Abstract. We derive upper and lower bounds for some statistical estimation problems. The upper bounds are established for the Gibbs algorithm. The lower bounds, applicable for all ...
We consider bounding the cardinality of an arbitrary triangulation with smallest angle : We show that if the local feature size (i.e. distance between disjoint vertices or edges) ...
Complex symmetric matrices whose real and imaginary parts are positive definite are shown to have a growth factor bounded by 2 for LU factorization. This result adds to the classe...
A nonlinear model of inflation and growth, with a fixed rate of money growth, is developed and its global dynamics analysed. These are compared with the local, linearised dynamics...
Prior research has suggested that the failure rates of faults follow a log normal distribution. We propose a specific model where distributions close to a log normal arise natural...
