The treatment of two-dimensional random walks in the quarter plane leads to Markov processes which involve semi-infinite matrices having Toeplitz or block Toeplitz structure plus a low-rank correction. Finding the steady state probability…

Previously, an explicit solution for the time evolution of the Wigner function was presented in terms of auxiliary phase space coordinates which obey simple equations that are analogous with, but not identical to, the classical equations of…

We consider an operator $P_V=(1+V)P$ on $\ell^2(Z^d)$, where $P$ is the transition operator of a symmetric irreducible random walk, and $V$ is a ``sparse'' potential. We first characterize the essential spectra of this operator. Secondly,…

We consider a continuous-time branching random walk on $\mathbb{Z}$ in a random non homogeneous environment. Particles can walk on the lattice points or disappear with random intensities. The process starts with one particle at initial time…

A multi-type continuous state and continuous time branching process with immigration satisfying some moment conditions is identified as a pathwise unique strong solution of certain stochastic differential equation with jumps.

We study two types of stochastic processes, a mean-field spatial system of interacting Fisher-Wright diffusions with an inferior and an advantageous type with rare mutation (inferior to advantageous) and a (mean-field) spatial system of…

This paper studies the stochastic optimal control of jump-diffusion processes and the associated fully nonlinear backward stochastic Hamilton--Jacobi--Bellman (BSHJB) equations. We establish the dynamic programming principle (DPP) via…

We devise a protocol to build 1D time-dependent quantum walks in 1D maximizing the spatial spread throughout the procedure. We allow only one of the physical parameters of the coin-tossing operator to vary, i.e. the angle $\theta$, such…

This paper develops ideas from a previous paper described as `an appetizer for non-linear Wiener--Hopf theory', but is completely independent of that paper. It again considers only the simplest possible case in which the underlying motion…

Spatially and temporally inhomogeneous evolution of one-dimensional vicious walkers with wall restriction is studied. We show that its continuum version is equivalent with a noncolliding system of stochastic processes called Brownian…

In this work, we study the large deviation properties of random walk in a random environment on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ with $d\geq1$. We start with the quenched case, take the point of view of the particle, and prove the large deviation principle…

We propose a novel heuristic quantum algorithm for the Minimum Vertex Cover (MVC) problem based on continuous-time quantum walks (CTQWs). In this framework, the coherent propagation of a quantum walker over a graph encodes its structural…

In this work, we study ergodicity of continuous time Markov processes on state space $\mathbb{R}_{\geq 0} := [0,\infty)$ obtained as unique strong solutions to stochastic equations with jumps. Our first main result establishes exponential…

A relativistic Wigner function for free Discrete Time Quantum Walks (DTQWs) on the square $2D$ space-time lattice is defined. Useful concepts such as discrete derivatives and discrete distributions are also introduced. The transport…

We investigate a branching random walk where the displacements are independent from the branching mechanism and have a stretched exponential distribution. We describe the positions of the particles in the vicinity of the rightmost particle…

Random walks describe diffusion processes, where movement at every time step is restricted to only the neighbouring locations. We construct a quantum random walk algorithm, based on discretisation of the Dirac evolution operator inspired by…

The paper gives some properties of hitting times and an analogue of the Wiener-Hopf factorization for the Kendall random walk. We show also that the Williamson transform is the best tool for problems connected with the Kendall generalized…

We study a particle system with hopping (random walk) dynamics on the integer lattice $\mathbb Z^d$. The particles can exist in two states, active or inactive (sleeping); only the former can hop. The dynamics conserves the number of…

We revisit the problem of deriving the mean-field values of avalanche critical exponents in systems with absorbing states. These are well-known to coincide with those of an un-biased branching process. Here, we show that for at least 4…
