Soft local times and decoupling of random interlacements

Serguei Popov, Augusto Teixeira (2015)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

In this paper we establish a decoupling feature of the random interlacement process u d at level u , d 3 . Roughly speaking, we show that observations of u restricted to two disjoint subsets A 1 and A 2 of d are approximately independent, once we add a sprinkling to the process u by slightly increasing the parameter u . Our results differ from previous ones in that we allow the mutual distance between the sets A 1 and A 2 to be much smaller than their diameters. We then provide an important application of this...

Spatial stochastic predator-prey models

Mauro Mobilia, Ivan T. Georgiev, Uwe C. Täuber (2008)

Banach Center Publications

We consider a broad class of stochastic lattice predator-prey models whose main features are overviewed. In particular, this article aims at drawing a picture of the influence of spatial fluctuations, which are not accounted for by the deterministic rate equations, on the properties of the stochastic models. Here, we outline the robust scenario obeyed by most of the lattice predator-prey models with an interaction à la Lotka-Volterra. We also show how a drastically different behavior can emerge...

Supercritical self-avoiding walks are space-filling

Hugo Duminil-Copin, Gady Kozma, Ariel Yadin (2014)

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

In this article, we consider the following model of self-avoiding walk: the probability of a self-avoiding trajectory γ between two points on the boundary of a finite subdomain of d is proportional to μ - length ( γ ) . When μ is supercritical (i.e. μ l t ; μ c where μ c is the connective constant of the lattice), we show that the random trajectory becomes space-filling when taking the scaling limit.

Variance decay for functionals of the environment viewed by the particle

Jean-Christophe Mourrat (2011)

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

For the random walk among random conductances, we prove that the environment viewed by the particle converges to equilibrium polynomially fast in the variance sense, our main hypothesis being that the conductances are bounded away from zero. The basis of our method is the establishment of a Nash inequality, followed either by a comparison with the simple random walk or by a more direct analysis based on a martingale decomposition. As an example of application, we show that under certain conditions,...
