The persistence of a stochastic variable is the probability that it does not cross a given level during a fixed time interval. Although persistence is a simple concept to understand, it is in general hard to calculate. Here we consider zero mean Gaussian stationary processes in discrete time $n$. Few results are known for the persistence $P_0(n)$ in discrete time, except the large time behavior which is characterized by the nontrivial constant $theta$ through $P_0(n)sim theta^n$. Using a modified version of the Independent Interval Approximation (IIA) that we developed before, we are able to calculate $P_0(n)$ analytically in $z$-transform space in terms of the autocorrelation function $A(n)$. If $A(n)to0$ as $ntoinfty$, we extract $theta$ numerically, while if $A(n)=0$, for finite $n>N$, we find $theta$ exactly (within the IIA). We apply our results to three special cases: the nearest neighbor-correlated first order moving average process where $A(n)=0$ for $ n>1$, the double exponential-correlated second order autoregressive process where $A(n)=c_1lambda_1^n+c_2lambda_2^n$, and power law-correlated variables where $A(n)sim n^{-mu}$. Apart from the power-law case when $mu<5$, we find excellent agreement with simulations.
The persistence exponent theta for the global order parameter, M(t), of a system quenched from the disordered phase to its critical point describes the probability, p(t) sim t^{-theta}, that M(t) does not change sign in the time interval t following
In this paper we give explicit examples of power-law correlated stationary Markovian processes y(t) where the stationary pdf shows tails which are gaussian or exponential. These processes are obtained by simply performing a coordinate transformation
In this study, we analytically formulated the path integral representation of the conditional probabilities for non-Markovian kinetic processes in terms of the free energy of the thermodynamic system. We carry out analytically the time-fractional kin
Employing the optimal fluctuation method (OFM), we study the large deviation function of long-time averages $(1/T)int_{-T/2}^{T/2} x^n(t) dt$, $n=1,2, dots$, of centered stationary Gaussian processes. These processes are correlated and, in general, n
Efficient simulations of the dynamics of open systems is of wide importance for quantum science and tech-nology. Here, we introduce a generalization of the transfer-tensor, or discrete-time memory kernel, formalism to multi-time measurement scenarios
