Manually simulating Poisson Process in R

The following problem tells us to generate a Poisson process step by step from $\rho$ (inter-arrival time), and $\tau$ (arrival time). One of the theoretical results presented in the lectures g …

Compute the Limiting Distribution

Consider the transition matrix $ P = \begin{bmatrix} 1-p&p\\ q&1-q \end{bmatrix} $ for general $2$-state Markov Chain $(0 \le p, q\le 1)$. Find the limiting distribution (if …

Expectation of arrival times

Let $(N_t)_t$ be a Poisson process with parameter λ = 2. By $τ_k$ denote the time of the k-th arrival (k = 1, 2, . . .), and by $ρ_k = τ_k −τ_{k−1}$ - the interarrival time between the (k−1)th and …
