Recent work incorporating geometric ideas in Markov chain Monte Carlo is reviewed in order to highlight these advances and their possible application in a range of domains beyond Statistics. A full exposition of Markov chains and their use…
This note presents conjectures on polynomial/algebraic/sub-exponential convergence of transition probabilities for $\lambda$-null recurrent and $\lambda$-transient Markov chains in continuous time. The only known positive examples are in…
We provide two new constructions of Markov chains which had previously arisen from the representation theory of the infinite-dimensional unitary group. The first construction uses the combinatorial rule for the Littlewood-Richardson…
We consider the Maxwell-Schr\"odinger equations in the Coulomb gauge describing the interaction of extended fermions with their self-generated electromagnetic field. They heuristically emerge as mean-field equations from non-relativistic…
Methods from additive number theory are applied to construct families of finitely generated linear semigroups with intermediate growth.
There are three approaches in the current social network analysis study: Graph Representation, Content Mining, and Semantic Analysis. Graph Representation has been used for analyzing social network topology, structural modeling,…
We provide a simple proof of the Holonomy Theorem using a new Lyndon-Chiswell length function on the Karnofsky-Rhodes expansion of a semigroup. Unexpectedly, we have both a left and a right action on the Chiswell tree by elliptic maps.
Current concepts of neural networks have emerged over two centuries of progress beginning with the neural doctrine to the idea of neural cell assemblies. Presently the model of neural networks involves distributed neural circuits of nodes,…
Imprecise continuous-time Markov chains are a robust type of continuous-time Markov chains that allow for partially specified time-dependent parameters. Computing inferences for them requires the solution of a non-linear differential…
Many complex systems exhibit interactions that depend not only on pairwise connections, but also group structures and memory effects. To capture such effects, we develop a unified tensor framework for modeling higher-order Markov chains…
We examine data-processing of Markov chains through the lens of information geometry. We first establish a theory of congruent Markov morphisms within the framework of stochastic matrices. Specifically, we introduce and justify the concept…
In this work, we consider an inhomogeneous (discrete time) Markov chain and are interested in its long time behavior. We provide sufficient conditions to ensure that some of its asymptotic properties can be related to the ones of a…
We apply Takesaki's and Connes's ideas on structure analysis for type III factors to the study of links (a short term of Markov kernels) appearing in asymptotic representation theory.
In this paper a new proof is given for the supermodularity of information content. Using the decomposability of the information content an algorithm is given for discovering the Markov network graph structure endowed by the pairwise Markov…
Let $(\xi_n)_{n=0}^\infty$ be a nonhomogeneous Markov chain taking values from finite state-space of $\mathbf{X}=\{1,2,\ldots,b\}$. In this paper, we will study the generalized entropy ergodic theorem with almost-everywhere and…
An extension of the Artin Braid Group with new operators that generate double and triple intersections is considered. The extended Alexander theorem, relating intersecting closed braids and intersecting knots is proved for double and triple…
We study the existence of densities for distributions of piecewise deterministic Markov processes. We also obtain relationships between invariant densities of the continuous time process and that of the process observed at jump times. In…
In this paper we obtain some noncommutative multiplier theorems and maximal inequalities on semigroups. As applications, we obtain the corresponding individual ergodic theorems. Our main results extend some classical results of Stein and…
In this paper, we start by showing that the intertwining relationship between two minimal Markov semigroups acting on Hilbert spaces implies that any recurrent extensions, in the sense of It\^o, of these semigroups satisfy the same…
This paper proposes a novel representation of decomposable graphs based on semi-latent tree-dependent bipartite graphs. The novel representation has two main benefits. First, it enables a form of sub-clustering within maximal cliques of the…
