Recent attention in quickest change detection in the multi-sensor setting has been on the case where the densities of the observations change at the same instant at all the sensors due to the disruption. In this work, a more general…

In this paper we revisit a fundamental technical issue within the theory of stochastic approximation (SA) in a Markovian framework, first proposed in the book by Djereveckii and Fradkov (1981), and further developed in much detail in the…

This paper is concerned with the study of synchronization and consensus phenomena in complex networks of diffusively-coupled nodes subject to external disturbances. Specifically, we make use of stochastic Lyapunov functions to provide…

The empirical measure of an interacting particle system is a purely atomic random probability measure. In the limit as the number of particles grows to infinity, we show for McKean-Vlasov systems with common noise that this measure becomes…

We propose a new approach to sequential testing which is an adaptive (on-line) extension of the (off-line) framework developed in [10]. It relies upon testing of pairs of hypotheses in the case where each hypothesis states that the vector…

We present a new form of intermittency, L\'evy on-off intermittency, which arises from multiplicative $\alpha$-stable white noise close to an instability threshold. We study this problem in the linear and nonlinear regimes, both…

We study the Bayesian problems of detecting a change in the drift rate of an observable diffusion process with linear and exponential penalty costs for a detection delay. The optimal times of alarms are found as the first times at which the…

A stochastic linear transport equation with multiplicative noise is considered and the question of no-blow-up is investigated. The drift is assumed only integrable to a certain power. Opposite to the deterministic case where smooth initial…
