Long Term Behavior of Markov Systems Sample Space and Events An experiment is an occurrence whose result, or outcome is uncertain. The set of all possible outcomes is called the sample space for the experiment. Given a sample space S, an event E is a subset of S. The outcomes in E are called the favorable outcomes. We say that E occurs in a particular experiment if the outcome of that experiment is one of the elements of E, that is, if the outcome of the experiment is favorable.

Outcomes: Sample Space: An Event: Here is an experiment that simulates tossing three fair distinguishable coins. To run the experiment, press the "Toss Coins" button and record the occurrences of heads and tails. The sample space is the set of eight possible outcomes: Let E be the event that heads comes up at least twice.

Other Participant Teams Stochastic Analysis and its Applications The European Union TMR Programme Project ERBF MRX CT 960075A Young researchers Rules for application Sept 2001 A position in Oxford Stochastic Analysis and its applications is a project which aims to develop an improved mathematical understanding of random systems and at the same time provide training and research opportunities for young researchers. It draws on the expertise of scientists in 6 European countries and has employed at least 20 young researchers. Feature: Women in the Stochastic Analysis Network Top Next (Project Overview) Introduction The European Union programme Training and Mobility in Research has selected a modest number of projects where it provides networking resources to assist teams of scientists to work together towards a common goal. In addition, it enables the employment of young researchers (approximately one for each team) to help push forward the science in the project. By working with key workers in their field, these very able young workers should enhance their own research, and so strengthen the European Science base for the next generation. These young scientists have to be European and must come from outside the EU country where they are appointed. This Internet site provides information about one of the funded projects - the scientists in this project are mathematicians and they work in an area of mathematics known as

132. Euchre Probabilities Determines the probabilities of various card combinations. http://www.xspace.com/bram/new/euchre.html

Ever wonder what the probability of certain scenarios are in the game of Euchre? Euchre is a trump game played with 24 cards (9 through Ace.) 5 cards are dealt to each player leaving a kitty of 4 cards. The top card is flipped over and is called the upcard . The upcard is important because everyone must reject the upcard as the trump suit before bidding on an alternate trump suit. Well here are your answers: P n P 6-n ... P What is the probability of getting exactly Choose cards of the same suit as the upcard? But keep in mind that there are four players. So the expected number of occurrences per hand is 4 times this value. What this means is that if there is a 30.312% probability that you will get 2 cards suited to the upcard, then an average hand will see 1.21 players have exactly 2 cards suited to the upcard. The following averages would be expected per hand (also assuming 12 hands per game): 1.69 players will have 1 card suited to the upcard (every 0.59 hands or 20 times per game) 1.21 players will have 2 cards suited to the upcard (every 0.83 hands or 14 times per game) 0.32 players will have 3 cards suited to the upcard (every 3.10 hands or 3.88 times per game)

ABOUT: Introduction History Related areas Subfields POINTERS: Texts Software Web links Selected topics here 28: Measure and integration Introduction Measure theory and integration is the study of lengths, surface area, and volumes in general spaces. This is a critical feature of a full development of integration theory; moreover, it provides the basic framework for probability theory. Measure theory is a meeting place between the tame applicability of real functions and the wild possibilities of set theory. This is the setting of fractals. History Applications and related fields For numerical integration of real functions see Numerical Analysis Treated here are measure theory both abstractly and on the real line. For measure theory and analysis on Lie groups, see 43-XX. For measure and integration on infinite-dimensional vector spaces see 46-XX and 47-XX. The Borel sets and related families are constructed as a part of "descriptive" set theory (now in section 03E). Chaotic attractors are treated in 37: Dynamical Systems ; these may lead to fractal sets.

Home Submission Program Schedule Speaker Index ... Contact Us After the meetings in Flint (1995) Winnipeg (1998) , Leuven (2000), and Adelaide (2002) , the fifth edition of the international conference on Matrix Analytic Methods (MAM5) will be organized by the University of Pisa in June of 2005. The conference is held at the Department of Mathematics in Largo Bruno Pontecorvo, 5 (former Via Buonarroti, 2), Pisa. The conference will provide an international forum for: presenting recent results on theory, algorithms and applications concerning matrix-analytic methods in stochastic models; discussing methodologies and the related algorithmic analysis; improving collaborations among researchers in applied probability, engineering and numerical analysis; tracing the current state of the art and the lines of the future research, pointing out the main topics of interest.
