We determine the range of Hurst parameters that provide the necessary and sufficient conditions for the solvability, in $L^2(\Omega)$, of the stochastic wave equation: $ \frac{\partial^2 }{\partial t^2}u(t,x) =\Delta u(t,x)+\dot{W}(t,x)$,…

We consider the symmetric inclusion process on a general finite graph. Our main result establishes universal upper and lower bounds for the spectral gap of this interacting particle system in terms of the spectral gap of the random walk on…

Consider a random walk on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ in a translation-invariant and ergodic random environment and starting from the origin. In this short note, assuming that a quenched invariance principle for the opportunely-rescaled walks holds, we…

Let $\Xi_n \subset \mathbb R^d$, $n\ge 1$, be a sequence of finite sets and consider a $\Xi_n$-valued, irreducible, reversible, continuous-time Markov chain $(X^{(n)}_t:t\ge 0)$. Denote by $\mathscr P(\mathbb R^d) $ the set of probability…

The present note is an essential addition to the author's arxiv paper arXiv:2001.01070, concerning general multiplicative systems of random variables. Using some lemmas and the methodology of \cite{Kar4}, we obtain a general extreme…

Occupancy processes are a broad class of discrete time Markov chains on $\{0,1\}^{n}$ encompassing models from diverse areas. This model is compared to a collection of $n$ independent Markov chains on $\{0,1\}$, which we call the…

The convective Brinkman-Forchheimer equations (CBFEs) \[ \frac{\partial \boldsymbol{X}}{\partial t} - \mu \Delta\boldsymbol{X} + (\boldsymbol{X}\cdot\nabla)\boldsymbol{X} + \alpha\boldsymbol{X} + \beta|\boldsymbol{X}|^{r-1}\boldsymbol{X} +…

We establish a simultaneous generalization of It\^o's theory of stochastic and Lyons' theory of rough differential equations. The interest in such a unification comes from a variety of applications, including pathwise stochastic filtering,…

We establish scaling limit theorems for the up-down ordered Chinese restaurant processes (oCRPs) of Rogers and Winkel as processes in a space of interval partitions. As previously conjectured, the limits are self-similar diffusions…

Tau leaping is a popular method for performing fast approximate simulation of certain continuous time Markov chain models typically found in chemistry and biochemistry. This method is known to perform well when the transition rates satisfy…

We consider the Gaussian free field on two-dimensional slabs with a thickness described by a height $h$ at spatial scale $N$. We investigate the radius of critical clusters for the associated cable-graph percolation problem, which depends…

We consider $N$ counters taking integer values which are subject to the following dynamics. At every time, a pair of distinct counters is chosen uniformly at random and their states are updated according to the following rule. If the states…

This paper introduces the \textbf{detachment process}, a novel, time-inhomogeneous Markov process inspired by I. P. T\'oth's problem \cite{Toth} concerning the number of ``lonely passengers'' (those without companions) when $n$ passengers…

These are a set of lecture notes for a mini-course I gave at The University of Warwick from October 30th to November 1st, 2024. Recordings of the lectures are available on Oleg Zaboronski's webpage at…

Given an infinite connected graph $G$, a way to randomly perturb its metric is to assign random i.i.d. lengths to the edges of the graph, a process called first-passage percolation. Assume that the graph is infinite and of bounded degree.…

In this paper, we establish the Boltzmann-Gibbs principle in the $L^p$ sense by applying the Littlewood-Paley-Stein inequality. Our model is an asymmetric Ginzburg-Landau interface model on a one-dimensional periodic lattice. Assuming…

Our aim is to study the well-posedness of quasilinear stochastic partial differential equations driven by G-Brownian motion (GSPDEs for short) and the associated backward doubly stochastic differential equations (GBDSDEs for short). We…

We construct a random partition of the space-time plane $\mathbb{R}_+\times \mathbb{R}$ using two coupled stochastic squared Bessel flows, whose parameters differ by $\delta\in (0,2)$. We show that the cells of this partition correspond to…

We analyze the following dynamics on a connected graph $(V,E)$ with $n$ vertices. Let $V = I \bigcup B$, where the set of interior vertices $I \ne \emptyset$ is disjoint from the set of boundary vertices $B \neq \emptyset$. Given $p > 1$…

We study the distribution of the magnetization of the critical mean-field O(N) model with N > 1. Specifically, we bound the Wasserstein distance between the finite-volume and limiting distributions, in terms of the number of spins. To…
