Reinforcement Learning for Jump‐Diffusions, With Financial Applications

open access: yesMathematical Finance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We study continuous‐time reinforcement learning (RL) for stochastic control in which system dynamics are governed by jump‐diffusion processes. We formulate an entropy‐regularized exploratory control problem with stochastic policies to capture the exploration–exploitation balance essential for RL.

Navigating Supply Shocks: Sector Resilience and Production Prices Through Stochastic Input–Output Modeling

open access: yesMathematical Finance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study develops a novel multivariate stochastic framework for assessing systemic risks, such as climate and nature‐related shocks, within production or financial networks. By embedding a linear stochastic fluid network, interpretable as a generalized vector Ornstein–Uhlenbeck process, into the production network of interdependent ...

Viability, Invariance and Reachability for Controlled Piecewise Deterministic Markov Processes Associated to Gene Networks

open access: yes, 2010
We aim at characterizing viability, invariance and some reachability properties of controlled piecewise deterministic Markov processes (PDMPs). Using analytical methods from the theory of viscosity solutions, we establish criteria for viability and ...

Online Jump and Kink Detection in Segmented Linear Regression: Statistical Optimality Meets Computational Efficiency

open access: yesJournal of Time Series Analysis, Volume 47, Issue 3, Page 727-748, May 2026.
ABSTRACT We consider the problem of sequential (online) estimation of a single change point in a piecewise linear regression model under a Gaussian setup. We demonstrate that certain CUSUM‐type statistics attain the minimax optimal rates for localizing the change point.

Cost Optimization in a GI/M/2/N Queue with Heterogeneous Servers, Working Vacations, and Impatient Customers via the Bat Algorithm

open access: yesMathematics
This paper analyzes a finite-capacity GI/M/2/N queue with two heterogeneous servers operating under a multiple working-vacation policy, Bernoulli feedback, and customer impatience.

On time reversal of piecewise deterministic Markov processes

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Probability, 2013
We study the time reversal of a general PDMP. The time reversed process is defined as $X_{(T-t)-}$, where $T$ is some given time and $X_t$ is a stationary PDMP. We obtain the parameters of the reversed process, like the jump intensity and the jump measure.

Causal Inference for Geostatistical Data Using an INLA‐based Spatial Propensity Score

open access: yesEnvironmetrics, Volume 37, Issue 3, April 2026.
ABSTRACT In this paper, we propose a Bayesian approach for spatial causal inference based on combining spatial propensity scoring with Integrated Nested Laplace Approximation. The method models both local and spillover exposure effects via multiple likelihoods and treats counterfactuals as missing data, allowing inference also for non‐Gaussian outcomes.

Emergent electrostatics in planar XY spin models: the bridge connecting topological order with broken U(1) symmetry

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics
Topological phases have been a central focus of condensed-matter physics for over 50 years. Along with many experimental applications, they have provided much intellectual interest due to their characterization via some form of topological ordering, as ...

Asymptotic Control for a Class of Piecewise Deterministic Markov Processes Associated to Temperate Viruses

open access: yes, 2015
We aim at characterizing the asymptotic behavior of value functions in the control of piece-wise deterministic Markov processes (PDMP) of switch type under nonexpansive assumptions.

Hybrid Reaction–Diffusion Epidemic Models: Dynamics and Emergence of Oscillations

open access: yesMathematical Methods in the Applied Sciences, Volume 49, Issue 5, Page 4074-4095, 30 March 2026.
ABSTRACT In this paper, we construct a hybrid epidemic mathematical model based on a reaction–diffusion system of the SIR (susceptible‐infected‐recovered) type. This model integrates the impact of random factors on the transmission rate of infectious diseases, represented by a probabilistic process acting at discrete time steps.
