We prove a general principle in Random Fixed Point Theory by introducing a condition named P which was inspired by some of Petryshyn's work, and then we apply our result to prove some random fixed points theorems, including generalizations of some Bharucha-Reid theorems.
The standard Hawkes process is constructed from a homogeneous Poisson process and uses the same exciting function for different generations of offspring. We propose an extension of this process by considering different exciting functions. This consideration may be important in a number of fields; e.g. in seismology, where main shocks produce aftershocks with possibly different intensities. The main results are devoted to the asymptotic behavior of this extension of the Hawkes process. Indeed, a law of large numbers and a central limit theorem are stated. These results allow us to analyze the asymptotic behavior of the process when unpredictable marks are considered.
a b s t r a c tA general stochastic model for the spread of an epidemic developing in a closed population is introduced. Each model consisting of a discrete-time Markov chain involves a deterministic counterpart represented by an ordinary differential equation. Our framework involves various epidemic models such as a stochastic version of the Kermack and McKendrick model and the SIS epidemic model. We prove the asymptotic consistency of the stochastic model regarding a deterministic model; this means that for a large population both modelings are similar. Moreover, a Central Limit Theorem for the fluctuations of the stochastic modeling regarding the deterministic model is also proved.
In this article we state conditions under which the existence of deterministic coincidence points of two multivalued random functions implies the existence of random coincidence points. Moreover, two existence results of measurable selections are obtained for the intersection of the multivalued function evaluated at the random coincidence point. Our results extend or improve some theorems in the literature.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
