Asset Price Dynamics in a Chartist-Fundamentalist Model with Time Delays: A Bifurcation Analysis by Loretti I. Dobrescu, Mihaela Neamtu, Gabriela Mircea

“…This paper studies the dynamic behavior of asset prices using a chartist-fundamentalist model with two speculative markets. To this effect, we employ a differential system with delays à la Dibeh (2007) to describe the price dynamics and we assume that the two markets are coupled via diffusive coupling terms. …”

On the Error Rate Analysis of Dual-Hop Amplify-and-Forward Relaying in Generalized-K Fading Channels by George P. Efthymoglou, Nikolaos Bissias, Valentine A. Aalo

“…For this system, it is hard to obtain a closed-form expression for the moment generating function (MGF) of the end-to-end signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) at the destination, even for the case of a single dual-hop relay link. Therefore, we employ two different upper bound approximations for the output SNR, of which one is based on the minimum SNR of the two hops for each dual-hop relay link and the other is based on the geometric mean of the SNRs of the two hops. …”
