We analyze the number of zeros of det(F([alpha])), where F([alpha]) is the matrix exponent of a Markov Additive Process (MAP) with one-sided jumps. The focus is on the number of zeros in the right half of the complex plane, where F([alpha]) is analytic. In addition, we also consider the case of...

Consider events of the form {Zs=[zeta](s),s[set membership, variant]S}, where Z is a continuous Gaussian process with stationary increments, [zeta] is a function that belongs to the reproducing kernel Hilbert space R of process Z, and is compact. The main problem considered in this paper is...
