The zero range process is of particular importance as a generic model for domain wall dynamics of one-dimensional systems far from equilibrium. We study this process in one dimension with rates which induce an effective attraction between…
In this work we derive multi-level concentration inequalities for polynomial functions in independent random variables with a $\alpha$-sub-exponential tail decay. A particularly interesting case is given by quadratic forms $f(X_1, \ldots,…
We review some theories of non-equilibrium Bose-Einstein condensates in potentials, in particular of the Bose-Einstein condensate of polaritons. We discuss such condensates, which are steady-states established through a balance of gain and…
For a compact convex set $K$ and a Poisson point process $\eta$, the union of all Voronoi cells with a nucleus in $K$ is the Poisson-Voronoi approximation of $K$. Lower and upper bounds for the variance and a central limit theorem for the…
We consider the Poisson cylinder model in ${\mathbb R}^d$, $d\ge 3$. We show that given any two cylinders ${\mathfrak c}_1$ and ${\mathfrak c}_2$ in the process, there is a sequence of at most $d-2$ other cylinders creating a connection…
This paper deals with U-statistics of Poisson processes and multiple Wiener-It\^o integrals on the Poisson space. Via sharp bounds on the cumulants for both classes of random variables, moderate deviation principles, concentration…
We investigate the effect of excluded volume interactions on the electrolyte distribution around a charged macroion. First, we introduce a criterion for determining when hard-core effects should be taken into account beyond standard mean…
It is shown that a suspension of particles in a partially-filled, horizontal, rotating cylinder is linearly unstable towards axial segregation and an undulation of the free surface at large enough particle concentrations. Relying on the…
In this paper, we consider four integrable models of directed polymers for which the free energy is known to exhibit KPZ fluctuations. A common framework for the analysis of these models was introduced in our recent work on the…
Volume-fraction expressions are obtained for the systems of an infinite number of parallel planes arranged both regularly and randomly. As a special case of random arrangement, a non-Poissonian point process (the second-order Erlang…
A stationary Boolean model is the union set of random compact particles which are attached to the points of a stationary Poisson point process. For a stationary Boolean model with convex grains we consider a recently developed collection of…
The ionic conductivity of mixed alkali glasses exhibits a deep minimum as a function of the relative concentrations of the two alkali ions. To study this behaviour we consider a simple one-dimensional model for asymmetric diffusion of two…
The effect of concentration on coil-stretch hysteresis in extensional flows of polymer solutions is examined with insights from Brownian dynamics simulations of isolated chains and scaling theory for non-dilute solutions. In the hysteresis…
We obtain moment and Gaussian bounds for general Lipschitz functions evaluated along the sample path of a Markov chain. We treat Markov chains on general (possibly unbounded) state spaces via a coupling method. If the first moment of the…
We show that under certain assumptions one can derive a variant of Specker's non-contextual inequality for a system of three indistinguishable bosonic particles. The inequality states that the sum of probabilities of three pairwise…
The concentration dependence of the excluded volume effects in polymer solutions is investigated. Through thermodynamic arguments for the interpenetration of polymer segments and the free energy change, we show that the disappearance of the…
We prove a sequence of limiting results about weakly dependent stationary and regularly varying stochastic processes in discrete time. After deducing the limiting distribution for individual clusters of extremes, we present a new type of…
The Poisson distribution of order $k$ is a special case of a compound Poisson distribution. Its mean and variance are known, but results for its median and mode are difficult to obtain, although a few cases have been solved and upper/lower…
We study visibility inside the vacant set of three models in $\mathbb R^d$ with slow decay of spatial correlations: Brownian interlacements, Poisson cylinders and Boolean model. For each of them, we obtain sharp asymptotic bounds on the…
This paper deals with Poisson processes on an arbitrary measurable space. Using a direct approach, we derive formulae for moments and cumulants of a vector of multiple Wiener-It\^o integrals with respect to the compensated Poisson process.…
