This paper provides a general and abstract approach to approximate ergodic regimes of Markov and Feller processes. More precisely, we show that the recursive algorithm presented in Lamberton & Pages (2002) and based on simulation algorithms…
We apply general moment identities for Poisson stochastic integrals with random integrands to the computation of the moments of Markovian growth-collapse processes. This extends existing formulas for mean and variance available in the…
In this paper, we consider the density estimation problem associated with the stationary measure of ergodic It\^o diffusions from a discrete-time series that approximate the solutions of the stochastic differential equations. To take an…
We consider a stochastic functional delay differential equation, namely an equation whose evolution depends on its past history as well as on its present state, driven by a pure diffusive component plus a pure jump Poisson compensated…
By using the Skorohod equation we derive an iteration procedure which allows us to solve a class of reflected backward stochastic differential equations with non-linear resistance induced by the reflected local time. In particular, we…
Let $(X_n \colon n\in\Z)$ be a two-sided recurrent Markov chain with fixed initial state $X_0$ and let $\nu$ be a probability measure on its state space. We give a necessary and sufficient criterion for the existence of a non-randomized…
The stochastic properties of a Langevin-type Markov process can be extracted from a given time series by a Markov analysis. Also processes that obey a stochastically forced second order differential equation can be analyzed this way by…
We continue the investigation of the spectral theory and exponential asymptotics of Markov processes, following Kontoyiannis and Meyn (2003). We introduce a new family of nonlinear Lyapunov drift criteria, characterizing distinct subclasses…
Imprecise continuous-time Markov chains are a robust type of continuous-time Markov chains that allow for partially specified time-dependent parameters. Computing inferences for them requires the solution of a non-linear differential…
We present a new class of multifractal process on R, constructed using an embedded branching process. The construction makes use of known results on multitype branching random walks, and along the way constructs cascade measures on the…
We provide the explicit solutions of linear, left-invariant, (convection)-diffusion equations and the corresponding resolvent equations on the 2D-Euclidean motion group SE(2). These diffusion equations are forward Kolmogorov equations for…
In this article, we consider a generalisation of the Skorokhod embedding problem (SEP) with a delayed starting time. In the delayed SEP, we look for stopping times which embed a given measure in a stochastic process, which occur after a…
We study the existence, optimality, and construction of non-randomised stopping times that solve the Skorokhod embedding problem (SEP) for Markov processes which satisfy a duality assumption. These stopping times are hitting times of…
The embedding constants of the Sobolev spaces $\mathring{W}^n_2[0;1] \hookrightarrow \mathring{W}^k_\infty[0; 1]$ ($0\leqslant k \leqslant n-1$) are studied. A relation of the embedding constants with the norms of the functionals $f\mapsto…
Given a Brownian motion $B_t$ and a general target law $\mu$ (not necessarily centered or even integrable) we show how to construct an embedding of $\mu$ in $B$. This embedding is an extension of an embedding due to Perkins, and is optimal…
We develop the thermodynamics of non-Markovian generalized Langevin equations by embedding them in a high-dimensional Markovian representation involving auxiliary degrees of freedom. If the memory is linear and satisfies detailed balance…
Constrained Markov processes, such as reflecting diffusions, behave as an unconstrained process in the interior of a domain but upon reaching the boundary are controlled in some way so that they do not leave the closure of the domain. In…
Scale functions play a central role in the fluctuation theory of spectrally negative L\'evy processes and often appear in the context of martingale relations. These relations are often complicated to establish requiring excursion theory in…
