摘要:This paper shows the existence of independent random matching of a large (continuum) population in both static and dynamic systems, which has been popular in the economics and genetics literatures. We construct a joint agent-probability space, and randomized mutation, partial matching and match-induced type-changing functions that satisfy appropriate independence conditions. The proofs are achieved via nonstandard analysis. The proof for the dynamic setting relies on a new Fubini-type theorem ...

摘要:We consider the random walk on a simple point process on R-d, d >= 2, whose jump rates decay exponentially in the alpha-power of jump length. The case alpha = 1 corresponds to the phonon-induced variable-range hopping in disordered solids in the regime of strong Anderson localization. Under mild assumptions on the point process, we show, for a epsilon (0, d), that the random walk confined to a cubic box of side L has a.s. Cheeger constant of order at least L-1 and mixing time of order L-2. For...

摘要:Kingman derived the Ewens sampling formula for random partitions describing the genetic variation in a neutral mutation model defined by a Poisson process of mutations along lines of descent governed by a simple coalescent process and observed that similar methods could be applied to more complex models. Mohle described the recursion which determines the generalization of the Ewens sampling formula in the situation where the lines of descent are governed by a Lambda-coalescent, which allows mu...

摘要:The model considered is that of signal plus white noise. Known connections between the noncausal filtering error and mutual information are combined with new ones involving the causal estimation error, in a general abstract setup. The results are shown to be invariant under a wide class of causality patterns; they are applied to the derivation of the causal estimation error of a Gaussian nonstationary filtering problem and to a multidimensional extension of the Yovits-Jackson formula.

摘要:We investigate the robustness of nonlinear filtering for continuous time finite state Markov chains, observed in white noise, with respect to misspecification of the model parameters. It is shown that the distance between the optimal filter and that with incorrect model parameters converges to zero uniformly over the infinite time interval as the misspecified model converges to the true model, provided the signal obeys a mixing condition. The filtering error is controlled through the exponenti...

摘要:For a class of stationary Markov-dependent sequences (A(n), B-n) is an element of R-2, we consider the random linear recursion S-n = A(n) + BnSn-1, n is an element of Z, and show that the distribution tail of its stationary solution has a power law decay.

摘要:We propose a general method to study dependent data in a binary tree, where an individual in one generation gives rise to two different offspring, one of type 0 and one of type 1, in the next generation. For any specific characteristic of these individuals, we assume that the characteristic is stochastic and depends on its ancestors' only through the mother's characteristic. The dependency structure may be described by a transition probability P (x, dy dz) which gives the probability that the ...

摘要:We consider a general model of a heterogeneous polymer chain fluctuating in the proximity of an interface between two selective solvents. The heterogeneous character of the model comes from the fact that the monomer units interact with the solvents and with the interface according to some charges that they carry. The charges repeat themselves along the chain in a periodic fashion. The main question concerning this model is whether the polymer remains tightly close to the interface, a phenomeno...

摘要:Consider an N x n random matrix Y-n = (Y-ij(n)) where the entries are given by Y-ij(n) = sigma(ij)(n)/root n X-ij(n) the X-ij(n) being independent and identically distributed centered with unit variance and satisfying some mild moment assumption. Consider now a deterministic N x n matrix A(n) whose columns and rows are uniformly bounded in the Euclidean norm. Let Sigma(n) = Y-n + A(n). We prove in this article that there exists a deterministic N x N matrix-valued function T-n(z) analytic in C ...

摘要:This paper deals with a model of sympatric speciation, that is, speciation in the absence of geographical separation, originally proposed by U. Dieckmarm and M. Doebeli in 1999. We modify their original model to obtain a Fleming-Viot type model and study its stationary distribution. We show that speciation may occur, that is, the stationary distribution puts most of the mass on a configuration that does not concentrate on the phenotype with maximum carrying capacity, if competition between phe...
