The BDF2-Maruyama Scheme for Stochastic Evolution Equations with Monotone Drift
[article]
2021
arXiv
pre-print
We study the numerical approximation of stochastic evolution equations with a monotone drift driven by an infinite-dimensional Wiener process. ...
To discretize the equation, we combine a drift-implicit two-step BDF method for the temporal discretization with an abstract Galerkin method for the spatial discretization. ...
Acknowledgment The authors like to thank Etienne Emmrich for very helpful comments on the BDF2 method for nonlinear evolution equations. ...

Generalized Monotonicity Analysis
2006
Social Science Research Network
Second, it allows studying the monotonicity of functions or subsets of variables. Third, GMA naturally provides bounds on the sensitivity of variables to parameter changes. ...
Generalized monotonicity analysis (GMA) extends the available methods in several directions. First, it provides a way of finding parameter moves that yield monotonicity of model solutions. ...
For a fixed t k+1 , the solution x(t) is nondecreasing in s k and thus depends only on s k , by induction hypothesis. Thus, x depends only on s k and t k+1 . ...

Monotone imitation
2008
Economic Theory
We say that a behavioral rule is first-order monotone (FOM) if the number of individuals who play actions with first-order stochastic dominant payoff distributions is expected to increase in any environment ...
In economics, an important role for learning and evolution theory is providing an analytical framework to asses when experience will lead individuals to behave as rational agents (for example, see the ...
In order to allow for experimentation, in this section we allow behavioral rules to depend on time. ...

Generating monotone quantities for the heat equation
[article]
2017
arXiv
pre-print
The purpose of this article is to expose and further develop a simple yet surprisingly far-reaching framework for generating monotone quantities for positive solutions to linear heat equations in euclidean ...
This framework is intimately connected to the existence of a rich variety of algebraic closure properties of families of sub/super-solutions, and more generally solutions of systems of differential inequalities ...
Introduction The identification of functionals which vary monotonically as their inputs flow according to a given evolution equation is generally considered to be more of an art than a science. ...

Monotone Learning with Rectified Wire Networks
[article]
2019
arXiv
pre-print
We introduce a new neural network model, together with a tractable and monotone online learning algorithm. ...
Our model describes feed-forward networks for classification, with one output node for each class. The only nonlinear operation is rectification using a ReLU function with a bias. ...
We also thank the three reviewers whose comments brought significant improvements to the paper. ...

Expedient and Monotone Learning Rules
2004
Econometrica
This paper considers learning rules for environments in which little prior and feedback information is available to the decision maker. ...
Two properties of such learning rules are studied: absolute expediency and monotonicity. ...
Our analysis could form a building block for an analysis that includes a study of the optimal initial point for the learning process. ...
