The first aim of the present note is to quantify the speed of convergence of a conditioned process toward its Q-process under suitable assumptions on the quasi-stationary distribution of the process. Conversely, we prove that, if a…
The standard solution concept for stochastic games is Markov perfect equilibrium (MPE); however, its computation becomes intractable as the number of players increases. Instead, we consider mean field equilibrium (MFE) that has been…
We study the mean field limit of a rank-based model with common noise, which arises as an extension to models for the market capitalization of firms in stochastic portfolio theory. We show that, under certain conditions on the drift and…
This paper focuses on optimizing probabilities of events of interest defined over general controlled discrete-time Markov processes. It is shown that the optimization over a wide class of $\omega$-regular properties can be reduced to the…
We analyze a data-processing system with $n$ clients producing jobs which are processed in \textit{batches} by $m$ parallel servers; the system throughput critically depends on the batch size and a corresponding sub-additive speedup…
The problems arising when the moments of service time distributions, for which the MGinf queue system busy period and busy cycle become very easy to study, are presented and it is shown how to overcome them. The busy cycle renewal function…
We consider a point process $i+\xi_i$, where $i\in \bZ$ and the $\xi_{i}$'s are i.i.d. random variables with variance $\sigma^{2}$. This process, with a suitable rescaling of the distribution of $\xi_i$'s, converges to the Poisson process…
We introduce a fractional generalization of the Erlang Queues $M/E_k/1$. Such process is obtained through a time-change via inverse stable subordinator of the classical queue process. We first exploit the (fractional) Kolmogorov forward…
In this paper we define a class of coverage processes with infinitely divisible finite dimensional distributions and a particular type of correlation structure that can be thought of as generalizations of the classical Ornstein--Uhlenbeck…
Consider a spectrally positive Stable($1+\alpha$) process whose jumps we interpret as lifetimes of individuals. We mark the jumps by continuous excursions assigning "sizes" varying during the lifetime. As for Crump-Mode-Jagers processes…
A $M/M/1$ queue with catastrophes is a modified $M/M/1$ queue model for which, according to the times of a Poisson process, catastrophes occur leaving the system empty. In this work, we study a fractional $M/M/1$ queue with catastrophes,…
We consider queueing models, where customers arrive according to a continuous-time binomial process on a finite interval. In this arrival process, a total of $K$ customers arrive in the finite time interval $[0,T]$, where arrival times of…
In this paper we study the Poisson Hypothesis, which is a device to analyze approximately the behavior of large queueing networks. We prove it in some simple limiting cases. We show in particular that the corresponding dynamical system,…
In this paper we consider an M/G/1-type queue fed by a finite customer-pool. In terms of transforms, we characterize the time-dependent distribution of the number of customers and the workload, as well as the associated waiting times.
This paper considers a BMAP/M/$\infty$ queue with a batch Markovian arrival process (BMAP) and an exponential service time distribution. We first prove that the BMAP/M/$\infty$ queue is stable if and only if the expectation of the logarithm…
We consider a multi-server queue in the Halfin-Whitt regime: as the number of servers $n$ grows without a bound, the utilization approaches 1 from below at the rate $\Theta(1/\sqrt{n})$. Assuming that the service time distribution is…
In this paper, we deal with a class of mean-field backward stochastic differential equations (BSDEs) related to finite state, continuous time Markov chains. We obtain the existence and uniqueness theorem and a comparison theorem for…
We study multiclass many-server queues for which the arrival, service and abandonment rates are all modulated by a common finite-state Markov process. We assume that the system operates in the "averaged" Halfin-Whitt regime, which means…
This paper investigates a conditional mean-field type linear quadratic (LQ) optimal control problem with partial observation and regime switching, where the conditional expectations of the state and control given the history of Markov chain…
We study the $G/\mathit{GI}/\infty$ queue in heavy-traffic using tempered distribution-valued processes which track the age and residual service time of each customer in the system. In both cases, we use the continuous mapping theorem…
