We introduce a new way to study molecular evolution within well-established Hamilton-Jacobi formalism, showing that for a broad class of fitness landscapes it is possible to derive dynamics analytically within the $1/N$-accuracy, where $N$…

We investigate the asymptotic behavior of solutions of Hamilton-Jacobi equations with large drift term in an open subset of two-dimensional Euclidean space. When the drift is given by $\varepsilon^{-1} (H_{x_2}, -H_{x_1})$ of a Hamiltonian…

We study the loss, recovery, and preservation of differentiability of time-dependent large deviation rate functions. This study is motivated by mean-field Gibbs-non-Gibbs transitions. The gradient of the rate-function evolves according to a…

We study a class of parabolic equations having first order terms with superlinear (and subquadratic) growth. The model problem is the so-called viscous Hamilton-Jacobi equation with superlinear Hamiltonian. We address the problem of having…

Subdiffusive motion takes place at a much slower timescale than diffusive motion. As a preliminary step to studying reaction-subdiffusion pulled fronts, we consider here the hyperbolic limit $(t,x) \to (t/\varepsilon, x/\varepsilon)$ of an…

We provide a large deviations analysis of deadlock phenomena occurring in distributed systems sharing common resources. In our model transition probabilities of resource allocation and deallocation are time and space dependent. The process…

In this paper, we investigate the exponential ergodicity in a Wasserstein-type distance for a damping Hamiltonian dynamics with state-dependent and non-local collisions, which indeed is a special case of piecewise deterministic Markov…

The well known phenomenon of exponential contraction for solutions to the viscous Hamilton-Jacobi equation in the space-periodic setting is based on the Markov mechanism. However, the corresponding Lyapunov exponent $\lambda(\nu)$…
