Some stochastic comparison results for series and parallel systems with heterogeneous Pareto type components

Lakshmi Kanta Patra, Suchandan Kayal, Phalguni Nanda (2018)

Applications of Mathematics

We focus on stochastic comparisons of lifetimes of series and parallel systems consisting of independent and heterogeneous new Pareto type components. Sufficient conditions involving majorization type partial orders are provided to obtain stochastic comparisons in terms of various magnitude and dispersive orderings which include usual stochastic order, hazard rate order, dispersive order and right spread order. The usual stochastic order of lifetimes of series systems with possibly different scale...

Sparse recovery with pre-Gaussian random matrices

Simon Foucart, Ming-Jun Lai (2010)

Studia Mathematica

For an m × N underdetermined system of linear equations with independent pre-Gaussian random coefficients satisfying simple moment conditions, it is proved that the s-sparse solutions of the system can be found by ℓ₁-minimization under the optimal condition m ≥ csln(eN/s). The main ingredient of the proof is a variation of a classical Restricted Isometry Property, where the inner norm becomes the ℓ₁-norm and the outer norm depends on probability distributions.

Spectral approximation for Segal-Bargmann space Toeplitz operators

Albrecht Böttcher, Hartmut Wolf (1997)

Banach Center Publications

Let A stand for a Toeplitz operator with a continuous symbol on the Bergman space of the polydisk N or on the Segal-Bargmann space over N . Even in the case N = 1, the spectrum Λ(A) of A is available only in a few very special situations. One approach to gaining information about this spectrum is based on replacing A by a large “finite section”, that is, by the compression A n of A to the linear span of the monomials z 1 k 1 . . . z N k N : 0 k j n . Unfortunately, in general the spectrum of A n does not mimic the spectrum of A as...
