The Regular Excluded Minors For Signed-Graphic Matroids, Hongxun Qin, Dan Slilaty, Xiangqian Zhou
The Regular Excluded Minors For Signed-Graphic Matroids, Hongxun Qin, Dan Slilaty, Xiangqian Zhou
Mathematics and Statistics Faculty Publications
We show that the complete list of regular excluded minors for the class of signed-graphic matroids is M*(G1),...,M*(G29),R15,R16. Here G1,...,G29 are the vertically 2-connected excluded minors for the class of projective-planar graphs and R15 and R16 are two regular matroids that we will define in the article.
A Berry-Esseen Theorem For Sample Quantiles Under Weak Dependence, S. N. Lahiri, Shuxia Sun
A Berry-Esseen Theorem For Sample Quantiles Under Weak Dependence, S. N. Lahiri, Shuxia Sun
Mathematics and Statistics Faculty Publications
This paper proves a Berry-Esseen theorem for sample quantiles of strongly-mixing random variables under a polynomial mixing rate. The rate of normal approximation is shown to be O(n-1/2) as n -> infinity, where n denotes the sample size. This result is in sharp contrast to the case of the sample mean of strongly-mixing random variables where the rate O(n-1/2) is not known even under an exponential strong mixing rate. The main result of the paper has applications in finance and econometrics as financial time series important data often are heavy-tailed and quantile …

Periodic Traveling Waves In Sirs Endemic Models, Tong Li, Yi Li, Herbert W. Hethcote
Mathematics and Statistics Faculty Publications
Mathematical models are used to determine if infection wave fronts could occur by traveling geographically in a loop around a region or continent. These infection wave fronts arise by Hopf bifurcation for some spatial models for infectious disease transmission with distributed-contacts. Periodic traveling waves are shown to exist for the spatial analog of the SIRS endemic model, in which the temporary immunity is described by a delay, but they do not exist in a similar spatial SIRS endemic model without a delay. Specifically, we found that the ratio of the delay ω in the recovered class and the average infectious …

A Direct Solution Of The Robin Inverse Problem, Weifu Fang, Suxing Zeng
Mathematics and Statistics Faculty Publications
We present a direct, linear boundary integral equation method for the inverse problem of recovering the Robin coefficient from a single partial boundary measurement of the solution to the Laplace equation.

This paper is contributed to the elliptic equation
(0.1) Δu+K(|x|)up+μf(|x|)=0,
where p>1, x∈Rn, n⩾3, and μ⩾0 is a constant. We study the structure of positive radial solutions of (0.1) and obtain the uniqueness of solution decaying faster than r−m at ∞ if μ is small enough under some assumptions on K and f, where m is the slow decay rate.
