Polynomial bounds in the Ergodic theorem for one-dimensional diffusions and integrability of hitting times

Eva Löcherbach, Dasha Loukianova, Oleg Loukianov (2011)

Similarity:

Let be a one-dimensional positive recurrent diffusion with initial distribution and invariant probability . Suppose that for some >1, ∈ℝ such that ∀∈ℝ, and , where is the hitting time of . For such a diffusion, we derive non-asymptotic deviation bounds of the form ℙ(|(1/)0 ( ) d−()|≥)≤()(1/ /2)(1/ )(). Here bounded or bounded and compactly supported and ()=‖‖∞ when is bounded and ()=(||) when is...

Strong law of large numbers for branching diffusions

János Engländer, Simon C. Harris, Andreas E. Kyprianou (2010)

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

Similarity:

Let be the branching particle diffusion corresponding to the operator +(2−) on ⊆ℝ (where ≥0 and ≢0). Let denote the generalized principal eigenvalue for the operator + on and assume that it is finite. When >0 and +− satisfies certain spectral theoretical conditions, we prove that the random measure {− } converges almost surely in the vague topology as tends to infinity. This result...

Spectral Galerkin approximation of Fokker-Planck equations with unbounded drift

David J. Knezevic, Endre Süli (2008)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

Similarity:

This paper is concerned with the analysis and implementation of spectral Galerkin methods for a class of Fokker-Planck equations that arises from the kinetic theory of dilute polymers. A relevant feature of the class of equations under consideration from the viewpoint of mathematical analysis and numerical approximation is the presence of an unbounded drift coefficient, involving a smooth convex potential that is equal to +∞ along the boundary ∂ of the computational domain . Using...

Time-homogeneous diffusions with a given marginal at a random time

Alexander M. G. Cox, David Hobson, Jan Obłój (2011)

ESAIM: Probability and Statistics

Similarity:

We solve explicitly the following problem: for a given probability measure , we specify a generalised martingale diffusion () which, stopped at an independent exponential time , is distributed according to . The process ( ) is specified its speed measure . We present two heuristic arguments and three proofs. First we show how the result can be derived from the solution of [Bertoin and Le Jan, 20 (1992) 538–548.] to the Skorokhod embedding problem. Secondly, we give a...

Product of exponentials and spectral radius of random k-circulants

Arup Bose, Rajat Subhra Hazra, Koushik Saha (2012)

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

Similarity:

We consider × random -circulant matrices with → ∞ and = () whose input sequence { }≥0 is independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) random variables with finite (2 + ) moment. We study the asymptotic distribution of the spectral radius, when = + 1. For this, we first derive the tail behaviour of the fold product of i.i.d. exponential random variables. Then using this tail behaviour result and appropriate normal approximation techniques, we...
