A new class of one-dimensional, discrete time random walk model with memory, termed "Random walk with $n$ memory channels" (RW$n$MC) is proposed. In this model the information of $n$ ($n\in \mathbb{Z}$) previous steps from the walker's…
We present in this article the work of Henri B\'enard (1874-1939), French physicist who began the systematic experimental study of two hydrodynamic systems: the thermal convection of fluids heated from below (the Rayleigh-B\'enard…
Jean-Raymond Abrial is one of the central figures in the development of formal methods for software and systems engineering. Over a career spanning more than five decades, he has played a decisive role in the creation of the Z specification…
Within the framework of relativistic cosmology oscillating or cyclic models of the universe were introduced by A. Friedmann in his seminal paper of 1922. With the recognition of evolutionary cosmology in the 1930s this class of closed…
Type III methods, introduced by SAS in 1976, formulate estimable functions that substitute, somehow, for classical ANOVA effects in multiple linear regression models. They have been controversial since, provoking wide use and satisfied…

The objective of this paper is not simply to present an historical overview of Einstein's cosmological considerations, but to discuss the central role they played in shaping the paradigm of relativistic cosmology. This, we'll show, was a…
Navigation is one of the most heavily studied problems in robotics, and is conventionally approached as a geometric mapping and planning problem. However, real-world navigation presents a complex set of physical challenges that defies…
We introduce a version of RSK that captures the dynamics of periodic TASEP. This work is building towards a cylindrical analogue of (AB Dieker, J Warren, 2008).
This short note is devoted to motivate and clarify the notion of sequential walk introduced by the authors in a previous work. We also give some applications of this concept.
Min et al. (2009) presented two complementary techniques that use the diffusion approximation to allow efficient Monte-Carlo radiation transfer in very optically thick regions: a modified random walk and a partial diffusion approximation.…
I review the revolutionary impact Rodney Baxter has had on statistical mechanics beginning with his solution of the 8 vertex model in 1971 and the invention of corner transfer matrices in 1976 to the creation of the RSOS models in 1984 and…
The foundational work of Karlin and McGregor established a powerful connection between random walks with tridiagonal transition matrices and the theory of orthogonal polynomials. We consider a particular extension of this framework, where…
The true self-repelling motion is a continuous-time random process which was introduced by T\'oth and Werner in 1998 to be a limit for the "true" self-avoiding random walk defined by T\'oth in 1995. The construction of the true…
Random walks in random environments (RWRE's) have been a source of surprising phenomena and challenging problems since they began to be studied in the 70's. Hitting times and, more recently, certain regeneration structures, have played a…
The theory of differentiation of measures originates from works of Besicovitch in the 1940's. His pioneering works, as well as subsequent developments of the theory, rely as fundamental tools on suitable covering properties. The first aim…
The extended cyclic reduction algorithm developed by Swarztrauber in 1974 was used to solve the block-tridiagonal linear system. The paper fills in the gap of theoretical results concerning the zeros of matrix polynomial $B_{i}^{(r)}$ with…
Throughout its history, Operational Research has evolved to include a variety of methods, models and algorithms that have been applied to a diverse and wide range of contexts. This encyclopedic article consists of two main sections: methods…
This paper studies Brownian motion subject to the occurrence of a minimal length excursion below a given excursion level. The law of this process is determined. The characterization is explicit and shows by a layer construction how the law…
The problem of identifying models of post-disaster reconstruction is an issue that has been dealt with in depth in a number of works, mostly dedicated to individual cases or to the comparison of models. There are also a number of works that…
