Random variables $X^i$, $i=1,2$ are 'probabilistically equivalent' if they have the same law. Moreover, in any class of equivalent random variables it is easy to select canonical representatives. The corresponding questions are more…
Filtered probability spaces (called "filtrations" for short) are shown to satisfy such a topological zero-one law: for every property of filtrations, either the property holds for almost all filtrations, or its negation does. In particular,…
We establish sample-path large deviation principles for the centered cumulative functional of marked Poisson cluster processes in the Skorokhod space equipped with the M1 topology, under joint regular variation assumptions on the marks and…
This paper generalizes the notion of stochastic order to a relation between probability measures over arbitrary measurable spaces. This generalization is motivated by the observation that for the stochastic ordering of two stationary Markov…
We consider stochastic partial differential equations on $\mathbb{R}^{d}, d\geq 1$, driven by a Gaussian noise white in time and colored in space, for which the pathwise uniqueness holds. By using the Skorokhod representation theorem we…
Various functional limit theorems for partial sum processes of strictly stationary sequences of regularly varying random variables in the space of cadlag functions $D[0,1]$ with one of the Skorohod topologies have already been obtained. The…
We present in this paper a new sufficient condition for the so-called Prokhorov-Skorokhod continuity of random processes. Our conditions will be formulated in the terms of metric entropy generated by three-dimensional distribution of the…
In this paper, a study of random times on filtered probability spaces is undertaken. The main message is that, as long as distributional properties of optional processes up to the random time are involved, there is no loss of generality in…
We derive functional convergence of the partial maxima stochastic processes of multivariate linear processes with weakly dependent heavy-tailed innovations and random coefficients. The convergence takes place in the space of…
Let $X$ be a Banach space with a basis $(e_k)_k$ and biorthogonals $(e^\ast_k)_k$. An operator on $X$ is said to have a $\textit {large diagonal}$ if $\inf\limits_{k} |e_k^\ast(T(e_k))| > 0$. The basis $(e_k)_k$ is said to have the $\textit…
Consider an It\^{o} process $X$ satisfying the stochastic differential equation $dX=a(X)\,dt+b(X)\,dW$ where $a,b$ are smooth and $W$ is a multidimensional Brownian motion. Suppose that $W_n$ has smooth sample paths and that $W_n$ converges…
This paper considers a restriction to non-negative matrix factorization in which at least one matrix factor is stochastic. That is, the elements of the matrix factors are non-negative and the columns of one matrix factor sum to 1. This…
We establish necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of factorizable steady states of the Generalized Zero Range Process. This process allows transitions from a site $i$ to a site $i+q$ involving multiple particles with rates…
Stochastic processes described by evolution equations in the universality class of the FKPP equation may be approximately factorized into a linear stochastic part and a nonlinear deterministic part. We prove this factorization on a model…
The paper addresses the question whether a random functional, a map from a set $E$ into the space of real-valued measurable functions on a probability space, has a measurable version with values in ${\mathbb R}^E$. Similarly, one may ask…
We explore the limit of stochastic differential equations driven by some random processes satisfying singularly perturbed second order stochastic differential equations. The main tool we employ is the universal limit theorem in rough path…
We prove a superposition principle for nonlinear Fokker-Planck-Kolmogorov equations on Euclidean spaces and their corresponding linearized first-order continuity equation over the space of Borel (sub-)probability measures. As a consequence,…
Given a probability-measure-valued process $(\mu_t)$, we aim to find, among all path-continuous stochastic processes whose one-dimensional time marginals coincide almost surely with $(\mu_t)$ (if there is any), a process that minimizes a…
We develop a general method for extending Markov processes to a larger state space such that the added points form a polar set. The so obtained extension is an improvement on the standard trivial extension in which case the process is made…
In this paper, we consider a general discrete-time spectral factorization problem for rational matrix-valued functions. We build on a recent result establishing existence of a spectral factor whose zeroes and poles lie in any pair of…
