Ergodic theory and hydrodynamic limit for run-and-tumble particle processes

In this thesis we will study the ergodic measures and the hydrodynamic limit of independent run-and-tumble particle processes, i.e., an interacting particle system for particles with an internal energy source, which makes them move in a preferred direction that changes at random times. We start by providing some basic concepts and theory of...

On different characterizations of a normal distribution

The normal distribution is a very important distribution in probability theory and statisticsand has a lot of unique properties and characterizations. In this report we look at the proof of two of these characterizations and create counterparts of a normal distribution on abstract spaces, such as vector spaces and groups, which we shall call...
