Product of exponentials and spectral radius of random k-circulants

Arup Bose, Rajat Subhra Hazra, Koushik Saha (2012)

Annales de l'I.H.P. Probabilités et statistiques

Similarity:

We consider × random -circulant matrices with → ∞ and = () whose input sequence { }≥0 is independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) random variables with finite (2 + ) moment. We study the asymptotic distribution of the spectral radius, when = + 1. For this, we first derive the tail behaviour of the fold product of i.i.d. exponential random variables. Then using this tail behaviour result and appropriate normal approximation techniques, we...

Similarity:

The paper deals with a Dirichlet spectral problem for an elliptic operator with -periodic coefficients in a 3D bounded domain of small thickness . We study the asymptotic behavior of the spectrum as and tend to zero. This asymptotic behavior depends crucially on whether and are of the same order ( ≈ ), or is much less than ( = < 1), or is much greater than ...

Discrete sampling of an integrated diffusion process and parameter estimation of the diffusion coefficient

Arnaud Gloter (2010)

ESAIM: Probability and Statistics

Similarity:

Let () be a diffusion on the interval and a sequence of positive numbers tending to zero. We define as the integral between and of . We give an approximation of the law of by means of a Euler scheme expansion for the process (). In some special cases, an approximation by an explicit Gaussian ARMA(1,1) process is obtained. When we deduce from this expansion estimators of the diffusion coefficient of based on (). These estimators are shown to...

Time-homogeneous diffusions with a given marginal at a random time

Alexander M. G. Cox, David Hobson, Jan Obłój (2011)

ESAIM: Probability and Statistics

Similarity:

We solve explicitly the following problem: for a given probability measure , we specify a generalised martingale diffusion () which, stopped at an independent exponential time , is distributed according to . The process ( ) is specified its speed measure . We present two heuristic arguments and three proofs. First we show how the result can be derived from the solution of [Bertoin and Le Jan, 20 (1992) 538–548.] to the Skorokhod embedding problem. Secondly, we give a...

Convolutive decomposition and fast summation methods for discrete-velocity approximations of the Boltzmann equation

Clément Mouhot, Lorenzo Pareschi, Thomas Rey (2013)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

Similarity:

Discrete-velocity approximations represent a popular way for computing the Boltzmann collision operator. The direct numerical evaluation of such methods involve a prohibitive cost, typically ( ) where is the dimension of the velocity space. In this paper, following the ideas introduced in [C. Mouhot and L. Pareschi, 339 (2004) 71–76, C. Mouhot and L. Pareschi, 75 (2006) 1833–1852], we derive fast summation techniques for the evaluation of discrete-velocity schemes which...

An analysis of electrical impedance tomography with applications to Tikhonov regularization

Bangti Jin, Peter Maass (2012)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Similarity:

This paper analyzes the continuum model/complete electrode model in the electrical impedance tomography inverse problem of determining the conductivity parameter from boundary measurements. The continuity and differentiability of the forward operator with respect to the conductivity parameter in -norms are proved. These analytical results are applied to several popular regularization formulations, which incorporate information of smoothness/sparsity on the inhomogeneity...
