Transient random walk in 2 with stationary orientations

Françoise Pène (2009)

ESAIM: Probability and Statistics

In this paper, we extend a result of Campanino and Pétritis [Markov Process. Relat. Fields 9 (2003) 391–412]. We study a random walk in 2 with random orientations. We suppose that the orientation of the kth floor is given by ξ k , where ( ξ k ) k is a stationary sequence of random variables. Once the environment fixed, the random walk can go either up or down or can stay in the present floor (but moving with respect to its orientation). This model was introduced by Campanino and Pétritis in [Markov Process....

Transitions on a noncompact Cantor set and random walks on its defining tree

Jun Kigami (2013)

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

First, noncompact Cantor sets along with their defining trees are introduced as a natural generalization of p -adic numbers. Secondly we construct a class of jump processes on a noncompact Cantor set from given pairs of eigenvalues and measures. At the same time, we have concrete expressions of the associated jump kernels and transition densities. Then we construct intrinsic metrics on noncompact Cantor set to obtain estimates of transition densities and jump kernels under some regularity conditions...

Transportation inequalities for stochastic differential equations of pure jumps

Liming Wu (2010)

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

For stochastic differential equations of pure jumps, though the Poincaré inequality does not hold in general, we show that W1H transportation inequalities hold for its invariant probability measure and for its process-level law on right continuous paths space in the L1-metric or in uniform metrics, under the dissipative condition. Several applications to concentration inequalities are given.

Tunnel effect for semiclassical random walk

Jean-François Bony, Frédéric Hérau, Laurent Michel (2014)

Journées Équations aux dérivées partielles

In this note we describe recent results on semiclassical random walk associated to a probability density which may also concentrate as the semiclassical parameter goes to zero. The main result gives a spectral asymptotics of the close to 1 eigenvalues. This problem was studied in [1] and relies on a general factorization result for pseudo-differential operators. In this note we just sketch the proof of this second theorem. At the end of the note, using the factorization, we give a new proof of the...

Two algorithms based on Markov chains and their application to recognition of protein coding genes in prokaryotic genomes

Małgorzata Grabińska, Paweł Błażej, Paweł Mackiewicz (2013)

Applicationes Mathematicae

Methods based on the theory of Markov chains are most commonly used in the recognition of protein coding sequences. However, they require big learning sets to fill up all elements in transition probability matrices describing dependence between nucleotides in the analyzed sequences. Moreover, gene prediction is strongly influenced by the nucleotide bias measured by e.g. G+C content. In this paper we compare two methods: (i) the classical GeneMark algorithm, which uses a three-periodic non-homogeneous...
