On a new Wiener-Hopf factorization by Alili and Doney
A non-Markovian queueing system with Poisson input is studied under a modified operating rule called “control operating policy” in which the server begins “start-up” only when the queue length reaches a fixed number . By using the supplementary variable technique, the distribution of the queue length (excluding those being served) in the form of a generating function is obtained. As a special case, a Markovian queueing system with exponential start-up is discussed in detail to analyse the economic...
This paper considers Schrödinger operators, and presents a probabilistic interpretation of the variation (or shape derivative) of the Dirichlet groundstate energy when the associated domain is perturbed. This interpretation relies on the distribution on the boundary of a stopped random process with Feynman-Kac weights. Practical computations require in addition the explicit approximation of the normal derivative of the groundstate on the boundary. We then propose to use this formulation in the...
We give a representation of the class of all -dimensional copulas such that, for a fixed , , all their -dimensional margins are equal to the independence copula. Such an investigation originated from an open problem posed by Schweizer and Sklar.
Let Ω be a nonatomic probability space, let X be a Banach function space over Ω, and let ℳ be the collection of all martingales on Ω. For , let Mf and Sf denote the maximal function and the square function of f, respectively. We give some necessary and sufficient conditions for X to have the property that if f, g ∈ ℳ and , then , where C is a constant independent of f and g.
