We extend the definition of Walsh's martingale measure stochastic integral so as to be able to solve stochastic partial differential equations whose Green's function is not a function but a Schwartz distribution. This is the case for the wave equation…

Let $M_d$ be the maximum of a standard Bessel bridge of dimension $d$. A series formula for $P(M_d \le a)$ due to Gikhman and Kiefer for $d = 1,2, \ldots$ is shown to be valid for all real $d >0$.…

For a quasi-regular (symmetric) Dirichlet space $( {\cal E}, {\cal F})$ and an associated symmetric standard process $(X_t, P_x)$, we show that, for $u in {\cal F}$, the additive functional $u^*(X_t) - u^*(X_0)$ is a semimartingale if and only if…

We consider Markov chains on the space of (countable) partitions of the interval $[0,1]$, obtained first by size biased sampling twice (allowing repetitions) and then merging the parts with probability $\beta_m$ (if the sampled parts are distinct) or splitting the…

We study the limit of functionals of stochastic processes for which an homogenization result holds. All these functionals involve stochastic integrals. Among them, we consider more particularly the Levy area and those giving the solutions of some SDEs. The main…

We study integrability and equivalence of $L^p$-norms of polynomial chaos elements. Relying on known results for Banach space valued polynomials, we extend and unify integrability for seminorms results to random elements that are not necessarily limits of Banach space valued…

We consider the $\beta$-Laguerre ensemble, a family of distributions generalizing the joint eigenvalue distribution of the Wishart random matrices. We show that the bulk scaling limit of these ensembles exists for all $\beta>0$ for a general family of parameters and…

For subordinators with positive drift we extend recent results on the structure of the potential measures and the renewal densities. Applying Fourier analysis a new representation of the potential densities is derived from which we deduce asymptotic results and show…

We give an alternative proof of a result by N. Gantert, Y. Hu and Z. Shi on the asymptotic behavior of the survival probability of the branching random walk killed below a linear boundary, in the special case of deterministic…

The paper contains the proofs of sharp moment estimates for Hilbert-space valued martingales under the assumptions of differential subordination and orthogonality. The results generalize those obtained by Banuelos and Wang. As an application, we sharpen an inequality for stochastic integrals…
