We consider irreversible Markov chains on finite commutative rings randomly generated using both addition and multiplication. We restrict ourselves to the case where the addition is uniformly random and multiplication is arbitrary. We first…

We consider the typical asymptotic behaviour of cellular automata of higher dimension (greater than 2). That is, we take an initial configuration at random according to a Bernoulli (i.i.d) probability measure, iterate some cellular…

In this paper, we study Bessel processes of dimension $\delta\equiv2(1-\mu)$, with $0<\delta<2$, and some related martingales and random times. Our approach is based on martingale techniques and the general theory of stochastic processes…

In this paper we examine the asymptotic theory for U-statistics and V-statistics of discontinuous Ito semimartingales that are observed at high frequency. For different types of kernel functions we show laws of large numbers and associated…

We prove the max-martingale conjecture given in recent article with Marc Yor. We show that for a continuous local martingale $(N\_t:t\ge 0)$ and a function $H:R x R\_+\to R$, $H(N\_t,\sup\_{s\leq t}N\_s)$ is a local martingale if and only…

We reconsider the problem of calculating arbitrary negative integer moments of the (regularized) characteristic polynomial for $N\times N$ random matrices taken from the Gaussian Unitary Ensemble (GUE). A very compact and convenient…

We study the valuation of an American put option with a random time horizon given by the last exit time of the underlying asset from a fixed level. Since this random time is not a stopping time, the problem falls outside the classical…

Self-normalized processes arise naturally in statistical applications. Being unit free, they are not affected by scale changes. Moreover, self-normalization often eliminates or weakens moment assumptions. In this paper we present several…

We set up a new notion of local convergence for permutations and we prove a characterization in terms of proportions of \emph{consecutive} pattern occurrences. We also characterize random limiting objects for this new topology introducing a…

For $p > 1$ let a function $\varphi_p(x) = x^2/2$ if $|x|\le 1$ and $\varphi_p(x) = 1/p|x|^p -1/p + 1/2$ if $|x| > 1$. For a random variable $\xi$ let $\tau_{\varphi_p}(\xi)$ denote $\inf\{c\ge 0 :\; \forall_{\lambda\in\mathbb{R}}\;…

Let $W_t(\theta)$ be the Biggins martingale of a supercritical branching L\'evy process with non-local branching mechanism, and denote by $W_\infty(\theta)$ its limit. In this paper, we first study moment properties of $W_t(\theta)$ and…

We develop a general framework for extracting highly uniform bounds on local stability for stochastic processes in terms of information on fluctuations or crossings. This includes a large class of martingales: As a corollary of our main…

A novel approach is proposed to establish a sharp upper bound on the expected supremum of a separable martingale random field, serving as an alternative to classical universal chaining-based methods. The proposed approach begins by deriving…

A natural problem in the context of the coupon collector's problem is the behavior of the maximum of independent geometrically distributed random variables (with distinct parameters). This question has been addressed by Brennan et al.…

We consider partial sums of a weighted Steinhaus random multiplicative function and view this as a model for the Riemann zeta function. We give a description of the tails and high moments of this object. Using these we determine the likely…

Rotor walk is deterministic counterpart of random walk on graphs. We study that under a certain initial configuration in Z^d, n particles perform rotor walks from the origin consecutively. They would stop if they hit the origin or infinity.…

In a recent article we have discussed the connections between averages of powers of Riemann's $\zeta$-function on the critical line, and averages of characteristic polynomials of random matrices. The result for random matrices was shown to…

Starting from the seventies mathematicians face the question whether a non-negative local martingale is a true or a strict local martingale. In this article we answer this question from a semimartingale perspective. We connect the…

The decision time of an infinite time algorithm is the supremum of its halting times over all real inputs. The decision time of a set of reals is the least decision time of an algorithm that decides the set; semidecision times of…

We conjecture the full asymptotic expansion of a product of Riemann zeta functions, evaluated at the non-trivial zeros of the zeta function, with shifts added in each argument. By taking derivatives with respect to these shifts, we form a…
