Applying the theory of voter model and the theory of stopping time, we investigate the statistical properties of the fluctuations of interfaces model that defined from the voter model. We show that the probability distributions of the fluctuations, under some conditions, converge to the corresponding distribution of a geometric Brownian motion. Key-Words: Fluctuation; interface; voter model; st...

We identify conditions for geometric ergodicity of general, and possibly nonparametric, nonlinear autoregressive time series. We also indicate how a condition for ergodicity, with minimal side assumptions, may in fact imply geometric ergodicity. Our examples include models for which exponential stability of the associated (noiseless) dynamical system is not sufficient or not necessary, or both.

This paper investigates the reachability and controllability issues for switched linear discrete-time systems. Geometric characterization of controllability is presented. For reversible systems, the controllable sets and the reachable sets are identified in Wonham’s geometric approach, and verifiable conditions for reachability and controllability are also presented.

In this article we consider the boundary stabilization of a wave equation with variable coefficients. This equation has an acceleration term and a delayed velocity term on the boundary. Under suitable geometric conditions, we obtain the exponential decay for the solutions. Our proof relies on the geometric multiplier method and the Lyapunov approach.

We prove Whitney regularity results for the solutions of the coboundary equation over dynamically defined Cantor sets satisfying a natural geometric regularity condition, in particular hyperbolic basic sets in dimension two. To do this we prove an analogue of Journé’s well-known result in the context of Cantor sets satisfying geometric regularity conditions.

We describe the effects of geometric torsion on the coherent motion of electrons along a thin twisted quantum ring. The geometric torsion inherent in the quantum ring triggers a quantum phase shift in the electrons' eigenstates, thereby resulting in a torsion-induced persistent current that flows along the twisted quantum ring. The physical conditions required for detecting the current flow are...

We look for geometric structures which underlie both the 'classical' geometric and more modern 'order theoretic' conditions for a Banach space (dual space) to have the weak (weak*) fixed point property; that is, for every nonexpansive self-mapping of a nonempty weak (weak*) compact convex subset to have a fixed point.

We analyze thoroughly the boundary conditions allowed in classical non-linear sigma models and derive from first principle the corresponding geometric objects, i.e. D-branes. In addition to giving classical D-branes an intrinsic and geometric foundation, D-branes in nontrivial H flux and D-branes embedded within D-branes are precisely defined. A well known topological condition on D-branes is r...

This paper studies a new approach to analyze the large deflection behavior of prismatic and non-prismatic beams of non-homogenous material under combined load and multiple boundary conditions. The mathematical formulation has been derived which led to a set of six first-order ordinary differential equations. The geometric nonlinearity was solved numerically using the multiple shooting method co...
