Infinitesimal behaviour of a continuous local martingale
When two Markov operators commute, it suggests that we can couple two copies of one of the corresponding processes. We explicitly construct a number of couplings of this type for a commuting family of Markov processes on the set of conjugacy classes of the unitary group, using a dynamical rule inspired by the RSK algorithm. Our motivation for doing this is to develop a parallel programme, on the circle, to some recently discovered connections in random matrix theory between reflected and conditioned...
Let {Snbe a random walk in the domain of attraction of a stable law , i.e. there exists a sequence of positive real numbers ( an) such that Sn/anconverges in law to . Our main result is that the rescaled process (S⌊nt⌋/an, t≥0), when conditioned to stay positive, converges in law (in the functional sense) towards the corresponding stable Lévy process conditioned to stay positive. Under some additional assumptions, we also prove a related invariance principle for the random walk killed at its first...
Probabilistic normed linear spaces (briefly PNL spaces) were first studied by A. N. Serstnev in [1]. His definition was motivated by the definition of probabilistic metric spaces (PM spaces) which were introduced by K. Menger and subsequebtly developed by A. Wald, B. Schweizer, A. Sklar and others.In a previuos paper [2] we studied the relationship between two important classes of PM spaces, namely E-spaces and pseudo-metrically generated PM spaces. We showed that a PM space is pseudo-metrically...
We consider an isoperimetric problem for product measures with respect to the uniform enlargement of sets. As an example, we find (asymptotically) extremal sets for the infinite product of the exponential measure.
Biane found out that irreducible decomposition of some representations of the symmetric group admits concentration at specific isotypic components in an appropriate large n scaling limit. This deepened the result on the limit shape of Young diagrams due to Vershik-Kerov and Logan-Shepp in a wider framework. In particular, it is remarkable that asymptotic behavior of the Littlewood-Richardson coefficients in this regime was characterized in terms of an operation in free probability of Voiculescu....
