For n + 1 particles moving independently on a straight line, we study the question of how long the leading position of one of them can last. Our focus is the asymptotics of the probability p(T,n) that the leader time will exceed T when n…
We study the local mass of a dyadic branching Brownian motion $Z$ evolving in $\mathbb{R}^d$. By 'local mass,' we refer to the number of particles of $Z$ that fall inside a ball with fixed radius and time-dependent center, lying in the…
We consider a class of branching-selection particle systems on $\R$ similar to the one considered by E. Brunet and B. Derrida in their 1997 paper "Shift in the velocity of a front due to a cutoff". Based on numerical simulations and…
Continuous determinantal point processes (DPPs) are a class of repulsive point processes on $\mathbb{R}^d$ with many statistical applications. Although an explicit expression of their density is known, it is too complicated to be used…
We study the shape of the outer envelope of a branching Brownian motion (BBM) in $\mathbb{R}^d$, $d\geq 2$. We focus on the extremal particles: those whose norm is within $O(1)$ of the maximal norm amongst the particles alive at time $t$.…
We revisit the ergodic theorem for the frontier of branching Brownian motion (BBM). Motivated by the proof of Arguin, Bovier, and Kistler \cite{arguin2012ergodic}, we provide a shorter and more direct argument. It relies on two…
In this thesis, branching Brownian motion (BBM) is a random particle system where the particles diffuse on the real line according to Brownian motions and branch at constant rate into a random number of particles with expectation greater…
It is known from Bramson (1983) that the maximum of branching Brownian motion at time $t$ is asymptotically around an explicit function $m_t$, which involves a first ballistic order and a logarithmic correction. In this paper, we give an…
Let $N(t)$ be the collection of particles alive at time $t$ in a branching Brownian motion in $\mathbb{R}^d$, and for $u\in N(t)$, let $\mathbf{X}_u(t)$ be the position of particle $u$ at time $t$. For $\theta\in \mathbb{R}^d$, we define…
We investigate the large deviation probabilities of first passage times (FPT) of discrete-time supercritical non-lattice branching random walks (BRWs) in $\mathbb{R}^d$ where $d\geq 1$. The FPT refers to the first time the BRW enters a ball…
We consider a branching Brownian motion in which binary fission takes place only when particles are at the origin at a rate \beta > 0 on the local time scale. We obtain results regarding the asymptotic behaviour of the number of particles…
We investigate the long-time behavior of a $d-$dimensional supercritical branching Brownian motion with a compactly supported branching potential. It is known that, for $\mathbf{v}\in \mathbb{R}^d$, all the moments of the normalized number…
We show that the longitudinal position $x(t)$ of a particle in a $(d+1)$-dimensional layered random velocity field (the Matheron-de Marsily model) can be identified as a fractional Brownian motion (fBm) characterized by a variable Hurst…
We consider a branching-selection system of particles on the real line that evolves according to the following rules: each particle moves according to a Brownian motion during an exponential lifetime and then splits into two new particles…
We consider a discrete-time branching random walk defined on the real line, which is assumed to be supercritical and in the boundary case. It is known that its leftmost position of the $n$-th generation behaves asymptotically like…
Particle approximations for certain nonlinear and nonlocal reaction-diffusion equations are studied using a system of Brownian motions with killing. The system is described by a collection of i.i.d. Brownian particles where each particle is…
We study Brownian motion in a drifted Brownian potential in the subexponential regime. We prove that the annealed probability of deviating below the almost sure speed has a polynomial rate of decay and compute the exponent in this power…
We study the large distance behavior of a steady distribution of two Brownian particles under external driving in a two-dimensional space. Employing a method of perturbative system reduction, we analyze a Fokker-Planck equation that…
We study the large scale behaviour of a population consisting of two types which evolve in dimension d = 1, 2 according to a spatial Lambda- Fleming-Viot process subject to random time-independent selection. If one of the two types is rare…
The asymptotic wave speed for FKPP type reaction-diffusion equations on a class of infinite random metric trees are considered. We show that a travelling wavefront emerges, provided that the reaction rate is large enough. The wavefront…
