Hausdorff dimension of fermions on a random lattice

Geometric properties of lattice quantum gravity in two dimensions are studied numerically via Monte Carlo on Euclidean Dynamical Triangulations. A new computational method is proposed to simulate gravity coupled with fermions, which allows the study of int ...

CONVERGENCE AND NONCONVERGENCE OF SCALED SELF-INTERACTING RANDOM WALKS TO BROWNIAN MOTION PERTURBED AT EXTREMA

Thomas Mountford

We use generalized Ray-Knight theorems, introduced by B. Toth in 1996, together with techniques developed for excited random walks as main tools for establishing positive and negative results concerning convergence of some classes of diffusively scaled sel ...

Metastability of the Potts Ferromagnet on Random Regular Graphs

Jean Bernoulli Ravelomanana

We study the performance of Markov chains for the q-state ferromagnetic Potts model on random regular graphs. While the cases of the grid and the complete graph are by now well-understood, the case of random regular graphs has resisted a detailed analysis ...

Wind, Hail, and Climate Extremes: Modelling and Attribution Studies for Environmental Data

Ophélia Mireille Anna Miralles

This thesis presents work at the junction of statistics and climate science. We first provide methodology for use by climate scientists when performing fast event attribution using extreme value theory, and then describe two interdisciplinary projects in c ...

Lp-regularity theory for the stochastic reaction-diffusion equation with super-linear multiplicative noise and strong dissipativity

Jaeyun Yi

We study the existence, uniqueness, and regularity of the solution to the stochastic reaction-diffusion equation (SRDE) with colored noise F-center dot:partial derivative(t)u = aijuxixj +biuxi + cu - bu1+beta +xi u1+gamma F-center dot, (t, x) is ...

Resource aware pricing for electric vehicle charging

Nils Gustav Nilsson

Electric vehicle charging facilities offer their capacity constrained electric charge and parking to users for a fee. As electric vehicle adoption grows, so too does the potential for excessive resource utilization. In this paper, we study how prices set b ...

Splitting probabilities and mean first-passage times across multiple thresholds of jump-and-drift transition paths

Paolo Perona, Giulio Calvani

We apply the stochastic-trajectory analysis to derive exact expressions for the mean first passage times of jump-and-drift transition paths across two or more consecutive thresholds. We perform the analysis of the crossing statistics in terms of dimensionl ...

Atomic scale volume and grain boundary diffusion elucidated by in situ STEM

Johann Michler, Xavier Maeder, Laszlo Pethö

Diffusion is one of the most important phenomena studied in science ranging from physics to biology and, in abstract form, even in social sciences. In the field of materials science, diffusion in crystalline solids is of particular interest as it plays a p ...

Dynamics of Dual-Mode Bedload Transport With Three-Dimensional Alternate Bars Migration in Subcritical Flow: Experiments and Model Analysis

Mehrdad Kiani Oshtorjani

Bedload transport often exhibits dual-mode behavior due to interactions of spatiotemporal controlling factors with the migrating three-dimensional bedforms (characterized by the fully developed patterns in the bed, such as alternate bars, pools, and cluste ...

Intrinsic area near the origin for self-similar growth-fragmentations and related random surfaces

François Gaston Ged

We study the behaviour of a natural measure defined on the leaves of the genealogical tree of some branching processes, namely self-similar growth-fragmentation processes. Each particle, or cell, is attributed a positive mass that evolves in continuous tim ...

Preconditioners for robust optimal control problems under uncertainty

Fabio Nobile, Tommaso Vanzan

The discretization of robust quadratic optimal control problems under uncertainty using the finite element method and the stochastic collocation method leads to large saddle-point systems, which are fully coupled across the random realizations. Despite its ...

The exploration process of critical Boltzmann planar maps decorated by a triangular O(n) loop model

Aleksandra Korzhenkova

In this paper we investigate pointed (q, g, n)-Boltzmann loop-decorated maps with loops traversing only inner triangular faces. Using peeling exploration Budd (2018) modified to this setting we show that its law in the non-generic critical phase can be cod ...

Brownian half-plane excursion and critical Liouville quantum gravity

Juhan Aru

In a groundbreaking work, Duplantier, Miller and Sheffield showed that subcritical Liouville quantum gravity (LQG) coupled with Schramm-Loewner evolutions (SLE) can be obtained by gluing together a pair of Brownian motions. In this paper, we study the coun ...

Clustering and Informative Path Planning for 3D Gas Distribution Mapping: Algorithms and Performance Evaluation

Alcherio Martinoli, Chiara Ercolani, Lixuan Tang

Chemical gas dispersion can represent a severe threat to human and animal lives, as well as to the environment. Constructing a map of the distribution of gas in a fast and reliable manner is critical to ensure accurate monitoring of at-risk facilities and ...

Functional estimation of anisotropic covariance and autocovariance operators on the sphere

Victor Panaretos, Julien René Fageot, Matthieu Martin Jean-André Simeoni, Alessia Caponera

We propose nonparametric estimators for the second-order central moments of possibly anisotropic spherical random fields, within a functional data analysis context. We consider a measurement framework where each random field among an identically distribute ...

Dynamical low rank approximation for uncertainty quantification of time-dependent problems

Eva Vidlicková

The quantification of uncertainties can be particularly challenging for problems requiring long-time integration as the structure of the random solution might considerably change over time. In this respect, dynamical low-rank approximation (DLRA) is very a ...

Reduced representations of complexes, signals, and multifiltrations

Celia Camille Hacker

The field of computational topology has developed many powerful tools to describe the shape of data, offering an alternative point of view from classical statistics. This results in a variety of complex structures that are not always directly amenable for ...

Convergence of random walks with Markovian cookie stacks to Brownian motion perturbed at extrema

Thomas Mountford

We consider one-dimensional excited random walks (ERWs) with i.i.d. Markovian cookie stacks in the non-boundary recurrent regime. We prove that under diffusive scaling such an ERW converges in the standard Skorokhod topology to a multiple of Brownian motio ...

Sparsely Observed Functional Time Series: Theory and Applications

Tomas Rubin

Functional time series is a temporally ordered sequence of not necessarily independent random curves. While the statistical analysis of such data has been traditionally carried out under the assumption of completely observed functional data, it may well ha ...

A Continuized View on Nesterov Acceleration

Nicolas Henri Bernard Flammarion, Raphaël Jean Berthier

We introduce the "continuized" Nesterov acceleration, a close variant of Nesterov acceleration whose variables are indexed by a continuous time parameter. The two variables continuously mix following a linear ordinary differential equation and take gradien ...
