Let $S_n$ be a lattice random walk with mean zero and finite variance, and let $\Lambda^a_n$ be its occupation measure at level $a$. In this note, we prove local limit theorems for $\Pr[S_n=x,\Lambda^a_n=\ell]$ and…
A continuous Markovian model for truncated Levy random walks is proposed. It generalizes the approach developed previously by Lubashevsky et al. Phys. Rev. E 79, 011110 (2009); 80, 031148 (2009), Eur. Phys. J. B 78, 207 (2010) allowing for…
In this paper excursions of a stationary diffusion in stationary state are studied. In particular, we compute the joint distribution of the occupation times $I^{(+)}_t$ and $I^{(-)}_t$ above and below, respectively, the observed level at…
By proving a local limit theorem for higher-order transitions, we determine the time required for necklace chains to be close to stationarity. Because necklace chains, built by arranging identical smaller chains around a directed cycle, are…
For $x\in R^d- \{0\}$, in dimension $d=3$, we study the asymptotic behavior of the local time $L_t^x$ of super-Brownian motion $X$ starting from $\delta_0$ as $x \to 0$. Let $\psi(x)=((1/2\pi^2) \log (1/|x|))^{1/2}$ be a normalization,…
We start by providing an explicit characterization and analytical properties, including the persistence phenomena, of the distribution of the extinction time $\mathbb{T}$ of a class of non-Markovian self-similar stochastic processes with…
A stochastic flow of homeomorphisms of the real line previously studied by Bass and Burdzy is shown to arise in describing a Brownian motion conditional on knowing its local times on hitting a fixed level. This makes it possible to connect…
We obtain a representation of Feller's branching diffusion with logistic growth in terms of the local times of a reflected Brownian motion $H$ with a drift that is affine linear in the local time accumulated by $H$ at its current level. As…
This article provides an overview of recent work on descriptions and properties of the convex minorant of random walks and L\'evy processes which summarize and extend the literature on these subjects. The results surveyed include point…
For given two standard processes with no positive jumps, we construct, using the excursion theory, a Markov process whose positive and negative motions have the same law as the two processes. The resulting process is a generalization of…
We show that local times of super-Brownian motion, or of Brownian motion indexed by the Brownian tree, satisfy an explicit stochastic differential equation. Our proofs rely on both excursion theory for the Brownian snake and tools from the…
We consider a L\'evy process reflected at the origin with additional i.i.d. collapses that occur at Poisson epochs, where a collapse is a jump downward to a state which is a random fraction of the state just before the jump. We first study…
We present a novel theoretical result on estimation of local time and occupation time measure of an {\alpha}-stable L\'evy process with {\alpha} in (1, 2). Our approach is based upon computing the conditional expectation of the desired…
The spectral theory of random walks on networks of arbitrary topology can be readily extended to study random walks and L\'evy flights subject to resetting on these structures. When a discrete-time process is stochastically brought back…
We introduce a general theory on stationary approximations for locally stationary continuous-time processes. Based on the stationary approximation, we use $\theta$-weak dependence to establish laws of large numbers and central limit type…
Let be $X(t)= x - \mu t + \sigma B_t - N_t$ a L$\acute{\text{e}}$vy process starting from $x >0,$ where $ \mu \ge 0, \ \sigma \ge 0, \ B_t$ is a standard BM, and $N_t$ is a homogeneous Poisson process with intensity $ \theta >0,$ starting…
In this note we investigate the behaviour of Brownian motion conditioned on a growth constraint of its local time which has been previously investigated by Berestycki and Benjamini. For a class of non-decreasing positive functions $f(t);…
We consider a wide class of increasing L\'evy processes perturbed by an independent Brownian motion as a degradation model. Such family contains almost all classical degradation models considered in the literature. Classically failure time…
We consider the model of Brownian motion indexed by the Brownian tree, which has appeared in a variety of different contexts in probability, statistical physics and combinatorics. For this model, the total occupation measure is known to…
We study a one-dimensional diffusion $X$ in a drifted Brownian potential $W\_\kappa$, with $ 0\textless{}\kappa\textless{}1$, and focus on the behavior of the local times $(\mathcal{L}(t,x),x)$ of $X$ before time $t\textgreater{}0$.In…
