In this paper, we introduce the effect of environment white noise in the spatial propagation process of brucellosis, and consider a stochastic two-patch brucellosis model. On one hand, we get existence and uniqueness of the global positive solution to the stochastic systems. On the other hand, by using the stochastic Lyapunov function theory we obtain a series of stochastic threshold dynamics results, incorporating extinction of the disease, existence of a unique ergodic stationary distribution of the positive solutions to systems in both patch 1 and patch 2. Furthermore, we find that stochastic perturbation is contribute to extinction of the disease to some extent by numerical simulations.","PeriodicalId":21970,"journal":{"name":"Stochastic Models","volume":"38 1","pages":"331 - 364"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2022-02-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42813706","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The company can generate excess electricity by releasing water from a reservoir and then sell it to the energy market. On the other hand, the company has an obligation to keep the reservoir level above a pre-determined level, which may require the company to purchase electricity in order to fulfill the customers’ power demand. The electricity price and reservoir level are both represented by diffusion processes. We refer to a one-factor diffusion model for electricity price, which is known to fit the data well. After applying Bellman dynamic programming principle, we derive the associated state-constrained Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB) equation to characterize the value function. Then we prove that the value function is the viscosity solution of the state-constrained HJB equation and it is unique in this constrained optimization problem.","PeriodicalId":21970,"journal":{"name":"Stochastic Models","volume":"38 1","pages":"288 - 307"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2022-02-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45242335","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Each customer joins the queue independently at an exponentially distributed time. Assuming further that the service times are independent and follow an exponential distribution, this system can be described as a two-dimensional Markov chain on a finite triangular region of the square lattice. We interpret the resulting random walk on as a Dyck path that is weighted according to some state-dependent transition probabilities that are constant along one axis, but are rather general otherwise. We untangle the resulting intricate combinatorial structure by introducing appropriate generating functions that exploit the recursive structure of the model. This allows us to derive an explicit expression for the probability mass function of the number of customers served in any busy period (equivalently, of the length of any excursion of the Dyck path above the diagonal) as a weighted sum with alternating sign over a certain subclass of Dyck paths.","PeriodicalId":21970,"journal":{"name":"Stochastic Models","volume":"38 1","pages":"268 - 287"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2022-01-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44982917","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
