In this paper we present a new approach to derive heavy-traffic asymptotics for polling models. We consider the classical cyclic polling model with exhaustive or gated service at ...
Abstract: The physical interactions among electrons and nuclei, responsible for the chemistry of atoms and molecules, is well described by quantum mechanics and chemistry is theref...
We show how B-series may be used to derive in a systematic way the analytical expressions of the high-order stroboscopic averaged equations that approximate the slow dynamics of h...
It was shown recently [7?9], under quite general conditions, that retransmission-based protocols may result in power-law delays and possibly zero throughput even if the distributi...
Recently the duplication closure of words and languages has received much interest. We investigate a reversal of it: the duplication root reduces a word to a square-free one. After...
