چکیده

We give potential theoretic estimates for the probability that a set A contains a double point of planar Brownian motion run for unit time. Unlike the probability for A to intersect the range of a Markov process, this cannot be estimated by a capacity of the set A. Instead, we introduce the notion of a capacity with respect to two gauge functions simultaneously. We also give a polar decomposition of A into a set that never intersects the set of Brownian double points and a set for which intersection with the set of Brownian double points is the same as intersection with the Brownian path.

Triple Points of Brownian Paths in 3-space

In (3), some of us proved that Brownian paths in n-space have double points with probability 1 if rz = 2 or 3; but, for n > 4, there are no double points with probability 1. The question naturally arises as to whether or not Brownian paths in m-space (n = 2 or 3) have triple points. The case of paths in the plane is settled by (a), where it is shown that, with probability 1, Brownian paths in t...

Sharply $(n-2)$-transitive Sets of Permutations

Let $S_n$ be the symmetric group on the set $[n]={1, 2, ldots, n}$. For $gin S_n$ let $fix(g)$ denote the number of fixed points of $g$. A subset $S$ of $S_n$ is called $t$-emph{transitive} if for any two $t$-tuples $(x_1,x_2,ldots,x_t)$ and $(y_1,y_2,ldots ,y_t)$ of distinct elements of $[n]$, there exists $gin S$ such that $x_{i}^g=y_{i}$ for any $1leq ileq t$ and additionally $S$ is called e...

A new approach for assessing stability of rock slopes considering centroids of weak zones

The intersection lines between discontinuity surfaces and their intersection points on the visible surfaces of any engineering structure may be the instability indicators. This paper describes a new approach to modelling the intersecting lines and points that would provide the first evaluation of any instability in an engineering structure characterized by the failure modes. In this work, the i...

Creating Full Envelopment in Data Envelopment Analysis with Variable Returns to Scale Technology

In this paper, weak defining hyperplanes and the anchor points in DEA, as an important subset of the set of extreme efficient points of the Production Possibility Set (PPS), are used to construct unobserved DMUs and in the long run to improve the envelopment of all observed DMUs. There has been a surge of articles on improving envelopment in recent years. What has been done first is in Constant...
