  • on largest offspring in a critical branching process with finite variance
    Journal of Applied Probability, 2013
    Co-Authors: Jean Bertoin
    Abstract:

    Continuing the work in Bertoin (2011) we study the distribution of the Maximal Number Xk* of offspring amongst all individuals in a critical Galton-Watson process started with k ancestors, treating the case when the reproduction law has a regularly varying tail ... with index -a for a > 2 (and, hence, finite variance). We show that Xk* suitably normalized converges in distribution to a Frechet law with shape parameter a/2; this contrasts sharply with the case 1 < a < 2 when the variance is infinite. More generally, we obtain a weak limit theorem for the offspring sequence ranked in decreasing order, in terms of atoms of a certain doubly stochastic Poisson measure.

  • on the Maximal offspring in a critical branching process with infinite variance
    Journal of Applied Probability, 2011
    Co-Authors: Jean Bertoin
    Abstract:

    We investigate the Maximal Number $M_k$ of offsprings amongst all individuals in a critical Galton-Watson process started with $k$ ancestors. We show that when the reproduction law has a regularly varying tail with index $-\alpha$ for $1<\alpha<2$, then $k^{-1}M_k$ converges in distribution to a Frechet law with shape parameter $1$ and scale parameter depending only on $\alpha$.

  • moments of the Maximal Number of empty simplices of a random point set
    Discrete and Computational Geometry, 2018
    Co-Authors: Daniel Temesvari
    Abstract:

    For a finite set X of n points from $$ \mathbb {R}^M$$ , the degree of an M-element subset $$\{x_1,\dots ,x_M\}$$ of X is defined as the Number of M-simplices that can be constructed from this M-element subset using an additional point $$z \in X$$ , such that no further point of X lies in the interior of this M-simplex. Furthermore, the degree of X, denoted by $$\deg (X)$$ , is the Maximal degree of any of its M-element subsets. The purpose of this paper is to show that the moments of the degree of X satisfy $$\mathbb {E}\,[ \deg (X)^k ] \ge c n^k/\log n$$ , for some constant $$c>0$$ , if the elements of the set X are chosen uniformly and independently from a convex body $$W \subset \mathbb {R}^M$$ . Additionally, it will be shown that $$\deg (X)$$ converges in probability to infinity as the Number of points of the set X goes to infinity.

  • moments of the Maximal Number of empty simplices of a random point set
    arXiv: Probability, 2016
    Co-Authors: Daniel Temesvari
    Abstract:

    For a finite set $X$ of $n$ points from $\mathbb{R}^M$, the degree of an $M$-element subset $\{x_1,\dots,x_M\}$ of $X$ is defined as the Number of $M$-simplices that can be constructed from this $M$-element subset using an additional point $z\in X$, such that no further point of $X$ lies in the interior of this $M$-simplex. Furthermore, the degree of $X$, denoted by $\textrm{deg} (X)$, is the Maximal degree of any of its $M$-element subsets. The purpose of this paper is to show that the moments of the degree of $X$ satisfy $\mathbb{E}\left[\textrm{deg} (X)^k\right] \geq c n^k / \log n$, for some constant $c>0$, if the elements of the set $X$ are chosen uniformly and independently from a convex body $W \subset \mathbb{R}^M$. Additionally, it will be shown that these moments converge in probability to infinity as the Number of points of the set $X$ goes to infinity.

  • a systematic method of finding linearizing transformations for nonlinear ordinary differential equations i scalar case
    Journal of Nonlinear Mathematical Physics, 2012
    Co-Authors: V K Chandrasekar, M Senthilvelan, M Lakshmanan
    Abstract:

    In this paper we formulate a stand alone method to derive Maximal Number of linearizing transformations for nonlinear ordinary differential equations (ODEs) of any order including coupled ones from a knowledge of fewer Number of integrals of motion. The proposed algorithm is simple, straightforward and efficient and helps to unearth several new types of linearizing transformations besides the known ones in the literature. To make our studies systematic we divide our analysis into two parts. In the first part we confine our investigations to the scalar ODEs and in the second part we focus our attention on a system of two coupled second-order ODEs. In the case of scalar ODEs, we consider second and third-order nonlinear ODEs in detail and discuss the method of deriving Maximal Number of linearizing transformations irrespective of whether it is local or nonlocal type and illustrate the underlying theory with suitable examples. As a by-product of this investigation we unearth a new type of linearizing transfo...

  • a systematic method of finding linearizing transformations for nonlinear ordinary differential equations i scalar case
    arXiv: Exactly Solvable and Integrable Systems, 2010
    Co-Authors: V K Chandrasekar, M Senthilvelan, M Lakshmanan
    Abstract:

    In this set of papers we formulate a stand alone method to derive Maximal Number of linearizing transformations for nonlinear ordinary differential equations (ODEs) of any order including coupled ones from a knowledge of fewer Number of integrals of motion. The proposed algorithm is simple, straightforward and efficient and helps to unearth several new types of linearizing transformations besides the known ones in the literature. To make our studies systematic we divide our analysis into two parts. In the first part we confine our investigations to the scalar ODEs and in the second part we focuss our attention on a system of two coupled second order ODEs. In the case of scalar ODEs, we consider second and third order nonlinear ODEs in detail and discuss the method of deriving Maximal Number of linearizing transformations irrespective of whether it is local or nonlocal type and illustrate the underlying theory with suitable examples. As a by-product of this investigation we unearth a new type of linearizing transformation in third order nonlinear ODEs. Finally the study is extended to the case of general scalar ODEs. We then move on to the study of two coupled second order nonlinear ODEs in the next part and show that the algorithm brings out a wide variety of linearization transformations. The extraction of Maximal Number of linearizing transformations in every case is illustrated with suitable examples.
