Maximal couplings are (probabilistic) couplings of Markov processes such that the tail probabilities of the coupling time attain the total variation lower bound (Aldous bound) uniformly for all time. Markovian (or immersion) couplings are…

We present a novel approach of coupling two multidimensional and non-degenerate It\^o processes $(X_t)$ and $(Y_t)$ which follow dynamics with different drifts. Our coupling is sticky in the sense that there is a stochastic process $(r_t)$,…

We show how to build an immersion coupling of a two-dimensional Brownian motion $(W_1, W_2)$ along with $\binom{n}{2} + n= \tfrac12n(n+1)$ integrals of the form $\int W_1^iW_2^j \circ dW_2$, where $j=1,\ldots,n$ and $i=0, \ldots, n-j$ for…

We study the spectrum of the kinetic Brownian motion in the space of $d\times d$ Hermitian matrices, $d\geq2$. We show that the eigenvalues stay distinct for all times, and that the process $\Lambda$ of eigenvalues is a kinetic diffusion…

Consider a system $X = ((x_\xi(t)), \xi \in \Omega_N)_{t \geq 0}$ of interacting Fleming-Viot diffusions with mutation and selection which is a strong Markov process with continuous paths and state space $(\CP(\I))^{\Omega_N}$, where $\I$…

When two Markov operators commute, it suggests that we can couple two copies of one of the corresponding processes. We explicitly construct a number of couplings of this type for a commuting family of Markov processes on the set of…

We study three classes of continuous time Markov processes (inclusion process, exclusion process, independent walkers) and a family of interacting diffusions (Brownian energy process). For each model we define a boundary driven process…

We study a family of essentially pairwise independent Brownian motions indexed by a continuum of labels and show how the Fubini extension framework provides a rigorous way to represent such families as a single jointly measurable process.…

Let $Mat_{\mathbb{C}}(K,N)$ be the space of $K\times N$ complex matrices. Let $\mathbf{B}_t$ be Brownian motion on $Mat_{\mathbb{C}}(K,N)$ starting from the zero matrix and $\mathbf{M}\in Mat_{\mathbb{C}}(K,N)$. We prove that, with $K\ge…

In this paper we derive intertwining relations for a broad class of conservative particle systems both in discrete and continuous setting. Using the language of point process theory, we are able to derive a natural framework in which…

For every bounded planar domain $D$ with a smooth boundary, we define a `Lyapunov exponent' $\Lambda(D)$ using a fairly explicit formula. We consider two reflected Brownian motions in $D$, driven by the same Brownian motion (i.e., a…

A dynamical treatment of Markovian diffusion is presented and several applications discussed. The stochastic interpretation of quantum mechanics is considered within this framework. A model for Brownian movement which includes second order…

The symbiotic branching model is a spatial population model describing the dynamics of two interacting types that can only branch if both types are present. A classical result for the underlying stochastic partial differential equation…

We discuss the possible candidates for conformally invariant random non-self-crossing curves which begin and end on the boundary of a multiply connected planar domain, and which satisfy a Markovian-type property. We consider both, the case…

We construct optimal Markov couplings of L\'{e}vy processes, whose L\'evy (jump) measure has an absolutely continuous component. The construction is based on properties of subordinate Brownian motions and the coupling of Brownian motions by…

Consider all the possible ways of coupling together two Brownian motions with the same starting position but with different drifts onto the same probability space. It is known that there exist couplings which make these processes agree for…

We use the system-plus-reservoir approach to study the dynamics of a system composed of two independent Brownian particles. We present an extension of the well-known model of a bath of oscillators which is capable of inducing an effective…

We use computer simulations to test a simple idea for mapping between long-time self diffusivities obtained from molecular and Brownian dynamics. The strategy we explore is motivated by the behavior of fluids comprising particles that…

A maximal coupling of two diffusion processes makes two diffusion particles meet as early as possible. We study the uniqueness of maximal couplings under a sort of "reflection structure" which ensures the existence of such couplings. In…
