New criteria are shown that certain combinations of finite unimodal polynomials are unimodal. %Given unimodal polynomials with explicit expressions and dependent recursion relations, we propose an approach to determine their modes. As…
We derive stationary measures for certain zero-temperature random polymer models, which we believe are new in the case of the zero-temperature limit of the beta random polymer (that has been called the river delta model). To do this, we…
We study the unfolding of a single polymer chain due to an external force. We use a simplified model which allows to perform all calculations in closed form without assuming a Boltzmann-Gibbs form for the equilibrium distribution.…
The quantum form of the Poincar\'e recurrence theorem stipulates that a system with a time-independent Hamiltonian and discrete energy levels returns arbitrarily close to its initial state in a finite time. Qubit systems, being highly…
We give rates of convergence in the strong invariance principle for stationary sequences satisfying some projective criteria. The conditions are expressed in terms of conditional expectations of partial sums of the initial sequence. Our…
We analyze a reaction-diffusion system describing the growth of microbial species in a model of flocculation type that arises in biology. Existence of global classical positive solutions is proved under general growth assumptions, with…
Robust Bayesian linear regression is a classical but essential statistical tool. Although novel robustness properties of posterior distributions have been proved recently under a certain class of error distributions, their sufficient…
In sustained growth with random dynamics stationary distributions can exist without detailed balance. This suggests thermodynamical behavior in fast growing complex systems. In order to model such phenomena we apply both a discrete and a…
Some Kharitonov-like robust Hurwitz stability criteria are established for a class of complex polynomial families with nonlinearly correlated perturbations. These results are extended to the polynomial matrix case and non-interval…
The existence of stationary distributions in a multicomponent Boltzmann equation using a non-additive kinetic energy composition rule for binary collisions is discussed. It is found that detailed balance is not achieved when -- in contrast…
We prove a few existence results of a solution for a static system with a coupling of thermoviscoelastic type. As this system involves $L^1$ coupling terms we use the techniques of renormalized solutions for elliptic equations with $L^1$…
The hypothesis of randomness is fundamental in statistical machine learning and in many areas of nonparametric statistics; it says that the observations are assumed to be independent and coming from the same unknown probability…
In a general class of one dimensional random differential equation the convergence of the distribution function of the solution to stationary state distribution is studied. In particular it is proved the boundedness respectively the…
Given a first-order sentence, a model-checking computation tests whether the sentence holds true in a given finite structure. Data provenance extracts from this computation an abstraction of the manner in which its result depends on the…
A semicoherent system can be described by its structure function or, equivalently, by a lattice polynomial function expressing the system lifetime in terms of the component lifetimes. In this paper we point out the parallelism between the…
The issues of robust stability for two types of uncertain fractional-order systems of order $\alpha \in (0,1)$ are dealt with in this paper. For the polytope-type uncertainty case, a less conservative sufficient condition of robust…
This paper considers the joint distribution of elements of a random sample and an order statistic of the same sample. \ The motivation for this work stems from the important problem in reliability analysis, to estimate the number of…
Reaction diffusion systems with Turing instability and mass conservation are studied. In such systems, abrupt decays of stripes follow quasi-stationary states in sequence. At steady state, the distance between stripes is much longer than…
The use of available disturbance predictions within a nominal model predictive control formulation is studied. The main challenge that arises is the loss of recursive feasibility and stability guarantees when a persistent disturbance is…
In this paper, we prove several theorems on systems of polynomials with at least one positive real zero based on the theory of conceive polynomials. These theorems provide sufficient conditions for systems of multivariate polynomials…
