Interacting Urn Schemes on Finite Ancestral Directed Acyclic Graphs

Antar Bandyopadhyay, Deborshi Das

We study interacting finite-color urn schemes on directed acyclic graphs, allowing the graph to be infinite. Each urn evolves through reinforcements driven by colors drawn from its…

Generalised De-Preferential Random Graphs

Antar Bandyopadhyay, Kunal Joshi

We consider some further generalizations of the novel random graph models as introduced by Bandyopadhyay and Sen \cite{BaSe2025} and find asymptotic for the degree of a fixed verte…

De-Preferential Attachment Random Graphs

Antar Bandyopadhyay, Subhabrata Sen

In this work we consider a growing random graph sequence where a new vertex is less likely to join to an existing vertex with high degree and more likely to join to a vertex with l…

Right-Most Position of a Last Progeny Modified Time Inhomogeneous Branching Random Walk

Antar Bandyopadhyay, Partha Pratim Ghosh

In this work, we consider a modification of time \emph{inhomogeneous} branching random walk, where the driving increment distribution changes over time macroscopically. Following B…

Right-Most Position of a Last Progeny Modified Branching Random Walk

Antar Bandyopadhyay, Partha Pratim Ghosh

In this work, we consider a modification of the usual Branching Random Walk (BRW), where we give certain independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) displacements to all the p…

Strong Convergence of Infinite Color Balanced Urns Under Uniform Ergodicity

Antar Bandyopadhyay, Svante Janson, Debleena Thacker

We consider the generalization of the Pólya urn scheme with possibly infinite many colors as introduced in \cite{Th-Thesis, BaTH2014, BaTh2016, BaTh2017}. For countable many colors…

Generalized Pólya Urn Schemes with Negative but Linear Reinforcements

Antar Bandyopadhyay, Gursharn Kaur

In this paper, we consider a new type of urn scheme, where the selection probabilities are proportional to a weight function, which is linear but decreasing in the proportion of ex…

A New Approach to Pólya Urn Schemes and Its Infinite Color Generalization

Antar Bandyopadhyay, Debleena Thacker

In this work we generalize Polya urn schemes with possibly infinitely many colors and extend the earlier models described in [4, 5, 7]. We provide a novel and unique approach of re…

Rate of Convergence and Large Deviation for the Infinite Color Pólya Urn Schemes

Antar Bandyopadhyay, Debleena Thacker

In this work we consider the \emph{infinite color urn model} associated with a bounded increment random walk on $\Zbold^d$. This model was first introduced by Bandyopadhyay and Tha…

Pólya Urn Schemes with Infinitely Many Colors

Antar Bandyopadhyay, Debleena Thacker

In this work we introduce a new type of urn model with infinite but countable many colors indexed by an appropriate infinite set. We mainly consider the indexing set of colors to b…

On the Nearest Neighbor Algorithm for Mean Field Traveling Salesman Problem

Antar Bandyopadhyay, Farkhondeh Sajadi

In this work we consider the mean field traveling salesman problem, where the intercity distances are taken to be i.i.d. with some distribution . This paper focus on the \emph{n…

Connectivity Threshold of Random Geometric Graphs with Cantor Distributed Vertices

Antar Bandyopadhyay, Farkhondeh Sajadi

For connectivity of \emph{random geometric graphs}, where there is no density for underlying distribution of the vertices, we consider i.i.d. \emph{Cantor} distributed points o…

On the Expected Total Number of Infections for Virus Spread on a Finite Network

Antar Bandyopadhyay, Farkhondeh Sajadi

In this paper we consider a simple virus infection spread model on a finite population of agents connected by some neighborhood structure. Given a graph on vertices, we…

On the One Dimensional Critical "Learning from Neighbours" Model

Antar Bandyopadhyay, Rahul Roy, Anish Sarkar

We consider a model of a discrete time "interacting particle system" on the integer line where infinitely many changes are allowed at each instance of time. We describe the model u…

On the Cluster Size Distribution for Percolation on Some General Graphs

Antar Bandyopadhyay, Jeffrey Steif, Adam Timar

We show that for any Cayley graph, the probability (at any ) that the cluster of the origin has size n decays at a well-defined exponential rate (possibly 0). For general graphs…
