On extremes of a random walk with positive drift over an intermediate regularly varying time interval

Sergey Foss, Dmitry Korshunov

We consider a random walk with a finite positive drift that is stopped at a random time having an intermediate regularly varying distribution. We assume that the jump…

Maxima over random time intervals for heavy-tailed compound renewal and Lévy processes

Sergey Foss, Dmitry Korshunov, Zbigniew Palmowski

We derive subexponential tail asymptotics for the distribution of the maximum of a compound renewal process with linear component and of a Lévy process, both with negative drift, o…

Estimation of the last passage percolation constant in a charged complete directed acyclic graph via perfect simulation

Sergey Foss, Takis Konstantopoulos, Bastien Mallein +1

Our object of study is the asymptotic growth of heaviest paths in a charged (weighted with signed weights) complete directed acyclic graph. Edge charges are i.i.d. random variables…

Moments of the first descending epoch for a random walk with negative drift

Sergey Foss, Timofej Prasolov

We consider the first exit time from the positive halfline of a random walk with i.d.d. summands having a negative drif…

Non-standard limits for a family of autoregressive stochastic sequences

Sergey Foss, Matthias Schulte

We consider a family of multivariate autoregressive stochastic sequences that restart when hit a neighbourhood of the origin, and study their distributional limits when the autoreg…

Limit theorems for the maximal path weight in a directed graph on the line with random weights of edges

S. Foss, T. Konstantopoulos, A. Logachev +1

We consider the infinite directed graph with vertices the set of integers ...,-2,-1,0,1,2,... . Let v be a random variable taking either finite values or value "minus infinity". Co…

Structural Properties of Conditioned Random Walks on Integer Lattices with Random Local Constraints

Sergey Foss, Alexander Sakhanenko

We consider a random walk on a multidimensional integer lattice with random bounds on local times, conditioned on the event that it hits a high level before its death. We introduce…

Probabilistic and analytical properties of the last passage percolation constant in a weighted random directed graph

Sergey Foss, Takis Konstantopoulos, Artem Pyatkin

To each edge (i,j), i<j of the complete directed graph on the integers we assign unit weight with probability p or weight x with probability 1-p, independently from edge to edge, a…

Many greedy cleaners in a Poisson environment

Sergey Foss, Thomas Mountford

We introduce a new ``greedy cleaning'' model where a star-like state space (containing N half-lines connected by the origin) is covered by a homogeneous Poisson process of ``dust p…

Limiting properties of random graph models with vertex and edge weights

Sergey Foss, Takis Konstantopoulos

This paper provides an overview of results, concerning longest or heaviest paths, in the area of random directed graphs on the integers along with some extensions. We study first-o…

Tails in a fixed-point problem for a branching process with state-independent immigration

Sergey Foss, Masakiyo Miyazawa

We consider a fixed-point equation for a non-negative integer-valued random variable, that appears in branching processes with state-independent immigration. A similar equation app…

Limit theorems and structural properties of the Cat-and-Mouse Markov chain

Timofei Prasolov, Sergey Foss, Seva Shneer

We revisit the so-called Cat-and-Mouse Markov chain, studied earlier by Litvak and Robert (2012). This is a 2-dimensional Markov chain on the lattice , where the firs…

Customer sojourn time in GI/G/1 feedback queue in the presence of heavy tails

Sergey Foss, Masakiyo Miyazawa

We consider a single-server GI/GI/1 queueing system with feedback. We assume the service times distribution to be (intermediate) regularly varying. We find the tail asymptotics for…

Interference Queueing Networks on Grids

Abishek Sankararaman, François Baccelli, Sergey Foss

Consider a countably infinite collection of interacting queues, with a queue located at each point of the -dimensional integer grid, having independent Poisson arrivals, but dep…

Spatial random multiple access with multiple departure

Sergey Foss, Andrey Turlikov, Maxim Grankin

We introduce a new model of spatial random multiple access systems with a non-standard departure policy: all arriving messages are distributed uniformly on a finite sphere in the s…

Large-scale Join-Idle-Queue system with general service times

Sergey Foss, Alexander Stolyar

A parallel server system with identical servers is considered. The service time distribution has a finite mean , but otherwise is arbitrary. Arriving customers are be rout…

Stability and instability of a random multiple access model with adaptive energy harvesting

Sergey Foss, Dmitriy Kim, Andrey Turlikov

We introduce a model for the classical synchronised multiple access system with a single transmission channel and a randomised transmission protocol (ALOHA). We assume in addition…

Ivo Adan, Sergey Foss, Seva Shneer +1

We prove two propositions with conditions that a system, which is described by a transient Markov chain, will display local stability. Examples of such systems include partly overl…
