Consider a sequence of i.i.d. random Lipschitz functions $\{\Psi_n\}_{n \geq 0}$. Using this sequence we can define a Markov chain via the recursive formula $R_{n+1} = \Psi_{n+1}(R_n)$. It is a well known fact that under some mild moment…

We consider a scalar diffusion equation with a sign-changing coefficient in its principle part. The well-posedness of such problems has already been studied extensively provided that the contrast of the coefficient is non-critical.…

In this work we consider time series with a finite number of discrete point changes. We assume that the data in each segment follows a different probability density functions (pdf). We focus on the case where the data in all segments are…

Random discrete distributions, say $F,$ known as species sampling models, represent a rich class of models for classification and clustering, in Bayesian statistics and machine learning. They also arise in various areas of probability and…

A compatible point-shift $F$ maps, in a translation invariant way, each point of a stationary point process $\Phi$ to some point of $\Phi$. It is fully determined by its associated point-map, $f$, which gives the image of the origin by $F$.…

We provide Monte Carlo estimates of the scaling of the length $L_{n}$ of the longest increasing subsequences of $n$-steps random walks for several different distributions of step lengths, short and heavy-tailed. Our simulations indicate…

We study how the inversion statistic is influenced by fixed points in a permutation. %The expected number of inversions in a uniformly random permutation in $S_n$ is $\frac{n(n-1)}4$. For each $n\in\mathbb{N}$, and each $k\in\{0,1,\cdots,…

Let $P_s\phi(x)=\mathbb{E}\, \phi(X^x(s))$, be the transition semigroup on the space $B_b(E)$ of bounded measurable functions on a Banach space $E$, of the Markov family defined by the linear equation with additive noise $$ d X(s)=…

\noindent In our contribution to this volume we deal with \emph{discrete} symmetries: these are symmetries based upon groups with a discrete set of elements (generally a set of elements that can be enumerated by the positive integers). In…

We consider the probability distribution of large deviations in the spin-glass free energy for the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick mean field model, i.e. the exponentially small probability of finding a system with intensive free energy smaller…

This paper studies the properties of the probability density function $p_{\alpha,\nu, n}(\mathbf{x})$ of the $n$-variate generalized Linnik distribution whose characteristic function $\varphi_{\alpha,\nu,n}(\boldsymbol{t})$ is given by…

Approximations to the modified signed likelihood ratio statistic are asymptotically standard normal with error of order $n^{-1}$, where $n$ is the sample size. Proofs of this fact generally require that the sufficient statistic of the model…

The analysis of local minima in time series data and random landscapes is essential across numerous scientific disciplines, offering critical insights into system dynamics. Recently, Kundu, Majumdar, and Schehr derived the exact…

Traditional methods for inference in change point detection often rely on a large number of observed data points and can be inaccurate in non-asymptotic settings. With the rise of mobile health and digital phenotyping studies, where…

In this paper we consider the persistence properties of random processes in Brownian scenery, which are examples of non-Markovian and non-Gaussian processes. More precisely we study the asymptotic behaviour for large $T$, of the probability…

We study two models of random multiplicative functions: Rademacher random multiplicative functions supported on the squarefree integers $f$, and Rademacher random completely multiplicative functions $f^*$. We prove that the partial sums…

We compute exactly the distribution of the occupation time in a discrete {\em non-Markovian} toy sequence which appears in various physical contexts such as the diffusion processes and Ising spin glass chains. The non-Markovian property…

To establish a unified framework for studying both discrete and continuous coupling distributions, we introduce the {\it binomial} spin glass, a class of models where the couplings are sums of $m$ identically distributed Bernoulli random…
