Reflecting or sticky Markov processes with Levy generators as the limit of storage processes

ON THE INFINITE ORDER MARKOV PROCESSES

The notion of infinite order Markov process is introduced and the Markov property of the flow of information is established.

Comparison of Markov processes via infinitesimal generators

We derive comparison results for Markov processes with respect to stochastic orderings induced by function classes. Our main result states that stochastic monotonicity of one process and comparability of the infinitesimal generators implies ordering of the processes. Unlike in previous work no boundedness assumptions on the function classes are needed anymore. We also present an integral versio...

A weak approximation for the Extrema's distributions of Levy processes

‎Suppose that $X_{t}$ is a one-dimensional and real-valued L'evy‎ ‎process started from $X_0=0$‎, ‎which ({bf 1}) its nonnegative‎ ‎jumps measure $nu$ satisfying $int_{Bbb‎ ‎R}min{1,x^2}nu(dx)

Application of Markov Processes to the Machine Delays Analysis

Production and non-productive equipment and personnel delays are a critical element of any production system. The frequency and length of delays impact heavily on the production and economic efficiency of these systems. Machining processes in wood industry are particularly vulnerable to productive and non-productive delays. Whereas, traditional manufacturing industries usually operate on homoge...
