Le théorème de lebesgue sur la dérivabilité des fonctions à variation bornée

Dans ce mémoire, nous traiterons du théorème de Lebesgue, un des plus frappants et des plus importants de l'analyse mathématique ; à savoir qu'une fonction à variation bornée est dérivable presque partout. Le but de ce travail est de fournir, à part la démonstration souvent proposée dans les cours de la théorie de la mesure, d'autres démonstrations élaborées avec des outils mathématiques plus simples. Ma contribution a consisté essentiellement à détailler et à compléter ces démonstrations, puis à inclure la plupart des figures pour une meilleure lisibilité. Nous allons maintenant, pour ce théorème qui se présente sous d'autres variantes, en proposer l'historique et trois démonstrations différentes.

Modélisation bayésienne des changements aux niches écologiques causés par le réchauffement climatique

Cette thèse présente des méthodes de traitement de données de comptage en particulier et des données discrètes en général. Il s'inscrit dans le cadre d'un projet stratégique du CRNSG, nommé CC-Bio, dont l'objectif est d'évaluer l'impact des changements climatiques sur la répartition des espèces animales et végétales. Après une brève introduction aux notions de biogéographie et aux modèles linéaires mixtes généralisés aux chapitres 1 et 2 respectivement, ma thèse s'articulera autour de trois idées majeures. Premièrement, nous introduisons au chapitre 3 une nouvelle forme de distribution dont les composantes ont pour distributions marginales des lois de Poisson ou des lois de Skellam. Cette nouvelle spécification permet d'incorporer de l'information pertinente sur la nature des corrélations entre toutes les composantes. De plus, nous présentons certaines propriétés de ladite distribution. Contrairement à la distribution multidimensionnelle de Poisson qu'elle généralise, celle-ci permet de traiter les variables avec des corrélations positives et/ou négatives. Une simulation permet d'illustrer les méthodes d'estimation dans le cas bidimensionnel. Les résultats obtenus par les méthodes bayésiennes par les chaînes de Markov par Monte Carlo (CMMC) indiquent un biais relatif assez faible de moins de 5% pour les coefficients de régression des moyennes contrairement à ceux du terme de covariance qui semblent un peu plus volatils. Deuxièmement, le chapitre 4 présente une extension de la régression multidimensionnelle de Poisson avec des effets aléatoires ayant une densité gamma. En effet, conscients du fait que les données d'abondance des espèces présentent une forte dispersion, ce qui rendrait fallacieux les estimateurs et écarts types obtenus, nous privilégions une approche basée sur l'intégration par Monte Carlo grâce à l'échantillonnage préférentiel. L'approche demeure la même qu'au chapitre précédent, c'est-à-dire que l'idée est de simuler des variables latentes indépendantes et de se retrouver dans le cadre d'un modèle linéaire mixte généralisé (GLMM) conventionnel avec des effets aléatoires de densité gamma. Même si l'hypothèse d'une connaissance a priori des paramètres de dispersion semble trop forte, une analyse de sensibilité basée sur la qualité de l'ajustement permet de démontrer la robustesse de notre méthode. Troisièmement, dans le dernier chapitre, nous nous intéressons à la définition et à la construction d'une mesure de concordance donc de corrélation pour les données augmentées en zéro par la modélisation de copules gaussiennes. Contrairement au tau de Kendall dont les valeurs se situent dans un intervalle dont les bornes varient selon la fréquence d'observations d'égalité entre les paires, cette mesure a pour avantage de prendre ses valeurs sur (-1;1). Initialement introduite pour modéliser les corrélations entre des variables continues, son extension au cas discret implique certaines restrictions. En effet, la nouvelle mesure pourrait être interprétée comme la corrélation entre les variables aléatoires continues dont la discrétisation constitue nos observations discrètes non négatives. Deux méthodes d'estimation des modèles augmentés en zéro seront présentées dans les contextes fréquentiste et bayésien basées respectivement sur le maximum de vraisemblance et l'intégration de Gauss-Hermite. Enfin, une étude de simulation permet de montrer la robustesse et les limites de notre approche.

Analysis of Some Queueing Models Related To N-Policy: Operations Research

This study is about the analysis of some queueing models related to N-policy.The optimal value the queue size has to attain in order to turn on a single server, assuming that the policy is to turn on a single server when the queue size reaches a certain number, N, and turn him off when the system is empty.The operating policy is the usual N-policy, but with random N and in model 2, a system similar to the one described here.This study analyses “ Tandem queue with two servers”.Here assume that the first server is a specialized one.In a queueing system,under N-policy ,the server will be on vacation until N units accumulate for the first time after becoming idle.A modified version of the N-policy for an M│M│1 queueing system is considered here.The novel feature of this model is that a busy service unit prevents the access of new customers to servers further down the line.It is deals with a queueing model consisting of two servers connected in series with a finite intermediate waiting room of capacity k.Here assume that server I is a specialized server.For this model ,the steady state probability vector and the stability condition are obtained using matrix – geometric method.

