diffraction pattern whose…

Weak topologies that yield weak convergence for bounded sequences and nets in CAT($0$) spaces have been studied in the past. We are here concerned with weak topologies that yield weak convergence of unbounded sequences and nets. We analyze…

Simulations are made of a probe particle diffusing through a complex fluid. Probe particle motions are described by the Mori-Zwanzig equation and Mori's orthogonal hierarchy of random forces scheme, subject to the approximation that the…

We show that anomalous diffusion arises in two different models for the motion of randomly forced and weakly damped particles: one is a generalisation of the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process with a random force which depends on position as well…

We consider the median of n independent Brownian motions, and show that this process, when properly scaled, converges weakly to a centered Gaussian process. The chief difficulty is establishing tightness, which is proved through direct…
