This course focuses on Modeling, quantification, and analysis of uncertainty by teaching random variables, simple random processes and their probability distributions, Markov processes, limit theorems, elements of statistical inference, and decision making under uncertainty. This course extends the discrete probability learned in the discrete math class. It focuses on actual applications, and places little emphasis on proofs.

In this paper one generalizes the classical probability and imprecise probability to the notion of “neutrosophic probability” in order to be able to model Heisenberg’s Uncertainty Principle of a particle’s behavior, Schrödinger’s Cat Theory, and the state of bosons which do not obey Pauli’s Exclusion Principle (in quantum physics). Neutrosophic probability is close related to neutrosophic logic and neutrosophic set, and etymologically derived from “neutrosophy”.

We continue our investigation of the intertwining relations for Markov semigroups and extend the results of [9] to multi-dimensional diffusions. In particular these formulae entail new functional inequalities of Brascamp-Lieb type for log-concave distributions and beyond. Our results are illustrated by some classical and less classical examples.

The Euclidean first-passage percolation (FPP) model of Howard and Newman is a rotationally invariant model of FPP which is built on a graph whose vertices are the points of homogeneous Poisson point process. It was shown that one has (stretched) exponential concentration of the passage time $T_n$ from $0$ to $n\mathbf{e}_1$ about its mean on scale $\sqrt{n}$, and this was used to show the bound $\mu n \leq \mathbb{E}T_n \leq \mu n + C\sqrt{n} (\log n)^a$ for $a,C>0$ on the discrepancy...

Two frameworks that have been used to characterize reflected diffusions include stochastic differential equations with reflection and the so-called submartingale problem. We introduce a general formulation of the submartingale problem for (obliquely) reflected diffusions in domains with piecewise C^2 boundaries and piecewise continuous reflection vector fields. Under suitable assumptions, we show that well-posedness of the submartingale problem is equivalent to existence and uniqueness in law...

Consider the following equation $$\partial_t u_t(x)=\frac{1}{2}\partial _{xx}u_t(x)+\lambda \sigma(u_t(x))\dot{W}(t,\,x)$$ on an interval. Under Dirichlet boundary condition, we show that in the long run, the second moment of the solution grows exponentially fast if $\lambda$ is large enough. But if $\lambda$ is small, then the second moment eventually decays exponentially. If we replace the Dirichlet boundary condition by the Neumann one, then the second moment grows exponentially fast no...

We address the problem of Lyapunov function construction for a class of continuous-time Markov chains with affine transition rates, typically encountered in stochastic chemical kinetics. Following an optimization approach, we take advantage of existing bounds from the Foster-Lyapunov stability theory to obtain functions that enable us to estimate the region of high stationary probability, as well as provide upper bounds on moments of the chain. Our method can be used to study the stationary...

We study a general class of quadratic BSDEs with terminal value in Lp for p>1. We prove a Lp-type estimate, existence, comparison theorem, uniqueness and stability result. In order to construct a solution, we use a combination of the localization procedure developed by Briand and Hu [6] and the monotone stability result. We point out that our existence result relies on rather weak assumptions on the generators. By additionally assuming monotonicity and convexity, we deduce the comparison...

We comment on the significance of these estimates to a range of currently-studied problems, including the recent results of Chevyrev and Lyons in [18].

In (Barbour, 1990) foundations for diffusion approximation via Stein's method are laid. This paper has been cited more than 130 times and is a cornerstone in the area of Stein's method. A semigroup argument is used therein to solve a Stein equation for Gaussian diffusion approximation. We prove that, contrary to the claim in (Barbour, 1990), the semigroup considered therein is not strongly continuous on the Banach space of continuous, real-valued functions on D[0,1] growing slower than a cubic,...

A detailed study is made of the number of occupied seats in an unfriendly seating scheme with two rows of seats. An unusual identity is derived for the probability generating function, which is itself an asymptotic expansion. The identity implies particularly a local limit theorem with optimal convergence rate. Our approach relies on the resolution of Riccati equations.

We study the exploration (or height) process of a continuous time non-binary Galton-Watson random tree, in the subcritical, critical and supercritical cases. Thus we consider the branching process in continuous time (Z_{t})_{t\geq 0}, which describes the number of offspring alive at time t. We then renormalize our branching process and exploration process, and take the weak limit as the size of the population tends to infinity. Finally we deduce a Ray-Knight representation.

Remarkably, it is a non trivial problem to construct particular solutions to this problem. In this article, we introduce a family of such martingale couplings, each of which admits several characterizations in terms of...

Coherent lower previsions are general models of uncertainty in probability distributions. They are often approximated by some less general models, such as coherent lower probabilities or in terms of some finite set of constraints. The amount of error induced by the approximations has been often neglected in the literature, despite the fact that it can be quite substantial. The aim of this paper is to provide a general method for estimating the exact degree of error for given approximations of...

Thanks to Madan-Yor's argument, it follows that the WDS ordering is a necessary and sufficient condition for a process with negative mean to be embeddable in a standard Brownian motion by the Cox and Hobson extension of the Az\'ema-Yor algorithm. Since the decreasing stochastic order is stronger than the WDS order, then, for...

Moreover, conditionally on this hitting time, the Brownian motion up to that time has the law of a 3-dimensional Bessel bridge.

The joint probability distribution of the complex eigenvalues of the product matrix is found to be given by a determinantal point process as in the case of a single Cauchy-Lorentz matrix, but with weight given by a Meijer G-function depending on $n$ and $N_i$.

We investigate so-called generalized Mandelbrot cascades at the freezing (critical) temperature. It is known that, after a proper rescaling, a~sequence of multiplicative cascades converges weakly to some continuous random measure. Our main question is how the limiting measure $\mu$ fluctuates. For any given point $x$, denoting by $B_n(x)$ the ball of radius $2^{-n}$ centered around $x$, we present optimal lower and upper estimates of $\mu(B_n(x))$ as $n \to \infty$.

A weak-convergence rate for the corresponding Galerkin approximation is derived. The convergence result is derived by use of the Malliavin derivative rather then the common approach via the Kolmogorov backward equation.

For a refracted spectrally negative Levy process, we find some new and fantastic formulas for its q-potential measures without killing. Unlike previous results, which are written in terms of the known q-scale functions, our formulas are free of the q-scale functions. This makes our results become extremely important since it is likely that our formulas also hold for a general refracted Levy process.

We consider an $M/M/1$ queueing system with impatient customers with multiple and single vacations. It is assumed that customers are impatient whenever the state of the server. We derive the probability generating functions of the number of customers in the system and we obtain some performance measures.

We derive the alternating arm exponents of critical Ising model. We obtain six different patterns of alternating boundary arm exponents which correspond to the boundary conditions $(\ominus\oplus)$, $(\ominus\text{free})$ and $(\text{free}\text{free})$, and the alternating interior arm exponents.
