Adaptive age replacement strategies based on nonparametric predictive inference (2004)
Journal Article
Coolen-Schrijner, P., & Coolen, F. (2004). Adaptive age replacement strategies based on nonparametric predictive inference. Journal of the Operational Research Society, 55(12), 1281-1297. https://doi.org/10.1057/palgrave.jors.2601764

We consider an age replacement problem using nonparametric predictive inference (NPI) for the lifetime of a future unit. Based on n observed failure times, NPI provides lower and upper bounds for the survival function for a future lifetime Xn+1, whic...

Discontinuity waves in type III thermoelasticity (2004)
Journal Article

The Cheeger constant of simply connected, solvable Lie groups (2004)
Journal Article
Peyerimhoff, N., & Samiou, E. (2004). The Cheeger constant of simply connected, solvable Lie groups. Proceedings of the American Mathematical Society, 132(5), 1525-1529

We show that the Cheeger isoperimetric constant of a solvable simply connected Lie group G with Lie algebra g is h(G) = max tr(ad(H)), where the maximum is taken over all vectors H in g with norm one.

Morphic heights and periodic points (2004)
Book Chapter
Einsiedler, M., Everest, G., & Ward, T. (2004). Morphic heights and periodic points. In D. Chudnovsky, G. Chudnovsky, & M. Nathanson (Eds.), Number theory : New York seminar 2003 (167-177). Springer Verlag

An approach to the calculation of local canonical morphic heights is described, motivated by the analogy between the classical height in Diophantine geometry and entropy in algebraic dynamics. We consider cases where the local morphic height is expre... Read More about Morphic heights and periodic points.
