Exact Tail Asymptotics for a Queueing System with a Retrial Orbit and Batch Service

This paper discusses a queueing system with a retrial orbit and batch service, in which the quantity of customers’ rooms in the queue is finite and the space of retrial orbit is infinite. When the server starts serving, it serves all customers in the queue in a single batch, which is the so-called batch service. If a new customer or a retrial customer finds all the customers’ rooms are occupied, he will decide whether or not to join the retrial orbit. By using the censoring technique and the matrix analysis method, we first obtain the decay function of the stationary distribution for the quantity of customers in the retrial orbit and the quantity of customers in the queue. Then based on the form of decay rate function and the Karamata Tauberian theorem, we finally get the exact tail asymptotics of the stationary distribution.

EQUIVALENT CONDITIONS OF LOCAL ASYMPTOTICS FOR THE OVERSHOOT OF A RANDOM WALK WITH HEAVY-TAILED INCREMENTS

This article gives the equivalent conditions of the local asymptotics for the overshoot of a random walk with heavy-tailed increments, from which we find that the above asymptotics are different from the local asymptotics for the supremum of the random walk. To do this, the article first extends and improves some existing results about the solutions of renewal equations.

RELATIVE ASYMPTOTICS FOR ORTHOGONAL MATRIX POLYNOMIALS WITH RESPECT TO A PERTURBED MATRIX MEASURE ON THE UNIT CIRCLE

Given a positive definite matrix measure Ω supported on the unit circle T, then main purpose of this paper is to study the asymptotic behavior of L n()L n(Ω) -1 and Φ n(z;)Φ n(z;Ω) -1 where(z)=Ω(z)+Mδ(z-w); |w|>1,M is a positive definite matrix and δ is the Dirac matrix measure. Here, L n(·) means the leading coefficient of the orthonormal matrix polynomials Φ n(z;·). Finally, we deduce the asymptotic behavior of Φ n(w;)Φ n(w;Ω)* in the case when M=I.

ASYMPTOTICS OF ORTHOGONAL POLYNOMIALS VIA THE RIEMANN-HILBERT APPROACH

In this survey we give a brief introduction to orthogonal polynomials, including a short review of classical asymptotic methods. Then we turn to a discussion of the Riemann-Hilbert formulation of orthogonal polynomials, and the Delft ＆ Zhou method of steepest descent. We illustrate this new approach, and a modified version, with the Hermite polynomials. Other recent progress of this method is also mentioned, including applications to discrete orthogonal polynomials, orthogonal polynomials on curves, multiple orthogonal polynomials, and certain orthogonal polynomials with singular behavior.

HAZARD REGRESSION WITH PENALIZED SPLINE:THE SMOOTHING PARAMETER CHOICE AND ASYMPTOTICS

In this article, we use penalized spline to estimate the hazard function from a set of censored failure time data. A new approach to estimate the amount of smoothing is provided. Under regularity conditions we establish the consistency and the asymptotic normality of the penalized likelihood estimators. Numerical studies and an example are conducted to evaluate the performances of the new procedure.

Asymptotics and Well-Posedness of the Derived Distribution Density in a Study of Biovariability

In our recent work (Wang, Burgei, and Zhou, 2018) we studied the hearing loss injury among subjects in a crowd with a wide spectrum of heterogeneous individual injury susceptibility due to biovariability. The injury risk of a crowd is defined as the average fraction of injured. We examined mathematically the injury risk of a crowd vs the number of acoustic impulses the crowd is exposed to, under the assumption that all impulses act independently in causing injury regardless of whether one is preceded by another. We concluded that the observed dose-response relation can be explained solely on the basis of biovariability in the form of heterogeneous susceptibility. We derived an analytical solution for the distribution density of injury susceptibility, as a power series expansion in terms of scaled log individual non-injury probability. While theoretically the power series converges for all argument values, in practical computations with IEEE double precision, at large argument values, the numerical accuracy of the power series summation is completely wiped out by the accumulation of round-off errors. In this study, we derive a general asymptotic approximation at large argument values, for the distribution density. The combination of the power series and the asymptotics provides a practical numerical tool for computing the distribution density. We then use this tool to verify numerically that the distribution obtained in our previous theoretical study is indeed a proper density. In addition, we will also develop a very efficient and accurate Pade approximation for the distribution density.

This problem includes Laplacian operators as special cases.

