We consider particles emanating from a source point inside an interval in one-dimensional space and passing through detectors situated at the endpoints of the interval that register their arrival time. Unambiguous measurements of arrival or…

Let $T$ be a piecewise expanding interval map and $T_H$ be an abstract perturbation of $T$ into an interval map with a hole. Given a number $\ell$, $0<\ell<1$, we compute an upper-bound on the size of a hole needed for the existence of an…

This paper is concerned with the study of the stability of dynamical systems evolving on time scales. We first {formalize the notion of matrix measures on time scales, prove some of their key properties and make use of this notion to study…

We put forward a novel approach to study the evolution of an arbitrary open quantum system under a resetting process. Using the framework of renewal equations, we find a universal behavior for the mean first return time that goes beyond…

The principle of detailed balance (DB) states that every kinetic transition in a system with many micro-states, $\mu$, is balanced, on average, with the opposite transition, $\mu_i\leftrightharpoons\mu_j$. Since its introduction by…

A theorem of Bourgain states that the harmonic measure for a domain in $\R^d$ is supported on a set of Hausdorff dimension strictly less than $d$ \cite{Bourgain}. We apply Bourgain's method to the discrete case, i.e., to the distribution of…

Let $T_1^{(\mu)}$ be the first hitting time of the point 1 by the Bessel process with index $\mu\in \R$ starting from $x>1$. Using an integral formula for the density $q_x^{(\mu)}(t)$ of $T_1^{(\mu)}$, obtained in Byczkowski, Ryznar (Studia…

Very recently, a fundamental observable has been introduced and analyzed to quantify the exploration of random walks: the time $\tau_k$ required for a random walk to find a site that it never visited previously, when the walk has already…

Control problems not admitting the dynamic programming principle are known as time-inconsistent. The game-theoretic approach is to interpret such problems as intrapersonal dynamic games and look for subgame perfect Nash equilibria. A…

We discuss the existence in an arbitrary frame of a finite time for the transformation of an initial quantum state into another e.g. in a decay. This leads to the introduction of a timelapse $\tilde{\tau}$ in analogy with the lifetime of a…

The primary objective of this paper is to understand first-order, time-dependent mean-field games with Neumann boundary conditions, a question that remains under-explored in the literature. This matter is particularly relevant given the…

We consider the problem of estimating the common time of a change in the mean parameters of panel data when dependence is allowed between the panels in the form of a common factor. A CUSUM type estimator is proposed, and we establish first…

Let $A$ and $B$ be sets in a finite vector space. In this paper, we study the magnitude of the set $A\cap f(B)$, where $f$ runs through a set of transformations. More precisely, we will focus on the cases that the set of transformations is…

We consider a random walk $S_{\tau}$ which is obtained from the simple random walk $S$ by a discrete time version of Bochner's subordination. We prove that under certain conditions on the subordinator $\tau$ appropriately scaled random walk…

Let $A_t$ be an $\alpha$-stable symmetric process, $0<\alpha\leq 2$, on $\mathbb{R}^d$ and $D\subset \mathbb{R}^d$ be a bounded domain. This paper presents a proof, based on the classical Brascamp-Lieb-Luttinger inequalities for multiple…

The long-time average behavior of the value function in the calculus of variations is known to be connected to the existence of the limit of the corresponding Abel means. Still in the Tonelli case, such a limit is in turn related to the…

We revisit the range $\tau$-majority problem, which asks us to preprocess an array $A[1..n]$ for a fixed value of $\tau \in (0,1/2]$, such that for any query range $[i,j]$ we can return a position in $A$ of each distinct $\tau$-majority…

Recent high precision experimental results on spin-glass films ask for a detailed understanding of the domain-growth dynamics of two-dimensional spin glasses. To achieve this goal, we numerically simulate the out-equilibrium dynamics of the…

We consider the standard first passage percolation model on $\mathbb Z^d$ with bounded and bounded away from zero weights. We show that the rescaled passage time $\widetilde{\mathbf T}_{n,X}$ restricted to a compact set $X$ satisfies a…

This paper re-examines the first normalized incomplete moment, a well-established measure of inequality with wide applications in economic and social sciences. Despite the popularity of the measure itself, existing statistical inference…
