Randomized Quasi-Monte Carlo (RQMC) methods provide unbiased estimators whose variance often converges at a faster rate than standard Monte Carlo as a functi...

We consider the set of graphs that can be constructed from a one-vertex graph by repeatedly adding a clique or a stable set linked to all or none of the vert...

Classical mean field games (MFG) have been concerned with large games amongst symmetrically influential agents with asymptotically negligible weight. In th...

We review the development of the concept of effective bandwidth from its origin in the planning and management of ATM networks. We start with the extension...
