In this paper, we study two models of resource allocation games: the classical load-balancing game and its new variant involving resource activation costs. The resources we consider are identical and the social costs of the games are utilitarian, which are the average of all individual players' costs.

Stochastic multifactor modeling of spot electricity prices Hayfavi, Azize (2014-03-15) In this paper, a stochastic multifactor model is proposed for modeling of the daily spot market electricity prices. Stochastic part of the model is composed of three jump processes and a Brownian motion where two of the jump processes are assumed to be mean reverting with different mean reversion rates. The multistep algorithm proposed for model estimation utilizes an iterative threshold function (constructed on GARCH(1,1) volatility estimates) in separation of the jumps. The factor model is applied to Turk...
Reliability-Based Stability Analysis of Rock Slopes Using Numerical Analysis and Response Surface Method Dadashzadeh, N.; Düzgün, Hafize Şebnem; Yesiloglu-Gultekin, N. (2017-08-01) While advanced numerical techniques in slope stability analysis are successfully used in deterministic studies, they have so far found limited use in probabilistic analyses due to their high computation cost. The first-order reliability method (FORM) is one of the most efficient probabilistic techniques to perform probabilistic stability analysis by considering the associated uncertainties in the analysis parameters. However, it is not possible to directly use FORM in numerical slope stability evaluations a...
Discrete linear Hamiltonian systems: Lyapunov type inequalities, stability and disconjugacy criteria Zafer, Ağacık (2012-12-15) In this paper, we first establish new Lyapunov type inequalities for discrete planar linear Hamiltonian systems. Next, by making use of the inequalities, we derive stability and disconjugacy criteria. Stability criteria are obtained with the help of the Floquet theory, so the system is assumed to be periodic in that case.
Optimum design and operation of 'a pump-piping-storage system' Kaplan, H; Seireg, A; Dölen, Melik (Inderscience Publishers, 2001-01-01) The study reported in this paper is undertaken to develop a computer simulation and an optimum design and operation strategy for a general storage system. The influence of various design parameters on the total operation cost of the system for a general delivery regime is also studied.
Quantum aspects of the noncommutative Sine-Gordon model Kürkcüoğlu, Seçkin (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2007-09-01) In this paper, we first use semi-classical methods to study quantum field theoretical aspects of the integrable noncommutative sine-Gordon model proposed in [hep-th/0406065]. In particular, we examine the fluctuations at quadratic order around the static kink solution using the background field method. We derive equations of motion for the fluctuations and argue that at O(θ2) the spectrum of fluctuations remains essentially the same as that of the corresponding commutative theory. We compute the one-loop tw...
