An Overview of Some Stochastic Stability Methods ̃
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents an overview of stochastic stability methods, mostly motivated by (but not limited to) stochastic network applications. We work with stochastic recursive sequences, and, in particular, Markov chains in a general Polish state space. We discuss, and frequently compare, methods based on (i) Lyapunov functions, (ii) fluid limits, (iii) explicit coupling (renovating events and Harris chains), and (iv) monotonicity. We also discuss existence of stationary solutions and instability methods. The paper focuses on methods and uses examples only to exemplify the theory. Proofs are given insofar as they contain some new, unpublished, elements, or are necessary for the logical reading of this exposition.

Stability of two classes of improved backward Euler methods for stochastic delay differential equations of neutral type
This paper examines stability analysis of two classes of improved backward Euler methods, namely split-step $(theta, lambda)$-backward Euler (SSBE) and semi-implicit $(theta,lambda)$-Euler (SIE) methods, for nonlinear neutral stochastic delay differential equations (NSDDEs). It is proved that the SSBE method with $theta, lambdain(0,1]$ can recover the exponential mean-square stability with some...
متن کاملAlmost sure exponential stability of stochastic reaction diffusion systems with Markovian jump
The stochastic reaction diffusion systems may suffer sudden shocks, in order to explain this phenomena, we use Markovian jumps to model stochastic reaction diffusion systems. In this paper, we are interested in almost sure exponential stability of stochastic reaction diffusion systems with Markovian jumps. Under some reasonable conditions, we show that the trivial solution of stocha...
متن کاملFUZZY INFORMATION AND STOCHASTICS
In applications there occur different forms of uncertainty. The twomost important types are randomness (stochastic variability) and imprecision(fuzziness). In modelling, the dominating concept to describe uncertainty isusing stochastic models which are based on probability. However, fuzzinessis not stochastic in nature and therefore it is not considered in probabilisticmodels.Since many years t...
متن کاملAPPROXIMATION OF STOCHASTIC PARABOLIC DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS WITH TWO DIFFERENT FINITE DIFFERENCE SCHEMES
We focus on the use of two stable and accurate explicit finite difference schemes in order to approximate the solution of stochastic partial differential equations of It¨o type, in particular, parabolic equations. The main properties of these deterministic difference methods, i.e., convergence, consistency, and stability, are separately developed for the stochastic cases.
متن کاملAn Overview of Fabrication Methods and Applications of Carbon Nanotube Membrane in Environmental Engineering as Hydraulic Microstructures
The main purpose of this article is to study fabrication methods and applications of aligned carbon nanotube (CNT) membranes as a hydraulic microstructure in treatment processes. This paper emphasizes the use of CNTs as membrane in separation processes like water and wastewater treatment because of their exclusive advantages. Their most important characteristics are high mechanical strength aga...
