We prove an analogue of the classical ballot theorem that holds for any random walk in the range of attraction of the normal distribution. Our result is best possible: we exhibit examples demonstrating that if any of our hypotheses are…

This article discusses the problem of determining whether a given point, or set of points, lies within the convex hull of another set of points in $d$ dimensions. This problem arises naturally in a statistical context when using a…

As an effective theory, relativistic hydrodynamics is fixed by symmetries up to a set of transport coefficients. A lot of effort has been devoted to explicit calculations of these coefficients. Here we propose a shift in perspective: we…

Our paper gives bounds for the rate of convergence for a class of random walks on the d-dimensional torus generated by a set of n vectors in R^d/Z^d. We give bounds on the discrepancy distance from Haar measure; our lower bound holds for…

We consider random walks in dynamic random environments, with an environment generated by the time-reversal of a Markov process from the oriented percolation universality class. If the influence of the random medium on the walk is small in…

Random walk on the set of irreducible representations of a finite group is investigated. For the symmetric and general linear groups, a sharp convergence rate bound is obtained and a cutoff phenomenon is proved. As related results, an…

The position density of a "particle" performing a continuous-time quantum walk on the integer lattice, viewed on length scales inversely proportional to the time t, converges (as t tends to infinity) to a probability distribution that…

We study the asymptotic behavior of zero-drift random walks confined to multidimensional convex cones, when the endpoint is close to the boundary. We derive a local limit theorem in the fluctuation regime.

We describe the rate of growth of the derivative $C'$ of the convex minorant of a L\'evy path at times where $C'$ increases continuously. Since the convex minorant is piecewise linear, $C'$ may exhibit such behaviour either at the vertex…

Starting with a percolation model in $\Z^d$ in the subcritical regime, we consider a random walk described as follows: the probability of transition from $x$ to $y$ is proportional to some function $f$ of the size of the cluster of $y$.…

A succesful method to describe the asymptotic behavior of a discrete time stochastic process governed by some recursive formula is to relate it to the limit sets of a well chosen mean differential equation. Under an attainability condition,…

We study a one-dimensional random walk among random conductances, with unbounded jumps. Assuming the ergodicity of the collection of conductances and a few other technical conditions (uniform ellipticity and polynomial bounds on the tails…

We introduce a Gibbs measure on nearest-neighbour paths of length $t$ in the Euclidean $d$-dimensional lattice, where each path is penalised by a factor proportional to the size of its boundary and an inverse temperature $\beta$. We prove…

A new algorithm for the determination of the relative convex hull in the plane of a simple polygon A with respect to another simple polygon B which contains A, is proposed. The relative convex hull is also known as geodesic convex hull, and…

We are interested in the biased random walk on a supercritical Galton--Watson tree in the sense of Lyons, Pemantle and Peres, and study a phenomenon of slow movement. In order to observe such a slow movement, the bias needs to be random;…

Attributing a positive value \tau_x to each x in Z^d, we investigate a nearest-neighbour random walk which is reversible for the measure with weights (\tau_x), often known as "Bouchaud's trap model". We assume that these weights are…

In this note, we give an original convergence result for products of independent random elements of motion group. Then we consider dynamic random walks which are inhomogeneous Markov chains whose transition probability of each step is, in…

For a compact set $A$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$ the Hausdorff distance from $A$ to $\text{conv}(A)$ is defined by \begin{equation*} d(A):=\sup_{a\in\text{conv}(A)}\inf_{x\in A}|x-a|, \end{equation*} where for $x=(x_1,\dots,x_n)\in\mathbb{R}^n$ we…

The conic support measures localize the conic intrinsic volumes of closed convex cones in the same way as the support measures of convex bodies localize the intrinsic volumes of convex bodies. In this note, we extend the `Master Steiner…

Convex records have an appealing purely geometric definition. In a sequence of $d$-dimensional data points, the $n$-th point is a convex record if it lies outside the convex hull of all preceding points. We specifically focus on the…
