Download or read book Weak Convergence of Measures written by Patrick Billingsley and published by SIAM. This book was released on 1971-01-01 with total page 37 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A treatment of the convergence of probability measures from the foundations to applications in limit theory for dependent random variables. Mapping theorems are proved via Skorokhod's representation theorem; Prokhorov's theorem is proved by construction of a content. The limit theorems at the conclusion are proved under a new set of conditions that apply fairly broadly, but at the same time make possible relatively simple proofs.

Download or read book Competition Models in Population Biology written by Paul Waltman and published by SIAM. This book was released on 1983-01-01 with total page 81 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book uses fundamental ideas in dynamical systems to answer questions of a biologic nature, in particular, questions about the behavior of populations given a relatively few hypotheses about the nature of their growth and interaction. The principal subject treated is that of coexistence under certain parameter ranges, while asymptotic methods are used to show competitive exclusion in other parameter ranges. Finally, some problems in genetics are posed and analyzed as problems in nonlinear ordinary differential equations.

Download or read book Random Number Generation and Quasi Monte Carlo Methods written by Harald Niederreiter and published by SIAM. This book was released on 1992-01-01 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tremendous progress has taken place in the related areas of uniform pseudorandom number generation and quasi-Monte Carlo methods in the last five years. This volume contains recent important work in these two areas, and stresses the interplay between them. Some developments contained here have never before appeared in book form. Includes the discussion of the integrated treatment of pseudorandom numbers and quasi-Monte Carlo methods; the systematic development of the theory of lattice rules and the theory of nets and (t,s)-sequences; the construction of new and better low-discrepancy point sets and sequences; Nonlinear congruential methods; the initiation of a systematic study of methods for pseudorandom vector generation; and shift-register pseudorandom numbers. Based on a series of 10 lectures presented by the author at a CBMS-NSF Regional Conference at the University of Alaska at Fairbanks in 1990 to a selected group of researchers, this volume includes background material to make the information more accessible to nonspecialists.

Download or read book Methods of Dynamic and Nonsmooth Optimization written by Frank H. Clarke and published by SIAM. This book was released on 1989-01-01 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Presents the elements of a unified approach to optimization based on 'nonsmooth analysis', a term introduced in the 1970's by the author, who is a pioneer in the field. Based on a series of lectures given at a conference at Emory University in 1986, this volume presents its subjects in a self-contained and accessible manner. The topics treated here have been in an active state of development. Focuses mainly on deterministic optimal control, the calculus of variations, and mathematical programming. In addition, it features a tutorial in nonsmooth analysis and geometry and demonstrates that the method of value function analysis via proximal normals is a powerful tool in the study of necessary conditions, sufficient conditions, controllability, and sensitivity analysis. The distinction between inductive and deductive methods, the use of Hamiltonians, the verification technique, and penalization are also emphasized.
