Shape Fluctuations and Random Matrices
We study a certain random growth model in two dimensions closely related to the one-dimensional totally asymmetric exclusion process. The results show that the shape fluctuations, appropriately scaled, converges in distribution to the Tracy-Widom largest eigenvalue distribution for the Gaussian Unitary Ensemble (GUE).
متن کاملMarkov-switching stochastic trends and economic fluctuations
I investigate cointegrating relationships such that, even though the long-run attractors are assumed to be linear, the dynamics of the equilibrium errors depends on the business cycle. I postulate a Markov-switching common stochastic trends model to study both the short-run responses to permanent shocks and the e/ects of recessions in the long-run growth. I apply these 0ndings to explore the sh...
متن کاملGaussian fluctuations for random walks in random mixing environments
We consider a class of ballistic, multidimensional random walks in random environments where the environment satisfies appropriate mixing conditions. Continuing our previous work [2] for the law of large numbers, we prove here that the fluctuations are gaussian when the environment is Gibbsian satisfying the “strong mixing condition” of Dobrushin and Shlosman and the mixing rate is large enough...
متن کاملBlood Transfusion and Athletics
* * In 1976, the Medical Commission ofthe International Olympic Committee formally condemned the practice of blood transfusion for athletes in good health. As ofthis writing, however, blood doping has not been explicitly forbidden. The Author discusses important and controversial questions such as: does blood transfusion afford world-class athletes a substantial competitive advantage? Is this p...
متن کاملEnslaving random fluctuations in nonequlibrium systems
Several physical models have recently been proposed to obtain unidirectional motion of an overdamped Brownian particle in a periodic potential system. The asymmetric ratchetlike form of the periodic potential and the presence of correlated nonequilibrium fluctuating forces are considered essential to obtain such a macroscopic motion in homogeneous systems. In the present work, instead, inhomoge...
