An estimation method for the reliability of "consecutive-k-out-of-n system" [PDF]
2010 Mathematics Subject Classification: 60K10, 60K20, 60J10, 60J20, 62G02, 62G05, 68M15, 62N05, 68M15.This paper is concerned with consecutive-k-out-of-n system in which all the components have the same q lifetime probability, so, it's possible to ...

Stationary distributions and mean first passage times of perturbed Markov chains
Stationary distributions of perturbed finite irreducible discrete time Markov chains are intimately connected with the behaviour of associated mean first passage times. This interconnection is explored through the use of generalized matrix inverses. Some

A Perturbation Theory for Ergodic Properties of Markov Chains [PDF]
Perturbations to Markov chains and Markov processes are considered. The unperturbed problem is assumed to be geometrically ergodic in the sense usually established through use of Foster-Lyapunov drift conditions.

Bell’s Jump Process in Discrete Time [PDF]
The jump process introduced by J. S. Bell in 1986, for defining a quantum field theory without observers, presupposes that space is discrete whereas time is continuous. In this letter, our interest is to find an analogous process in discrete time.

A note on bandits with a twist
. A variant of the multi-armed bandit problem was recently introduced by Dimitriu, Tetali and Winkler. For this model (and a mild generalization) we propose faster algorithms to compute the Gittins index.

Practical drift conditions for subgeometric rates of convergence
We present a new drift condition which implies rates of convergence to the stationary distribution of the iterates of a ψ-irreducible aperiodic and positive recurrent transition kernel.

Numerically optimized Markovian coupling and mixing in one-dimensional maps [PDF]
Algorithms are introduced that produce optimal Markovian couplings for large finite-state-space discrete-time Markov chains with sparse transition matrices; these algorithms are applied to some toy models motivated by fluid-dynamical mixing problems at ...
