Survival probabilities in time-dependent random walks.
We analyze the dynamics of random walks in which the jumping probabilities are periodic time-dependent functions. In particular, we determine the survival probability of biased walkers who are drifted towards an absorbing boundary. The typical lifetime of the walkers is found to decrease with an increment in the oscillation amplitude of the jumping probabilities. We discuss the applicability of...
متن کاملCalculation of time-dependent blocking probabilities
We consider the calculation of time-dependent blocking probabilities in the M/M/n/n loss system. We present a new method which allows one to find the temporal evolution of the probability of any given state, and, in particular, that of the blocking state without the need to solve the probabilities of all the other states or to find the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of a very large matrix corresp...
متن کاملCartel Stability with Time-dependent Detection Probabilities
To account for the illegal nature of price-fixing agreements, detection probabilities are introduced in a dynamic oligopoly. For a trigger strategy to sustain a non-cooperative collusive equilibrium as a SPNE both the discount rate and all per-period detection probabilities must be ‘low’. The domain reduces for which the strictest IC constraint is binding if (i) any per-period detection probabi...
متن کاملSpace- and Time-Dependent Probabilities for Earthquake Fault Systems from Numerical Simulations: Feasibility Study and First Results
In weather forecasting, current and past observational data are routinely assimilated into numerical simulations to produce ensemble forecasts of future events in a process termed ‘‘model steering’’. Here we describe a similar approach that is motivated by analyses of previous forecasts of the Working Group on California Earthquake Probabilities (WGCEP). Our approach is adapted to the problem o...
متن کاملSignificance of stress transfer in time-dependent earthquake probability calculations
[1] A sudden change in stress is seen to modify earthquake rates, but should it also revise earthquake probability? Data used to derive input parameters permit an array of forecasts; so how large a static stress change is required to cause a statistically significant earthquake probability change? To answer that question, effects of parameter and philosophical choices are examined through all p...
