We introduce a stochastic process and functional that should describe the semigroup generated by the stochastic Bessel operator. Recently Gorin and Shkolnikov showed that the largest eigenvalues for certain random matrix ensembles with soft…
We determine the operator limit for large powers of random tridiagonal matrices as the size of the matrix grows. The result provides a novel expression in terms of functionals of Brownian motions for the Laplace transform of the…
We develop an improved version of the stochastic semigroup approach to study the edge of $\beta$-ensembles pioneered by Gorin and Shkolnikov, and later extended to rank-one additive perturbations by the author and Shkolnikov. Our method is…
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…
Let $\Lambda=\{\Lambda_0,\Lambda_1,\Lambda_2,\ldots\}$ be the point process that describes the edge scaling limit of either (i) "regular" beta-ensembles with inverse temperature $\beta>0$, or (ii) the top eigenvalues of Wishart or Gaussian…
Given a large, high-dimensional sample from a spiked population, the top sample covariance eigenvalue is known to exhibit a phase transition. We show that the largest eigenvalues have asymptotic distributions near the phase transition in…
We investigate the characteristic polynomials of the Gaussian $\beta$-ensemble for general $\beta>0$ through its transfer matrix recurrence. We show that the rescaled characteristic polynomial converges to a random entire function in a…

Let $ H:=-\tfrac12\Delta+V$ be a one-dimensional continuum Schr\"odinger operator. Consider ${\hat H}:= H+\xi$, where $\xi$ is a translation invariant Gaussian noise. Under some assumptions on $\xi$, we prove that if $V$ is locally…
In previous work, a description of the result of applying the Householder tridiagonalization algorithm to a G$\beta$E random matrix is provided by Edelman and Dumitriu. The resulting tridiagonal ensemble makes sense for all $\beta>0$, and…
This work develops further a probabilist approach to the asymptotic behavior of growth-fragmentation semigroups via the Feynman-Kac formula, which was introduced in a joint article with A.R. Watson [4]. Here, it is first shown that the…
The stochastic Airy and sine operators, which are respectively a random Sturm-Liouville operator and a random Dirac operator, characterize the soft edge and bulk scaling limits of $\beta$-ensembles. Dirac and Sturm-Liouville operators are…
The top eigenvalues of rank $r$ spiked real Wishart matrices and additively perturbed Gaussian orthogonal ensembles are known to exhibit a phase transition in the large size limit. We show that they have limiting distributions for…
We show that at any location away from the spectral edge, the eigenvalues of the Gaussian unitary ensemble and its general beta siblings converge to Sine_beta, a translation invariant point process. This process has a geometric description…
We study large deviations principles for $ N $ random processes on the lattice $ \Z^d $ with finite time horizon $ [0,\beta] $ under a symmetrised measure where all initial and terminal points are uniformly given by a random permutation.…
We consider the continuous parabolic Anderson model with the Gaussian fields under the measure-valued initial conditions, the covariances of which are nonhomogeneous in time and fractional rough in space. We mainly study the spatial…
We prove Feynman-Kac formulas for solutions to elliptic and parabolic boundary value and obstacle problems associated with a general Markov diffusion process. Our diffusion model covers several popular stochastic volatility models, such as…
We construct a one-parameter family of infinite line ensembles on $[0, \infty)$ that are natural half-space analogues of the Airy line ensemble. Away from the origin these ensembles are locally described by avoiding Brownian bridges, and…
In this paper we investigate the speed of convergence of the fluctuations of a general class of Feynman-Kac particle approximation models. We design an original approach based on new Berry-Esseen type estimates for abstract martingale…
We show that Sine$_\beta$, the bulk limit of the Gaussian $\beta$-ensembles is the spectrum of a self-adjoint random differential operator \[ f\to 2 {R_t^{-1}} \left[ \begin{array}{cc} 0 &-\tfrac{d}{dt} \tfrac{d}{dt} &0 \end{array} \right]…
