His essay was included in a special anthology by New York City public school children compiled and published by the New York City Department of Education.
Boritzer now lives in Venice, California and maintains his publishing office there also.
He has helped numerous other authors to get published through" How to Get Your Book Published!" programs.
Boritzer is also a yoga teacher who teaches regular classes locally and guest- teaches nationally.
He is also recognized nationally as an erudite speaker on" The Teachings of the Buddha."
Quasi-Monte Carlo method
In numerical analysis, the quasi-Monte Carlo method is a method for numerical integration and solving some other problems using low-discrepancy sequences (also called quasi-random sequences or sub-random sequences).
This is in contrast to the regular Monte Carlo method or Monte Carlo integration, which are based on sequences of pseudorandom numbers.
Monte Carlo and quasi-Monte Carlo methods are stated in a similar way.
The problem is to approximate the integral of a function "f" as the average of the function evaluated at a set of points "xx":
Since we are integrating over the "s"-dimensional unit cube, each "x" is a vector of "s" elements.
The difference between quasi-Monte Carlo and Monte Carlo is the way the x are chosen.
Quasi-Monte Carlo uses a low-discrepancy sequence such as the Halton sequence, the Sobol sequence, or the Faure sequence, whereas Monte Carlo uses a pseudorandom sequence.
The advantage of using low-discrepancy sequences is a faster rate of convergence.
Quasi-Monte Carlo has a rate of convergence close to O(1/"N"), whereas the rate for the Monte Carlo method is O("N").
The Quasi-Monte Carlo method recently became popular in the area of mathematical finance or computational finance.
In these areas, high-dimensional numerical integrals, where the integral should be evaluated within a threshold ε, occur frequently.
Hence, the Monte Carlo method and the quasi-Monte Carlo method are beneficial in these situations.
Monte Carlo
Monte Carlo( or colloquially" Monte- Carl") is officially an administrative area of the Principality of Monaco, specifically the ward of Monte Carlo/ Spélugues, where the Monte Carlo Casino is located.
Informally, the name also refers to a larger district, the Monte Carlo Quarter( corresponding to the former municipality of Monte Carlo), which besides Monte Carlo/ Spélugues also includes the wards of La Rousse/ Saint Roman, Larvotto/ Bas Moulins, and Saint Michel.
The permanent population of the ward of Monte Carlo is about 3,500, while that of the quarter is about 15,000.
Monaco has four traditional quarters.
From west to east they are: Fontvieille( the newest), Monaco- Ville( the oldest), La Condamine, and Monte Carlo.
Monte Carlo is situated on a prominent escarpment at the base of the Maritime Alps along the French Riviera.
Near the quarter's western end is the world- famous Place du Casino, the gambling center which has made Monte Carlo" an international byword for the extravagant display and reckless dispersal of wealth".
It is also the location of the Hôtel de Paris, Café de Paris and Salle Garnier( the casino theatre which is the home of the Opéra de Monte- Carlo).
The quarter's eastern part includes the community of Larvotto with Monaco's only public beach, as well as its new convention center( the Grimaldi Forum), and the Monte- Carlo Bay Hotel& Resort.
At the quarter's eastern border, one crosses into the French town of Beausoleil( sometimes referred to as Monte- Carlo- Supérieur), and just to its east is the western border of Italy.
