Olsder, G.J. (author)Dynamic two-person games are considered, in which the roles of the players are hierarchical. One player behaves as a leader, the other one as a follower. Such games are named after Stackelberg. In the current paper, a special type of such games is considered, known in the literature as inverse Stackelberg games. In such games, the leader...journal article 2009

Plomp, D.J. (author)The research is done at Hewitt Associates, Amsterdam. At Hewitt I investigated the consequences of longevity risk. Using the well known model of Lee-Carter, a prognosis of future life-expectancy in the Netherlands is constructed. Then the financial consequences for Dutch pension funds are examined, in particular when its participants become...master thesis 2009

Jongbloed, G. (author), Van der Meulen, F.H. (author)We consider two nonparametric procedures for estimating a concave distribution function based on data corrupted with additive noise generated by a bounded decreasing density on (0, ?). For the maximum likelihood (ML) estimator and least squares (LS) estimator, we state qualitative properties, prove consistency and propose a computational...journal article 2009

Haase, M. (author)Let-iA be the generator of a C-0-group (U(s))(s is an element of R) on a Banach space X and omega > theta(U), the group type of U. We prove a transference principle that allows to estimate parallel to f(A)parallel to in terms of the L-p(R; X)-Fourier multiplier norm of f(. +/- i omega). If X is a Hilbert space this yields new proofs of important...journal article 2009

Stankova, K. (author)This thesis studies the so-called inverse Stackelberg games, that are new in the world of game theory, their properties, and their applications in the optimal toll design problem, the energy markets liberalization problem, and in the theory of incentives.doctoral thesis 2009

Van Delft, G. (author), El Serafy, G.Y. (author), Heemink, A.W. (author)Rainfall-runoff models play a very important role in flood forecasting. However, these models contain large uncertainties caused by errors in both the model itself and the input data. Data assimilation techniques are being used to reduce these uncertainties. The ensemble Kalman filter (EnKF) and the particle filter (PF) both have their own...journal article 2009

Van der Hofstad, R. (author), Hooghiemstra, G. (author)We survey the recent work on phase transition and distances in various random graph models with general degree sequences. We focus on inhomogeneous random graphs, the configuration model, and affine preferential attachment models, and pay special attention to the setting where these random graphs have a power-law degree sequence. This means that...journal article 2008

Iosifescu, M. (author), Kraaikamp, C. (author)Metric properties of Denjoy's canonical continued fraction expansion are studied, and the natural extension of the underlying ergodic system is given. This natural extension is used to give simple proofs of results on mediant convergents obtained by W. Bosma in 1990.journal article 2008

Hytönen, T. (author), Van Neerven, J. (author), Portal, P. (author)We study conical square function estimates for Banach-valued functions and introduce a vector-valued analogue of the Coifman-Meyer-Stein tent spaces. Following recent work of Auscher-M(c)Intosh-Russ, the tent spaces in turn are used to construct a scale of vector-valued Hardy spaces associated with a given bisectorial operator A with certain off...journal article 2008

Van Wijngaarden-van Rossum, W.K. (author)Biogrout is a new method to strengthen the soil. Some applications are: soil stabilization prior to tunnelling and prevention of liquefaction of the subsoil resulting from earthquakes. Biogrout is based on microbial induced carbonate precipitation. Bacteria and reactants are flushed through the soil, resulting in calcium carbonate precipitation...master thesis 2008

Walfisch, D. (author), Ryan, J.K. (author), Kirby, R.M. (author), Haimes, R. (author)The discontinuous Galerkin (DG) method continues to maintain heightened levels of interest within the simulation community because of the discretization flexibility it provides. One of the fundamental properties of the DG methodology and arguably its most powerful property is the ability to combine high-order discretizations on an inter-element...journal article 2008

Van den Esker, H. (author), Van der Hofstad, R. (author), Hooghiemstra, G. (author)We generalize the asymptotic behavior of the graph distance between two uniformly chosen nodes in the configuration model to a wide class of random graphs. Among others, this class contains the Poissonian random graph, the expected degree random graph and the generalized random graph (including the classical Erdos-Renyi graph). In the paper we...journal article 2008

El Serafy, G.Y.H. (author), Mynett, A.E. (author)Numerical models of a water system are always based on assumptions and simplifications that may result in errors in the model's predictions. Such errors can be reduced through the use of data assimilation and thus can significantly improve the success rate of the predictions and operational forecasts. The ensemble Kalman filter (EnKF) is a...journal article 2008

Van Horssen, W.T. (author), Ter Brake, M.C. (author)In the classical multiple scales perturbation method for ordinary difference equations (O Delta Es) as developed in 1977 by Hoppensteadt and Miranker, difference equations (describing the slow dynamics of the problem) are replaced at a certain moment in the perturbation procedure by ordinary differential equations (ODEs). Taking into account the...journal article 2008

Groeneboom, P. (author), Maathuis, M.H. (author), Wellner, J.A. (author)We study nonparametric estimation of the sub-distribution functions for current status data with competing risks. Our main interest is in the nonparametric maximum likelihood estimator (MLE), and for comparison we also consider a simpler “naive estimator.” Both types of estimators were studied by Jewell, van der Laan and Henneman [Biometrika ...journal article 2008
