Field theory of survival probabilities, extreme values, first-passage times, and mean span of non-Markovian stochastic processes

We provide a perturbative framework to calculate extreme events of non-Markovian processes, by mapping the stochastic process to a two-species reaction-diffusion process in a Doi-Peliti field theory combined with the Martin-Siggia-Rose formalism. This field theory treats interactions and the effect...
