Basic derivative formulas are presented for hypoelliptic heat semigroups and harmonic functions extending earlier work in the elliptic case. Emphasis is placed on developing integration by parts formulas at the level of local martingales.…

In previous works, we have developed a new Malliavin calculus on the Poisson space based on the lent particle formula. The aim of this work is to prove that, on the Wiener space for the standard Ornstein-Uhlenbeck structure, we also have…
We consider additive functionals of systems of random measures whose initial configuration is given by a Poisson point process, and whose individual components evolve according to arbitrary Markovian or non-Markovian measure valued…

We provide a general result for bounding the difference between point probabilities of integer supported distributions and the translated Poisson distribution, a convenient alternative to the discretized normal. We illustrate our theorem in…
We study normal approximation of subgraph counts in a model of spatial scale-free random networks known as the age-dependent random connection model. In the light-tailed regime where only moments of order $(2 + \varepsilon)$ are finite, we…
We adapt Stein's method of diffusion approximations, developed by Barbour, to the study of chaotic dynamical systems. We establish an error bound in the functional central limit theorem with respect to an integral probability metric of…
This note describes non-asymptotic variance and tail bounds for order statistics of samples of independent identically distributed random variables. Those bounds are checked to be asymptotically tight when the sampling distribution belongs…
We study higher order expansions both in the Berry-Ess\'een estimate (Edgeworth expansions) and in the local limit theorems for Birkhoff sums of chaotic probability preserving dynamical systems. We establish general results under technical…
An extension of non-deterministic processes driven by the random telegraph signal is introduced in the framework of "piecewise deterministic Markov processes" [Davis], including a broader category of random systems. The corresponding…
Starting from the probability distribution of finite N-body systems, which maximises the Havrda--Charv\'at entropy, we build a Stein-type goodness-of-fit test. The Maxwell--Boltzmann distribution is exact only in the thermodynamic limit,…
In this PhD thesis, we apply a combination of Malliavin calculus and Stein's method in the framework of probability approximations. The specific problems we tackle with these methods are motivated by probabilistic models in cosmology (Part…
