We recently demonstrated that standard fixed-time lattice random-walk models cannot be modified to properly represent biased diffusion processes in more than two dimensions. The origin of this fundamental limitation appears to be the fact…

The continuous-time random walk is defined as a Poissonization of discrete-time random walk. We study the noncolliding system of continuous-time simple and symmetric random walks on ${\mathbb{Z}}$. We show that the system is determinantal…

We present a new scheme for a discrete-time quantum walk on two- and three-dimensional lattices using a two-state particle. We use different Pauli basis as translational eigestates for different axis and show that the coin operation, which…

We introduce a stochastic global optimization method based on random walks on Grassmannian manifolds. To minimize a continuous objective $\ell:\mathbb{R}^d\rightarrow\mathbb{R}$, the method repeatedly samples random $k$-dimensional linear…

This paper introduces a spectral Monte Carlo iterative method (SMC) for solving linear Poisson and parabolic equations driven by $\alpha$-stable L\'evy process with $\alpha\in (0,2)$, which was initially proposed and developed by Gobet and…

In numerical simulations of many charged systems at the micro/nano scale, a common theme is the repeated solution of the Poisson-Boltzmann equation. This task proves challenging, if not entirely infeasible, largely due to the nonlinearity…

A straightforward analytical scheme is proposed for computing the long-time, asymptotic mean velocity and dispersivity (effective diffusivity) of a particle undergoing a discrete biased random walk on a periodic lattice amongst an array of…

Random walks are the simplest way to explore or search a graph, and have revealed a very useful tool to investigate and characterize the structural properties of complex networks from the real world, e.g. they have been used to identify the…

We propose a new second-order accurate lattice Boltzmann scheme that solves the quasi-static equations of linear elasticity in two dimensions. In contrast to previous works, our formulation solves for a single distribution function with a…

Novel Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods have enabled the generation of large ensembles of redistricting plans through graph partitioning. However, existing algorithms such as Reversible Recombination (RevReCom) and Metropolized Forest…

We develop Random Batch Methods for interacting particle systems with large number of particles. These methods use small but random batches for particle interactions, thus the computational cost is reduced from $O(N^2)$ per time step to…

We introduce a modified model of random walk, and then develop two novel clustering algorithms based on it. In the algorithms, each data point in a dataset is considered as a particle which can move at random in space according to the…

We propose random walks on suitably defined graphs as a framework for finescale modeling of particle motion in an obstructed environment where the particle may have interactions with the obstructions and the mean path length of the particle…

We consider a class of nonlinear elliptic problems associated with models in biophysics, which are described by the Poisson-Boltzmann equation (PBE). We prove mathematical correctness of the problem, study a suitable class of…

On a finite graph, there is a natural family of Boltzmann probability measures on cycle-rooted spanning forests, parametrized by weights on cycles. For a certain subclass of those weights, we construct Gibbs measures in infinite volume, as…

We propose a Monte Carlo method which performs a random walk in energy space using cluster-like collective updates. By imposing that bond probabilities depend continuously on the microcanonical temperature, we obtain dynamic exponents close…

Stochastic PDE solvers have emerged as a powerful alternative to traditional discretization-based methods for solving partial differential equations (PDEs), especially in geometry processing and graphics. While off-centered estimators…

We present a novel scheme for universal quantum computation based on spinless interacting bosonic quantum walkers on a piecewise-constant graph, described by the two-dimensional Bose-Hubbard model. Arbitrary X and Z rotations are…

The random order graph streaming model has received significant attention recently, with problems such as matching size estimation, component counting, and the evaluation of bounded degree constant query testable properties shown to admit…

The loop-erased random walk (LERW) in $\mathbb{Z}^4$ is the process obtained by erasing loops chronologically for simple random walk. We prove that the escape probability of the LERW renormalized by $(\log n)^{\frac{1}{3}}$ converges almost…
