They arise from diffusion approximations for many-server queues that have phase-type service time distributions and allow for customer abandonment. We prove that they are positive recurrent and has unique stationary distribution under certain conditions. The proof techniques are based on constructing suitable quadratic Lyapunov functions. This is joint work with Prof. Jim Dai and Prof. Ton Dieker. \n\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":null,"format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"Positive Recurrence for Diffusion Limits of Many-Server Queues","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Xuefeng Gao, Georgia Tech"}],"uid":"27318","created_gmt":"2010-10-01 00:00:00","changed_gmt":"2016-10-08 01:56:05","author":"Shuangchi He","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2010-10-01T14:00:00-04:00","event_time_end":"2010-10-01T15:00:00-04:00","event_time_end_last":"2010-10-01T15:00:00-04:00","gmt_time_start":"2010-10-01 18:00:00","gmt_time_end":"2010-10-01 19:00:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2010-10-01 19:00:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"extras":[],"groups":[{"id":"25298","name":"Hg Training"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[{"id":"14558","name":"diffusion process"},{"id":"14557","name":"many-server queue"},{"id":"167145","name":"stochastics"}],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[{"id":"1795","name":"Seminar\/Lecture\/Colloquium"}],"invited_audience":[],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[{"value":"\u003Cstrong\u003EShuangchi He\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EH.
