Diffusion probabilistic models have been successfully used to generate data from noise. However, most diffusion models are computationally expensive and difficult to interpret with a lack of theoretical justification. Random feature models…

Let $\alpha_m$ and $\beta_n$ be two sequences of real numbers supported on $[M, 2M]$ and $[N, 2N]$ with $M = X^{1/2 - \delta}$ and $N = X^{1/2 + \delta}$. We show that there exists a $\delta_0 > 0$ such that the multiplicative convolution…

Recently a new type of central limit theorem for belief functions was given in Epstein et al. [9]. In this paper, we generalize the central limit theorem in Epstein et al. [9] to accommodate general bounded random variables. These results…

This ia a companion paper to Almost, Lehoczky, Shreve & Yu \cite{ALSY}, where the rationale for studying the diffusion limit of Poisson limit-order book models is explained and the results of a particular "representative" model are…

We discuss some extensions of results from the recent paper by Chernoyarov et al. (Ann. Inst. Stat. Math., October 2016) concerning limit distributions of Bayesian and maximum likelihood estimators in the model "signal plus white noise"…

We establish some limit theorems for quasi-arithmetic means of random variables. This class of means contains the arithmetic, geometric and harmonic means. Our feature is that the generators of quasi-arithmetic means are allowed to be…

We rigorously derive non-equilibrium space-time fluctuation for the particle density of a system of reflected diffusions in bounded Lipschitz domains in $\mathbb R^d$. The particles are independent and are killed by a time-dependent…

Diffusion processes arise in many fields, and so simulating the path of a diffusion is an important problem. It is usually necessary to make some sort of approximation via model-discretization, but a recently introduced class of algorithms,…

The skew-product diffusion [Ann. Appl. Probab. 35, 3150--3214 (2025)] and exponentially tilted planar Brownian motion [Electron. J. Probab. 30, 1--97 (2025)] are canonical examples of planar diffusions with a point interaction at the origin…

We establish the asymptotic theory in quantile autoregression when the model parameter is specified with respect to moderate deviations from the unit boundary of the form (1 + c / k) with a convergence sequence that diverges at a rate…

The long-wavelength, weak-dispersion limit of the discrete nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation with long-range dispersion is analytically considered. This continuum approximation is carried out irrespective of the dispersion range and hence…

We consider a diffusion process with coefficients that are periodic outside of an 'interface region' of finite thickness. The question investigated in the articles [1,2] is the limiting long time / large scale behaviour of such a process…

We introduce and study a class of probabilistic generative models, where the latent object is a finite-dimensional diffusion process on a finite time interval and the observed variable is drawn conditionally on the terminal point of the…

We develop theory to understand an intriguing property of diffusion models for image generation that we term critical windows. Empirically, it has been observed that there are narrow time intervals in sampling during which particular…

Keller-Segel systems in two and three space dimensions with an additional cross-diffusion term in the equation for the chemical concentration are analyzed. The cross-diffusion term has a stabilizing effect and leads to the global-in-time…

We study the existence of Feller semigroups arising in the theory of multidimensional diffusion processes. We study bounded perturbations of elliptic operators with boundary conditions containing an integral over the closure of the domain…

We study the minimal random walk introduced by Kumar, Harbola and Lindenberg. It is a random process on $\{0, 1, \ldots \}$ with unbounded memory which exhibits subdiffusive, diffusive and superdiffusive regimes. We prove the law of large…

We consider the classical problem of particle diffusion in $d$-dimensional radially-symmetric systems with absorbing boundaries. A key quantity to characterise such diffusive transport is the evolution of the proportion of particles…

This paper provides an elementary, self-contained analysis of diffusion-based sampling methods for generative modeling. In contrast to existing approaches that rely on continuous-time processes and then discretize, our treatment works…
