In Diaconis and Saloff-Coste (1996), the authors introduced the simple ``transvection" walk on $\mathrm{GL}_n(\mathbb F_2)$: at each step, choose two distinct rows and add one to the other. In Ben-Hamou (2025), the author recently proved…

We study a random walk driven by a particle system from a generic class, and establish a law of large numbers for the walk for almost all densities of the environment. To do so, we exploit the finite-ranged approximations of the environment…

In this article we establish a large deviation principle for the empirical measures of a simple spatially inhomogeneous random walk on $\overline{\mathbb{Z}}$, the two-point compactification of $\mathbb{Z}$. The classical Donsker--Varadhan…

We prove the open question posed by Zhuang and Hu in Remark 3.1. More generally, we consider symmetric joint probability mass functions and joint densities whose associated quadratic form is non-negative. In this class, for every \(r>0\),…

This paper considers a two-color, single-draw urn model with two types of balls, denoted type $1$ and type $2$, with initial counts $Y^1_0\in N^+$ and $Y^2_0\in N^+$, respectively. At each discrete time step, a ball is drawn uniformly at…

We prove that the continuous-time, single-flip Glauber dynamics for lozenge tilings of the size-$N$ hexagon mix in time $N^{2+o(1)}$. This was predicted to hold on fairly general domains of diameter $N$ (on the basis of the ``Lifshitz law''…

We study dynamic large deviations for the Kipnis--Marchioro--Presutti process on the discrete torus $\mathbb{T}_N^d$. By recasting the candidate rate function in terms of a linear hyperbolic-parabolic equation with rough drift, we show that…

This note studies the 1D stochastic heat equation driven by a one-dimensional Brownian motion. We prove that the associated Markov process satisfies the strong Feller property under mild non-degeneracy conditions. The approach combines…

We study the fluctuations of the number of real roots of random polynomials with independent, nonzero-mean coefficients. Such non-centered ensembles arise naturally in signal-plus-noise models and in random perturbations of deterministic…

We study systems of reaction-diffusion equations perturbed by multiplicative noise, where the reaction terms satisfy quasipositivity, a triangular mass-control structure, and polynomial growth. Our results apply to a broad class of…

We study the behaviour of the leftmost particle in a semi-infinite particle system on $\mathbb{Z}$, where each particle performs a continuous-time nearest-neighbour random walk, with particle-specific jump rates, subject to the exclusion…

Measure-valued P\'{o}lya sequences (MVPS) are processes whose dynamics are governed by generalized P\'{o}lya urn schemes with infinitely many colors. Assuming a general reinforcement rule, exchangeable MVPSs can be viewed as extensions of…

Given $a,b\ge 0$ and $t>0$, let $\rho =\{ \rho _{s}\} _{0\le s\le t}$ be a three-dimensional Bessel bridge from $a$ to $b$ over $[0,t]$. In this paper, based on a conditional identity in law between Brownian bridges stemming from Pitman's…

In these lecture notes, we review recent progress in the study of the stochastic heat equation and its discrete analogue, the directed polymer model, in spatial dimension 2. It was discovered that a phase transition emerges on an…

We consider a discrete Markov-additive process, that is a Markov chain on a state space $\mathbb{Z}^d \times E$ with invariant jumps along the $\mathbb{Z}^d$ component. In the case where the set $E$ is finite, we derive an asymptotic…

In this paper we focus on continuous univariate probability distributions, like McKay distributions, $K$-distribution, generalized inverse Gaussian distribution and generalised McKay distributions, with support $[0,\infty),$ which are…

We analyse the aggregate Loewner evolution (ALE), introduced in 2018 by Sola, Turner and Viklund to generalise versions of diffusion limited aggregation (DLA) in the plane using complex analysis. They showed convergence of the ALE for…

In the setting of stochastic Volterra equations, and in particular rough volatility models, we show that conditional expectations are the unique classical solutions to path-dependent PDEs. The latter arise from the functional It\^o formula…

We study a variant of the Generalized Excited Random Walk (GERW) on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ introduced by Menshikov, Popov, Ram\'irez and Vachkovskaia in [Ann. Probab. 40 (5), 2012]. It consists of a particular version of the model studied in [arXiv…

We consider a model of planar random aggregation from the ALE$(0,\eta)$ family where particles are attached preferentially in areas of low harmonic measure. We find that the model undergoes a phase transition in negative $\eta$, where for…
