The dynamics of linear stochastic growth equations on growing substrates is studied. The substrate is assumed to grow in time following the power law $t^\gamma$, where the growth index $\gamma$ is an arbitrary positive number. Two different…
In this note we discuss (Gaussian) intrinsic conditional autoregressive (CAR) models for disconnected graphs, with the aim of providing practical guidelines for how these models should be defined, scaled and implemented. We show how these…
An analytical approach to convolution of functions, which appear in perturbative calculations, is discussed. An extended list of integrals is presented.
We analyze mathematical models of the global human population growth and compare them to actual dynamics of the world population and of the world surplus product. We consider a possibility that the so-called world's demographic transition…
Bayesian networks can be used to extract explanations about the observed state of a subset of variables. In this paper, we explicate the desiderata of an explanation and confront them with the concept of explanation proposed by existing…
We discuss recent results on decay of correlations for non-uniformly expanding maps. Throughout the discussion, we address the question of why different dynamical systems have different rates of decay of correlations and how this may…
We introduce a variant of transition systems, where activation of transitions depends on conditions of the environment and upgrades during runtime potentially create additional transitions. Using a cornerstone result in lattice theory, we…

We obtain closed form expressions for the expected conditional degree distribution and the joint degree distribution of the linear preferential attachment model for network growth in the steady state. We consider the multiple-destination…
A stochastic dynamical system represented through a linear vector equation in idempotent algebra is considered. We propose simple bounds on the mean growth rate of the system state vector, and give an analysis of absolute error of a bound.…
Regular and singular parts of asymptotic expansions of semi-Markov random evolutions are given. Regularity of boundary conditions is shown. An algorithm for calculation of initial conditions is proposed.
This article is concerned with the existence and uniqueness of solutions to some fractional order boundary value problems. Our results are based on some fixed point theorems. For the applicability of our results, we provide an example.
The contextuality problem connected with existence of joint probability distribution creating all the given marginals is studied. It is shown for several examples considered previously in literature that there exist some new solutions for…
New cases of the multiplicity conjecture are considered.
In this paper, we establish the growth tightness of the quotient by confined subgroups in groups admitting the statistically convex-cocompact action with contracting elements. The result is sharp in the sense that the actions could not be…
We investigate the conjugate indicator diagram or, equivalently, the indicator function of (frequently) hypercyclic functions of exponential type for differential operators. This gives insights into growth conditions of these functions on…
The constraints on the models for the structure formation arising from various cosmological observations at different length scales are reviewed. The status of different models for structure formation is examined critically in the light of…
Population structure affects the outcome of natural selection. Static population structures can be described by graphs, where individuals occupy the nodes, and interactions occur along the edges. General conditions for evolutionary success…
