Abstract

In this paper we study weighted distances in scale-free spatial network models: hyperbolic random graphs (HRG), geometric inhomogeneous random graphs (GIRG) and scale-free percolation (SFP). In HRGs, $n=Θ(\mathrm{e}^{R/2})$ vertices are sampled independently from the hyperbolic disk with radius $R$ and two vertices are connected either when they are within hyperbolic distance $R$, or independently with a probability depending on the hyperbolic distance. In GIRGs and SFP, each vertex is given an independent weight and location from an underlying measured metric space and $\mathbb{Z}^d$, respectively, and two vertices are connected independently with a probability that is a function of their distance and weights. We assign i.i.d. weights to the edges of the random graphs and study the weighted distance between two uniformly chosen vertices. In SFP, we study the weighted distance from the origin of vertex-sequences with norm tending to infinity. In particular, we study the case when the parameters are so that the degree distribution in the graph follows a power law with exponent $τ\in(2,3)$ (infinite variance), and the edge-weight distribution is such that it produces an explosive age-dependent branching process with power-law offspring distribution. We show that in all three models, typical distances within the giant/infinite component converge in distribution, solving an open question in [Explosion and distances in scale-free percolation (2017)]. The main tools of our proof are to couple the models to infinite versions, to follow the shortest paths to infinity and to connect these paths using weight-dependent percolation on the graphs: delete edges attached to vertices with higher weight with higher probability. We realise this using the edge-weights: only short edges connected to high weight vertices will stay, yielding arbitrarily short upper bounds for the connections.

Local well-posedness of general mean field game master equations

This paper presents a generic approach for establishing mean field game master equations, applicable whenever the mean field equilibrium can be characterized by a McKean-Vlasov forward-backward stochastic differential equation system. The core of our approach is a representation formula for the first-order Lions derivative of the decoupling field of this forward-backward SDE system. We then employ a bootstrap argument to recursively compute its higher-order derivatives. To demonstrate the method's versatility, we establish the local well-posedness for master equations in three distinct models: extended mean field games, mean field games with volatility control, and mean field games with a major player.

Uniqueness for nonlinear Fokker-Planck equations with general diffusion terms and their associated nonlinear Markov processes

This work is concerned with the uniqueness of distributional solutions to nonlinear Fokker-Planck equations with non-diagonal diffusion terms of type \begin{equation} u_{t}-\sum_{i,j=1}^{d} D^{2}_{ij}(a_{ij}(x)β(x,u))+ \text{div}(b(x,u)u)=0 \quad \text{in}\; (0, \infty) \times \mathbb{R}^{d} ,\notag \end{equation} with initial condition $u(0,x)\equiv u_{0}(x)$, where $a_{ij}$, $β$, and $b$ are suitable functions. Under suitable assumptions, this equation generates a continuous contraction semigroup $S(t): L^{1}(\mathbb{R}^{d}) \rightarrow L^{1}(\mathbb{R}^{d})$, and $u(t)=S(t)u_{0}$ is a mild solution to the equation. Our main contribution is to prove that this mild solution is unique in the much larger class of distributional solutions. This extends previous uniqueness results for the diagonal (also called isotropic) diffusion case $a_{ij} \equiv δ_{ij}$. Another key analytical result of this paper is the uniqueness for distributional solutions of the associated linearized equation. As a main application, we prove weak uniqueness for the corresponding McKean-Vlasov SDEs. Moreover, we prove that, the probabilistically weak solution to the McKean-Vlasov SDEs is also the unique probabilistically strong solution. Furthermore, we establish a new $L^{\infty}$ estimate for mild solutions starting from data in $L^{1}\cap L^{\infty}$ and this estimate is used in the construction of nonlinear Markov processes. Finally, we prove that the path laws of the solutions to the McKean-Vlasov SDEs form a nonlinear Markov process in the sense of McKean.

Small-time annealed large deviations principle for one-dimensional diffusions in a random environment

In this paper, we establish a small-time annealed path large deviation principle for one-dimensional diffusions in a random environment associated with the generator ${\mathcal L}_W f(x)=e^{-ρ(x,W)}(e^{a(x,W)}f'(x))'$. The coefficients $\{ρ(x,\cdot):x\in\mathbb R\}$ and $\{a(x,\cdot):x\in\mathbb R\}$ are random. We assume that for each fixed realization of the environment, $ρ$ and $a$ are continuous and locally exponentially integrable, and that the support of the associated intrinsic coordinates is compact and non-collapsing. This framework includes the extensively studied Brox diffusion $dX_t=dB_t-\frac12\dot W(X_t)\,dt$, where $B$ is a standard Brownian motion and $W$ is an independent two-sided Brownian motion representing the environment. The Itô--McKean representation of the diffusions and the estimates of the first exit probabilities derived via Moser iteration play a crucial role.
