Localization and delocalization for heavy tailed band matrices

Florent Benaych-Georges, Sandrine Péché (2014)

Annales de l'I.H.P. Probabilités et statistiques

We consider some random band matrices with band-width N μ whose entries are independent random variables with distribution tail in x - α . We consider the largest eigenvalues and the associated eigenvectors and prove the following phase transition. On the one hand, when α l t ; 2 ( 1 + μ - 1 ) , the largest eigenvalues have order N ( 1 + μ ) / α , are asymptotically distributed as a Poisson process and their associated eigenvectors are essentially carried by two coordinates (this phenomenon has already been remarked for full matrices by Soshnikov...

Logarithmic capacity is not subadditive – a fine topology approach

Pavel Pyrih (1992)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

In Landkof’s monograph [8, p. 213] it is asserted that logarithmic capacity is strongly subadditive, and therefore that it is a Choquet capacity. An example demonstrating that logarithmic capacity is not even subadditive can be found e.gi̇n [6, Example 7.20], see also [3, p. 803]. In this paper we will show this fact with the help of the fine topology in potential theory.

Logarithmic Sobolev inequalities for inhomogeneous Markov Semigroups

Jean-François Collet, Florent Malrieu (2008)

ESAIM: Probability and Statistics

We investigate the dissipativity properties of a class of scalar second order parabolic partial differential equations with time-dependent coefficients. We provide explicit condition on the drift term which ensure that the relative entropy of one particular orbit with respect to some other one decreases to zero. The decay rate is obtained explicitly by the use of a Sobolev logarithmic inequality for the associated semigroup, which is derived by an adaptation of Bakry's Γ-calculus. As a byproduct,...

Log-optimal investment in the long run with proportional transaction costs when using shadow prices

Petr Dostál, Jana Klůjová (2015)

Kybernetika

We consider a non-consuming agent interested in the maximization of the long-run growth rate of a wealth process investing either in a money market and in one risky asset following a geometric Brownian motion or in futures following an arithmetic Brownian motion. The agent faces proportional transaction costs, and similarly as in [17] where the case of stock trading is considered, we show how the log-optimal optimal policies in the long run can be derived when using the technical tool of shadow...
