Small-space and large-time estimates and asymptotic expansion of the distribution function and (the derivatives of) the density function of hitting times of points for symmetric L\'evy processes are studied. The L\'evy measure is assumed to…

It is known that in a stationary Brownian queue with both arrival and service processes equal in law to Brownian motion, the departure process is a Brownian motion, that is, Burke's theorem in this context. In this short note we prove…

Let $\{D(s), s \geq 0 \}$ be a L\'evy subordinator, that is, a non-decreasing process with stationary and independent increments and suppose that $D(0) = 0$. We study the first-hitting time of the process $D$, namely, the process $E(t) =…

In this paper we study a subordinate Brownian motion with a Gaussian component and a rather general discontinuous part. The assumption on the subordinator is that its Laplace exponent is a complete Bernstein function with a L\'evy density…

In this paper, long time and high order moment asymptotics for super-Brownian motions (sBm's) are studied. By using a moment formula for sBm's (e.g. Theorem 3.1, Hu et al. Ann. Appl. Probab. 2023+), precise upper and lower bounds for all…

Getoor's conjecture that essentially all Levy processes satisfy (H) is a long-standing open problem in potential theory. In the beginning of the paper, we summarize the main results obtained so far for the problem. Then, we present two new…

We extend generalized isoperimetric-type inequalities to iterated Brownian motion over several domains in $\RR{R}^{n}$. These kinds of inequalities imply in particular that for domains of finite volume, the exit distribution and moments of…

Let $X$ be a symmetric jump process on $\R^d$ such that the corresponding jumping kernel $J(x,y)$ satisfies $$J(x,y)\le \frac{c}{|x-y|^{d+2}\log^{1+\varepsilon}(e+|x-y|)}$$ for all $x,y\in\R^d$ with $|x-y|\ge1$ and some constants…

In this thesis, we extend the recently introduced theory of stochastic modified equations (SMEs) for stochastic gradient optimization algorithms. In Ch. 3 we study time-inhomogeneous SDEs driven by Brownian motion. For certain SDEs we prove…

A symmetric random walk $X$ whose jumps have diffuse law, looked at up to an independent geometric random time, splits at the minimum into two independent and identically distributed pieces. The same for the maximum. It is natural to ask,…

In order to formally verify robotic controllers, we must tackle the inherent uncertainty of sensing and actuation in a physical environment. We can model uncertainty using stochastic hybrid systems, which combine discrete jumps with…

Adapting the method of Andrews-Clutterbuck we prove an eigenvalue gap theorem for a class of non symmetric second order linear elliptic operators on a convex domain in euclidean space. The class of operators includes the Bakry-Emery…

By further developing the generalized $\Gamma$-calculus for hypoelliptic operators, we prove hypocoercive estimates for a large class of Kolmogorov type operators which are defined on non necessarily totally geodesic Riemannian foliations.…

The Harnack and log Harnack inequalities for stochastic differential equation driven by $G$-Brownian motion with multiplicative noise are derived by means of coupling by change of mesure. All of the above results extend the existing ones in…

The present paper is devoted to study the asymptotic behavior of a sequence of linear elliptic equations with a varying drift term, whose coefficients are just bounded in $L^N(\Omega)$, with $N$ the dimension of the space. It is known that…

Flip-flop processes refer to a family of stochastic fluid processes which converge to either a standard Brownian motion (SBM) or to a Markov modulated Brownian motion (MMBM). In recent years, it has been shown that complex distributional…

The kinetic Brownian motion on the sphere bundle of a Riemannian manifold $M$ is a stochastic process that models a random perturbation of the geodesic flow. If $M$ is a orientable compact constant negatively curved surface, we show that in…
