A general method is proposed which allows one to estimate drift and diffusion coefficients of a stochastic process governed by a Langevin equation. It extends a previously devised approach [R. Friedrich et al., Physics Letters A 271, 217…
New weak and strong existence and weak and strong uniqueness results for multi-dimensional stochastic McKean--Vlasov equations are established under relaxed regularity conditions. Weak existence is a variation of Krylov's weak existence for…
We introduce a Langevin equation characterized by a time dependent drift. By assuming a temporal power-law dependence of the drift we show that a great variety of behavior is observed in the dynamics of the variance of the process. In…
This paper proves that contractive ordinary differential equation systems remain contractive when diffusion is added. Thus, diffusive instabilities, in the sense of the Turing phenomenon, cannot arise for such systems. An important…
