This paper introduces a new stochastic process in which the iterates of a dynamical system evolving in discrete time coincide with the events of a Poisson process. The autocovariance function of the stochastic process is studied and a necessary and sufficient condition for it to vanish is deduced. It is shown that the mean function of this process comprises a continuous-time semidynamical system if the underlying dynamical map is linear. The flow of probability density functions generated by the stochastic process is analysed in detail, and the relationship between the flow and the solutions of the linear Boltzmann equation is investigated. It is shown that the flow is a semigroup if and only if the point process defining the stochastic process is Poisson, thereby providing a new characterization of the Poisson process.

<p>An estimator of the intensity in the form of a power function of an inhomogeneous Poisson process is constructed and investigated. It is assumed that only a single realization of the Poisson process is observed in a bounded window. We prove that the proposed estimator is consistent when the size of the window indefinitely expands. The asymptotic bias, variance and the mean- squared error of the proposed estimator are computed. Asymptotic normality of the estimator is also established.</p>

For a subcritical Bellman-Harris process for which the Malthusian parameter α exists and the mean function M(t)∼ aeat as t → ∞, a necessary and sufficient condition for e–at (1 –F(s, t)) to have a non-zero limit is known. The corresponding condition is given for the generalized branching process.

We consider a positive-valued time series whose conditional distribution has a time-varying mean, which may depend on exogenous variables. The main applications concern count or duration data. Under a contraction condition on the mean function, it is shown that stationarity and ergodicity hold when the mean and stochastic orders of the conditional distribution are the same. The latter condition holds for the exponential family parametrized by the mean, but also for many other distributions. We also provide conditions for the existence of marginal moments and for the geometric decay of the beta-mixing coefficients. We give conditions for consistency and asymptotic normality of the Exponential Quasi-Maximum Likelihood Estimator of the conditional mean parameters. Simulation experiments and illustrations on series of stock market volumes and of greenhouse gas concentrations show that the multiplicative-error form of usual duration models deserves to be relaxed, as allowed in this paper.

Background and Purpose:The purpose of our study was to assess the effects of self-knee massage with ginger oil on pain and daily living activities in patients with knee osteoarthritis.Methods:Participants (N= 68) were asked about their sociodemographic characteristics, pain level in the last week using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS), and functionality in activities of daily living with the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC). Standard treatment prescribed by a physician was given to the patients with osteoarthritis. In addition to the standard treatment, self-knee massage with ginger oil twice a week was recommended to the intervention group (n= 34). At the end of the first and fifth week, participants in both groups were assessed regarding pain and functional state.Results:The mean VAS Pain scores of the intervention group were significantly lower at the end of the first and fifth weeks (p< .05). The mean total scores and mean Function subscale scores of the WOMAC were significantly lower in massage group in the first- and fifth-week assessments (p< .05).Implications for Practice:Self-massage of the knee with ginger oil may be used as a complementary method to standard medical treatment. Nurses can easily train patients and their caregivers on knee massage, and the intervention can be implemented by patients at home without any restrictions on location.

The mean and the variance of the time S(t) spent by a system below a random threshold until t are obtained when the system level is modelled by the current value of a sequence of independent and identically distributed random variables appearing at the epochs of a nonhomogeneous Poisson process. In the case of the homogeneous Poisson process, the asymptotic distribution of S(t)/t as t → ∞ is derived.
