We first obtain the existence, uniqueness and a blow-up criterion of pathwise solutions in Sobolev space H with s > 3/2. Then we prove that strong enough noise can prevent blow-up with probability 1, which justifies the regularization effect of strong nonlinear noise in preventing singularities. Besides, such strengths of noise are estimated in different examples. Finally, for the interplay between regularization effect induced by the noise and the dependence on initial conditions, we introduce and investigate the stability of the exiting time and construct an example to show that the multiplicative noise cannot improve both the stability of the exiting time and the continuity of the dependence on initial data simultaneously. Résumé. Dans cet article, nous considérons les effets du bruit sur une classe d’équations d’évolution stochastiques y compris les équations stochastiques de Camassa–Holm avec ou sans rotation. Nous obtenons d’abord l’existence, l’unicité et un critère d’explosion de solutions pathwises dans l’espace de Sobolev H avec s > 3/2. Ensuite, nous prouvons qu’un bruit suffisamment fort peut empêcher l’explosion avec une probabilité de 1, ce qui justifie l’effet régularisant du bruit non linéaire fort dans la prévention des singularités. De plus, de telles forces de bruit sont estimées dans les examples différents. Enfin, pour l’interaction entre l’effet de régularisation induit par le bruit et la dépendance aux conditions initiales, nous introduisons et étudions la stabilité du temps de sortie et construisons un exemple pour montrer que le bruit multiplicatif ne peut pas améliorer simultanément la stabilité du temps de sortie et la continuité de la dépendance aux données initiales.

We prove an Erdős-Rényi– Shepp strong law for the increments. 1. Definitions and main results The classical Erdős-Rényi–Shepp strong law of large numbers [4], [5], asserts as follows. Theorem 1.1 (Erdős-Rényi 1970, Shepp 1964). Consider a random walk Sn = ∑n i=1Xi with Xi i.i.d., satisfying EX1 = 0. Set φ(t) = E[e tX ] and let D φ = {t > 0 : φ(t) < ∞}. Let α > 0 be such that φ(t)e −αt achieves its minimum value for some t in the interior of D φ . Set 1/Aα := − logmin t>0 φ(t)e −αt. Then, Aα > 0 and (1.1) max 0≤j≤n−⌊Aα logn⌋ Sj+⌊Aα logn⌋ − Sj ⌊Aα log n⌋ a.s. → α, a.s. In the particular case of Xi ∈ {−1, 1}, the assumptions of the theorem are satisfied for any α ∈ (0, 1). The theorem also trivially generalizes to EX1 ̸= 0, by considering Yi = Xi − EXi. Theorem 1.1 is closely related to the large deviation principle for Sn/n given by Cramér’s theorem, see e.g. [3] for background. Indeed, with I(x) = supt(tx−log φ(t)) denoting the rate function, one observes that I(α) = 1/Aα and that (1.2) α = inf{x > 0 : I(x) > 1/Aα}. In this paper, we prove an analogous statement for standard one dimensional random walk in random environment (RWRE), in the case of positive velocity. We begin by introducing the model. Fix a realization ω = {ωi}i∈Z with ωi ∈ (0, 1) of a collection of i.i.d. random variables, which we call the environment. With p denoting the law of ω0 and σ(p) its support, denote by P = pZ the law of the environment on Σp := σ(p) Z. We make throughout the following assumption. Condition 1.2 (Uniform Ellipticity). There exists a κ ∈ (0, 1) such that σ(p) ⊂ [κ, 1− κ] almost surely. Date: May 4, 2020. Revised May 19, 2021 and July 8, 2021.

