In many situations, in all branches of physics, one encounters the power-like behavior of some variables, which is best described by a Tsallis distribution characterized by a nonextensivity parameter q and scale parameter T . However, there exist experimental results that can be described only by a Tsallis distributions, which are additionally decorated by some log-periodic oscillating factor. ...

Locally optimum detectors for weak random signals are derived for a generalized observation model incorporating signal-dependent and multiplicative noise. It is shown that the locally optimum random-signal detectors in the generalized observation model are interesting generalizations of those that would be obtained in the purely additive noisy signal model. Examples of explicit results for the ...

We introduce two drift-diagonally-implicit and derivative-free integrators for stiff systems of Itô stochastic differential equations with general non-commutative noise which have weak order 2 and deterministic order 2, 3, respectively. The methods are shown to be mean-square A-stable for the usual complex scalar linear test problem with multiplicative noise and improve significantly the stabil...

We provide sets of parameters for multiplicative linear congruential generators (MLCGs) of different sizes and good performance with respect to the spectral test. For ` = 8, 9, . . . , 64, 127, 128, we take as a modulus m the largest prime smaller than 2`, and provide a list of multipliers a such that the MLCG with modulus m and multiplier a has a good lattice structure in dimensions 2 to 32.
