We consider a family of random trees satisfying a Markov branching property. Roughly, this property says that the subtrees above some given height are independent with a law that depends only on their total size, the latter being either the…
We introduce a prime end-type theory on complete Kobayashi hyperbolic manifolds using horosphere sequences. This allows to introduce a new notion of boundary-new even in the unit disc in the complex space-the horosphere boundary, and a…
We establish new instances of the cutoff phenomenon for geodesic paths and for the Brownian motion on compact hyperbolic manifolds. We prove that for any fixed compact hyperbolic manifold, the geodesic path started on a spatially localized…
Fractional Brownian motion is a Gaussian stochastic process with stationary, long-time correlated increments and is frequently used to model anomalous diffusion processes. We study numerically fractional Brownian motion confined to a finite…
Very recent experiments have discovered that localized light in strongly absorbing media displays intriguing diffusive phenomena. Here we develop a first-principles theory of light propagation in open media with arbitrary absorption…
We study the asymptotic behaviour of uniform random maps with a prescribed face-degree sequence, in the bipartite case, as the number of faces tends to infinity. Under mild assumptions, we show that, properly rescaled, such maps converge in…
Geodesic regression has been proposed for fitting the geodesic curve. However, it cannot automatically choose the dimensionality of data. In this paper, we develop a Bayesian geodesic regression model on Riemannian manifolds (BGRM) model.…
Utilizing the covariant formulation of Penrose's plane wave limit by Blau et~al., we construct for any semi-Riemannian metric $g$ a family of "plane wave limits." These limits are taken along any geodesic of $g$, yield simpler metrics of…
The search for a mathematical foundation for the path integral of Euclidean quantum gravity calls for the construction of random geometry on the spacetime manifold. Following developments in physics on the two-dimensional theory, random…
Consider a generic triangle in the upper half of the complex plane with one side on the real line. This paper presents a tailored construction of a discrete random walk whose continuum limit is a Brownian motion in the triangle, reflected…
For non-negative integers $(d_n(k))_{k \ge 1}$ such that $\sum_{k \ge 1} d_n(k) = n$, we sample a bipartite planar map with $n$ faces uniformly at random amongst those which have $d_n(k)$ faces of degree $2k$ for every $k \ge 1$ and we…
The (standard) Brownian web is a collection of coalescing one- dimensional Brownian motions, starting from each point in space and time. It arises as the diffusive scaling limit of a collection of coalescing random walks. We show that it is…
We study the energy landscape near the ground state of a model of a single particle in a random potential with trivial topology. More precisely, we find the large dimensional limit of the Hessian spectrum at the global minimum of the…
In this work, we study the geodesic structure for a geometry described by a spherically symmetric four-dimensional solution embedded in a five-dimensional space known as a brane-based spherically symmetric solution. Mainly, we have found…
We introduce a natural subset of the unit tangent bundle of a convex projective manifold, the biproximal unit tangent bundle; it is closed and invariant under the geodesic flow, and we prove that the geodesic flow is topologically mixing on…
The Brownian map is a random sphere-homeomorphic metric measure space obtained by "gluing together" the continuum trees described by the $x$ and $y$ coordinates of the Brownian snake. We present an alternative "breadth-first" construction…
We study transport properties of isotropic Brownian flows. Under a transience condition for the two-point motion, we show asymptotic normality of the image of a finite measure under the flow and -- under slightly stronger assumptions --…
This article tackles the problem of the classification of expansive homeomorphisms of the plane. Necessary and sufficient conditions for a homeomorphism to be conjugate to a linear hyperbolic automorphism will be presented. The techniques…
We construct the natural diffusion in the random geometry of planar Liouville quantum gravity. Formally, this is the Brownian motion in a domain $D$ of the complex plane for which the Riemannian metric tensor at a point $z \in D$ is given…
We study properties of the random metric space called the Brownian map. For every h>0, we consider the connected components of the complement of the open ball of radius h centered at the root, and we let N(h,r) be the number of those…
