Restricted admissibility of batches into an M / G /1 type bulk queue with modified Bernoulli schedule server vacations

Kailash C. Madan, Walid Abu-Dayyeh (2002)

ESAIM: Probability and Statistics

We investigate the steady state behavior of an M / G /1 queue with modified Bernoulli schedule server vacations. Batches of variable size arrive at the system according to a compound Poisson process. However, all arriving batches are not allowed into the system. The restriction policy differs when the server is available in the system and when he is on vacation. We obtain in closed form, the steady state probability generating functions for the number of customers in the queue for various states of...

Restricted Admissibility of Batches into an M/G/1 Type Bulk Queue with Modified Bernoulli Schedule Server Vacations

Reversed Dirichlet environment and directional transience of random walks in Dirichlet environment

Christophe Sabot, Laurent Tournier (2011)

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

We consider random walks in a random environment given by i.i.d. Dirichlet distributions at each vertex of ℤd or, equivalently, oriented edge reinforced random walks on ℤd. The parameters of the distribution are a 2d-uplet of positive real numbers indexed by the unit vectors of ℤd. We prove that, as soon as these weights are nonsymmetric, the random walk is transient in a direction (i.e., it satisfies Xn ⋅ ℓ →n +∞ for some ℓ) with positive probability. In dimension 2, this result is strenghened...

Risk minimization in the model with transaction costs

Michał Motoczyński (2003)

Applicationes Mathematicae

The problem of hedging a contingent claim with minimization of quadratic risk is studied. Existence of an optimal strategy for the model with proportional transaction cost and nondelayed observation is shown.

Scale-free percolation

Maria Deijfen, Remco van der Hofstad, Gerard Hooghiemstra (2013)

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

We formulate and study a model for inhomogeneous long-range percolation on d . Each vertex x d is assigned a non-negative weight W x , where ( W x ) x d are i.i.d. random variables. Conditionally on the weights, and given two parameters α , λ g t ; 0 , the edges are independent and the probability that there is an edge between x and y is given by p x y = 1 - exp { - λ W x W y / | x - y | α } . The parameter λ is the percolation parameter, while α describes the long-range nature of the model. We focus on the degree distribution in the resulting graph, on whether there...

Scaling limit and cube-root fluctuations in SOS surfaces above a wall

Pietro Caputo, Eyal Lubetzky, Fabio Martinelli, Allan Sly, Fabio Lucio Toninelli (2016)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Consider the classical ( 2 + 1 ) -dimensional Solid-On-Solid model above a hard wall on an L × L box of 2 . The model describes a crystal surface by assigning a non-negative integer height η x to each site x in the box and 0 heights to its boundary. The probability of a surface configuration η is proportional to exp ( - β ( η ) ) , where β is the inverse-temperature and ( η ) sums the absolute values of height differences between neighboring sites. We give a full description of the shape of the SOS surface for low enough temperatures....
