Prediction Of The Stochastic Behavior Of Nonlinear Systems By Deterministic Models As A Classical Time-Passage Probabilistic Problem, L. M. Ivanov, A. D. Kirwan Jr., O. V. Melnichenko
CCPO Publications
Assuming that the behaviour of a nonlinear stochastic system can be described by a Markovian diffusion approximation and that the evolution equations can be reduced to a system of ordinary differential equations, a method for the calculation of prediction time is developed. In this approach, the prediction time depends upon the accuracy of prediction, the intensity of turbulence, the accuracy of the initial conditions, the physics contained in the mathematical model, the measurement errors, and the number of prediction variables. A numerical application to zonal channel flow illustrates the theory. Some possible generalizations of the theory are also discussed.
On Cohesion Stable Graphs, Virginia Rice, Richard D. Ringeisen
On Cohesion Stable Graphs, Virginia Rice, Richard D. Ringeisen
Mathematics & Statistics Faculty Publications
The cohesion of a graph was introduced to model vulnerability of a graph relative to the neighborhoods of its vertices. We are concerned in this paper with the changes in this parameter when an edge is deleted. In particular, after displaying some results on stability under edge destruction, we go on to display various infinite classes of cohesion stable graphs. Several ways in which graphs or parts of graphs may be combined to produce stable graphs are also presented, along with a look at what cannot be stated at this time.
Characterization Of The Local Lipschitz Constant, M. W. Bartelt, J. J. Swetits
Characterization Of The Local Lipschitz Constant, M. W. Bartelt, J. J. Swetits
Mathematics & Statistics Faculty Publications
A characterization, using polynomials introduced by A. V. Kolushov, is given for the local Lipschitz constant for the best approximation operator in Chebyshev approximation from a Haar set. The characterization is then used to study the existence of uniform local Lipschitz constants.
