The level of self-organized criticality in oscillating Brownian motion: nn-consistency and stable Poisson-type convergence of the MLE

This paper establishes that for discretely observed oscillating Brownian motion, the maximum likelihood estimator of the self-organized criticality level achieves nn-consistency and converges stably to a bivariate Poisson-type distribution, despite the non-standard challenge posed by the discontinuity of the transition density at the true parameter.

Quantization of Probability Distributions via Divide-and-Conquer: Convergence and Error Propagation under Distributional Arithmetic Operations

This paper introduces and analyzes a divide-and-conquer algorithm for quantizing one-dimensional probability distributions, establishing a universal Wasserstein-1 error bound and demonstrating through numerical experiments that the method achieves optimal convergence rates while offering superior stability under arithmetic operations compared to existing schemes.

Mosco-convergence of Cheeger energies on varying spaces satisfying curvature dimension conditions

This paper establishes the Mosco-convergence of Cheeger energies on Gromov-Hausdorff converging spaces satisfying curvature-dimension conditions by employing a Lagrangian approach that combines Wasserstein geodesic stability with nonsmooth calculus duality, thereby ensuring the continuity of Neumann eigenvalues even in infinite-dimensional settings.

Gibbs polystability of Fano manifolds, stability thresholds and symmetry breaking

This paper extends the probabilistic construction of Kähler-Einstein metrics to Fano manifolds with non-discrete automorphism groups by introducing Gibbs polystability and symmetry-breaking via moment map constraints, conjecturing its equivalence to metric existence and the emergence of unique metrics in the large-N limit, while proving these results for log Fano curves and deriving a strengthened logarithmic Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev inequality with optimal stability constants.

On the Tail Transition of First Arrival Position Channels: From Cauchy to Exponential Decay

This paper characterizes the transition of first arrival position channel noise from heavy-tailed Cauchy to exponentially decaying distributions under nonzero drift, identifying a characteristic propagation distance that delineates diffusion-dominated and drift-dominated regimes while demonstrating that Gaussian approximations fail to capture communication potential in low-drift environments.

Autocorrelation effects in a stochastic-process model for decision making via time series

This study employs a stochastic-process model to demonstrate that the optimal autocorrelation of time-series signals for solving multi-armed bandit problems depends on the reward environment, with negative autocorrelation being advantageous in reward-rich settings and positive autocorrelation in reward-poor ones, while performance remains independent of autocorrelation when the sum of winning probabilities equals one.

Space-time boundaries for random walks and their application to operator algebras

This paper investigates the Martin boundary of space-time Markov chains associated with finitely supported random walks to establish structural connections between various compactifications and harmonic function boundaries, ultimately demonstrating that the noncommutative Shilov boundary of the associated tensor algebra coincides with its Toeplitz CC^*-algebra.
