Multiple orthogonal polynomials with respect to two weights on the step-line are considered. A connection between different dual spectral matrices, one banded (recursion matrix) and one Hessenberg, respectively, and the Gauss-Borel…

Random walks are a fundamental model in applied mathematics and are a common example of a Markov chain. The limiting stationary distribution of the Markov chain represents the fraction of the time spent in each state during the stochastic…
We consider UL and LU stochastic factorizations of the transition probability matrix of a random walk on the integers, which is a doubly infinite tridiagonal stochastic Jacobi matrix. We give conditions on the free parameter of both…
Inspired by the classical spectral analysis of birth-death chains using orthogonal polynomials, we study an analogous set of constructions in the context of open quantum dynamics and related walks. In such setting, block tridiagonal…
Random walks in a finite Abelian group $G$ are studied. They use Markov chains with doubly stochastic transition matrices, in a Birkhoff subpolytope ${\cal B}(G)$ associated with the group $G$. It is shown that all future probability…
We consider UL (and LU) decompositions of the one-step transition probability matrix of a random walk with state space the nonnegative integers, with the condition that both upper and lower triangular matrices in the factorization are also…
We develop a general theory of Markov chains realizable as random walks on $\mathscr R$-trivial monoids. It provides explicit and simple formulas for the eigenvalues of the transition matrix, for multiplicities of the eigenvalues via…
We consider random walks on the support of a random purely atomic measure on $\mathbb{R}^d$ with random jump probability rates. The jump range can be unbounded. The purely atomic measure is reversible for the random walk and stationary for…
The recurrence features of persistent random walks built from variable length Markov chains are investigated. We observe that these stochastic processes can be seen as L{\'e}vy walks for which the persistence times depend on some internal…
The random walk with hyperbolic probabilities that we are introducing is an example of stochastic diffusion in a one-dimensional heterogeneous media. Although driven by site-dependent one-step transition probabilities, the process retains…
A new model maps a quantum random walk described by a Hadamard operator to a particular case of a birth and death process. The model is represented by a 2D Markov chain with a stochastic matrix, i.e., all the transition rates are positive,…
We study a random walk on a complex of finitely many half-lines joined at a common origin; jumps are heavy-tailed and of two types, either one-sided (towards the origin) or two-sided (symmetric). Transmission between half-lines via the…
The random walk to be considered takes place in the d- spherical dual of the group U(n + 1), for a fixed finite dimensional irreducible representation d of U(n). The transition matrix comes from the three term recursion relation satisfied…
We give a probabilistic interpretation of the associated Jacobi polynomials, which can be constructed from the three-term recurrence relation for the classical Jacobi polynomials by shifting the integer index $n$ by a real number $t$. Under…
