Stochastic processes are proposed whose master equations coincide with classical wave, telegraph, and Klein-Gordon equations. Similar to predecessors based on the Goldstein-Kac telegraph process, the model describes the motion of particles with constant speed and transitions between discreet allowed velocity directions. A new ingredient is that transitions into a given velocity state depend on spatial derivatives of other states populations, rather than on populations themselves. This feature requires the sacrifice of the single-particle character of the model, but allows to imitate the Huygens principle and to recover wave equations in arbitrary dimensions.

Many dynamics are random processes with increments given by a quadratic form of a fast Gaussian process. We find that the rate function which describes path large deviations can be computed from the large interval asymptotic of a certain Fredholm determinant. The latter can be evaluated explicitly using Widoms theorem which generalizes the celebrated Szego-Kac formula to the multi-dimensional case. This provides a large class of dynamics with explicit path large deviation functionals. Inspired by problems in hydrodynamics and atmosphere dynamics, we present the simplest example of the emergence of metastability for such a process.
In this paper, stochastic inertial manifold for damped wave equations subjected to additive white noise is constructed by the Lyapunov-Perron method. It is proved that when the intensity of noise tends to zero the stochastic inertial manifold converges to its deterministic counterpart almost surely.
We investigate an averaging process that describes how interacting agents approach consensus through binary interactions. In each elementary step, two agents are selected at random and they reach compromise by adopting their opinion average. We show that the fraction of agents with a monotonically decreasing opinion decays as $e^{-alpha t}$, and that the exponent $alpha=tfrac{1}{2}-tfrac{1+ln ln 2}{4ln 2}$ is selected as the extremum from a continuous spectrum of possible values. The opinion distribution of monotonic agents is asymmetric, and it becomes self-similar at large times. Furthermore, the tails of the opinion distribution are algebraic, and they are characterized by two distinct and nontrivial exponents. We also explore statistical properties of agents with an opinion strictly above average.
We explore the relation between fast waves, damping and imposed noise for different scalings by considering the singularly perturbed stochastic nonlinear wave equations u u_{tt}+u_t=D u+f(u)+ u^alphadot{W} on a bounded spatial domain. An asymptotic approximation to the stochastic wave equation is constructed by a special transformation and splitting of $ u u_{t}$. This splitting gives a clear description of the structure of $u$. The approximating model, for small $ u>0$,, is a stochastic nonlinear heat equation for exponent $0leqalpha<1$,, and is a deterministic nonlinear wave equation for exponent $alpha>1$,.
We investigate the behavior of the return amplitude ${cal F}(t)= |langlePsi(0)|Psi(t)rangle|$ following a quantum quench in a conformal field theory (CFT) on a compact spatial manifold of dimension $d-1$ and linear size $O(L)$, from a state $|Psi(0)rangle$ of extensive energy with short-range correlations. After an initial gaussian decay ${cal F}(t)$ reaches a plateau value related to the density of available states at the initial energy. However for $d=3,4$ this value is attained from below after a single oscillation. For a holographic CFT the plateau persists up to times at least $O(sigma^{1/(d-1)} L)$, where $sigmagg1$ is the dimensionless Stefan-Boltzmann constant. On the other hand for a free field theory on manifolds with high symmetry there are typically revivals at times $tsimmbox{integer}times L$. In particular, on a sphere $S_{d-1}$ of circumference $2pi L$, there is an action of the modular group on ${cal F}(t)$ implying structure near all rational values of $t/L$, similarly to what happens for rational CFTs in $d=2$.
