These are lecture notes for a mini-course on stochastic sewing, taught at the University of Edinburgh and Beijing Institute of Technology in Spring/Summer 2025. The aim is to introduce the reader to stochastic sewing techniques and to show…
We examine characteristic properties of deterministic and stochastic diffusion in low-dimensional chaotic dynamical systems. As an example, we consider a periodic array of scatterers defined by a simple chaotic map on the line. Adding…
Reaction diffusion systems describe the behaviour of dynamic, interacting, particulate systems. Quantum stochastic processes generalise Brownian motion and Poisson processes, having operator valued It\^{o} calculus machinery. Here it is…
This book contains a large number of exercises related to different stochastic disciplines. Difficulty of the problems varies from the basic level in the first chapter up to the analysis of articles in Probability, Statistics and Computer…
A general approach to consider spatially extended stochastic systems with correlations between additive and multiplicative noises subject to nonlinear damping is developed. Within modified cumulant expansion method, we derive an effective…
A new type of noised-induced phase transitions that should occur in systems of elements with motivated behavior is considered. By way of an example, a simple oscillatory system {x,v} with additive white noise is analyzed numerically. A…
Many cellular behaviors are regulated by gene regulation networks, kinetics of which is one of the main subjects in the study of systems biology. Because of the low number molecules in these reacting systems, stochastic effects are…
The developing field of stochastic thermodynamics extends concepts of macroscopic thermodynamics such as entropy production and work to the microscopic level of individual trajectories taken by a system through phase space. The scheme…
The most frequently used in physical application diffusive (based on the Fokker-Planck equation) model leans upon the assumption of small jumps of a macroscopic variable for each given realization of the stochastic process. This imposes…
These lectures introduce the basic ideas and practices of statistical analysis for particle physicists, using a real-world example to illustrate how the abstractions on which statistics is based are translated into practical application.
In this paper we consider a diffusion process obtained as a small random perturbation of a dynamical system attracted to a stable equilibrium point. The drift and the diffusive perturbation are assumed to evolve slowly in time. We describe…
We extend the phase field crystal method for nonequilibrium patterning to stochastic systems with external source where transient dynamics is essential. It was shown that at short time scales the system manifests pattern selection…
In this talk I will introduce the principle of stochastic stability and discussing its consequences both at equilibrium and off-equilibrium.
This brief article gives an overview of quantum mechanics as a {\em quantum probability theory}. It begins with a review of the basic operator-algebraic elements that connect probability theory with quantum probability theory. Then quantum…
We introduce a framework to identify Fluctuation Relations for vector-valued observables in physical systems evolving through a stochastic dynamics. These relations arise from the particular structure of a suitable entropic functional and…
Based on the physics of stochastic processes we present a new approach for structural health monitoring. We show that the new method allows for an in-situ analysis of the elastic features of a mechanical structure even for realistic…
We give an introduction to phase transitions in the steady states of systems that evolve stochastically with equilibrium and nonequilibrium dynamics, the latter defined as those that do not possess a time-reversal symmetry. We try as much…
Numerical algorithms for the integration of stochastic differential equations in the presence of white noise are introduced and compared. Algorithms for the integration of stochastic correlated forces are also briefly reviewed. Finally, a…
From the climate system to the effect of the internet on society, chaotic systems appear to have a significant role in our future. Here a method of statistical learning for a class of chaotic systems is described along with underlying…
Stochastic processes offer a fundamentally different paradigm of dynamics than deterministic processes, the most prominent example of the latter being Newton's laws of motion. Here, we discuss in a pedagogical manner a simple and…