It will be useful for us to consider also different laws of the environment Σ = [κ, 1 − κ]Z, not necessarily product laws. Such laws will be denoted η. Equipping Σ with the standard shift operator θ, so that (θω)j := ωi+j , the spaces of probability measures (stationary/ ergodic wrt θ) on Σ are denoted M1(Σ) (M s 1 (Σ)/M e 1 (Σ)), respectively; similar definitions hold when Σ is replaced by Σp. On top of ω we consider the RWRE, which is a nearest neighbor random walk {Xt}t∈Z. Conditioned on the environment ω, {Xt} is a Markov chain with transition probabilities π(i, i+ 1) = 1− π(i, i− 1) = ωi. We denote the law of the random walk, started at i ∈ Z and conditioned on a fixed realization of the environment ω, by Pi (the so-called quenched law). For any measure η ∈ M1(Σ), the measure η(dω) ⊗ Pi is referred to as the annealed law, and denoted by P i ; with some abuse of notation, w","PeriodicalId":42884,"journal":{"name":"Annales de l Institut Henri Poincare D","volume":"63 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2022-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80500925","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Strauch, Lukas Trottner","doi":"10.1214/21-aihp1235","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1214/21-aihp1235","url":null,"abstract":"Up to now, the nonparametric analysis of multidimensional continuous-time Markov processes has focussed strongly on specific model choices, mostly related to symmetry of the semigroup. While this approach allows to study the performance of estimators for the characteristics of the process in the minimax sense, it restricts the applicability of results to a rather constrained set of stochastic processes and in particular hardly allows incorporating jump structures. As a consequence, for many models of applied and theoretical interest, no statement can be made about the robustness of typical statistical procedures beyond the beautiful, but limited framework available in the literature. To contribute to the statistical understanding in more general situations, we demonstrate how combining βmixing assumptions on the process and heat kernel bounds on the transition density representing controls on the longand short-time transitional behaviour, allow to obtain sup-norm and L kernel invariant density estimation rates that match the well-understood case of reversible multidimensional diffusion processes and are faster than in a sampled discrete data scenario. Moreover, we demonstrate how, up to log-terms, optimal sup-norm adaptive invariant density estimation can be achieved within our framework, based on tight uniform moment bounds and deviation inequalities for empirical processes associated to additive functionals of Markov processes. The underlying assumptions are verifiable with classical tools from stability theory of continuous-time Markov processes and PDE techniques, which opens the door to evaluate statistical performance for a vast amount of popular Markov models. We highlight this point by showing how multidimensional jump SDEs with Lévy-driven jump part under different coefficient assumptions can be seamlessly integrated into our framework, thus establishing novel adaptive sup-norm estimation rates for this class of processes.

Our starting point is a recent result from PDE [2] which implies the following dichotomy: if x ∈ R is fixed and β ≤ β∗(α) := α d+α , then Xt(x) > 0 a.s. on {Xt 6= 0}; otherwise, the probability that Xt(x) is positive when conditioned on {Xt 6= 0} has power law decay. We strengthen this and prove probabilistically that if β < β∗(α) and the density is continuous, which holds if and only if d = 1 and α > 1+ β, then Xt(x) > 0 for all x ∈ R a.s. on {Xt 6= 0}. The above complements a classical superprocess result that if Xt is non-zero, then it charges every open set almost surely. We unify and extend these results by giving close to sharp conditions on a measure μ such that μ(Xt) := ∫ Xt(x)μ(dx) > 0 a.s. on {Xt 6= 0}. Our characterization is based on the size of supp(μ), in the sense of Hausdorff measure and dimension. For s ∈ [0, d], if β ≤ β∗(α, s) = α d−s+α and supp(μ) has positive x-Hausdorff measure, then μ(Xt) > 0 a.s. on {Xt 6= 0}; and when β > β ∗(α, s), if μ satisfies a uniform lower density condition which implies dim(supp(μ)) < s, then P (μ(Xt) = 0 |Xt 6= 0) > 0. Our methods also give new results for the fractional PDE which is dual to the (α, β)superprocess, i.e. ∂tu(t, x) = ∆αu(t, x)− u(t, x) 1+β with domain (t, x) ∈ (0,∞) × R, where ∆α = −(−∆) α","PeriodicalId":42884,"journal":{"name":"Annales de l Institut Henri Poincare D","volume":"9 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2022-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81535420","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