Analysis of Some Stochastic Inventory Models with Pooling Retrial of Customers

The thesis deals with analysis of some Stochastic Inventory Models with Pooling/Retrial of Customers.. In the first model we analyze an (s,S) production Inventory system with retrial of customers. Arrival of customers from outside the system form a Poisson process. The inter production times are exponentially distributed with parameter µ. When inventory level reaches zero further arriving demands are sent to the orbit which has capacity M(<∞). Customers, who find the orbit full and inventory level at zero are lost to the system. Demands arising from the orbital customers are exponentially distributed with parameter γ. In the model-II we extend these results to perishable inventory system assuming that the life-time of each item follows exponential with parameter θ. The study deals with an (s,S) production inventory with service times and retrial of unsatisfied customers. Primary demands occur according to a Markovian Arrival Process(MAP). Consider an (s,S)-retrial inventory with service time in which primary demands occur according to a Batch Markovian Arrival Process (BMAP). The inventory is controlled by the (s,S) policy and (s,S) inventory system with service time. Primary demands occur according to Poissson process with parameter λ. The study concentrates two models. In the first model we analyze an (s,S) Inventory system with postponed demands where arrivals of demands form a Poisson process. In the second model, we extend our results to perishable inventory system assuming that the life-time of each item follows exponential distribution with parameter θ. Also it is assumed that when inventory level is zero the arriving demands choose to enter the pool with probability β and with complementary probability (1- β) it is lost for ever. Finally it analyze an (s,S) production inventory system with switching time. A lot of work is reported under the assumption that the switching time is negligible but this is not the case for several real life situation.

Analysis of Some Single and Two Commodity Inventory Problems

This thesis is devoted to the study of some stochastic models in inventories. An inventory system is a facility at which items of materials are stocked. In order to promote smooth and efficient running of business, and to provide adequate service to the customers, an inventory materials is essential for any enterprise. When uncertainty is present, inventories are used as a protection against risk of stock out. It is advantageous to procure the item before it is needed at a lower marginal cost. Again, by bulk purchasing, the advantage of price discounts can be availed. All these contribute to the formation of inventory. Maintaining inventories is a major expenditure for any organization. For each inventory, the fundamental question is how much new stock should be ordered and when should the orders are replaced. In the present study, considered several models for single and two commodity stochastic inventory problems. The thesis discusses two models. In the first model, examined the case in which the time elapsed between two consecutive demand points are independent and identically distributed with common distribution function F(.) with mean  (assumed finite) and in which demand magnitude depends only on the time elapsed since the previous demand epoch. The time between disasters has an exponential distribution with parameter . In Model II, the inter arrival time of disasters have general distribution (F.) with mean  ( ) and the quantity destructed depends on the time elapsed between disasters. Demands form compound poison processes with inter arrival times of demands having mean 1/. It deals with linearly correlated bulk demand two Commodity inventory problem, where each arrival demands a random number of items of each commodity C1 and C2, the maximum quantity demanded being a (< S1) and b(

This thesis is a study of discrete nonlinear systems represented by one dimensional mappings.As one dimensional interative maps represent Poincarre sections of higher dimensional flows,they offer a convenient means to understand the dynamical evolution of many physical systems.It highlighting the basic ideas of deterministic chaos.Qualitative and quantitative measures for the detection and characterization of chaos in nonlinear systems are discussed.Some simple mathematical models exhibiting chaos are presented.The bifurcation scenario and the possible routes to chaos are explained.It present the results of the numerical computational of the Lyapunov exponents (λ) of one dimensional maps.This thesis focuses on the results obtained by our investigations on combinations maps,scaling behaviour of the Lyapunov characteristic exponents of one dimensional maps and the nature of bifurcations in a discontinous logistic map.It gives a review of the major routes to chaos in dissipative systems,namely, Period-doubling ,Intermittency and Crises.This study gives a theoretical understanding of the route to chaos in discontinous systems.A detailed analysis of the dynamics of a discontinous logistic map is carried out, both analytically and numerically ,to understand the route it follows to chaos.The present analysis deals only with the case of the discontinuity parameter applied to the right half of the interval of mapping.A detailed analysis for the n –furcations of various periodicities can be made and a more general theory for the map with discontinuities applied at different positions can be on a similar footing

Spectral Analysis of Bounded Self-adjoint operators - A Linear Algebraic Approach

This thesis Entitled Spectral theory of bounded self-adjoint operators -A linear algebraic approach.The main results of the thesis can be classified as three different approaches to the spectral approximation problems. The truncation method and its perturbed versions are part of the classical linear algebraic approach to the subject. The usage of block Toeplitz-Laurent operators and the matrix valued symbols is considered as a particular example where the linear algebraic techniques are effective in simplifying problems in inverse spectral theory. The abstract approach to the spectral approximation problems via pre-conditioners and Korovkin-type theorems is an attempt to make the computations involved, well conditioned. However, in all these approaches, linear algebra comes as the central object. The objective of this study is to discuss the linear algebraic techniques in the spectral theory of bounded self-adjoint operators on a separable Hilbert space. The usage of truncation method in approximating the bounds of essential spectrum and the discrete spectral values outside these bounds is well known. The spectral gap prediction and related results was proved in the second chapter. The discrete versions of Borg-type theorems, proved in the third chapter, partly overlap with some known results in operator theory. The pure linear algebraic approach is the main novelty of the results proved here.

