Heat kernel estimates for anomalous heavy-tailed random walks

Mathav Murugan, Laurent Saloff-Coste

Sub-Gaussian estimates for the natural random walk is typical of many regular fractal graphs. Subordination shows that there exist heavy tailed jump processes whose jump indices ar…

Davies' method for anomalous diffusions

Mathav Murugan, Laurent Saloff-Coste

Davies' method of perturbed semigroups is a classical technique to obtain off-diagonal upper bounds on the heat kernel. However Davies' method does not apply to anomalous diffusion…

Isoperimetric profiles and random walks on some permutation wreath products

Laurent Saloff-Coste, Tianyi Zheng

We study the isoperimetric profiles of certain families of finitely generated groups defined via marked Schreier graphs and permutation wreath products. The groups we study are amo…

Random walks under slowly varying moment conditions on groups of polynomial volume growth

Laurent Saloff-Coste, Tianyi Zheng

Let be a finitely generated group of polynomial volume growth equipped with a word-length . The goal of this paper is to develop techniques to study the behavior of ra…

Harnack inequalities and Gaussian estimates for random walks on metric measure spaces

Mathav Murugan, Laurent Saloff-Coste

We characterize Gaussian estimates for transition probability of a discrete time Markov chain in terms of geometric properties of the underlying state space. In particular, we show…

Computing cutoff times of birth and death chains

Guan-Yu Chen, Laurent Saloff-Coste

Earlier work by Diaconis and Saloff-Coste gives a spectral criterion for a maximum separation cutoff to occur for birth and death chains. Ding, Lubetzky and Peres gave a related cr…
