Synopsis:

The aim of the course is to study general mathematical properties of one-dimensional stochastic particle systems whose elements are interacting. Especially, systems fulfilling a so-called balance property are analyzed. For such systems, statistical distributions of headways and multi-headways, interval frequencies, and associate statistical rigidity are examined.

Requirements:

Syllabus of lectures:

1. Selected asymptotic methods and special functions – rough leading, approximation of Laplacian integrals, saddle point approximation, Bessel function, Bessel equations, and Macdonald’s functions.

2. Special classes of densities and convolution - general definition of density and its description, balanced densities, moments and their properties, moment code, convolution and properties.

3. Laplace transform for the class of balanced densities - general introduction, properties, Laplace's decalogue, Lerch's theorem, theorem on the analyticallity of the balanced density image, theorem on inversion,

4. Stochastic one-dimensional particle systems and their description - headways, multi-headways, interval frequencies and their probabilistic description, balance particle systems, Poisson and quasi-Poisson systems, theory of statistical rigidity.

5. Dyson gases and their linkage to balance particle systems.
