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...

Sojourn time in ℤ+ for the Bernoulli random walk on ℤ

Aimé Lachal (2012)

ESAIM: Probability and Statistics

Similarity:

Let (S) be the classical Bernoulli random walk on the integer line with jump parameters  ∈ (01) and  = 1 − . 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 this sojourn time through a particular counting process of the zeros of the walk as done by Chung & Feller [35 (1949) 605–608], simpler representations may be obtained for its probability...

Universality of slow decorrelation in KPZ growth

Ivan Corwin, Patrik L. Ferrari, Sandrine Péché (2012)

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

Similarity:

There has been much success in describing the limiting spatial fluctuations of growth models in the Kardar–Parisi–Zhang (KPZ) universality class. A proper rescaling of time should introduce a non-trivial temporal dimension to these limiting fluctuations. In one-dimension, the KPZ class has the dynamical scaling exponent = 3/2, that means one should find a universal space–time limiting process under the scaling of time as , space like 2/3 and fluctuations like 1/3 as → ∞. In this paper...

Density of paths of iterated Lévy transforms of brownian motion

Marc Malric (2012)

ESAIM: Probability and Statistics

Similarity:

The Lévy transform of a Brownian motion is the Brownian motion given by = sgn()d; call the Brownian motion obtained from by iterating times this transformation. We establish that almost surely, the sequence of paths ( → ) is dense in Wiener space, for the topology of uniform convergence on compact time intervals.

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...

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...

α-time fractional brownian motion: PDE connections and local times

Erkan Nane, Dongsheng Wu, Yimin Xiao (2012)

ESAIM: Probability and Statistics

Similarity:

For 0 <  ≤ 2 and 0 <  < 1, an -time fractional Brownian motion is an iterated process  =  {() = (()) ≥ 0}  obtained by taking a fractional Brownian motion  {() ∈ ℝ} with Hurst index 0 <  < 1 and replacing the time parameter with a strictly -stable Lévy process {() ≥ 0} in ℝ independent of {() ∈ R}. It is shown that such processes have natural connections to partial differential equations and, when is a stable subordinator, can arise as scaling limit...

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 ,...,...

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...

Similarity:

We consider the standard first passage percolation model in ℤ for  ≥ 2 and we study the maximal flow from the upper half part to the lower half part (respectively from the top to the bottom) of a cylinder whose basis is a hyperrectangle of sidelength proportional to and whose height is () for a certain height function . We denote this maximal flow by (respectively ). We emphasize the fact that the cylinder may be tilted. We look at the probability that...

Xavier Gendre (2014)

ESAIM: Probability and Statistics

Similarity:

Let  ∈ ℝ be a random vector with mean and covariance matrix where is some known  × -matrix. We construct a statistical procedure to estimate as well as under moment condition on or Gaussian hypothesis. Both cases are developed for known or unknown . Our approach is free from any prior assumption on and is based on non-asymptotic model selection methods....
