We find it absurd that Walliser [1] essentially used the same analysis and obtained identical results as reported in [3], yet arrived at different conclusions. Namely, based on an incomplete theory and using erroneous arguments, he not only…

This is an annotated bibliography on estimation and inference results for queues and related stochastic models. The purpose of this document is to collect and categorise works in the field, allowing for researchers and practitioners to…
There is a gap in Theorem 2.2 of the paper of Du (\cite{D_2010}). In this paper, we shall state the gap and repair it.
The proof of the inequalities for alternating Mathieu type series in Journal of Mathematical Inequalities (2008) by \v{Z}. Tomovski and R. Hilfer contains a mistake. Here we give the values of parameters for which these inequalities are not…
Sood and Grassberger studied in [Phys. Rev. Lett. 99, 098701 (2007)] random walks on random graphs that are biased towards a fixed target point. They put forward a critical bias strength b_c such that a random walker on an infinite graph…
This short note provides a new and simple proof of the convergence rate for Peng's law of large numbers under sublinear expectations, which improves the corresponding results in Song [15] and Fang et al. [3].
Let S_n=X_1+...+X_n be a sum of independent symmetric random variables such that |X_{i}|\leq 1. Denote by W_n=\epsilon_{1}+...+\epsilon_{n} a sum of independent random variables such that \prob{\eps_i = \pm 1} = 1/2. We prove that…

A recent result of Ding, Lee and Peres expresses the cover time of the random walk on a graph in terms of generic chaining for the commute distance. Their proof is very involved and the purpose of this article is to present a simpler…
We studied simple random-walk models with asymmetric time delays. Stochastic simulations were performed for hyperbolic-tangent fitness functions and to obtain analytical results we approximated them by step functions. A novel behavior has…
Rejoinder: Classifier Technology and the Illusion of Progress [math.ST/0606441]
Mathematicians occasionally discover interesting truths even when they are playing with mathematical ideas with no thoughts about possible consequences of their actions. This paper describes two specific instances of this phenomenon. The…
It is shown that a recent article by Z.-D. Zhang [arXiv:0705.1045] is in error and violates well-known theorems.
The errors in the arguments, numerical results, and conclusions in the paper "Test of a modified BCS theory performance in the picket fence model" [Nucl. Phys. A 822 (2009) 1] by V.Yu. Ponomarev and A.I. Vdovin are pointed out. Its…
This paper has been withdrawn by the author because Conjecture 1 is false. Please see arXiv:0901.2093 for a justification that Conjecture 1 is false. The other main results are also available from the above URL.
Feller's book An Introduction to Probability Theory and Its Application discusses statistics corresponding to sequences of coin tosses, with a dollar being won or lost depending on the outcome of each toss. This is equivalent to analyzing…
In this articles we consider very mathematical (if not very plausible) geometric marching. Our marchers will exhibit beautiful mathematics, some familiar and some less so. In a final summary section we discuss the point of all the fancy…
This paper has been withdrawn by the authors, because it has been made obsolete by the detailed expositions in our papers in arXiv:0812.4885 (the mathematics part) and arXiv:0812.4737 (the economics part).