Analysis discrete function theory

There is a recent trend to describe physical phenomena without the use of infinitesimals or infinites. This has been accomplished replacing differential calculus by the finite difference theory. Discrete function theory was first introduced in l94l. This theory is concerned with a study of functions defined on a discrete set of points in the complex plane. The theory was extensively developed for functions defined on a Gaussian lattice. In 1972 a very suitable lattice H: {Ci qmxO,I qnyo), X0) 0, X3) 0, O < q < l, m, n 5 Z} was found and discrete analytic function theory was developed. Very recently some work has been done in discrete monodiffric function theory for functions defined on H. The theory of pseudoanalytic functions is a generalisation of the theory of analytic functions. When the generator becomes the identity, ie., (l, i) the theory of pseudoanalytic functions reduces to the theory of analytic functions. Theugh the theory of pseudoanalytic functions plays an important role in analysis, no discrete theory is available in literature. This thesis is an attempt in that direction. A discrete pseudoanalytic theory is derived for functions defined on H.

Stochastic processes and their applications semi-markov analysis of some inventory and queuing problems

This thesis analyses certain problems in Inventories and Queues. There are many situations in real-life where we encounter models as described in this thesis. It analyses in depth various models which can be applied to production, storag¢, telephone traffic, road traffic, economics, business administration, serving of customers, operations of particle counters and others. Certain models described here is not a complete representation of the true situation in all its complexity, but a simplified version amenable to analysis. While discussing the models, we show how a dependence structure can be suitably introduced in some problems of Inventories and Queues. Continuous review, single commodity inventory systems with Markov dependence structure introduced in the demand quantities, replenishment quantities and reordering levels are considered separately. Lead time is assumed to be zero in these models. An inventory model involving random lead time is also considered (Chapter-4). Further finite capacity single server queueing systems with single/bulk arrival, single/bulk services are also discussed. In some models the server is assumed to go on vacation (Chapters 7 and 8). In chapters 5 and 6 a sort of dependence is introduced in the service pattern in some queuing models.

Probability Theory. Stochastic Processes And Their Applications Probabilistic Analysis Of Some Queueing And Inventory Models

In this thesis we attempt to make a probabilistic analysis of some physically realizable, though complex, storage and queueing models. It is essentially a mathematical study of the stochastic processes underlying these models. Our aim is to have an improved understanding of the behaviour of such models, that may widen their applicability. Different inventory systems with randon1 lead times, vacation to the server, bulk demands, varying ordering levels, etc. are considered. Also we study some finite and infinite capacity queueing systems with bulk service and vacation to the server and obtain the transient solution in certain cases. Each chapter in the thesis is provided with self introduction and some important references

Analysis of Some Stochastic Inventory Models with Pooling/ Retrial of Customers

In this thesis we have presented several inventory models of utility. Of these inventory with retrial of unsatisfied demands and inventory with postponed work are quite recently introduced concepts, the latt~~ being introduced for the first time. Inventory with service time is relatively new with a handful of research work reported. The di lficuity encoLlntered in inventory with service, unlike the queueing process, is that even the simplest case needs a 2-dimensional process for its description. Only in certain specific cases we can introduce generating function • to solve for the system state distribution. However numerical procedures can be developed for solving these problem.

Characterizations of Life Distributions Using Conditional Expectations of Doubly (Interval) Truncated Random Variables

In this article, we study reliability measures such as geometric vitality function and conditional Shannon’s measures of uncertainty proposed by Ebrahimi (1996) and Sankaran and Gupta (1999), respectively, for the doubly (interval) truncated random variables. In survival analysis and reliability engineering, these measures play a significant role in studying the various characteristics of a system/component when it fails between two time points. The interrelationships among these uncertainty measures for various distributions are derived and proved characterization theorems arising out of them

Statistical Analysis of Diabetes Mellitus

Diabetes mellitus is a disease where the glucosis-content of the blood does not automatically decrease to a ”normal” value between 70 mg/dl and 120 mg/dl (3,89 mmol/l and 6,67 mmol/l) between perhaps one hour (or two hours) after eating. Several instruments can be used to arrive at a relative low increase of the glucosis-content. Besides drugs (oral antidiabetica, insulin) the blood-sugar content can mainly be influenced by (i) eating, i.e., consumption of the right amount of food at the right time (ii) physical training (walking, cycling, swimming). In a recent paper the author has performed a regression analysis on the influence of eating during the night. The result was that one ”bread-unit” (12g carbon-hydrats) increases the blood-sugar by about 50 mg/dl, while one hour after eating the blood-sugar decreases by about 10 mg/dl per hour. By applying this result-assuming its correctness - it is easy to eat the right amount during the night and to arrive at a fastening blood-sugar (glucosis-content) in the morning of about 100 mg/dl (5,56 mmol/l). In this paper we try to incorporate some physical exercise into the model.
