Correlated systematic uncertainties and errors-on-errors in measurement combinations with an application to the 7–8 TeV ATLAS–CMS top quark mass combination by Enzo Canonero, Glen Cowan

“…We then present analytical formulas for estimating central values, confidence intervals, and goodness-of-fit when errors-on-errors are incorporated into the statistical model. To illustrate the properties of the Gamma Variance Model, we apply it to the 7–8 TeV ATLAS–CMS top quark mass combination. …”

Navigation Systems May Deteriorate Stability in Traffic Networks by Gianluca Bianchin, Fabio Pasqualetti

“…On the other hand, we demonstrate that, when the travel delay functions are not sufficiently steep or the rates at which drivers imitate previous travelers are not adequately chosen, the trajectories of the traffic system may fail to converge to an equilibrium point, thus compromising asymptotic stability. Illustrative numerical simulations combined with empirical data from highway sensors illustrate our findings.…”
