Scopo della modellizzazione delle stringhe di DNA è la formulazione di modelli matematici che generano sequenze di basi azotate compatibili con il genoma esistente. In questa tesi si prendono in esame quei modelli matematici che conservano un'importante proprietà, scoperta nel 1952 dal biochimico Erwin Chargaff, chiamata oggi "seconda regola di Chargaff". I modelli matematici che tengono conto delle simmetrie di Chargaff si dividono principalmente in due filoni: uno la ritiene un risultato dell'evoluzione sul genoma, mentre l'altro la ipotizza peculiare di un genoma primitivo e non intaccata

This thesis makes two contributions to the solar literature. The first is the development and application of a formal statistical framework for describing short-term (daily) variation in the level of magnetic activity on the Sun. Modelling changes on this time-scale is important because rapid developments of magnetic structures on the sun have important consequences for the space weather experienced on Earth (Committee On The Societal & Economic Impacts Of Severe Space Weather Events, 2008). The second concerns how energetic particles released from the Sun travel through the solar wind. The

A general method of analysis of a variety of stochastic processes in terms of probability density functions (PDFs) is developed and applied to several model as well as physically realistic systems. A model for diffusion in a bistable potential is the first system considered. The time dependence of the PDF for this system is described by a Fokker-Planck equation with non-linear coefficients. A numerical procedure is developed for finding the solution of this class of Fokker-Planck equations. The solution of the Fokker-Planck equation is obtained in terms of an eigenfunction expansion.

We are interested in two probabilistic models of a process interacting with a random environment. Firstly, we consider the model of directed polymers in random environment. In this case, a polymer, represented as the path of a simple random walk on a lattice, interacts with an environment given by a collection of time-dependent random variables associated to the vertices. Under certain conditions, the system undergoes a phase transition from an entropy-dominated regime at high temperatures, to a localised regime at low temperatures. Our main result shows that at high temperatures, even though

Abstract:
Reciprocal processes, whose concept can be traced back to E. Schrödinger, form a class of stochastic processes constructed as mixture of bridges, that satisfy a time Markov field property. We discuss here a new unifying approach to characterize several types of reciprocal processes via duality formulae on path spaces: The case of reciprocal processes with continuous paths associated to Brownian diffusions and the case of pure jump reciprocal processes associated to counting processes are treated. This presentation is based on joint works with M. Thieullen, R. Murr and C. Léonard.

Numerical simulation methods have become an important tool in the study of chemical reaction networks in living cells. Many systems can, with high accuracy, be modeled by deterministic ordinary differential equations, but other systems require a more detailed level of modeling. Stochastic models at either the mesoscopic level or the microscopic level can be used for cases when molecules are present in low copy numbers. In this thesis we develop efficient and flexible algorithms for simulating systems at the microscopic level. We propose an improvement to the Green's function reaction dynamics

This facilitates the creation of a one-sided stable process for which the N-fold statistics can be factorised explicitly.
