Abstract A continuous-state branching process with immigration having mechanism $\Psi$ and $\Phi$ , a CBI $(\Psi,\Phi)$ for short, may have either of two different asymptotic regimes, depending on whether $\int_{0}\frac{\Phi(u)}{|\Psi(u)|}\textrm{d} u<\infty$ or u=\infty$ . When the has limit distribution growth rate dictated by dynamics. $\scriptstyle\int_{0}\tfrac{\Phi(u)}{|\Psi(u)|}\textr...

Submitted for the MAR13 Meeting of The American Physical Society Diffusion of gaseous and supercritical CO2 through polycarbonate 1 MICHAEL GOODMAN, RAHMI OZISIK, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute — The design of polymeric materials for applications such as separation membranes and nanostructured foams requires prediction of gas transport properties under a wide range of pressures. In the curren...

It has been indicated that photosystem I (PSI) is susceptible to chilling-light stress in tobacco leaves, but the effect of growth light intensity on chilling-induced PSI photoinhibition in tobacco is unclear. We examined the effects of chilling temperature (4°C) associated with moderate light intensity (300 μmol photons m(-2) s(-1)) on the activities of PSI and photosystem II (PSII) in leaves ...

In this paper we present new theoretical results on optimal estimation of certain random quantities based high frequency observations a Lévy process. More specifically, investigate the asymptotic theory for conditional mean and median estimators supremum/infimum linear Brownian motion strictly stable Another contribution our article is local time occupation motion. We demonstrate that are consi...

We apply the tropical intersection theory developed by L. Allermann and J. Rau to compute intersection products of tropical Psi-classes on the moduli space of rational tropical curves. We show that in the case of zero-dimensional (stable) intersections, the resulting numbers agree with the intersection numbers of Psi-classes on the moduli space of n-marked rational curves computed in algebraic ...

In the paper, we investigate an asymptotic behavior of sharp upper bounds in integral metric deviations Abel-Poisson integrals from functions class $L^{\psi}_{\beta, 1}$. The are solutions partial differential equations elliptic type with corresponding boundary conditions, and they play important role applied problems. approximative properties on different classes differentiable were studied a ...

Asymptotic and exact conditional approaches have often been used for testing agreement between two raters with binary outcomes. The exact conditional approach is guaranteed to respect the test size as compared to the traditionally used asymptotic approach based on the standardized Cohen's kappa coefficient. An alternative to the conditional approach is an unconditional strategy which relaxes th...

Barndorff-Nielsen and Cox (1994, p.319) modify an estimative prediction limit to obtain an improved prediction limit with better coverage properties. Kabaila and Syuhada (2008) present a simulation-based approximation to this improved prediction limit, which avoids the extensive algebraic manipulations required for this modification. We present a modification of an estimative prediction interva...

Introduction: Currently, the only treatment for end stage arthritis in the knee is total knee replacement (TKR). Even though TKR has improved over the years, with implants having greater longevity, patient satisfaction following TKR has not improved, with approximately 20% of patients recording dissatisfaction with their new knee joint. Manufacturers have attempted to solve this issue with pati...
