In the introduction some relatively recent results on the maximum correlation coefficient will be presented in two setups. The first deals with partial sums of independent identically distributed rand...
This paper aims to apply simple actuarial methods to build an insurance plan protecting against an epidemic risk in a population. The studied model is an extended SIR epidemic in which the removal and...
We consider Galton Watson branching processes of unique type and multi-type in fixed and in random environment. The main target is to observe the asymptotic behaviour of the survival probability of th...
ABSTRAC Consider a proper metric space X and a sequence (Fn) of i.i.d. random continuous mappings from X to X. It induces the stochastic dynamical system (SDS) Xn = Fn ∘ ∘ ∘ F1(x) starting at x ∈ X. W...
The aim of the talk is to connect the optimal control of Vlasov-type PDEs with large systems of controlled interacting particles/agents. The main difference towards the classical mean-field theory, wh...
random walk on a finite graph exhibits cutoff if its distance from stationarity remains close to the initial value for a certain number of iterations and then abruptly drops to near zero on a much sho...
Abstract: The astonishingly long lives of plants and their regeneration capacity depend on the activity of plant stem cells. As in animals, stem cells reside in stem cell niches, which produce signals...
Abstract: Several nanoparticles self-assemble from multiple copies of a limited number of building blocks, viruses being the archetypal example in biology. A majority of viruses have a highly ordered ...
Abstract: Shape memory polymers and their composites (SMPs and SMPCs) belong to a new class of smart materials, which can have interesting applications as expandable/deployable structures and light ac...
Abstract: The process of lineage specification is fundamental to the development and maintenance of tissues in multicellular organisms. An unsolved question is whether molecular cues such as growth fa...
