In this paper, we establish new quantitative convergence bounds for a class of functional autoregressive models in weighted total variation metrics. To derive our results, we show that under mild assumptions, explicit minorization and…
In this paper we develop a quantitative Harris theorem with effective control over the constants. A benefit of our methodology is the decoupling of the small set and Lyapunov-Foster Drift conditions. Our methodology allows any small set and…
We study a class of diffusion processes arising from random perturbations of conservative Hamiltonian systems. Under a set of abstract hypotheses -- including basic structural assumptions on the Hamiltonian, a weak Lyapunov structure, and a…
In the case of diffusions on $\mathbb R^d$ with constant diffusion matrix, without assuming reversibility nor hypoellipticity, we prove that the contractivity of the deterministic drift is equivalent to the constant rate contraction of…
We show the $L^2$-Wasserstein contraction for the transition kernel of a discretised diffusion process, under a contractivity at infinity condition on the drift and a sufficiently high diffusivity requirement. This extends recent results…
We consider contractivity for diffusion semigroups w.r.t. Kantorovich ($L^1$ Wasserstein) distances based on appropriately chosen concave functions. These distances are inbetween total variation and usual Wasserstein distances. It is shown…
We consider the minor process of (Hermitian) matrix diffusions with constant diagonal drifts. At any given time, this process is determinantal and we provide an explicit expression for its correlation kernel. This is a measure on the…
The fact that a Markov diffusion semi-group on $\mathbb R^d$ contracts the $L^p$ Wasserstein distance, which has been extensively used to establish uniform-in-time stability estimates (e.g. with respect to numerical discretization errors),…
We consider elliptic diffusion processes on $\mathbb R^d$. Assuming that the drift contracts distances outside a compact set, we prove that, at a sufficiently high temperature, the Markov semi-group associated to the process is a…
Continuous Time Markov Chains, Hawkes processes and many other interesting processes can be described as solution of stochastic differential equations driven by Poisson measures. Previous works, using the Stein's method, give the…
For a wide class of continuous-time Markov processes, including all irreducible hypoelliptic diffusions evolving on an open, connected subset of $\RL^d$, the following are shown to be equivalent: (i) The process satisfies (a slightly weaker…
The paper presents new simple sharp bounds for transition density functions for time-homogeneous diffusions processes. The bounds are obtained under mild conditions on the drift and diffusion coefficients, extending and substantially…
In this paper, we derive a stability result for $L_1$ and $L_{\infty}$ perturbations of diffusions under weak regularity conditions on the coefficients. In particular, the drift terms we consider can be unbounded with at most linear growth,…
In this article, relying on Foster-Lyapunov drift conditions, we establish subexponential upper and lower bounds on the rate of convergence in the $\mathrm{L}^p$-Wasserstein distance for a class of irreducible and aperiodic Markov…
In this paper, we introduce a new class of processes which are diffusions with jumps driven by a multivariate nonlinear Hawkes process. Our goal is to study their long-time behavior. In the case of exponential memory kernels for the…
As a starting point we prove a functional central limit theorem for estimators of the invariant measure of a geometrically ergodic Harris-recurrent Markov chain in a multi-scale space. This allows to construct confidence bands for the…
We consider general Markov processes with absorption and provide criteria ensuring the exponential convergence in total variation of the distribution of the process conditioned not to be absorbed. The first one is based on two-sided…
We establish weak well-posedness for SDEs having discontinuous diffusion coefficients and general distributional drifts that may introduce local blow up effects. Our drifts satisfy minimal assumptions, i.e.\,we assume only that the Cauchy…
We consider large deviations of empirical measures of diffusion processes. In a first part, we present conditions to obtain a large deviations principle (LDP) for a precise class of unbounded functions. This provides an analogue to the…
