Under some general continuous and compact conditions, the existence problems of fiked points andd coupled fixed points for increasing operators are studied. an application, we utilize the results obtained to study the existence of solutions for differential inclusions in Banach spaces.     

On galois descent for Hochschild and cyclic homology

LetG be a finite group acting by automorphisms on an algebraS over some commutative ringk. We show that if the action ofG restricted to the center ofS is Galois in the sense of [C-H-R], thenHH _*(S ^G)≊HH _* (S) ^G. An analogous result holds for cyclic homology, provided the order ofG is invertible ink. The author was supported in part by a grant from the NSF.     

Filtering on manifolds

We coasider a partially observable diffusion process (x _t,y_t)t0 whose unobservable componentx _t lives on a submanifold M ofR ⁿ . We present some general conditions under which the conditional law ofx _t, given the observationsy _s ,s [0,t], admits a density w.r.t. a given measure on M. We characterize the analytical properties of this density by using appropriate Sobolev spaces.Research supported by the Hungarian National Foundation of Scientific Research No. 2290.     

Predictable projections for point process filtrations

Summary We consider a point process with the Polish phase space (X,X) and a system of -fields (x),xX, generated by on certain sets (x)X. We define predictability for random processes indexed byX and for random measures onX and prove the existence and uniqueness of predictable and dual predictable projections under a regularity condition on . ForX= ₂ ⁺ and under monotonicity assumptions on the sets x we will identify the predictable projections of some simple processes as regular versions of certain martingales.

Metric marginal problems for set-valued or non-measurable variables

Summary In a separable metric space, if two Borel probability measures (laws) are nearby in a suitable metric, then there exist random variables with those laws which are nearby in probability. Specifically, by a well-known theorem of Strassen, the Prohorov distance between two laws is the infimum of Ky Fan distances of random variables with those laws. The present paper considers possible extensions of Strassen's theorem to two random elements one of which may be (compact) set-valued and/or non-measurable. There are positive results in finite-dimensional spaces, but with factors depending on the dimension. Examples show that such factors cannot entirely be avoided, so that the extension of Strassen's theorem to the present situation fails in infinite dimensions.This research was partially supported by a Guggenheim Fellowship, by National Science Foundation grant DMS 8505550 at MSRI-Berkeley, and other NSF grants     

Regenerative simulation of TES processes

Regenerative simulation has become a familiar and established tool for simulation-based estimation. However, many applications (e.g., traffic in high-speed communications networks) call for autocorrelated stochastic models to which traditional regenerative theory is not directly applicable. Consequently, extensions of regenerative simulation to dependent time series is increasingly gaining in theoretical and practical interest, with Markov chains constituting an important case. Fortunately, a regenerative structure can be identified in Harris-recurrent Markov chains with minor modification, and this structure can be exploited for standard regenerative estimation. In this paper we focus on a versatile class of Harris-recurrent Markov chains, called TES (Transform-Expand-Sample). TES processes can generate a variety of sample paths with arbitrary marginal distributions, and autocorrelation functions with a variety of functional forms (monotone, oscillating and alternating). A practical advantage of TES processes is that they can simultaneously capture the first and second order statistics of empirical sample paths (raw field measurements). Specifically, the TES modeling methodology can simultaneously match the empirical marginal distribution (histogram), as well as approximate the empirical autocorrelation function. We explicitly identify regenerative structures in TES processes and proceed to address efficiency and accuracy issues of prospective simulations. To show the efficacy of our approach, we report on a TES/M/1 case study. In this study, we used the likelihood ratio method to calculate the mean waiting time performance as a function of the regenerative structure and the intrinsic TES parameter controlling burstiness (degree of autocorrelation) in the arrival process. The score function method was used to estimate the corresponding sensitivity (gradient) with respect to the service rate. Finally, we demonstrated the importance of the particular regenerative structure selected in regard to the estimation efficiency and accuracy induced by the regeneration cycle length.

Optimal impulse control problems for degenerate diffusions with jumps

Optimal stopping and impulse control problems for degenerate diffusion with jumps are studied in this paper. Lipschitzian coefficients for the diffusion process, data with polynomial growth, and evolution in the whole space are the main assumptions on the models. Several characterizations of the optimal cost functions are given. Existence of optimal policies is obtained.This research has been supported in part by Army Research Office Contract DAAG29-83-K-0014 and by National Science Foundation Grant DMS-8601998.
