In this article we present three robust instability mechanisms for linear and nonlinear inverse problems. All of these are based on strong compression properties (in the sense of singular value or entropy number bounds) which we deduce…

We establish almost sure invariance principles, a strong form of approximation by Brownian motion, for non-stationary time-series arising as observations on dynamical systems. Our examples include observations on sequential expanding maps,…

We proposed in \cite{bl2} a new approach to prove the metastable behavior of reversible dynamics based on potential theory and local ergodicity. In this article we extend this theory to nonreversible dynamics based on the Dirichlet…

The detection of variations of fundamental constants of the Standard Model would provide us with compelling evidence of new physics, and could lift the veil on the nature of dark matter and dark energy. In this work, we discuss how a…

We study a class of non-reversible, continuous-time random walks in random environments on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ that admit a cycle representation with finite cycle length. The law of the transition rates, taking values in $[0, \infty)$, is…

For a simple electromagnetic model of a clock introduced by Jefimenko (clock $\#$ 1 in 1996 {\it Am. J. Phys.} {\bf 64} 812), a change of the rate of the clock when it is set in uniform motion is calculated exactly, employing the correct…

This paper studies finite-time stability and instability theorems in probability sense for stochastic nonlinear systems. Firstly, a new sufficient condition is proposed to guarantee that the considered system has a global solution.…

We present a derivation of the structure and dynamics of a ticking clock by showing that for finite systems a single natural principle serves to distinguish what we understand as ticking clocks from time-keeping systems in general. As a…

Inspired by \citet{Berkes14} and \citet{Wu07}, we prove an almost sure invariance principle for stationary $\beta-$mixing stochastic processes defined on Hilbert space. Our result can be applied to Markov chain satisfying Meyn-Tweedie type…

We study a distributed particle filter proposed by Boli\'c et al.~(2005). This algorithm involves $m$ groups of $M$ particles, with interaction between groups occurring through a "local exchange" mechanism. We establish a central limit…

We propose Markov two-components processes (M2CP) as a probabilistic model of asynchronous systems based on the trace semantics for concurrency. Considering an asynchronous system distributed over two sites, we introduce concepts and tools…

The special relativistic test theory of Mansouri and Sexl is sketched. Theories based on different clock synchronisations are found to be equivalent to special relativity, as regards experimental results. The conventionality of clock…

Much recent progress has been achieved for stabilization of linear and nonlinear systems with input delays that are long and dependent on either time or the plant state---provided the dependence is known. In this paper we consider the delay…
