We study a particular model of a random medium, called the orthant model, in general dimensions $dge 2$. Each site $xin Z^d$ independently has arrows pointing to its positive neighbours $x+e_i$, $i=1,dots, d$ with probability $p$ and otherwise to its negative neighbours $x-e_i$, $i=1,dots, d$ (with probability $1-p$). We prove a shape theorem for the set of sites reachable by following arrows, starting from the origin, when $p$ is large. The argument uses subadditivity, as would be expected from the shape theorems arising in the study of first passage percolation. The main difficulty to overcome is that the primary objects of study are not stationary, which is a key requirement of the subadditive ergodic theorem.

We prove a shape theorem for the set of infected individuals in a spatial epidemic model with 3 states (susceptible-infected-recovered) on ${mathbb Z}^d,dge 3$, when there is no extinction of the infection. For this, we derive percolation estimates (using dynamic renormalization techniques) for a locally dependent random graph in correspondence with the epidemic model.
We study the frog model on Cayley graphs of groups with polynomial growth rate $D geq 3$. The frog model is an interacting particle system in discrete time. We consider that the process begins with a particle at each vertex of the graph and only one of these particles is active when the process begins. Each activated particle performs a simple random walk in discrete time activating the inactive particles in the visited vertices. We prove that the activation time of particles grows at least linearly and we show that in the abelian case with any finite generator set the set of activated sites has a limiting shape.
In this paper we study the moderate deviations for the magnetization of critical Curie-Weiss model. Chen, Fang and Shao considered a similar problem for non-critical model by using Stein method. By direct and simple arguments based on Laplace method, we provide an explicit formula of the error and deduce a Cramer-type result.
We consider a Moran model with two allelic types, mutation and selection. In this work, we study the behaviour of the proportion of fit individuals when the size of the population tends to infinity, without any rescaling of parameters or time. We first prove that the latter converges, uniformly in compacts in probability, to the solution of an ordinary differential equation, which is explicitly solved. Next, we study the stability properties of its equilibrium points. Moreover, we show that the fluctuations of the proportion of fit individuals, after a proper normalization, satisfy a uniform central limit theorem in $[0,infty)$. As a consequence, we deduce the convergence of the corresponding stationary distributions.
Any (measurable) function $K$ from $mathbb{R}^n$ to $mathbb{R}$ defines an operator $mathbf{K}$ acting on random variables $X$ by $mathbf{K}(X)=K(X_1, ldots, X_n)$, where the $X_j$ are independent copies of $X$. The main result of this paper concerns selectors $H$, continuous functions defined in $mathbb{R}^n$ and such that $H(x_1, x_2, ldots, x_n) in {x_1,x_2, ldots, x_n}$. For each such selector $H$ (except for projections onto a single coordinate) there is a unique point $omega_H$ in the interval $(0,1)$ so that for any random variable $X$ the iterates $mathbf{H}^{(N)}$ acting on $X$ converge in distribution as $N to infty$ to the $omega_H$-quantile of $X$.
