We derive a systematic, multiple time-scale perturbation expansion for the work distribution in isothermal quasi-static Langevin processes. To first order we find a Gaussian distribution reproducing the result of Speck and Seifert [Phys.…
Linear processes are defined as a discrete-time convolution between a kernel and an infinite sequence of i.i.d. random variables. We modify this convolution by introducing decimation, that is, by stretching time accordingly. We then…
We present normal approximation results at the process level for local functionals defined on dynamic Poisson processes in $\mathbb{R}^d$. The dynamics we study here are those of a Markov birth-death process. We prove functional limit…
In the paper we consider the partial sum process $\sum_{k=1}^{[nt]}X_k^{(n)}$, where $\{X_k^{(n)}=\sum_{j=0}^{\infty} a_{j}^{(n)}\xi_{k-j}(b(n)), \ k\in \bz\},\ n\ge 1,$ is a series of linear processes with tapered filter…
We prove that the two point correlation matrix $ \textbf{M}= (\langle \sigma_i ; \sigma_j\rangle)_{1\leq i,j\leq N} \in \mathbb{R}^{N\times N}$ of the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick model has the property that for every $\epsilon>0$ there exists…
The situation of two independent observers conducting measurements on a joint quantum system is usually modelled using a Hilbert space of tensor product form, each factor associated to one observer. Correspondingly, the operators describing…
We consider N single server infinite buffer queues with service rate \beta. Customers arrive at rate N\alpha, choose L queues uniformly, and join the shortest. We study the processes R^N for large N, where R^N_t(k) is the fraction of queues…
The central limit theorem of martingales is the fundamental tool for studying the convergence of stochastic processes. The central limit theorem and functional central limit theorem are obtained for martingale like random variables under…
We investigate the fluctuations of the stochastic Becker-D\"oring model of polymerization when the initial size of the system converges to infinity. A functional central limit problem is proved for the vector of the number of polymers of a…
Let $D,X \in B(H)$ be bounded operators on an infinite dimensional Hilbert space $H$. If the commutator $[D,X] = DX-XD$ lies within $\varepsilon$ in operator norm of the identity operator $1_{B(H)}$, then it was observed by Popa that one…
We study the infinite urn scheme when the balls are sequentially distributed over an infinite number of urns labelled 1,2,... so that the urn $j$ at every draw gets a ball with probability $p_j$, $\sum_j p_j=1$. We prove functional central…
We investigate the problem of similarity to a self-adjoint operator for $J$-positive Sturm-Liouville operators $L=\frac{1}{\omega}(-\frac{d^2}{dx^2}+q)$ with $2\pi$-periodic coefficients $q$ and $\omega$. It is shown that if 0 is a critical…
In this work, we establish a Trotter-Kato type theorem. More precisely, we characterize the convergence in distribution of Feller processes by examining the convergence of their generators. The main novelty lies in providing quantitative…
Let $\sigma=(\sigma_{1},\sigma_{2},\dots,\sigma_{n})\in \mathbb{S}^{n-1}$ and $d\sigma$ denote the normalised Lebesgue measure on $\mathbb{S}^{n-1},~n\geq 2$. For functions $f_1, f_2,\dots,f_n$ defined on $\R$ consider the multilinear…

Let $C$ be a conjugation on a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$. A densely defined linear operator $A$ on $\mathcal{H}$ is called $C$-symmetric if $CAC\subseteq A^*$ and $C$-self-adjoint if $CAC=A^*$. Our main results describe all…
Let $X$ be a (real or complex) rearrangement-in\-va\-riant function space on $\Om$ (where $\Om = [0,1]$ or $\Om \subseteq \bbN$) whose norm is not proportional to the $L_2$-norm. Let $H$ be a separable Hilbert space. We characterize…
We investigate the Courr\`{e}ge theorem in the context of linear operators $A$ that satisfy the positive maximum principle on a space of continuous functions over a symmetric space. Applications are given to Feller--Markov processes. We…

In this paper we establish some conditional limit theorems for some critical superprocesses $X=\{X_t, t\ge 0\}$. First we identify the rate of non-extinction. Then we show that, for a large class of functions $f$, conditioned on…
