Asymptotics in the random assignment problem

چکیده

In the deterministic assignment problem, there are n jobs, n machines and a n x n non-negative matrix (t j,,,) representing the cost of performing job j on machine m. An assignment is a permutation ~ of {1, ..., n}, indicating that job j is assigned to machine ~(j). The optimal assignment has cost min~tj ,~(j) , j the minimum taken over permutations re. For the random assignment problem we define the t j,,, to be independent r.v.'s with exponential distribution with mean n:

Probit-Based Traffic Assignment: A Comparative Study between Link-Based Simulation Algorithm and Path-Based Assignment and Generalization to Random-Coefficient Approach

Probabilistic approach of traffic assignment has been primarily developed to provide a more realistic and flexible theoretical framework to represent traveler’s route choice behavior in a transportation network. The problem of path overlapping in network modelling has been one of the main issues to be tackled. Due to its flexible covariance structure, probit model can adequately address the pro...

Asymptotic Cost of Cutting Down Random Free Trees

In this work, we calculate the limit distribution of the total cost incurred by splitting a tree selected at random from the set of all finite free trees. This total cost is considered to be an additive functional induced by a toll equal to the square of the size of tree. The main tools used are the recent results connecting the asymptotics of generating functions with the asymptotics of...

Pole Assignment Of Linear Discrete-Time Periodic Systems In Specified Discs Through State Feedback

The problem of pole assignment, also known as an eigenvalue assignment, in linear discrete-time periodic systems in discs was solved by a novel method which employs elementary similarity operations. The former methods tried to assign the points inside the unit circle while preserving the stability of the discrete time periodic system. Nevertheless, now we can obtain the location of eigenvalues ...

A New Model for Fleet Assignment Problem, Case Study of Iran Air Network at Vision 2036

The fleet assignment problem (FAP) assigns the type of airplane at each flight segment. Since airplane is an expensive resource, poor fleet assignment can cause a great increase in costs of airlines. There are so many consideration which should be tackled in formulation of a FAP problem, especially the parameters regarding to the airplanes. This paper presents a novel, mixed integer programing ...
