Some New Results in the Theory of Recurrent Events - A Preliminary Report.
Abstract
The main focus of the work is to obtain approximate formulae for u(n), the expected number of occurrences of an aperiodic recurrent event at time n. The formulae are all of the type u(n)=psi(n) + rho(n), where psi(n) is explicitly calculable in terms of known features of the model and rho(n) is a remainder term tending to zero as n approaches the limit of infinity. The thrust of the work lies in showing the way in which assumptions about the underlying model are reflected by rho(n).
