We give two results for deducing dynamical properties of piecewise M\"obius interval maps from their related planar extensions. First, eventual expansivity and the existence of an ergodic invariant probability measure equivalent to Lebesgue…
We consider time-inhomogeneous ODEs whose parameters are governed by an underlying ergodic Markov process. When this underlying process is accelerated by a factor $\varepsilon^{-1}$, an averaging phenomenon occurs and the solution of the…
We consider Glauber-type stochastic dynamics of continuous systems \cite{BCC02}, \cite{KL03}, a particular case of spatial birth-and-death processes. The dynamics is defined by a Markov generator in such a way that Gibbs measures of Ruelle…
We consider piecewise deterministic Markov processes with degenerate transition kernels of the "house-of-cards"-type. We use a splitting scheme based on jump times to prove the absolute continuity, as well as some regularity, of the…
In this paper we address the exponential stability of a system of transport equations with intermittent damping on a network of $N \geq 2$ circles intersecting at a single point $O$. The $N$ equations are coupled through a linear mixing of…
The spatial logistic model is a system of point entities (particles) in $\mathbb{R}^d$ which reproduce themselves at distant points (dispersal) and die, also due to competition. The states of such systems are probability measures on the…
We investigate the possible existence of nonradiating motions of systems of point charges, according to classical electrodynamics with retarded potentials. We prove that two point particles of arbitrary electric charges cannot move for an…
We show existence of an infinitesimally invariant measure $m$ for a large class of divergence and non-divergence form elliptic second order partial differential operators with locally Sobolev regular diffusion coefficient and drift of some…
We investigate the persistence probability $p(t)$ of the position of a Brownian particle with shape asymmetry in two dimensions. The persistence probability is defined as the probability that a stochastic variable has not changed it's sign…
Suppose $(f,\mathcal{X},\mu)$ is a measure preserving dynamical system and $\phi \colon \mathcal{X} \to \mathbb{R}$ a measurable function. Consider the maximum process $M_n:=\max\{X_1 \ldots,X_n\}$, where $X_i=\phi\circ f^{i-1}$ is a time…
We consider the piecewise-deterministic Markov process obtained by randomly switching between the flows generated by a finite set of smooth vector fields on a compact set. We obtain H\"ormander-type conditions on the vector fields…
We consider consistent particle systems, which include independent random walkers, the symmetric exclusion and inclusion processes, as well as the dual of the KMP model. Consistent systems are such that the distribution obtained by first…
In this article we show that a large class of infinite measure preserving dynamical systems that do not admit physical measures nevertheless exhibit strong statistical properties. In particular, we give sufficient conditions for existence…
In this work, we develop and rigorously analyze a new class of particle methods for the magnetized Vlasov--Poisson--Fokker--Planck system. The proposed approach addresses two fundamental challenges: (1) the curse of dimensionality, which we…
We consider Gibbs distributions on the set of permutations of $\mathbb Z^d$ associated to the Hamiltonian $H(\sigma):=\sum_{x} V(\sigma(x)-x)$, where $\sigma$ is a permutation and $V:\mathbb Z^d\to\mathbb R$ is a strictly convex potential.…
We consider the dynamics of finite systems of point masses which move along the real line. We suppose the particles interact pairwise and undergo perfectly inelastic collisions when they collide. In particular, once particles collide, they…
A time-dependent finite-state Markov chain that uses doubly stochastic transition matrices, is considered. Entropic quantities that describe the randomness of the probability vectors, and also the randomness of the discrete paths, are…
Systems of classical continuous particles in the grand canonical ensemble interacting through purely attractive, yet stable, interactions are defined. By a lattice approximation, FKG ferromagnetic inequalities are shown to hold for such…
In this paper we obtain an almost sure invariance principle for convergent sequences of either Anosov diffeomorphisms or expanding maps on compact Riemannian manifolds and prove an ergodic stability result for such sequences. The sequences…
We consider a class of stochastic dynamical systems, called piecewise deterministic Markov processes, with states $(x, \s)\in \O\times \G$, $\O$ being a region in $\bbR^d$ or the $d$--dimensional torus, $\G$ being a finite set. The…
