Applying the concept of matricial freeness which generalizes freeness in free probability, we have recently studied asymptotic joint distributions of symmetric blocks of Gaussian random matrices (Gaussian Symmetric Block Ensemble). This…

In this paper, we study the limiting distribution of the eigenvalues for random tridiagonal matrix models. The limiting distribution is well described by its moments. Here, an analytical approach allows us, as in the case of Wigner…

In deep latent Gaussian models, the latent variable is generated by a time-inhomogeneous Markov chain, where at each time step we pass the current state through a parametric nonlinear map, such as a feedforward neural net, and add a small…

We study a class of time-inhomogeneous diffusion: the self-interacting one. We show a convergence result with a rate of convergence that does not depend on the diffusion coefficient. Finally, we establish a so-called Kramers' type law for…

This paper uses dynamical invariants to describe the evolution of collisionless systems subject to time-dependent gravitational forces without resorting to maximum-entropy probabilities. We show that collisionless relaxation can be viewed…

The (matricial) solution set of a Linear Matrix Inequality (LMI) is a convex basic non-commutative semi-algebraic set. The main theorem of this paper is a converse, a result which has implications for both semidefinite programming and…

We introduce a Langevin equation characterized by a time dependent drift. By assuming a temporal power-law dependence of the drift we show that a great variety of behavior is observed in the dynamics of the variance of the process. In…

For $n\in\mathbb{N}$, let $\{X^n_i\}$ be an infinite collection of Brownian particles on the real line where the leftmost particle $\min_iX^n_i(t)$ is given a drift $n$, and let $\mu^n_t=n^{-1}\sum_i\delta_{X^n_i(t)}$, $t\ge0$ denote the…
