Miners' Reward Elasticity and Stability of Competing Proof‐of‐Work Cryptocurrencies

International Economic Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Proof‐of‐Work cryptocurrencies employ miners to sustain the system through algorithmic reward adjustments. We develop a stochastic model of the multicurrency mining and identify conditions for stable transaction speeds. Bitcoin's algorithm requires hash supply elasticity <$<$1 for stability, while ASERT remains stable for any elasticity and ...

Out-of-plane vibrations of curved nonprismatic beam under a moving load

Journal of Civil Engineering and Management, 2012
The forced vibrations of a curved-in-plane nonprismatic beam with a variable cross section and any curvature, generated by a load moving at a variable velocity are analyzed.

Non-linear evolution of a second mode wave in supersonic boundary layers [PDF]

The nonlinear time evolution of a second mode instability in a Mach 4.5 wall-bounded flow is computed by solving the full compressible, time-dependent Navier-Stokes equations.

Unconditional Variance Estimation Under Complex Surveys

International Statistical Review, EarlyView.
Summary The unconditional framework treats the samples and the variables of interest as random variables. This is particularly suitable with analytic inference, when modelling survey data. We show that variance estimation does not involve finite population corrections and joint‐inclusion probabilities, even with large sampling fractions and under ...

Piecewise linear differential systems with an algebraic line of separation

Electronic Journal of Differential Equations, 2020
We study the number of limit cycles of planar piecewise linear differential systems separated by a branch of an algebraic curve. We show that for each $n\in\mathbb{N}$ there exist piecewise linear differential systems separated by an algebraic curve ...

A Non‐Parametric Framework for Correlation Functions on Product Metric Spaces

International Statistical Review, EarlyView.
Summary We propose a non‐parametric framework for analysing data defined over products of metric spaces, a versatile class encountered in various fields. This framework accommodates non‐stationarity and seasonality and is applicable to both local and global domains, such as the Earth's surface, as well as domains evolving over linear time or time ...

Monetary Policy When Preferences Are Quasi‐Hyperbolic

Journal of Money, Credit and Banking, EarlyView.
Abstract We study discretionary monetary policy in an economy where economic agents have quasi‐hyperbolic discounting. We demonstrate that a benevolent central bank is able to keep inflation under control for a wide range of discount factors. If the central bank, however, does not adopt the household's time preferences and tries to discourage early ...

Degenerate matrix method with Chebyshev nodes for solving nonlinear systems of differential equations

Mathematical Modelling and Analysis, 1999
One of the simplest schemes of the degenerate matrix method with nodes as zeroes of Chebyshev polynomials of the second kind is considered. Performance of simple iterations and some modifications of Newton method for the discrete problem is compared ...

Sequential Outlier Detection in Nonstationary Time Series

Journal of Time Series Analysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A novel method for sequential outlier detection in nonstationary time series is proposed. The method tests the null hypothesis of “no outlier” at each time point, addressing the multiple testing problem by bounding the error probability of successive tests, using extreme‐value theory. The asymptotic properties of the test statistic are studied

New method for solving strong conservative odd parity nonlinear oscillators: Applications to plasma physics and rigid rotator

AIP Advances, 2020
In the present work, a new method for solving a strong nonlinear oscillator equation of the form ẍ + F(x) = 0, where F(−x) = −F(x), is carried out. This method consists of approximating function F(x) by means of a suitable Chebyshev polynomial: F(x) ≈ P(
