Multitype Randomized Reed–frost Epidemics and Epidemics upon Random Graphs
We consider a multitype epidemic model which is a natural extension of the randomized Reed–Frost epidemic model. The main result is the derivation of an asymptotic Gaussian limit theorem for the final size of the epidemic. The method of proof is simpler, and more direct, than is used for similar results elsewhere in the epidemics literature. In particular, the results are specialized to epidemi...
متن کاملFunctional Limit Theorems for Multitype Branching Processes and Generalized Pólya Urns
A functional limit theorem is proved for multitype continuous time Markov branching processes. As consequences, we obtain limit theorems for the branching process stopped by some stopping rule, for example when the total number of particles reaches a given level. Using the Athreya–Karlin embedding, these results yield asymptotic results for generalized Pólya urns. We investigate such results in...
متن کاملCentral Limit Theorem in Multitype Branching Random Walk
A discrete time multitype (p-type) branching random walk on the real line R is considered. The positions of the j-type individuals in the n-th generation form a point process. The asymptotic behavior of these point processes, when the generation size tends to infinity, is studied. The central limit theorem is proved.
متن کاملLimit theorems for mergesort
Central and local limit theorems (including large deviations) are established for the number of comparisons used by the standard top-down recursive mergesort under the uniform permutation model. The method of proof utilizes Dirichlet series, Mellin transforms and standard analytic methods in probability theory.
متن کاملLimit Theorems for Bivariate Appell
Consider the stationary linear process X t = P 1 u=?1 a(t?u) u , t 2 Z, where f u g is an i.i.d. nite variance sequence. The spectral density of fX t g may diverge at the origin (long-range dependence) or at any other frequency. Consider now the quadratic form Q N = P N t;s=1 b(t ? s)P m;n (X t ; X s), where P n;m (X t ; X s) denotes a non-linear function (Appell polynomial). We provide general...
