A new class of long-tailed pausing time densities for the CTRW

We present some asymptotic results for the family of pausing time densities having the asymptotic (t) property(t) [t ln¹⁺(t/T)]^–1. In particular, we show that for this class of pausing time densities the mean-squared displacement r ²(t) is asymptotically proportional to ln(t/T), and the asymptotic distribution of the displacement has a negative exponential form.     

On random walks arising in queueing systems: ergodicity and transience via quadratic forms as lyapounov functions — Part I

A simple and quite general approach is proposed to derive criteria for transience and ergodicity of a certain class of irreducibleN-dimensional Markov chains in ₊ ^N assuming a boundedness condition on the second moment of the jumps. The method consists in constructing convenient smooth supermartingales outside some compact set. The Lyapounov functions introduced belong to the set of quadratic forms in ₊ ^N and do not always have a definite sign. Existence and construction of these forms is shown to be basically equivalent to finding vectors satisfying a system of linear inequalities.Part I is restricted toN=2, in which case a complete characterization is obtained for the type of random walks analyzed by Malyshev and Mensikov, thus relaxing their condition of boundedness of the jumps. The motivation for this work is partly from a large class of queueing systems that give rise to random walks in ₊ ^N      

Solvable isotherms for a two-component system of charged rods on a line

The Coulomb system consisting of an equal number of positive and negative charged rods confined to a one-dimensional lattice is studied. The grand partition function can be calculated exactly at two values of the coupling constant=q ²/k _B T (q denoting the magnitude of the charges). The exact results lead to the conjecture that in the complex scaled fugacity plane, all the zeros of the grand partition function lie on the negative real axis for<2, on the point=–1 for=2, and on the unit circle for>2. In addition, for>4, we conjecture in general and prove at=4 that the zeros pinch the real axis in the thermodynamic limit, with an essential singularity in the pressure at the reduced density 1/2.     

Geometric critical exponent inequalities for general random cluster models

A set of new critical exponent inequalities,d(1 –1 /)2 –, dv(1 – 1/), andd> 1, is proved for a general class of random cluster models, which includes (independent or dependent) percolations, lattice animals (with any interactions), and various stochastic cluster growth models. The inequalities imply that the critical phenomena in the models are inevitably not mean-field-like in the dimensions one, two, and three.The present work was reported at the 56th Statistical Mechanics Meeting (Rutgers, December 1986).

Importance of the choice of assumptions and models in the estimation of analytical quality specifications

The validity of any model depends on its ability to imagine the situation or problem to which it is applied. Further, the assumptions made in relation to the model are determining for the actual outcome. Within the field of clinical biochemistry a lot of models for analytical quality specifications, based on a variety of concepts and ’clinical settings’, have been proposed. A hierarchical structure for application of these approaches and models has been agreed on at several occasions in 1999. In this hierarchy, the highest rank is given to evaluation of analytical quality specifications based on ’clinical settings’/’clinical outcome’ models, followed by specifications based on biological variation and on ’clinicians opinions’. This contribution, deals with the problems of combining random and systematic errors and the implications of application of different models to a variety of clinical settings.

Large cycles in random generalized Johnson graphs

This paper studies thresholds in random generalized Johnson graphs for containing large cycles, i.e. cycles of variable length growing with the size of the graph. Thresholds are obtained for different growth rates.

Spectra of graphs and fractal dimensions II

This paper continues the study of exponentsd(x), d (x), d _R (x) andd (x) for graphG; and the nearest neighbor random walk {X _n } _nN onG, if the starting pointX ₀=x is fixed. These exponents are responsible for the geometric, resistance, diffusion and spectral properties of the graph. The main concern of this paper is the relation of these exponents to the spectral density of the transition matrix. A series of new exponentse, e ,e _R ,e are introduced by allowingx to vary along the vertices. The results suggest that the geometric and resistance properties of the graph are responsible for the diffusion speed on the graph.
