We analyze a stochastic neuronal network model which corresponds to an all-to-all network of discretized integrate-and-fire neurons where the synapses are failure-prone. This network exhibits different phases of behavior corresponding to synchrony and asynchrony, and we show that this is due to the limiting mean-field system possessing multiple attractors. We also show that this mean-field limit exhibits a first-order phase transition as a function...
Let E be a real, separable Banach space and denote by the space of all E-valued random vectors defined on the probability space Ω. The following result is proved. There exists an extension of Ω, and a filtration on , such that for every there is an E-valued, continuous -martingale in which X is embedded in the sense that a.s. for an a.s. finite stopping time τ. For E = ℝ this gives a Skorokhod embedding for all , and for general E this leads to a representation of random vectors as...
“Classical” optimization problems depending on a probability measure belong mostly to nonlinear deterministic optimization problems that are, from the numerical point of view, relatively complicated. On the other hand, these problems fulfil very often assumptions giving a possibility to replace the “underlying” probability measure by an empirical one to obtain “good” empirical estimates of the optimal value and the optimal solution. Convergence rate of these estimates have been studied mostly for...
