Efficient qualitative analysis of classes of recursive markov decision processes and simple stochastic games [PDF]
, 2006 . Recursive Markov Decision Processes (RMDPs) and Recursive Simple Stochastic Games (RSSGs) are natural models for recursive systems involving both probabilistic and non-probabilistic actions.

On expected durations of birth–death processes, with applications to branching processes and SIS epidemics [PDF]
Journal of Applied Probability, 2016 Abstract We study continuous-time birth–death type processes, where individuals have independent and identically distributed lifetimes, according to a random variable Q, with E[Q] = 1, and where the birth rate if the population is currently in state (has size) n is α(n).

Extremes of geometric variables with applications to branching processes
Statistics & Probability Letters, 2003 We obtain limit theorems for the row extrema of a triangular array of zero-modified geometric random variables. Some of this is used to obtain limit theorems for the maximum family size within a generation of a simple branching process with varying geometric offspring laws.

Recursive Markov Decision Processes and Recursive Stochastic Games [PDF]
, 2005 We introduce Recursive Markov Decision Processes (RMDPs) and Recursive Simple Stochastic Games (RSSGs), and study the decidability and complexity of algorithms for their analysis and verification.

Probabilistic and Piecewise Deterministic models in Biology
ESAIM: Proceedings and Surveys, 2017 We present recent results on Piecewise Deterministic Markov Processes (PDMPs), involved in biological modeling. PDMPs, first introduced in the probabilistic literature by [30], are a very general class of Markov processes and are being increasingly ...

Numerical simulation of nanopost-guided self-organization dendritic architectures using phase-field model. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 Self-organized dendritic architecture is of fundamental importance and its application can be used in many natural and industrial processes. Nanopost arrays are usually used in the applications of reflecting grating and changing the material surface ...

Convergence of partial sum processes to stable processes with application for aggregation of branching processes [PDF]
Brazilian Journal of Probability and Statistics, 2022 We provide a generalization of Theorem 1 in Bartkiewicz, Jakubowski, Mikosch and Wintenberger (2011) in the sense that we give sufficient conditions for weak convergence of finite dimensional distributions of the partial sum processes of a strongly stationary sequence to the corresponding finite dimensional distributions of a non-Gaussian stable ...

Why Brain Criticality Is Clinically Relevant: A Scoping Review
Frontiers in Neural Circuits, 2020 The past 25 years have seen a strong increase in the number of publications related to criticality in different areas of neuroscience. The potential of criticality to explain various brain properties, including optimal information processing, has made it
