We study the one-dimensional projection of the extremal Gibbs measures of the two-dimensional Ising model, the "Schonmann projection". These measures are known to be non-Gibbsian at low temperatures, since their conditional probabilities as…
This paper addresses the issue of inversion in cases where (1) the observation system is modeled by a linear transformation and additive noise, (2) the problem is ill-posed and regularization is introduced in a Bayesian framework by an a…
We are interested in the study of Gibbs and equilbrium probabilities on the lattice $\mathbb{R}^{\mathbb{N}}$. Consider the unilateral full-shift defined on the non-compact set $\mathbb{R}^{\mathbb{N}}$ and an $\alpha$-H\"older continuous…
Consider a continuous time Markov chain with rates Q in the state space \Lambda\cup\{0\} with 0 as an absorbing state. In the associated Fleming-Viot process N particles evolve independently in \Lambda with rates Q until one of them…
We study spatial permutations with cycle weights that are bounded or slowly diverging. We show that a phase transition occurs at an explicit critical density. The long cycles are macroscopic and their cycle lengths satisfy a…
On a finite graph, there is a natural family of Boltzmann probability measures on cycle-rooted spanning forests, parametrized by weights on cycles. For a certain subclass of those weights, we construct Gibbs measures in infinite volume, as…
It is argued that a Gibbsian formula for the space-time distribution of microscopic trajectories of a nonequilibrium system provides a unifying framework for recent results on the fluctuations of the entropy production. The variable entropy…
We use representation theory of the symmetric group S_n to prove Poisson limit theorems for the distribution of fixed points for three types of non-uniform permutations. First, we give results for the commutator of g and x where g and x are…
The Papangelou intensities of determinantal (or fermion) point processes are investigated. These exhibit a monotonicity property expressing the repulsive nature of the interaction, and satisfy a bound implying stochastic domination by a…
We consider continuous-time birth-and-death dynamics in $\mathbb{R}^d$ that admit at least one infinite-volume Gibbs point process based on area interactions as a reversible measure. For a large class of starting measures, we show that the…
Many matching, tracking, sorting, and ranking problems require probabilistic reasoning about possible permutations, a set that grows factorially with dimension. Combinatorial optimization algorithms may enable efficient point estimation,…
\noindent In our contribution to this volume we deal with \emph{discrete} symmetries: these are symmetries based upon groups with a discrete set of elements (generally a set of elements that can be enumerated by the positive integers). In…
Generalizations to the permutation test are introduced to allow for situations in which the null model is not exchangeable. It is shown that the generalized permutation tests are exact, and a partial converse: that any test function that is…
We consider two related problems arising from a question of R. Graham on quasirandom phenomena in permutation patterns. A ``pattern'' in a permutation $\sigma$ is the order type of the restriction of $\sigma : [n] \to [n]$ to a subset $S…
Let $\sigma$ be a non-atomic, infinite Radon measure on $\mathbb R^d$, for example, $d\sigma(x)=z\,dx$ where $z>0$. We consider a system of freely independent particles $x_1,\dots,x_N$ in a bounded set $\Lambda\subset\mathbb R^d$, where…
Starting from the full--shift on a finite alphabet $A$, mingling some symbols of $A$, we obtain a new full shift on a smaller alphabet $B$. This amalgamation defines a factor map from $(A^{\mathbb N},T_A)$ to $(B^{\mathbb N},T_B)$, where…
Consider a stationary renewal point process on the real line and divide each of the segments it defines in a proportion given by \iid realisations of a fixed distribution $G$ supported by [0,1]. We ask ourselves for which interpoint…
We study the large deviations for focusing Gibbs measures by analyzing the asymptotic behavior of the free energy in the infinite volume limit. This is the invariant Gibbs measure for the dynamical $\Phi^3_2$-models. From our sharp…
Gibbs sampling repeatedly samples from the conditional distribution of one variable, x_i, given other variables, either choosing i randomly, or updating sequentially using some systematic or random order. When x_i is discrete, a Gibbs…
We consider the statistical mechanics of a classical particle in a one-dimensional box subjected to a random potential which constitutes a Wiener process on the coordinate axis. The distribution of the free energy and all correlation…
