The Global ETD Search service is a free service for researchers
to find electronic theses and dissertations. This service is
provided by the
Networked Digital Library of Theses and Dissertations.
Our metadata is collected from universities around the world. If you manage a university/consortium/country archive and want to be added, details can be found on the NDLTD website.

The asymptotic stability of stochastic kernel operatorsBrown, Thomas John 06 1900 (has links)
A stochastic operator is a positive linear contraction, P : L1 --+ L1,
such that
llPfII2 = llfll1 for f > 0. It is called asymptotically stable if the iterates pn f of
each density converge in the norm to a fixed density. Pf(x) = f K(x,y)f(y)dy,
where K( ·, y) is a density, defines a stochastic kernel operator. A general probabilistic/
deterministic model for biological systems is considered. This leads to the
LMT operator
P f(x) = Jo - Bx H(Q(>.(x)) - Q(y)) dy,
where -H'(x) = h(x) is a density. Several particular examples of cell cycle models
are examined. An operator overlaps supports iffor all densities f,g, pn f APng of 0
for some n. If the operator is partially kernel, has a positive invariant density and
overlaps supports, it is asymptotically stable. It is found that if h( x) > 0 for
x ~ xo ~ 0 and
["'" x"h(x) dx < liminf(Q(A(x))" - Q(x)") for a E (0, 1] lo x-oo
then P is asymptotically stable, and an opposite condition implies P is sweeping.
Many known results for cell cycle models follow from this. / Mathematical Science / M. Sc. (Mathematics)
