Previous work on the model has focused on proving existence and uniqueness of infinite-volume gradient Gibbs measures with a given tilt and on studying the fluctuations of the surface and its discrete gradient. In this work we focus on the convergence of the thermodynamic limit, establishing convergence of the finite-volume distributions with Dirichlet boundary conditions to translation-covariant (gradient) Gibbs measures. Specifically, it is shown that, when the law of the random field has finite second moment and is symmetric, the distribution of the gradient of the surface converges in dimensions $dgeq4$ while the distribution of the surface itself converges in dimensions $dgeq 5$. Moreover, a power-law upper bound on the rate of convergence in Wasserstein distance is obtained.

We consider classic and randomized stopping times represented by linear and non-linear functionals of the rough path signature $mathbb{X}^{<infty}$ associated to $X$, and prove that maximizing over these classes of signature stopping times, in fact, solves the original optimal stopping problem. Using the algebraic properties of the signature, we can then recast the problem as a (deterministic) optimization problem depending only on the (truncated) expected signature $mathbb{E}left[ mathbb{X}^{le N}_{0,T} right]$. By applying a deep neural network approach to approximate the non-linear signature functionals, we can efficiently solve the optimal stopping problem numerically. The only assumption on the process $X$ is that it is a continuous (geometric) random rough path. Hence, the theory encompasses processes such as fractional Brownian motion, which fail to be either semi-martingales or Markov processes, and can be used, in particular, for American-type option pricing in fractional models, e.g. on financial or electricity markets.","PeriodicalId":50979,"journal":{"name":"Annals of Applied Probability","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2021-05-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43101412","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We prove an upper bound with a rate function of the type which has previously been found for kinetic large deviation problems, and a matching lower bound restricted to a class of sufficiently good paths. However, we are able to show by an explicit counterexample that the predicted rate function does not extend to a global lower bound: even though the particle system almost surely conserves energy, large deviation behaviour includes solutions to the Boltzmann equation which do not conserve energy, as found by Lu and Wennberg, and these occur strictly more rarely than predicted by the proposed rate function. At the level of the particle system, this occurs because a macroscopic proportion of energy can concentrate in $mathfrak{o}(N)$ particles with probability $e^{-mathcal{O}(N)}$.","PeriodicalId":50979,"journal":{"name":"Annals of Applied Probability","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2021-03-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47468861","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A persistence diagram is a graphical descriptor of a topological and algebraic structure of geometric objects. We consider Čech filtration over a scaled random sample r−1 n Xn = {r−1 n X1, . . . , r−1 n Xn}, such that rn → 0 as n → ∞. We treat persistence diagrams as a point process and establish their limit theorems in the sparse regime: nr n → 0, n → ∞. In this setting, we show that the asymptotics of the kth persistence diagram depends on the limit value of the sequence nr d(k+1) n . If n r d(k+1) n → ∞, the scaled persistence diagram converges to a deterministic Radon measure almost surely in the vague metric. If rn decays faster so that nr d(k+1) n → c ∈ (0,∞), the persistence diagram weakly converges to a limiting point process without normalization. Finally, if nr d(k+1) n → 0, the sequence of probability distributions of a persistence diagram should be normalized, and the resulting convergence will be treated in terms of the M0-topology.","PeriodicalId":50979,"journal":{"name":"Annals of Applied Probability","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2021-03-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48906408","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The result of each match is random: the probability that a team wins against another team is determined by a function of the strengths of the two teams in the day the match is played. Our model generalizes some previous models studied in the physical and mathematical literature and is defined in terms of different parameters that can be statistically calibrated. We prove a quenched -- conditioning on the initial strengths of the teams -- law of large numbers and a quenched central limit theorem for the number of victories of a team according to its initial strength. To obtain our results, we prove a theorem of independent interest. For a stationary process $xi=(xi_i)_{iin mathbb{N}}$ satisfying a mixing condition and an independent sequence of i.i.d. random variables $(s_i)_{iin mathbb{N}}$, we prove a quenched -- conditioning on $(s_i)_{iinmathbb{N}}$ -- central limit theorem for sums of the form $sum_{i=1}^{n}gleft(xi_i,s_iright)$, where $g$ is a bounded measurable function.

Our results are applicable whenever the constituent functionals $H_s^{(i)}$, $iin{1,...,m}$, are expressible as sums of exponentially stabilizing score functions satisfying a moment condition. The rates are for the $d_2$-, $d_3$-, and $d_{convex}$-distances. When we compare with a centered Gaussian random vector, whose covariance matrix is given by the asymptotic covariances, the rates are in general unimprovable and are governed by the rate of convergence of $s^{-1} {rm Cov}( H_s^{(i)}, H_s^{(j)})$, $i,jin{1,...,m}$, to the limiting covariance, shown to be of order $s^{-1/d}$.
