This paper is devoted to studying the weak convergence for a slow-fast system
with jumps modulated by Markovian switching regimes with the martingale method.
However, due to the coexistence of fast component and Markovian switching
regimes,...

Pattern Formation and Solitons
Open classical systems with balanced, separated gain and loss, called
PT-symmetric systems, have been extensively studied over the past decade. Here,
we investigate the properties of a uniform, harmonic chain with spatially
separated viscou...

Timed discrete-event systems (TDES), which is a modelling formalism proposed
by Brandin and Wonham, can be used for modelling scheduling and production
planning problems. This paper aims to show that TDES are essentially
synchronous product...

This paper presents a new array response control scheme named
complex-coefficient weight vector orthogonal decomposition (C2-WORD) and its application to pattern synthesis. The
proposed C2-WORD ...

For any object A in a simplicial model category M, we construct a topological
space \^A which classifies homogeneous functors whose value on k open balls is
equivalent to A. This extends a classification result of Weiss for homogeneous
func...

This is a writeup of lectures on "statistics" that have evolved from the
initial version for the 2009 Hadron Collider Physics Summer School at CERN to
versions for other venues and, most recently, for the African School of
Fundamental Physi...

In this paper, we introduce classically time-controlled quantum automata or
CTQA, which is a reasonable modification of Moore-Crutchfield quantum finite
automata that uses time-dependent evolution and a "scheduler" defining how long
each Ha...

The Bayesian online selection problem aims to design a pricing scheme for a
sequence of arriving buyers that maximizes the expected social welfare (or
revenue) subject to different structural constraints. Inspired by applications

We extend a model of positive feedback and contagion in large mean-field
systems, by introducing a common source of noise driven by Brownian motion.
Although the driving dynamics are continuous, the positive feedback effect can
lead to `blo...
