In this paper, we prove a limit set intersection theorem in relatively hyperbolic groups. Our approach is based on a study of dynamical quasiconvexity of relatively quasiconvex subgroups. Using dynamical quasiconvexity, many well-known…
We consider independent long-range percolation models on locally finite vertex-transitive graphs. Using coupling ideas we prove strict monotonicity of the critical points with respect to local perturbations in the connection function,…
Interacting particle systems can often be constructed from a graphical representation, by applying local maps at the times of associated Poisson processes. This leads to a natural coupling of systems started in different initial states. We…
Traffic flow is a very prominent example of a driven non-equilibrium system. A characteristic phenomenon of traffic dynamics is the spontaneous and abrupt drop of the average velocity on a stretch of road leading to congestion. Such a…
We introduce a family of lattice-gas models of flocking, whose thermodynamically consistent dynamics admits a proper equilibrium limit at vanishing self-propulsion. These models are amenable to an exact coarse-graining which allows us to…
We establish strong mixing for the $\mathbb Z^d$-periodic, infinite horizon, Lorentz gas flow for continuous observables with compact support. The essential feature of this natural class of observables is that their support may contain…
Consider d uniformly random permutation matrices on n labels. Consider the sum of these matrices along with their transposes. The total can be interpreted as the adjacency matrix of a random regular graph of degree 2d on n vertices. We…

Based on fluid-dynamic and many-particle (car-following) simulations of traffic flows in (urban) networks, we study the problem of coordinating incompatible traffic flows at intersections. Inspired by the observation of self-organized…
We prove functional limit theorems for dynamical systems in the presence of clusters of large values which, when summed and suitably normalised, get collapsed in a jump of the limiting process observed at the same time point. To keep track…
This paper extends previous work by the authors. We consider the local time process of a strong Markov process, add negative drift, and reflect it \`a la Skorokhod. The resulting process is used to model a fluid queue. We derive an…
The local (central) limit theorem precisely describes the behavior of iterated convolution powers of a probability distribution on the $d$-dimensional integer lattice, $\mathbb{Z}^d$. Under certain mild assumptions on the distribution, the…
Let $\xi_i$, $i\in \mathbb {N}$, be independent copies of a L\'{e}vy process $\{\xi(t),t\geq0\}$. Motivated by the results obtained previously in the context of the random energy model, we prove functional limit theorems for the process…
We consider a linear transport equation on the edges of a network with time-varying coefficients. Using methods for non-autonomous abstract Cauchy problems, we obtain well-posedness of the problem and describe the asymptotic profile of the…
In this article, we prove a new functional limit theorem for the partial sum sequence $S_{[nt]}=\sum_{i=1}^{[nt]}X_i$ corresponding to a linear sequence of the form $X_i=\sum_{j \in \bZ}c_j \xi_{i-j}$ with i.i.d. innovations $(\xi_i)_{i \in…
We study a lattice model describing the non-equilibrium dynamics emerging from the pulling of a tracer particle through a disordered medium occupied by randomly placed obstacles. The model is considered in a restricted geometry pertinent…
We investigate the random flight process that arises as the Boltzmann-Grad limit of a random scatterer Lorentz gas with variable scatterer density in a gravitational field. For power function densities we show how the parameters of the…
