Crossing Probabilities

A natural requirement to impose upon the life distribution of a component is that after inspection at some randomly chosen time to check whether it is still functioning, its life distribution from the time of checking should be bounded below by some specified distribution which may be defined by external considerations. Furthermore, the life distribution should ideally be minimal in the partial ordering obtained from the conditional probabilities. We prove that these specifications provide an apparently new characterization of the DFRA class of life distributions with a corresponding result for IFRA distributions. These results may be transferred, using Slepian's lemma, to obtain bounds for the boundary crossing probabilities of a stationary Gaussian process.

AbstractWe are concerned here with an analysis of the nonlinear irrotational gravity water wave problem with a free surface over a water flow bounded below by a flat bed. We employ a new formulation involving an expression (called flow force) which contains pressure terms, thus having the potential to handle intricate surface dynamic boundary conditions. The proposed formulation neither requires the graph assumption of the free surface nor does require the absence of stagnation points. By way of this alternative approach we prove the existence of a local curve of solutions to the water wave problem with fixed flow force and more relaxed assumptions.

AbstractHiggins [‘The Mitsch order on a semigroup’, Semigroup Forum 49 (1994), 261–266] showed that the natural partial orders on a semigroup and its regular subsemigroups coincide. This is why we are interested in the study of the natural partial order on nonregular semigroups. Of particular interest are the nonregular semigroups of linear transformations with lower bounds on the nullity or the co-rank. In this paper, we determine when they exist, characterise the natural partial order on these nonregular semigroups and consider questions of compatibility, minimality and maximality. In addition, we provide many examples associated with our results.

Asymptotic Forms

The possibility of long waves in a rotating ocean being trapped along a straight discontinuity in depth was demonstrated in a recent paper (Longuet-Higgins 1968). The analysis is now extended to the situation where the depth varies continuously, in a zone separating two regions of different depths. The trapping of waves in the transition zone is investigated, taking full account of the horizontal divergence of the motion.If the profile of the depth is assumed to be monotonic, then it is shown that the trapped waves always travel along the transition zone with the shallower water to their right in the northern hemisphere and to their left in the southern hemisphere. The wave period must always exceed a pendulum-day. The period is also bounded below by a quantity depending inversely on the maximum bottom gradient.By allowing the width W of the transition zone to vary, asymptotic forms for the trapped modes are obtained, both as W → 0 and as W → ∞. In the limit as W → 0 the depth becomes discontinuous, and it is shown that the lowest mode then becomes a double Kelvin wave (Longuet-Higgins 1968) propagated along the discontinuity. The periods of the higher modes, on the other hand, all tend to infinity; these modes become steady currents.Numerical calculations of the trapped modes are presented for two different laws of depth in the transition zone. It is found that as W → 0 the lowest mode is insensitive to the form of the depth profile. Higher modes depend on the details of the profile. Hence the lowest mode is the most likely to be observed in the real ocean.The dispersion relation is also investigated. It is shown that the group-velocity of all modes must change sign at some point in the range of wave-numbers, if the divergence is taken into account. When the divergence was neglected the lowest mode appeared to be exceptional, in that the group-velocity was always in the same direction. This anomaly is now removed.

AbstractThis paper shows that for the Moore spectrum MG associated with any abelian group G, and for any positive integer n, the order of the Postnikov k-invariant kn+1(MG) is equal to the exponent of the homotopy group πnMG. In the case of the sphere spectrum S, this implies that the exponents of the homotopy groups of S provide a universal estimate for the exponent of the kernel of the stable Hurewicz homomorphism hn: πnX → En(X) for the homology theory E*(—) corresponding to any connective ring spectrum E such that π0E is torsion-free and for any bounded below spectrum X. Moreover, an upper bound for the exponent of the cokernel of the generalized Hurewicz homomorphism hn: En(X) → Hn(X; π0E), induced by the 0-th Postnikov section of E, is obtained for any connective spectrum E. An application of these results enables us to approximate in a universal way both kernel and cokernel of the unstable Hurewicz homomorphism between the algebraic K-theory of any ring and the ordinary integral homology of its linear group.

<abstract><p>The main goal of this article is first to introduce a new generalization of the fractional integral operators with a certain modified Mittag-Leffler kernel and then investigate the Chebyshev inequality via this general family of fractional integral operators. We improve our results and we investigate the Chebyshev inequality for more than two functions. We also derive some inequalities of this type for functions whose derivatives are bounded above and bounded below. In addition, we establish an estimate for the Chebyshev functional by using the new fractional integral operators. Finally, we find similar inequalities for some specialized fractional integrals keeping some of the earlier results in view.</p></abstract>

The Antimonio Formation furnishes a record of sedimentation across the Triassic–Jurassic system boundary and is one of a few stratigraphic sections globally that preserves latest Triassic to Hettangian ammonoids in stratigraphic succession. The boundary falls near the middle of the formation, within a 155 m thick stratigraphic section, which is divided into five distinct sedimentary packages. The laminated shales and siltstones in the middle of package 4 represent deposition in an anoxic or disaerobic setting. Although shales of package 4 themselves are poorly fossiliferous, they are bounded below and above by Triassic and Jurassic biotas, respectively. The Triassic–Jurassic system boundary should fall within or stratigraphically close to the laminated beds. The transgressive–regressive signature from the Antimonio Formation corresponds closely to that of the Gabbs and Sunrise formations in Nevada and jointly shows eustatic regressive events at or near the beginning of the latest Triassic Crickmayi Zone and another near the top of the Hettangian. The beds from package 4 indicate a transgression closely associated with the Triassic–Jurassic system boundary.
