چکیده
Various best-choice problems related to the planar homogeneous Poisson process in finite or semi-infinite rectangle are studied. The analysis is largely based on properties of the onedimensional box-area process associated with the sequence of records. We prove a series of distributional identities involving exponential and uniform random variables, and resolve the Petruccelli-Porosinski-Samuels paradox on coincidence of asymptotic values in certain discretetime optimal stopping problems.

متن کامل9 S ep 2 00 8 Dirac and Nonholonomic Reduction
Several aspects of Dirac reduction are compared and formulated from the same geometric point of view. A link with nonholonomic reduction is found. The theory of optimal momentum maps and reduction is extended from the category of Poisson manifolds to that of closed Dirac manifolds. An optimal reduction method for a class of nonholonomic systems is formulated. Several examples are studied in det...

The integrability problem consists in finding the class of functions a first integral of a given planar polynomial differential system must belong to. We recall the characterization of systems which admit an elementary or Liouvillian first integral. We define Weierstrass integrability and we determine which Weierstrass integrable systems are Liouvillian integrable. Inside this new class of inte...

We give an intrinsic proof that Vorobjev’s first approximation of a Poisson manifold near a symplectic leaf is a Poisson manifold. We also show that Conn’s linearization results cannot be extended in Vorobjev’s setting

A symplectic variety X is a normal algebraic variety (defined over C) which admits an everywhere non-degenerate d-closed 2-form ω on the regular locus Xreg of X such that, for any resolution f : X̃ → X with f (Xreg) ∼= Xreg, the 2-form ω extends to a regular closed 2-form on X̃ (cf. [Be]). There is a natural Poisson structure { , } on X determined by ω. Then we can introduce the notion of a Poiss...
