One-sided continuity properties for the Schonmann projection

Abstract

We consider the plus-phase of the two-dimensional Ising model below the critical temperature. In $1989$ Schonmann proved that the projection of this measure onto a one-dimensional line is not a Gibbs measure. After many years of continued research which have revealed further properties of this measure, the question whether or not it is a Gibbs measure in an almost sure sense remains open. In this paper we study the same measure by interpreting it as a temporal process. One of our main results is that the Schonmann projection is almost surely a regular $g$-measure. That is, it does possess the corresponding one-sided notion of almost Gibbsianness. We further deduce strong one-sided mixing properties which are of independent interest. Our proofs make use of classical coupling techniques and some monotonicity properties which are known to hold for one-sided, but not two-sided conditioning for FKG measures.

Averaging principles for nonautonomous multiscale stochastic Burgers equations with reflection

In this paper, we study averaging principles for nonautonomous multiscale stochastic Burgers equations with reflection. First, we derive a general averaging principle applicable to such equations under minimal assumptions. Subsequently, since the coefficients of the obtained averaged equation still depend on the small scaling parameter $\e$, we impose either periodic or asymptotic conditions on the coefficients, thereby obtain two distinct averaged equations whose coefficients are independent of $\e$ and establish two averaging principles. Stopping times and Khasminskii's time discretization schemes play an important role. Finally, a concrete example is provided to illustrate the applicability and validity of the theoretical results.

Spectral properties of Random Matrices

We give the theoretical foundations of random matrix theory through the definitions of a random matrix, a random probability measure and the corresponding empirical spectral distribution. The technical tool we use is the Stieltjes transform method through which we prove optimal convergence of the empirical spectral distribution of random sample covariance matrices to the deterministic Marchenko-Pastur distribution. We also give new results about the rigidity of the eigenvalues of this random sample covariance matrix and the rate of their convergence. We then define the Dyson equation method to prove new local laws about a random matrix model that interpolates between the Marchenko-Pastur distribution, the elliptical law and the circular law. Through our work these local laws can be considered universal.

Moments approach for the elephant random walk

We discuss the method of moments for the one-dimensional elephant random walk (ERW). We first derive a differential recurrence relation for the characteristic function of the ERW, which yields a corresponding system of recurrence relations for its moments. We then obtain asymptotic approximations for the moments in each of the three parameter regimes of the ERW. Finally, by establishing the convergence of the moments and verifying the corresponding moment-determinacy conditions, we identify the limiting distributions of the ERW in each regime.
