Abstract

Exponential stochastic compression is the process when every second cell of an infinite chain may increase its weight merging randomly with left, right, or both neighboring cells. The total mass conservation is assumed. After that, merged cells fill the empty space, compressing the chain twice. They may fill empty spaces in two different ways: (I) using shifts only, i.e. preserving the order; (II) using shifts and random permutations. Compressing the initial homogeneous chain with cell weights 11 many times, we compute final densities ρi\rho_i of cells with weight i=1,2,3,...i=1,2,3,.... The main result is that ρi/ρ1=i\rho_i/\rho_1=i in the ordered case (I), and ρi/ρ11.464910...(i1/4)\rho_i/\rho_1\approx1.464910...(i-1/4) in the disordered case (II). The multiplier in the disordered case has a fractal nature. The compression of initially inhomogeneous chains and rescaled continuous densities are also discussed.

Comments

In fact, this is a January-February update. The old results of versions 1 and 2 remained unchanged, it is best to start acquaintance with the topic from them. The new version 3 contains: 1) "donation pyramid model"; 2) explicit formula for the periodic term in the main asymptotic, see Theorem 1.4; 3) some integrals of special functions give 1.464910
