As a generalization of deterministic, nonlinear conservative dynamical systems, a notion of {\em canonical conservative dynamics} with respect to a positive, differentiable stationary density $\rho(x)$ is introduced: $\dot{x}=j(x)$ in which…
It is shown that for a non-decreasing self-similar stochastic process $T$ with independent increments, the range of $T$ forms a Poisson point process with $\sigma$-finite intensity if and only if the one-dimensional distribution of $T(1)$…
Let $X=(X_t)_{t\ge0}$ be a stable L\'{e}vy process of index $\alpha \in(1,2)$ with no negative jumps and let $S_t=\sup_{0\le s\le t}X_s$ denote its running supremum for $t>0$. We show that the density function $f_t$ of $S_t$ can be…
Let $U:[0,\infty)^2 \to [0,\infty)$ be a~measurable kernel satisfying: (i) $U(x,y)$ is nonincreasing in $x$ and nondecreasing in $y$; (ii) there exists a~constant $\theta>0$ such that $U(x,z) \le \theta\left( U(x,y)+U(y,z) \right)$ for all…
Identifying and quantifying memory are often critical steps in developing a mechanistic understanding of stochastic processes. These are particularly challenging and necessary when exploring processes that exhibit long-range correlations.…

Let $X_t^\sharp$ be a multivariate process of the form $X_t =Y_t - Z_t$, $X_0=x$, killed at some terminal time $T$, where $Y_t$ is a Markov process having only jumps of the length smaller than $\delta$, and $Z_t$ is a compound Poisson…
We show that t^{3/4}|| u(.,t) ||_{sup} --> 0 as t --> infty for all (global) Leray solutions of the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations in R3. It is also shown that t || u(.,t) - v(.,t) ||_{sup} --> 0 as t --> infty, where v(.,t) is the…
We prove the existence of self-similar solutions to the Fradkov model for two-dimensional grain growth, which consists of an infinite number of nonlocally coupled transport equations for the number densities of grains with given area and…
In this paper, a simple transient Markov process with an absorbing point is used to investigate the qualitative behavior of a large scale storage network of non reliable file servers where files can be duplicated. When the size of the…
In this work, we are interested in characterizing typical (generic) dimensional properties of invariant measures associated with the full-shift system, $T$, in a product space whose alphabet is a perfect and separable metric space (thus,…
We investigate the asymptotic behavior as $t\to+\infty$ of solutions to a weighted porous medium equation in $ \mathbb{R}^N $, whose weight $\rho(x)$ behaves at spatial infinity like $ |x|^{-\gamma} $ with subcritical power, namely $ \gamma…
Let $(\mathfrak{M},\rho,\mu)$ be a metric measure space satisfying a doubling condition, $p_0\in (1,\infty)$, and $T(t):L^{p_0}(\mathfrak{M},\mu)\rightarrow L^{p_0}(\mathfrak{M},\mu)$, $t\geq 0$, a strongly continuous semi-group. We provide…

Let $(X_i)_{i\geq 1}$ be a stationary mean-zero Gaussian process with covariances $\rho(k)=\PE(X_{1}X_{k+1})$ satisfying: $\rho(0)=1$ and $\rho(k)=k^{-D} L(k)$ where $D$ is in $(0,1)$ and $L$ is slowly varying at infinity. Consider the…
We classify all subsets $S$ of the projective Hilbert space with the following property: for every point $\pm s_0\in S$, the spherical projection of $S\backslash\{\pm s_0\}$ to the hyperplane orthogonal to $\pm s_0$ is isometric to…
For a given topological dynamical system $(X,T)$ over a compact set $X$ with a metric $d$, the "variational principle" states that \begin{equation*} \sup_{\mu}h_\mu(T) = h(T) = h_d(T), \end{equation*} where $h_\mu(T)$ is the…
