  1. 1. Game theory and applications

    Författare :Carl-Joar Karlsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; non-cooperative game theory; prisoner s dilemma; disease; distribution; compartmental model; epidemiological model; game theory; equilibrium strategy;

    Sammanfattning : Individual-level interactions and decisions spread though populations and change the collective-level dynamics in an intricate way. Nevertheless, game theory is well suited for the unification of these viewpoints. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Markov Chains, Renewal, Branching and Coalescent Processes : Four Topics in Probability Theory

    Författare :Andreas Nordvall Lagerås; Thomas Höglund; Ingemar Kaj; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Mathematical statistics; Matematisk statistik; matematisk statistik; Mathematical Statistics;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis consists of four papers.In paper 1, we prove central limit theorems for Markov chains under (local) contraction conditions. As a corollary we obtain a central limit theorem for Markov chains associated with iterated function systems with contractive maps and place-dependent Dini-continuous probabilities. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Quantum State Analysis : Probability theory as logic in Quantum mechanics

    Författare :Anders Månsson; Anders Karlsson; Gunnar Björk; Ingemar Bengtsson; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; quantum; quantum mechanics; state; state analysis; probability; probability theory; logic; Photonics; Fotonik;

    Sammanfattning : Quantum mechanics is basically a mathematical recipe on how to construct physical models. Historically its origin and main domain of application has been in the microscopic regime, although it strictly seen constitutes a general mathematical framework not limited to this regime. LÄS MER

  5. 4. On unequal probability sampling designs

    Författare :Anton Grafström; Lennart Bondesson; Sara De Luna; Imbi Traat; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; conditional Poisson sampling; correlated Poisson sampling; entropy; extended Sampford sampling; Horvitz-Thompson estimator; inclusion probabilities; list-sequential sampling; non-rejective implementation; Pareto sampling; Poisson sampling; probability functions; ratio estimator; real-time sampling; repeated Poisson sampling; Sampford sampling; sampling designs; splitting method; unequal probability sampling; Mathematical statistics; Matematisk statistik; Mathematical Statistics; matematisk statistik;

    Sammanfattning : The main objective in sampling is to select a sample from a population in order to estimate some unknown population parameter, usually a total or a mean of some interesting variable. When the units in the population do not have the same probability of being included in a sample, it is called unequal probability sampling. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Contributions to the theory of unequal probability sampling

    Författare :Anders Lundquist; Lennart Bondesson; Aleksandras Plikusas; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; balanced sampling; conditional Poisson sampling; inclusion probabilities; maximum entropy; Markov chain Monte Carlo; Pareto sampling; Sampford sampling; unequal probability sampling.; Mathematical statistics; Matematisk statistik; Mathematical Statistics; matematisk statistik;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis consists of five papers related to the theory of unequal probability sampling from a finite population. Generally, it is assumed that we wish to make modelassisted inference, i.e. the inclusion probability for each unit in the population is prescribed before the sample is selected. LÄS MER
