Comparing two systems: Beyond common random numbers
Suppose one wishes to compare two closely related systems via stochastic simulation. Common random numbers (CRN) involves using the same streams of uniform random variates as inpu...

Analysis and generation of random vectors with copulas
Copulas are used in finance and insurance for modeling stochastic dependency. They comprehend the entire dependence structure, not only the correlations. Here they are estimated ...

The shape of unlabeled rooted random trees
We consider the number of nodes in the levels of unlabelled rooted random trees and show that the stochastic process given by the properly scaled level sizes weakly converges to th...

On complexity of multistage stochastic programs
In this paper we derive estimates of the sample sizes required to solve a multistage stochastic programming problem with a given accuracy by the (conditional sampling) sample aver...

Conductance and congestion in power law graphs
It has been observed that the degrees of the topologies of several communication networks follow heavy tailed statistics. What is the impact of such heavy tailed statistics on the...
