Our results are based on the existence theorem from Delong & Imkeller, Ann. Appl. Probab., 2010, concerning backward stochastic differential equations with time delayed generators.

First, an existence-uniqueness result for the solution of general SDEsGp based on Poisson processes with τperiodic stochastic intensity of time t has been given, for some τ > 0. Then, using the properties of periodic Markov processes, sufficient conditions for the existence and uniqueness of a periodic solution of the considered equations are obtained. We will then apply the obtained results to the propagation of malaria in a periodic environment.

Contrary to the Brownian case, the time inversion argument doesn't seem to work. Here, the main tool in the proof is large deviations estimates for diffusion processes with small diffusion coefficients.

This process is an extension to higher dimensions of L&y's stochastic area which is obtained from V,, by setting n = 2. For V,, a Strassen-type functional law of the iterated logarithm is proved by making use of large deviations techniques.

In this setting, we deal with both constant and random terminal times. In the random case, the terminal time is allowed to take infinite values. But in a Markovian framework, that is coupled with a forward SDE, our result provides a probabilistic interpretation of solutions to nonlinear PDEs.

This paper studies the distribution function of the time of extinction of a subcritical epidemic,... more This paper studies the distribution function of the time of extinction of a subcritical epidemic, when a large enough proportion of the population has been immunized and/or the infectivity of the infectious individuals has been reduced, so that the effective reproduction number is less than one. We do that for a SIR/SEIR model, where infectious individuals have an infection age dependent infectivity, as in the model introduced in the 1927 seminal paper of Kermack and McKendrick [9]. Our main conclusion is that simplifying the model as an ODE SIR model, as it is largely done in the epidemics literature, introduces a biais toward shorter extinction time.

We define a parameter ℜ * from which a study of stability is made. In the deterministic case, we discuss the existence of an endemic equilibria and prove the global stability of the disease-free equilibrium. By introducing a perturbation in the contact rate through a white noise, we consider a stochastic version. We prove the existence of a global positive solution which lives in a certain domain. Thereafter, we prove the global stability nth moment of the system as soon as the intensity of the white noise is below a certain threshold. Finally, we perform some numerical simulations to compare the dynamic behaviors of the deterministic system and the stochastic system.

When the terminal value is bounded, we prove the existence of a solution by using a suitable approximation of the drift by a double sequence of lipschitz functions. The uniqueness is obtained

Each target site includes different accident types and is linked to a specific control area. At any one target site it is assumed that the total number of accidents recorded is multinomially distributed between the before period and the after period and also between several mutually exclusive types. The parameter of the distribution depends on the different accident risks in the control area linked to each site as well as on the average effect of the change. A method of estimating simultaneously the average effect and the accident risks in control areas is suggested. Some simulated accidents data allow us to study the existence and consistence of the linear constrained estimator of the unknown vector parameter.

We deal with the case of xed terminal and also the random terminal case. The study use some new technical aspects of the stochastic calculus related to the reected Generalized BSDE, (see [5] for the case of BSDE) to derive a priori estimates and prove existence and uniqueness of solution in L p , p > 1. The result extended the one of Aman et al [1]. The need for this type of extension comes from the desire to prove a probabilistic representation of L p − solution of semi-linear partial dierential equation with nonlinear Neumann boundary condition when p ∈ (1, 2).

Under local Lipschitz continuity condition on the drift, we prove existence and uniqueness result. We also established a stability property for this kind of equations.
