Limiting behavior of mixed coherent systems with Lévy-frailty Marshall-Olkin failure times
Guido Lagos, Javiera Barrera, Pablo Romero +1
In this paper we show a limit result for the reliability function of a system -- that is, the probability that the whole system is still operational after a certain given time -- w…
Exact reliability optimization for series-parallel graphs using convex envelopes
Javiera Barrera, Eduardo Moreno, Gonzalo Muñoz +1
Given its wide spectrum of applications, the classical problem of all-terminal network reliability evaluation remains a highly relevant problem in network design. The associated op…
Convex envelopes for ray-concave functions
Javiera Barrera, Eduardo Moreno, Gonzalo Muñoz
Convexification based on convex envelopes is ubiquitous in the non-linear optimization literature. Thanks to considerable efforts of the optimization community for decades, we are…
Limit distributions of the upper order statistics for the Lévy-frailty Marshall-Olkin distribution
Javiera Barrera, Guido Lagos
The Marshall-Olkin (MO) distribution has been considered a key model in reliability theory and in risk analysis, where it is used to model the lifetimes of dependent components or…
A decomposition algorithm for computing income taxes with pass-through entities and its application to the Chilean case
Javiera Barrera, Eduardo Moreno, Sebastian Varas
Income tax systems with pass-through entities transfer a firm's incomes to the shareholders, which are taxed individually. In 2014, a Chilean tax reform introduced this type of ent…
Bounds for left and right window cutoffs
Javiera Barrera, Bernard Ycart
The location and width of the time window in which a sequence of processes converges to equilibrum are given under conditions of exponential convergence. The location depends on th…
