Deposition, diffusion, and nucleation on an interval
Nicholas Georgiou, Andrew R. Wade
Motivated by nanoscale growth of ultra-thin films, we study a model of deposition, on an interval substrate, of particles that perform Brownian motions until any two meet, when the…
Markov chains with heavy-tailed increments and asymptotically zero drift
Nicholas Georgiou, Mikhail V. Menshikov, Dimitri Petritis +1
We study the recurrence/transience phase transition for Markov chains on , , and whose increments have heavy tails with exponent in …
Invariance principle for non-homogeneous random walks
Nicholas Georgiou, Aleksandar Mijatović, Andrew R. Wade
We prove an invariance principle for a class of zero-drift spatially non-homogeneous random walks in , which may be recurrent in any dimension. The limit $\mathcal{X}…
A radial invariance principle for non-homogeneous random walks
Nicholas Georgiou, Aleksandar Mijatović, Andrew R. Wade
Consider non-homogeneous zero-drift random walks in , , with the asymptotic increment covariance matrix satisfying $\mathbf{u}^\top σ^2 (…
