Title Harmonic analysis of Gaussian multiplicative chaos on the circle

Abstract Gaussian multiplicative chaos (GMC) on the circle is a canonical (random) multifractal measure on the circle which appears in a wide variety of contexts and most recently in relation to Liouville conformal field theory. In this talk, I will present the first results concerning the decay and renormalization of the Fourier coefficients of GMC. In particular, one can show that GMC is a so-called Rajchman measure which means that its Fourier coefficients go to zero when the frequency goes to infinity. Numerous questions remain open. Based on a joint work with C. Garban.

Abstract In the 70's Itô settled the excursion theory of Markov processes, which is nowadays a fundamental tool for analyzing path properties of Markov processes. In his theory, Itô also introduced a method for building Markov processes using the excursion data, or by gluing excursions together, the resulting process is known as the recurrent extension of a given process. Since Itô's pioneering work the method of recurrent extensions has been added to the toolbox for building processes, which of course includes the martingale problem and stochastic differential equations. The latter are among the most popular tools for building and describing stochastic processes, in particular in applied models as they allow to physically describe the infinitesimal variations of the studied phenomena. In this work we answer the following natural question. Assume X is a Markov process taking values in R that dies at the first time it hits a distinguished point of the state space, say 0, which happens in a finite time a.s., that X satisfies a stochastic differential equation, and finally that X admits a recurrent extension, say Z, is a processes that behaves like Z up to the first hitting time of 0, and for which 0 is a recurrent and regular state. If any, what is the SDE satisfied by Z? Our answer to this question allows us to describe the SDE satisfied by many Feller processes. We analyze various particular examples, as for instance the so-called Feller brownian motions and diffusions, which include their sticky and skewed versions, and also continuous state branching processes and spectrally positive Levy processes.

Abstract We study an epidemiological model where infections arise in a population according to a general, non-Markovian SIR-like model with a time-dependent contact rate. We make few assumptions, only requiring that the number of potential infections generated by an individual has finite expectation on bounded time intervals. This model can be viewed as a general Crump-Mode-Jagers model with interactions, and we study the local weak convergence of its infection graph, which yields (1) a functional law of large numbers for our SIR process, and (2) the identification of a "contact-tracing Markov process" that traces back the chain of infection leading to a typical individual. This is joint work with Félix Foutel-Rodier and Emmanuel Schertzer.
