In a first part, using the recent measure classification results of Eskin--Lindenstrauss, we give a criterion to ensure a.s. equidistribution of empirical measures of an i.i.d. random walk on a homogeneous space $G/\Gamma$. Employing…
Parameter estimation in diffusion processes from discrete observations up to a first-hitting time is clearly of practical relevance, but does not seem to have been studied so far. In neuroscience, many models for the membrane potential…
Let $\mu$ be a Borel probability measure on a compact path-connected metric space $(X, \rho)$ for which there exist constants $c,\beta>1$ such that $\mu(B) \geq c r^{\beta}$ for every open ball $B\subset X$ of radius $r>0$. For a class of…
In this paper, we study in the Markovian case the rate of convergence in the Wasserstein distance of an approximation of the solution to a BSDE given by a BSDE which is driven by a scaled random walk as introduced in Briand, Delyon and…
The Born rule asserts the probability distribution of eigenstates observed in unbiased quantum measurements, but the reason it holds remains elusive. This manuscript discusses how the Born rule might be explained by Schrodinger equation…
Let $\mu$ be a positive measure supported on a domain $\Omega$. We consider the behavior of the balayage measure $\nu:=\mathrm{Bal}(\mu,\partial \Omega)$ near a point $z_{0}\in \partial \Omega$ at which $\Omega$ has an outward-pointing…
The gauge symmetries of a general dynamical system can be systematically obtained following either a Hamiltonean or a Lagrangean approach. In the former case, these symmetries are generated, according to Dirac's conjecture, by the first…
Bourgain used the Rudin-Shapiro sequences to construct a basis of uniformly bounded holomorphic functions on the unit sphere in $\mathbb{C}^2$. They are also spherical harmonics (i.e., Laplacian eigenfunctions) on $\mathbb{S}^3 \subset…
We prove that an approximated version of the Brunn--Minkowski inequality with volume distortion coefficient implies a Gaussian concentration-of-measure phenomenon. Our main theorem is applicable to discrete spaces.
We prove an almost sure invariance principle for a random walker among i.i.d. conductances in $\Z^d$, $d\geq 2$. We assume conductances are bounded from above but we dot require they are bounded from below.
The influence theorem for product measures on the discrete space {0,1}^N may be extended to probability measures with the property of monotonicity (which is equivalent to `strong positive-association'). Corresponding results are valid for…
In this work, we establish conditions ensuring convergence in distribution of a sequence admitting a Wiener-It\^o chaos representation to a nondegenerate Gaussian measure on a separable Hilbert space. Our first main result shows that,…
We determine the exact Hausdorff measure functions for the range and level sets of a class of Gaussian random fields satisfying sectorial local nondeterminism and other assumptions. We also establish a Chung-type law of the iterated…
We derive an asymptotic lower bound on the Shannon entropy $H$ of sums of $N$ arbitrary iid discrete random variables. The derived bound $H \geq \frac{r(X)}{2}\log(N) + {\it cst}$ is given in terms of the incommensurability rank $r(X)$ of…
We define a dynamical simple symmetric random walk in one dimension, and show that there almost surely exist exceptional times at which the walk tends to infinity. This is in contrast to the usual dynamical simple symmetric random walk in…
We consider the scaling behavior of the range and $p$-multiple range, that is the number of points visited and the number of points visited exactly $p\geq 1$ times, of simple random walk on ${\mathbb Z}^d$, for dimensions $d\geq 2$, up to…
The purpose of this paper is to study the problem of estimating a compactly supported density of probability from noisy observations of its moments. In fact, we provide a statistical approach to the famous Hausdorff classical moment…
We investigate random walks in independent, identically distributed random sceneries under the assumption that the scenery variables satisfy Cramer's condition. We prove moderate deviation principles in dimensions two and larger, covering…
