Moment recursion relations have previously been derived for the stationary probability density functions of continuous-time stochastic systems with Wiener (white noise) input. These results are extended in this paper to the case of Poisson (shot noise) input. The non-linear dynamical systems are expressed, in general, as stochastic differential equations, with an independent increment input. The transition probability density function evolves according to the appropriate Kolmogorov equation. Moments of the stationary density are obtained from the Fourier transform of the stationary density. The moment relations can be used to estimate the parameters of linear and non-linear stochastic systems from empirical moments, given either Wiener or Poisson input.

A stochastic averaging method is proposed to predict approximately the response of multi-degree-of-freedom quasi-nonintegrable-Hamiltonian systems (nonintegrable Hamiltonian systems with lightly linear and (or) nonlinear dampings and subject to weakly external and (or) parametric excitations of Gaussian white noises). According to the present method, a one-dimensional approximate Fokker-Planck-Kolmogorov equation for the transition probability density of the Hamiltonian can be constructed and the probability density and statistics of the stationary response of the system can be readily obtained. The method is compared with the equivalent nonlinear system method for stochastically excited and dissipated nonintegrable Hamiltonian systems and extended to a more general class of systems. An example is given to illustrate the application and validity of the present method and the consistency of the present method and the equivalent nonlinear system method.

A stochastic averaging method for predicting the response of multi-degree-of-freedom quasi-nonintegrable-Hamiltonian systems (nonintegrable-Hamiltonian systems with lightly linear and (or) nonlinear dampings subject to weakly external and (or) parametric excitations of Poisson white noises) is proposed. A one-dimensional averaged generalized Fokker–Planck–Kolmogorov equation for the transition probability density of the Hamiltonian is derived and the probability density of the stationary response of the system is obtained by using the perturbation method. Two examples, two linearly and nonlinearly coupled van der Pol oscillators and two-degree-of-freedom vibro-impact system, are given to illustrate the application and validity of the proposed method.

AbstractIn this paper, we show that a non-local operator of certain type extends to the generator of a strong Markov process, admitting the transition probability density. For this transition probability density we construct the intrinsic upper and lower bounds, and prove some smoothness properties. Some examples are provided.

We show that under some assumptions a diffusion process satisfying a one-dimensional Itô's equation has a transition probability density concentrated on a finite spatial interval. We give a formula for this density.

AbstractOver the past decade there has been an increasing focus on the application of the Wright-Fisher diffusion to the inference of natural selection from genetic time series. A key ingredient for modelling the trajectory of gene frequencies through the Wright-Fisher diffusion is its transition probability density function. Recent advances in DNA sequencing techniques have made it possible to monitor genomes in great detail over time, which presents opportunities for investigating natural selection while accounting for genetic recombination and local linkage. However, most existing methods for computing the transition probability density function of the Wright-Fisher diffusion are only applicable to one-locus problems. To address two-locus problems, in this work we propose a novel numerical scheme for the Wright-Fisher stochastic differential equation of population dynamics under natural selection at two linked loci. Our key innovation is that we reformulate the stochastic differential equation in a closed form that is amenable to simulation, which enables us to avoid boundary issues and reduce computational costs. We also propose an adaptive importance sampling approach based on the proposal introduced by Fearnhead (2008) for computing the transition probability density of the Wright-Fisher diffusion between any two observed states. We show through extensive simulation studies that our approach can achieve comparable performance to the method of Fearnhead (2008) but can avoid manually tuning the parameter ρ to deliver superior performance for different observed states.
