Sojourn time in ℤ for the Bernoulli random walk on ℤ

Aimé Lachal (2012)

ESAIM: Probability and Statistics

Similarity:

Let (Sk)k≥1 be the classical Bernoulli random walk on the integer line with jump parameters p ∈ (0,1) and q = 1 − p. The probability distribution of the sojourn time of the walk in the set of non-negative integers up to a fixed time is well-known, but its expression is not simple. By modifying slightly...

Meeting time of independent random walks in random environment

Christophe Gallesco (2013)

ESAIM: Probability and Statistics

Similarity:

We consider, in the continuous time version, independent random walks on Z in random environment in Sinai’s regime. Let be the first meeting time of one pair of the random walks starting at different positions. We first show that the tail of the quenched distribution of , after a suitable rescaling, converges in probability, to some functional of the Brownian motion. Then we compute the law of this functional. Eventually, we obtain results about the...

Large deviations for directed percolation on a thin rectangle

Jean-Paul Ibrahim (2011)

ESAIM: Probability and Statistics

Similarity:

Following the recent investigations of Baik and Suidan in [(2005) 325–337] and Bodineau and Martin in [10 (2005) 105–112 (electronic)], we prove large deviation properties for a last-passage percolation model in ℤ whose paths are close to the axis. The results are mainly obtained when the random weights are Gaussian or have a finite moment-generating function and rely, as in [J. Baik and T.M. Suidan, (2005) 325–337] and [T. Bodineau and J. Martin, 10 (2005) 105–112 (electronic)],...

A note on quenched moderate deviations for Sinai's random walk in random environment

Francis Comets, Serguei Popov (2010)

ESAIM: Probability and Statistics

Similarity:

We consider the continuous time, one-dimensional random walk in random environment in Sinai's regime. We show that the probability for the particle to be, at time and in a typical environment, at a distance larger than () from its initial position, is exp{-Const ⋅ ln(1))}.

Smooth and sharp thresholds for random -XOR-CNF satisfiability

Nadia Creignou, Hervé Daudé (2010)

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications

Similarity:

The aim of this paper is to study the threshold behavior for the satisfiability property of a random -XOR-CNF formula or equivalently for the consistency of a random Boolean linear system with variables per equation. For we show the existence of a sharp threshold for the satisfiability of a random -XOR-CNF formula, whereas there are smooth thresholds for and .

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...

On the invariant measure of the random difference equation Xn = AnXn−1 + Bn in the critical case

Sara Brofferio, Dariusz Buraczewski, Ewa Damek (2012)

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

Similarity:

We consider the autoregressive model on ℝ defined by the stochastic recursion = −1 + , where {( , )} are i.i.d. random variables valued in ℝ× ℝ+. The critical case, when 𝔼 [ log A 1 ] = 0 , was studied by Babillot, Bougerol and Elie, who proved that there exists a unique invariant Radon measure for the Markov chain { }. In the present paper we prove that the weak limit of properly...

Survival probabilities of autoregressive processes

Christoph Baumgarten (2014)

ESAIM: Probability and Statistics

Similarity:

Given an autoregressive process of order (  =   + ··· +   +  where the random variables , ,... are i.i.d.), we study the asymptotic behaviour of the probability that the process does not exceed a constant barrier up to time (survival or persistence probability). Depending on the coefficients ,...,...

We consider complex sample covariance matrices = (1/)* where is a × random matrix with i.i.d. entries , 1 ≤ ≤ , 1 ≤ ≤ , with distribution . Under some regularity and decay assumptions on , we prove universality of some local eigenvalue statistics in the bulk of the spectrum in the limit where → ∞ and lim→∞ / = for any real number ∈ (0, ∞).

KPZ formula for log-infinitely divisible multifractal random measures

Rémi Rhodes, Vincent Vargas (2011)

ESAIM: Probability and Statistics

Similarity:

We consider the continuous model of log-infinitely divisible multifractal random measures (MRM) introduced in [E. Bacry et al. 236 (2003) 449–475]. If is a non degenerate multifractal measure with associated metric () = ([]) and structure function ζ, we show that we have the following relation between the (Euclidian) Hausdorff dimension dim of a measurable set and the Hausdorff dimension dim with respect to of the same set: ζ(dim ()) = dim(). Our results...

Plug-in estimation of level sets in a non-compact setting with applications in multivariate risk theory

Elena Di Bernardino, Thomas Laloë, Véronique Maume-Deschamps, Clémentine Prieur (2013)

ESAIM: Probability and Statistics

Similarity:

This paper deals with the problem of estimating the level sets () =  {() ≥ }, with  ∈ (0,1), of an unknown distribution function on ℝ . A plug-in approach is followed. That is, given a consistent estimator of , we estimate () by () =  { () ≥ }. In our setting, non-compactness property is required for the level sets to estimate. We state consistency results with respect to the Hausdorff distance and the volume of the symmetric...
