We present Markov models for two social processes: the spread of rumors and the change in the spatial distribution of a population over time. For the spread of rumors, we present two models. The first is for the situation in which all particles ar...

We define a class of convex measures of risk whose values depend on the random variables only up to the lambda-quantiles for some given constant lambda in (0,1). For this class of convex risk measures, the assumption of Fatou property can be stren...
