The Northeast Model is a spin system on the two-dimensional integer lattice that evolves according to the following rule: Whenever a sites southerly and westerly nearest neighbors have spin $1$, it may reset its own spin by tossing a $p$-coin; at all other times, its spin remains frozen. It is proved that the northeast model has a phase transition at $p_{c}=1-beta_{c}$, where $beta_{c}$ is the critical parameter for oriented percolation. For $p<p_{c}$, the trivial measure $delta_{0}$ that puts mass one on the configuration with all spins set at $0$ is the unique ergodic, translation invariant, stationary measure. For $pgeq p_{c}$, the product Bernoulli-$p$ measure on configuration space is the unique nontrivial, ergodic, translation invariant, stationary measure for the system, and it is mixing. For $p>2/3$ it is shown that there is exponential decay of correlations.

Recently, a number of authors have investigated the conditions under which a stochastic perturbation acting on an infinite dimensional dynamical system, e.g. a partial differential equation, makes the system ergodic and mixing. In particular, one is interested in finding minimal and physically natural conditions on the nature of the stochastic perturbation. I shall review recent results on this question; in particular, I shall discuss the Navier-Stokes equation on a two dimensional torus with a random force which is white noise in time, and excites only a finite number of modes. The number of excited modes depends on the viscosity $ u$, and grows like $ u^{-3}$ when $ u$ goes to zero. This Markov process has a unique invariant measure and is exponentially mixing in time.

We consider two approaches to study the spread of infectious diseases within a spatially structured population distributed in social clusters. According whether we consider only the population of infected individuals or both populations of infected individuals and healthy ones, two models are given to study an epidemic phenomenon. Our first approach is at a microscopic level, its goal is to determine if an epidemic may occur for those models. The second one is the derivation of hydrodynamics limits. By using the relative entropy method we prove that the empirical measures of infected and healthy individuals converge to a deterministic measure absolutely continuous with respect to the Lebesgue measure, whose density is the solution of a system of reaction-diffusion equations.
Various mixing properties of $beta$-, $beta$- and Gaussian Delaunay tessellations in $mathbb{R}^{d-1}$ are studied. It is shown that these tessellation models are absolutely regular, or $beta$-mixing. In the $beta$- and the Gaussian case exponential bounds for the absolute regularity coefficients are found. In the $beta$-case these coefficients show a polynomial decay only. In the background are new and strong concentration bounds on the radius of stabilization of the underlying construction. Using a general device for absolutely regular stationary random tessellations, central limit theorems for a number of geometric parameters of $beta$- and Gaussian Delaunay tessellations are established. This includes the number of $k$-dimensional faces and the $k$-volume of the $k$-sk
Let ${u(t,, x)}_{t >0, x inmathbb{R}}$ denote the solution to the parabolic Anderson model with initial condition $delta_0$ and driven by space-time white noise on $mathbb{R}_+timesmathbb{R}$, and let $bm{p}_t(x):= (2pi t)^{-1/2}exp{-x^2/(2t)}$ denote the standard Gaussian heat kernel on the line. We use a non-trivial adaptation of the methods in our companion papers cite{CKNP,CKNP_b} in order to prove that the random field $xmapsto u(t,,x)/bm{p}_t(x)$ is ergodic for every $t >0$. And we establish an associated quantitative central limit theorem following the approach based on the Malliavin-Stein method introduced in Huang, Nualart, and Viitasaari cite{HNV2018}.
We prove that the distribution of eigenvectors of generalized Wigner matrices is universal both in the bulk and at the edge. This includes a probabilistic version of local quantum unique ergodicity and asymptotic normality of the eigenvector entries. The proof relies on analyzing the eigenvector flow under the Dyson Brownian motion. The key new ideas are: (1) the introduction of the eigenvector moment flow, a multi-particle random walk in a random environment, (2) an effective estimate on the regularity of this flow based on maximum principle and (3) optimal finite speed of propagation holds for the eigenvector moment flow with very high probability.
