Pathwise approximations of processes based on the fine structure of their filtrations
The objective of this paper is to introduce some recursive methods that can be used for estimating an value. These methods can be used more generally for the estimation of the -quantile of an unknown distribution provided we have 0-1 observations at our disposal. Standard methods based on the Robbins-Monro procedure are introduced together with different approaches of Wu or Mukerjee. Several examples are also mentioned in order to demonstrate the usefulness of the methods presented.
In this work, a parametric sequential estimation method of survival functions is proposed in the Bayesian nonparametric context when neutral to the right processes are used. It is proved that the mentioned method is an 1-SLA rule when Dirichlet processes are used; furthermore, asymptotically pointwise optimal procedures are obtained. Finally, an example is given.
This paper gives an approximation of the solution of the Boltzmann equation by stochastic interacting particle systems in a case of cut-off collision operator and small initial data. In this case, following the ideas of Mischler and Perthame, we prove the existence and uniqueness of the solution of this equation and also the existence and uniqueness of the solution of the associated nonlinear martingale problem. Then, we first delocalize the interaction by considering a mollified Boltzmann...
The aim of this paper is to take an in-depth look at the long time behaviour of some continuous time markovian dynamical systems and at its numerical analysis. We first propose a short overview of the main ergodicity properties of time continuous homogeneous Markov processes (stability, positive recurrence). The basic tool is a Lyapunov function. Then, we investigate if these properties still hold for the time discretization of these processes, either with constant or decreasing step (ODE method...
