For AR(1)-processes $X_n=\rho X_{n-1}+\xi_n$, $n\in\mathbb{N}$, where $\rho\in\mathbb{R}$ and $(\xi_i)_{i\in\mathbb{N}}$ is an i.i.d. sequence of random variables, we study the persistence probabilities $\mathbb{P}(X_0\ge 0,\dots, X_N\ge 0)$ for $N\to\infty$. For a wide class of Markov processes a recent result [Aurzada, Mukherjee, Zeitouni; arXiv:1703.06447; 2017] shows that these probabilities decrease exponentially fast and that the rate of decay can be identified as an eigenvalue of some…

Persistence versus stability for auto-regressive processes
• Mathematics
• 2019
The stability of an Auto-Regressive (AR) time sequence of finite order $L$, is determined by the maximal modulus $r^\star$ among all zeros of its generating polynomial. If $r^\star 1$ it is
Persistence of autoregressive sequences with logarithmic tails
• Mathematics

We consider autoregressive sequences Xn = aXn−1 + ξn and Mn = max{aMn−1, ξn} with a constant a ∈ (0, 1) and with positive, independent and identically distributed innovations {ξk}. It is known that
Persistence for a class of order-one autoregressive processes and Mallows-Riordan polynomials
• Mathematics

We establish exact formulae for the persistence probabilities of an AR(1) sequence with symmetric uniform innovations in terms of certain families of polynomials, most notably a family introduced by

For a class of one-dimensional autoregressive sequences $$(X_n)$$ ( X n ) , we consider the tail behaviour of the stopping time $$T_0=\min \lbrace n\ge 1: X_n\le 0 \rbrace$$ T 0 = min { n ≥ 1 : X n

For a>1, corresponding to motion in an unstable potential, there is a nonzero probability of having no zero-crossings in infinite time, and it is shown how to calculate it.
Survival probabilities of autoregressive processes
Given an autoregressive process X of order p (i.e. X n  = a 1 X n −1  + ··· + a p X n −p  + Y n where the random variables Y 1 , Y 2 ,... are i.i.d.), we study the asymptotic behaviour of the
