The Central Limit Theorem (CLT) establishes that sufficiently large sequences of independent and identically distributed random variables converge in probability to a normal distribution. This makes the CLT a fundamental building block of…
Emergence of new diseases and elimination of existing diseases is a key public health issue. In mathematical models of epidemics, such phenomena involve the process of infections and recoveries passing through a critical threshold where the…
We consider the fractal Sierpi\'{n}ski gasket or carpet graph in dimension $d\geq 2,$ denoted by $G$. At time $0$, we place a Poisson point process of particles onto the graph and let them perform independent simple random walks, which in…
Recently, Bogu\~{n}\'{a} {\it et. al.} [Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 111}, 068701 (2013), arXiv:1305.4819] claimed that the epidemic threshold of the susceptible-infected-susceptible (SIS) model is zero on random scale-free (SF) networks with the…
In this article we derive a self-normalized functional limit theorem for strictly stationary linear processes with i.i.d. heavy-tailed innovations and random coefficients under the condition that all partial sums of the series of…
We study a discrete Susceptible-Infected-Recovered (SIR) model for the spread of infectious disease on a homogeneous tree and the limit behavior of the model in the case when the tree vertex degree tends to infinity. We obtain the…
We study the spreading of a disease on top of structured scale-free networks recently introduced. By means of numerical simulations we analyze the SIS and the SIR models. Our results show that when the connectivity fluctuations of the…
We study a simple model of epidemics where an infected node transmits the infection to its neighbors independently with probability $p$. This is also known as the independent cascade or Susceptible-Infected-Recovered (SIR) model with fixed…
Infections diseases are marked by recovering time distributions which can be far from the exponential one associated with Markovian/Poisson processes, broadly applied in epidemic compartmental models. In the present work, we tackled this…
Suppose $X = (X_x, x$ in $Z^d)$ is a family of i.i.d. variables in some measurable space, $B_0$ is a bounded set in $R^d$, and for $t > 1$, $H_t$ is a measure on $tB_0$ determined by the restriction of $X$ to lattice sites in or adjacent to…
We investigate branching processes in nearly degenerate varying environment, where the offspring distribution converges to the degenerate distribution at 1. Such processes die out almost surely, therefore, we condition on non-extinction or…
We propose a formalism to analyze discrete stochastic processes with finite-state-level N. By using an (N+1)-dimensional representation of su(2) Lie algebra, we re-express the master equation to a time-evolution equation for the state…
In previous work, we developed the scaled SIS process, which models the dynamics of SIS epidemics over networks. With the scaled SIS process, we can consider networks that are finite-sized and of arbitrary topology (i.e., we are not…
We study the susceptible-infective-recovered (SIR) epidemic on a random graph chosen uniformly subject to having given vertex degrees. In this model infective vertices infect each of their susceptible neighbours, and recover, at a constant…
We develop a new structured compartmental model for the coevolutionary dynamics between susceptible and infectious individuals in heterogeneous SI epidemiological systems. In this model, the susceptible compartment is structured by a…
We prove a quenched functional central limit theorem (quenched FCLT) for the sums of a random field (r.f.) along a Z d-random walk in different frameworks: probabilistic (when the r.f. is i.i.d. or a moving average of i.i.d. random…
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.…
In this paper we show a functional central limit theorem for the sum of the first $\lfloor t n \rfloor$ diagonal elements of $f(Z)$ as a function in $t$, for $Z$ a random real symmetric or complex Hermitian $n\times n$ matrix. The result…
The quasi-deterministic limit of the generic extinction transition is considered within the framework of standard epidemiological models. The susceptible-infected-susceptible (SIS) model is known to exhibit a transition from extinction to…
We provide an empirical process theory for locally stationary processes over nonsmooth function classes. An important novelty over other approaches is the use of the flexible functional dependence measure to quantify dependence. A…
