We study time-uniform statistical inference for parameters in stochastic approximation (SA), which encompasses a bunch of applications in optimization and machine learning. To that end, we analyze the almost-sure convergence rates of the…

In this paper, we study a cosmological model inspired in the axionic matter with two canonical scalar fields $\phi_1$ and $\phi_2$ interacting through a term added to its potential. Introducing novel dynamical variables, and a dimensionless…

The time it takes a random walker in a lattice to reach the origin from another vertex $x$, has infinite mean. If the walker can restart the walk at $x$ at will, then the minimum expected hitting time $T(x,0)$ (minimized over restarting…

For one-dimensional symmetric L\'{e}vy processes, which hit every point with positive probability, we give sharp bounds for the tail function of the first hitting time of B which is either a single point or an interval. The estimates are…

Under unitary evolution, systems move gradually from state to state. An unstable atom has amplitude in its original state after many lifetimes ($\tau_L$). But in the laboratory, transitions seem to go instantaneously, as suggested by the…

Interval analysis, when applied to the so called problem of experimental data fitting, appears to be still in its infancy. Sometimes, partly because of the unrivaled reliability of interval methods, we do not obtain any results at all.…

A gedanken-experiment is proposed for `weighing'' the total mass of a closed system from within the system. We prove that for an internal observer the time $\tau$, required to measure the total energy with accuracy $\Delta E$, is bounded…

We analyze equilibration times of subsystems of a larger system under a random total Hamiltonian, in which the basis of the Hamiltonian is drawn from the Haar measure. We obtain that the time of equilibration is of the order of the inverse…

We show that the distribution of times for a diffusing particle to first hit an absorber is \emph{independent} of the direction of an external flow field, when we condition on the event that the particle reaches the target for flow away…

Let $(\xi_1, \eta_1)$, $(\xi_2, \eta_2),\ldots$ be independent copies of an $\mathbb{R}^2$-valued random vector $(\xi, \eta)$ with arbitrarily dependent components. Put $T_n:= \xi_1+\ldots+\xi_{n-1} + \eta_n $ for $n\in\mathbb{N}$ and…

We establish general conditions under which there exists uniform in time convergence between a stochastic process and its approximated system. These standardised conditions consist of a local in time estimate between the original and the…

For a dynamical system, we study the set of points $\cal W$ whose orbit approximates any chosen point at certain specified rates. Our basic setting is that of left shift acting on topological Markov chains endowed with a local weak Gibbs…

We investigate the average time for the earliest particle to hit a spherical absorber when a homogeneous gas of freely diffusing particles with density $\rho$ and diffusivity $D$ is prepared in a deterministic state and is initially…

In this work we consider a simple random walk embedded in a generic branched structure and we find a close-form formula to calculate the hitting time $H\left(i,f\right)$ between two arbitrary nodes $i$ and $j$. We then use this formula to…

According to a conjecture of Lindenstrauss and Tsukamoto, a topological system $(X,T)$ embeds in the $d$-dimensional cubical shift $(([0,1]^d)^\mathbb{Z},$shift) if its mean dimension and periodic dimension verify mdim$(X,T)<d/2$ and…

The properties of the mean first passage time in a system characterized by multiple periodic attractors are studied. Using a transformation from a high dimensional space to 1D, the problem is reduced to a stochastic process along the path…

This paper investigates necessary and sufficient barrier-like conditions for infinite-horizon safety and reach-avoid verification of stochastic discrete-time systems, derived via a relaxation of the Bellman equations. Unlike prior…

The study considers advantages of the introduced measure of time based on the entropy change under irreversible processes (entropy production). Using the example of non-equilibrium expansion of an ideal gas in vacuum, such a measure is…

We study the problem of reconstructing and predicting the future of a dynamical system by the use of time-delay measurements of typical observables. Considering the case of too few measurements, we prove that for Lipschitz systems on…

It is shown that for two large subclasses of discrete-time nonlinear systems - analytic systems defined on a compact state space and rational systems - the minimum length $r^*$ for input sequences, called here accessibility index of the…
