Mixing times and moving targets [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We consider irreducible Markov chains on a finite state space. We show that the mixing time of any such chain is equivalent to the maximum, over initial states $x$ and moving large sets $(A_s)_s$, of the hitting time of $(A_s)_s$ starting from $x$.

Quantum walks on quotient graphs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
A discrete-time quantum walk on a graph is the repeated application of a unitary evolution operator to a Hilbert space corresponding to the graph. If this unitary evolution operator has an associated group of symmetries, then for certain initial states ...

Poincaré inequalities and hitting times

open access: yesAnnales de l'Institut Henri Poincaré, Probabilités et Statistiques, 2013
Equivalence of the spectral gap, exponential integrability of hitting times and Lyapunov conditions are well known. We give here the correspondance (with quantitative results) for reversible diffusion processes. As a consequence, we generalize results of Bobkov in the one dimensional case on the value of the Poincar constant for logconcave measures ...

Statistical analysis of random walks on network

open access: yesScientific Journal of Astana IT University, 2021
This paper describes an investigation of analytical formulas for parameters in random walks. Random walks are used to model situations in which an object moves in a sequence of steps in randomly chosen directions.

Tail probability of the hitting time of Brownian motion to a sphere with fixed hitting sites [PDF]

open access: yesOpuscula Mathematica
We consider \(d\)-dimensional Brownian motion \(\{B_\mu(t)\}_{t\geqq0}\) with a drift \(\mu\in\mathbb{R}^d\) and the first hitting time \(\sigma_{r,\mu}^{(d)}\) to the sphere with radius \(r\) centered at the origin.

Inverse functions for Monte Carlo simulations with applications to hitting time distributions

open access: yesEngineering Reports, 2021
Random sampling is a ubiquitous tool in simulations and modeling in a variety of applications. There are efficient algorithms for several known distributions, but in general, one must resort to computing or approximating the inverse of the distributions ...

Convolution-type derivatives, hitting-times of subordinators and time-changed $C_0$-semigroups [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In this paper we will take under consideration subordinators and their inverse processes (hitting-times). We will present in general the governing equations of such processes by means of convolution-type integro-differential operators similar to the ...

On some dynamical features of the complete Moran model for neutral evolution in the presence of mutations [PDF]

open access: yesOpen Communications in Nonlinear Mathematical Physics
We present a version of the classical Moran model, in which mutations are taken into account; the possibility of mutations was introduced by Moran in his seminal paper, but it is more often overlooked in discussing the Moran model.

Mixing Times are Hitting Times of Large Sets [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Theoretical Probability, 2013
We consider irreducible reversible discrete time Markov chains on a finite state space. Mixing times and hitting times are fundamental parameters of the chain. We relate them by showing that the mixing time of the lazy chain is equivalent to the maximum over initial states x and large sets A of the hitting time of A starting from x.
