Fluid approximations have seen great success in approximating the macro-scale behaviour of Markov systems with a large number of discrete states. However, these methods rely on the continuous-time Markov chain (CTMC) having a particular…
A rescaled Markov chain converges uniformly in probability to the solution of an ordinary differential equation, under carefully specified assumptions. The presentation is much simpler than those in the outside literature. The result may be…
This paper deals with a nonhomogeneous scalar parabolic equation with possibly degenerate diffusion term; the process has only one stationary state. The equation can be interpreted as modeling collective movements (crowd dynamics, for…
This note studies a network of agents having continuous-time dynamics with quantized interactions and time-varying directed topology. Due to the discontinuity of the dynamics, solutions of the resulting ODE system are intended in the sense…
A unified treatment is given of some results of H. Donnelly-P. Li and L. Schwartz concerning the behaviour of heat semigroups on open manifolds with given compactifications, on one hand, and the relationship with the behaviour at infinity…
Let $Y$ be an Ornstein-Uhlenbeck diffusion governed by an ergodic finite state Markov process $X$: $dY_t=-\lambda(X_t)Y_tdt+\sigma(X_t)dB_t$, $Y_0$ given. Under ergodicity condition, we get quantitative estimates for the long time behavior…
Introduced by Bean and O'Reilly (2014), a stochastic fluid-fluid process is a Markov processes $\{X_t, Y_t, \varphi_t\}_{t \geq 0}$, where the first fluid $X_t$ is driven by the Markov chain $\varphi_t$, and the second fluid $Y_t$ is driven…
The time at which a one-dimensional continuous strong Markov process attains a boundary point of its state space is a discontinuous path functional and it is, therefore, unclear whether the exit time can be approximated by hitting times of…
We derive the hydrodynamic limit of a kinetic equation where the interactions in velocity are modelled by a linear operator (Fokker-Planck or Linear Boltzmann) and the force in the Vlasov term is a stochastic process with high amplitude and…