ASYMPTOTICS OF THE RESIDUALS DENSITY ESTIMATION IN NONPARAMETRIC REGRESSION UNDER m(n)-DEPENDENT SAMPLE

Let Y_i=M(X_i)+ei, where M(x)=E(Y|X=x) is an unknown realfunction on B(? R), {(X_1,Y_i)} is a stationary and m(n)-dependent sample from(X, Y), the residuals {e_i} are independent of {X_i} and have unknown common densityf(x). In [2] a nonparametric estimate f_n(x) for f(x) has been proposed on the basisof the residuals estimates. In this paper, we further obtain the asymptotic normalityand the law of the iterated logarithm of f_n(x) under some suitable conditions. Theseresults together with those in [2] bring the asymptotic theory for the residuals densityestimate in nonparametric regression under m(n)-dependent sample to completion.

Long-time Asymptotics for the Reverse Space-time Nonlocal Hirota Equation with Decaying Initial Value Problem:without Solitons

In this work,we mainly consider the Cauchy problem for the reverse space-time nonlocal Hirota equation with the initial data rapidly decaying in the solitonless sector.Start from the Lax pair,we first construct the basis Riemann-Hilbert problem for the reverse space-time nonlocal Hirota equation.Furthermore,using the approach of Deift-Zhou nonlinear steepest descent,the explicit long-time asymptotics for the reverse space-time nonlocal Hirota is derived.For the reverse space-time nonlocal Hirota equation,since the symmetries of its scattering matrix are different with the local Hirota equation,the v(λ_(i))(i=0,1)would like to be imaginary,which results in theδ_(λi)^(0)contains an increasing t(±Imv(λ_(i)))/2,and then the asymptotic behavior for nonlocal Hirota equation becomes differently.

Asymptotics for the joint tail probability of bidimensional randomly weighted sums with applications to insurance

This paper studies the joint tail behavior of two randomly weighted sums∑_(i=1)^(m)Θ_(i)X_(i)and∑_(j=1)^(n)θ_(j)Y_(j)for some m,n∈N∪{∞},in which the primary random variables{X_(i);i∈N}and{Y_(i);i∈N},respectively,are real-valued,dependent and heavy-tailed,while the random weights{Θi,θi;i∈N}are nonnegative and arbitrarily dependent,but the three sequences{X_(i);i∈N},{Y_(i);i∈N}and{Θ_(i),θ_(i);i∈N}are mutually independent.Under two types of weak dependence assumptions on the heavy-tailed primary random variables and some mild moment conditions on the random weights,we establish some(uniformly)asymptotic formulas for the joint tail probability of the two randomly weighted sums,expressing the insensitivity with respect to the underlying weak dependence structures.As applications,we consider both discrete-time and continuous-time insurance risk models,and obtain some asymptotic results for ruin probabilities.

Multiple Soliton Asymptotics in a Spin-1 Bose–Einstein Condensate

Spinor Bose–Einstein condensates(BECs)are formed when atoms in the multi-component BECs possess single hyperfine spin states but retain internal spin degrees of freedom.This study concentrates on a(1+1)-dimensional three-couple Gross–Pitaevskii system to depict the macroscopic spinor BEC waves within the meanfield approximation.Regarding the distribution of the atoms corresponding to the three vertical spin projections,a known binary Darboux transformation is utilized to derive the𝑁matter-wave soliton solutions and triple-pole matter-wave soliton solutions on the zero background,where𝑁is a positive integer.For those multiple matterwave solitons,the asymptotic analysis is performed to obtain the algebraic expressions of the soliton components in the𝑁matter-wave solitons and triple-pole matter-wave solitons.The asymptotic results indicate that the matter-wave solitons in the spinor BECs possess the property of maintaining their energy content and coherence during the propagation and interactions.Particularly,in the𝑁matter-wave solitons,each soliton component contributes to the phase shifts of the other soliton components;and in the triple-pole matter-wave solitons,stable attractive forces exist between the different matter-wave soliton components.Those multiple matter-wave solitons are graphically illustrated through three-dimensional plots,density plot and contour plot,which are consistent with the asymptotic analysis results.The present analysis may provide the explanations for the complex natural mechanisms of the matter waves in the spinor BECs,and may have potential applications in designs of atom lasers,atom interferometry and coherent atom transport.

Asymptotics of the Solution to a Stationary Piecewise-Smooth Reaction-Diffusion-Advection Equation

A singularly perturbed boundary value problem for a piecewise-smooth nonlinear stationary equation of reaction-diffusion-advection type is studied.A new class of problems in the case when the discontinuous curve which separates the domain is monotone with respect to the time variable is considered.The existence of a smooth solution with an internal layer appearing in the neighborhood of some point on the discontinuous curve is studied.An efficient algorithm for constructing the point itself and an asymptotic representation of arbitrary-order accuracy to the solution is proposed.For sufficiently small parameter values,the existence theorem is proved by the technique of matching asymptotic expansions.An example is given to show the effectiveness of their method.
