We consider the parabolic Anderson model, the Cauchy problem for the heat equation with random potential in $Z^d$. We use i.i.d. potentials $\xi: Z^d \to \R$ in the third universality class, namely the class of almost bounded potentials, in…

Strong anomalous diffusion is {often} characterized by a piecewise-linear spectrum of the moments of displacement. The spectrum is characterized by slopes $\xi$ and $\zeta$ for small and large moments, respectively, and by the critical…

Let $\{u(t\,,x): (t,x)\in (0, \infty)\times \mathbb{R}\}$ be the solution to parabolic Anderson model with narrow wedge initial condition. Using the association property of parabolic Anderson model, we establish a lower bound on spatial…

Consider the stochastic PDE, $\partial_tu = \partial^2_x u + \sigma(u) \dot{W}$ on $\mathbb{R}_+\times\mathbb{R}$, subject to $u(0)\equiv1$, where $\dot{W}$ denotes space-time white noise on $\mathbb{R}_+\times\mathbb{R}$ and…

We reconsider a classical, well-studied problem from applied probability. This is the max-sum equivalence of randomly weighted sums, and the originality is because we manage to include interdependence among the primary random variables, as…

We consider the (discrete) parabolic Anderson model $\partial u(t,x)/\partial t=\Delta u(t,x) +\xi_t(x) u(t,x)$, $t\geq 0$, $x\in \mathbb{Z}^d$. Here, the $\xi$-field is $\mathbb{R}$-valued, acting as a dynamic random environment, and…

A random variable $\xi$ has a {\it light-tailed} distribution (for short: is light-tailed) if it possesses a finite exponential moment, $\E \exp (\lambda \xi) <\infty$ for some $\lambda >0$, and has a {\it heavy-tailed} distribution (is…

This is a continuation, and conclusion, of our study of bounded solutions $u$ of the semilinear parabolic equation $u_t=u_{xx}+f(u)$ on the real line whose initial data $u_0=u(\cdot,0)$ have finite limits $\theta^\pm$ as $x\to\pm\infty$. We…

Heavy-tailed distributions are infamously difficult to estimate because their moments tend to infinity as the shape of the tail decay increases. Nevertheless, this study shows the utilization of a modified group of moments for estimating a…

We consider nonlinear parabolic SPDEs of the form $\partial_t u=\sL u + \sigma(u)\dot w$, where $\dot w$ denotes space-time white noise, $\sigma:\R\to\R$ is [globally] Lipschitz continuous, and $\sL$ is the $L^2$-generator of a L\'evy…

We consider a super-critical Galton-Watson tree whose non-degenerate offspring distribution has finite mean. We consider the random trees $\tau$n distributed as $\tau$ conditioned on the n-th generation, Zn, to be of size an $\in$ N. We…

Consider a heavy-tailed branching process (denoted by $Z_{n}$) in random environments, under the condition which infers that $\mathbb{E}\log m(\xi_{0})=\infty$. We show that (1) there exists no proper $c_{n}$ such that $\{Z_{n}/c_{n}\}$ has…

This paper deals with the asymptotic behavior as $t\rightarrow T<\infty$ of all weak (energy) solutions of a class of equations with the following model representative: \begin{equation*} (|u|^{p-1}u)_t-\Delta_p(u)+b(t,x)|u|^{\lambda-1}u=0…

Standard statistical analysis is unable to provide reliable confidence intervals on expectation values of probability distributions that do not satisfy the conditions of the central limit theorem. We present a regression-based estimator of…

Let $\{u(t\,, x)\}_{t >0, x \in\mathbb{R}}$ denote the solution to the parabolic Anderson model with initial condition $\delta_0$ and driven by space-time white noise on $\mathbb{R}_+\times\mathbb{R}$, and let $p_t(x):= (2\pi…

Consider $n$ i.i.d. random vectors on $\mathbb{R}^2$, with unknown, common distribution function $F$. Under a sharpening of the extreme value condition on $F$, we derive a weighted approximation of the corresponding tail copula process.…

We consider the sums $S_n=\xi_1+\cdots+\xi_n$ of independent identically distributed random variables. We do not assume that the $\xi$'s have a finite mean. Under subexponential type conditions on distribution of the summands, we find the…

We consider the Cauchy-problem for a parabolic equation of the following type: \begin{equation*} \frac{\partial u}{\partial t}= \Delta u+ f(u,|x|), \end{equation*} where $f=f(u,|x|)$ is supercritical. We supply this equation by the initial…
