The Probability of Generating a Classical Group
نویسنده
چکیده
In [KL] it is provcd that the probability of two randomly chosen elements of a finite dassical simple group G actually generating G tends to 1 as lei increases. If gEe, let Pu(g) be the probability that, if h is chosen randomly in G, then (g, h) IG. Let PG : = ma..x{Pu(g) I 9 E e#}. In [KL, Conjecture 2] it is suggested that a stronger result might hold: Pc ---4 0 as IGI ---4 00 for simple classical groups G. In this paper we investigate this question. It turns out that there is an interesting dichotomy here: while the answer is positiw~ whcn the defining dimension is fixed and the field size increases, this is not so

MODELLING AND ANALYSIS OF A DISCRETE-TIME PRIORITY QUEUING COMPUTER NETWORK WITH PRIORITY JUMPS USING PROBABILITY GENERATING FUNCTIONS
Priority queues have a great importance in the study of computer communication networks in which different types of traffic require different quality of service standards. The discrete-time non-preemptive priority queuing model with priority jumps is proposed in this paper. On the basis of probability generating functions mean system contents and mean queuing delay characteristics are obtained....
متن کاملProbability Generating Functions for Sattolo’s Algorithm
In 1986 S. Sattolo introduced a simple algorithm for uniform random generation of cyclic permutations on a fixed number of symbols. Recently, H. Prodinger analysed two important random variables associated with the algorithm, and found their mean and variance. H. Mahmoud extended Prodinger’s analysis by finding limit laws for the same two random variables.The present article, starting from the ...
متن کاملFractional Probability Measure and Its Properties
Based on recent studies by Guy Jumarie [1] which defines probability density of fractional order and fractional moments by using fractional calculus (fractional derivatives and fractional integration), this study expands the concept of probability density of fractional order by defining the fractional probability measure, which leads to a fractional probability theory parallel to the classical ...
متن کاملTransient Solution of an M/M/1 Variant Working Vacation Queue with Balking
This paper presents the transient solution of a variant working vacation queue with balking. Customers arrive according to a Poisson process and decide to join the queue with probability $b$ or balk with $bar{b} = 1-b$. As soon as the system becomes empty, the server takes working vacation. The service times during regular busy period and working vacation period, and vacation times are assumed ...
