Constrained diffusions, with diffusion matrix scaled by small ϵ0, in a convex polyhedral cone G⊂Rk, are considered. Under suitable stability assumptions small noise asymptotic properties of invariant measures and exit times from domains are studied. Let B⊂G be a bounded domain. Under...

For a two-patch transmission of tuberculosis (TB), the disease-free equilibrium and the basic reproduction rate R0 are computed. The disease-free equilibrium is globally asymptotically stable when the basic reproduction rate is less than one. The model can have one or more endemic equilibria....

We consider the Poisson equations for denumerable Markov chains with unbounded cost functions. Solutions to the Poisson equations exist in the Banach space of bounded real-valued functions with respect to a weighted supremum norm such that the Markov chain is geometrically ergodic. Under minor...
