We study the asymptotics as $t \to 0$ of the transition density of a class of $\mu$-symmetric diffusions in the case when the measure $\mu$ has a multi-fractal structure. These diffusions include singular time changes of Brownian motion on the…

We extend Krylov's $L_p$-solvability theory to the Cauchy problem for systems of parabolic stochastic partial differential equations. Some additional integrability and regularity properties are also presented.

We are interested in the component intervals of the complements of a monotone sequence $R_n \subseteq \dots \subseteq R_1$ of regenerative sets, for two natural embeddings. One is based on Bochner's subordination, and one on the intersection of independent regenerative…

The small diffusion and fast dying out asymptotics is calculated for nonlinear equations of a class of superprocesses on manifolds, and the corresponding logarithmic limit of the solution is shown to be given by a solution of a certain problem…

This paper proves upper and lower off-diagonal, sub-Gaussian transition probabilities estimates for strongly recurrent random walks under sufficient and necessary conditions. Several equivalent conditions are given showing their particular role and influence on the connection between the sub-Gaussian estimates, parabolic…

The probability that the cluster of the origin in critical site percolation on the triangular grid has diameter larger than $R$ is proved to decay like $R$ to the power $5/48$ as $R$ goes to infinity.

We give sharp rates of convergence for a natural Markov chain on the space of phylogenetic trees and dually for the natural random walk on the set of perfect matchings in the complete graph on $2n$ vertices. Roughly, the results…

We prove a self-normalized large deviation principle for sums of Banach space valued functions of a Markov chain. Self-normalization applies to situations for which a full large deviation principle is not available. We follow the lead of Dembo and Shao…

We consider the stirring process in the interval $\Lambda_N:=[-N,N]$ of $\mathbb Z$ with  births and deaths taking place in the intervals $I_+:=(N-K,N]$, and respectively $I_-:=[-N,-N+K)$, $1 \le K <N$. We prove bounds on the truncated moments uniform in $N$ which…

It is proved that the solutions to the slow diffusion stochastic porous media equation $dX-{\Delta}( |X|^{m-1}X )dt=\sigma(X)dW_t,$ $ 1< m\le 5,$ in $\mathcal{O}\subset\mathbb{R}^d,\ d=1,2,3,$ have the property of finite speed of propagation of disturbances for $\mathbb{P}\text{-a.s.}$ ${\omega}\in{\Omega}$ on a sufficiently…
