This article provides tools for the study of the Dirichlet random walk in $\mathbb{R}^d$. By this we mean the random variable $W=X_1\Theta_1+\cdots+X_n\Theta_n$ where $X=(X_1,\ldots,X_n) \sim \mathcal{D}(q_1,\ldots,q_n)$ is Dirichlet…
We propose a test for model specification of a parametric diffusion process based on a kernel estimation of the transitional density of the process. The empirical likelihood is used to formulate a statistic, for each kernel smoothing…
In this paper, we describe a Bayesian nonparametric approach to make inference for a bivariate spherically symmetric distribution. We consider a Dirichlet invariant process prior on the set of all bivariate spherically symmetric…
We consider a quasi-regular Dirichlet form. We show that a bounded signed measure charges no set of zero capacity associated with the form if and only if the measure can be decomposed into the sum of an integrable function and a bounded…
The diffraction of a scalar plane wave from a doubly-periodic surface on which either the Dirichlet or Neumann boundary condition is imposed is studied by means of a rigorous numerical solution of the Rayleigh equation for the amplitudes of…
Reflected Brownian motion (RBM) in a wedge is a 2-dimensional stochastic process Z whose state space in R^2 is given in polar coordinates by S={(r,theta): r >= 0, 0 <= theta <= xi} for some 0 < xi < 2 pi. Let alpha= (theta_1+theta_2)/xi,…
The spectral gap is estimated for measure-valued diffusion processes induced by the intrinsic/extrinsic derivatives on the space of finite measures over a Riemannian manifold. This provides explicit exponential convergence rate for these…
A problem of diffraction by an elongated body of revolution is studied. The incident wave falls along the axis. The wavelength is small comparatively to the dimensions of the body. The parabolic equation of the diffraction theory is used to…
We consider the problem of learning two families of time-evolving random measures from indirect observations. In the first model, the signal is a Fleming--Viot diffusion, which is reversible with respect to the law of a Dirichlet process,…
The multiple-Dirichlet-to-Neumann (multiple-DtN) non-reflecting boundary condition is adapted to acoustic scattering from obstacles embedded in the half-plane. The multiple-DtN map is coupled with the method of images as an alternative…
We study the large deviations of current-type observables defined for Markov diffusion processes evolving in smooth bounded regions of $\mathbb{R}^d$ with reflections at the boundaries. We derive for these the correct boundary conditions…
Diffraction radiation (DR) is produced when a charged particle passes through an aperture or near a discontinuity in the media in which it is traveling. DR is closely related to transition radiation (TR), which is produced when a charged…
Various underground anomalies, both natural and artificial, cause diffraction of high-frequency seismic and electromagnetic pulses emitted from the earth's surface. Backscattered, they are registered by seismic sensors and…
We define radial exploration processes from $a$ to $b$ and from $b$ to $a$ in a domain $D$ of hexagons where $a$ is a boundary point and $b$ is an interior point. We prove the reversibility: the time-reversal of the process from $b$ to $a$…
This paper introduces Discrete Markov Probabilistic Models (DMPMs), a novel discrete diffusion algorithm for discrete data generation. The algorithm operates in discrete bit space, where the noising process is a continuous-time Markov chain…
Let $D$ be an unbounded domain in $\RR^d$ with $d\geq 3$. We show that if $D$ contains an unbounded uniform domain, then the symmetric reflecting Brownian motion (RBM) on $\overline D$ is transient. Next assume that RBM $X$ on $\overline D$…
Let $E$ be a locally compact separable metric space and $m$ be a positive Radon measure on it. Given a nonnegative function $k$ defined on $E\times E$ off the diagonal whose anti-symmetric part is assumed to be less singular than the…
We consider a diffusion process in $\mathbb{R}^d$ with a generator of the form $ L:=\frac 12 e^{V(x)}div(e^{-V(x)}\nabla ) $ where $V$ is measurable and periodic. We only assume that $e^V$ and $e^{-V}$ are locally integrable. We then show…
We present a numerical approximation method for linear diffusion-reaction problems with possibly discontinuous Dirichlet boundary conditions. The solution of such problems can be represented as a linear combination of explicitly known…
A version of fractional diffusion on bounded domains, subject to 'homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions' is derived from a kinetic transport model with homogeneous inflow boundary conditions. For nonconvex domains, the result differs…
