چکیده
Foods naturally contain a number of contaminants that may have different and long term toxic effects. This paper introduces a novel approach for the assessment of such chronic food risk that integrates the pharmakokinetic properties of a given contaminant. The estimation of such a Kinetic Dietary Exposure Model (KDEM) should be based on long term consumption data which, for the moment, can only be provided by Household Budget Surveys such as the SECODIP panel in France. A semi parametric model is proposed to decompose a series of household quantities into individual quantities which are then used as inputs of the KDEM. As an illustration, the risk assessment related to the presence of methylmercury in seafoods is revisited using this novel approach.

We examine the total number of collisions Cn in the Λ-coalescent process which starts with n particles. A linear growth and a stable limit law for Cn are shown under the assumption of a power-like behaviour of the measure Λ near 0 with exponent 0 < α < 1.

We develop a method, initially due to Salamon, to compute the space of " invariant " forms on an associated bundle X = P ×G V , with a suitable notion of invariance. We determine sufficient conditions for this space to be d-closed. We apply our method to the construction of hyperkähler metrics on T CP 1 and T CP 2 .

We consider stochastic differential equations dY = V (Y ) dX driven by a multidimensional Gaussian process X in the rough path sense. Using Malliavin Calculus we show that Yt admits a density for t ∈ (0, T ] provided (i) the vector fields V = (V1, ..., Vd) satisfy Hörmander’s condition and (ii) the Gaussian driving signal X satisfies certain conditions. Examples of driving signals include fract...
