We study the large-time behavior of solutions to the nonlinear exterior problem L u ( t , x ) = &kappa
A character-theory-free characterization of the Mathieu group M12
1990
AbstractThe known characterization of the Mathieu group M12 by the structure of the centralizer of a 2-central involution is based on the application of the theory of exceptional characters and uses in addition a block theoretic result which asserts that a simple group of order |M12| is isomorphic to M12. The details of the proof of the latter result had never been published. We show here that M12 can be handled in a completely elementary and group theoretical way.
Toeplitz band matrices with small random perturbations
2021
We study the spectra of $N\times N$ Toeplitz band matrices perturbed by small complex Gaussian random matrices, in the regime $N\gg 1$. We prove a probabilistic Weyl law, which provides an precise asymptotic formula for the number of eigenvalues in certain domains, which may depend on $N$, with probability sub-exponentially (in $N$) close to $1$. We show that most eigenvalues of the perturbed Toeplitz matrix are at a distance of at most $\mathcal{O}(N^{-1+\varepsilon})$, for all $\varepsilon >0$, to the curve in the complex plane given by the symbol of the unperturbed Toeplitz matrix.
Arqueología del futuro en el barrio El Raval de Barcelona: a propósito de tres inercias del urbanismo tecnocrático y sus efectos indeseables
2021
Este artículo es el resultado de nuestro esfuerzo analítico para comprender cómo se han pensado y practicado intervenciones urbanísticas, extremadamente drásticas, contra el barrio El Raval de Barcelona en períodos formalmente democráticos. Lo que consideramos original de nuestra propuesta analítica es la identificación de una suerte de doxa tecnocrática que habría impregnado el urbanismo –también el barcelonés- desde sus inicios, y que acabará caracterizando el aclamado tanto como discutido “Modelo Barcelona”. La metodología utilizada proviene de la antropología histórica y de la sociología urbana. Nuestro prisma teórico entrecruza perspectivas historiográficas como la biopolítica, socioló…

Stress-strain models for normal and high strength confined concrete: Test and comparison of literature models reliability in reproducing experimental…
2017
SUMMARY: The adoption of proper constitutive laws for confined concrete is basic for seismic assessment of new and existing reinforced concrete civil structures. The deformation capacity of reinforced concrete (RC) columns subjected to axially centred and eccentric loads depends on the effectiveness confinement action. A proper assignment of the stressstrainlaws for concrete allows obtaining an adequate definition of the ductility of the crosssections and correctly identifying mechanical nonlinearities in computational models.Several studies concerning the behaviour of confined concrete have been carried out, highlighting the role of different geometrical and mechanical parameters to the ov…
Seismogenic rotational slumps and translational glides in pelagic deep-water carbonates. Upper Tithonian-Berriasian of Southern Tethyan margin (W Sic…
2017
Abstract Soft-sediment deformation structures (SSDSs), which reflect sediment mobilization processes, are helpful to identify punctual events of paleoenvironmental stresses. In the upper Tithonian-Berriasian calpionellid pelagic limestone of the Lattimusa Fm. outcropping in the Barracu section (W Sicily), paleoenvironmental restoration reveals the occurrence of a deep-water flat basin, characterised by undeformed planar bedding, laterally passing to a gentle slope where the deformed horizons alternate with undeformed beds. Here, two types of gravity slides have been differentiated on the basis of different kinds of SSDSs, brittle deformation, involved lithofacies, geometry and morphology. T…
“Anti-Bayesian” flat and hierarchical clustering using symmetric quantiloids
2017
A myriad of works has been published for achieving data clustering based on the Bayesian paradigm, where the clustering sometimes resorts to Naive-Bayes decisions. Within the domain of clustering, the Bayesian principle corresponds to assigning the unlabelled samples to the cluster whose mean (or centroid) is the closest. Recently, Oommen and his co-authors have proposed a novel, counter-intuitive and pioneering PR scheme that is radically opposed to the Bayesian principle. The rational for this paradigm, referred to as the “Anti-Bayesian” (AB) paradigm, involves classification based on the non-central quantiles of the distributions. The first-reported work to achieve clustering using the A…
Statistical validation of simulation models of observable systems
2003
In this paper, for validating computer simulation models of real, observable systems, an uniformly most powerful invariant (UMPI) test is developed from the generalized maximum likelihood ratio (GMLR). This test can be considered as a result of a new approach to solving the Behrens‐Fisher problem when covariance matrices of two multivariate normal populations (compared with respect to their means) are different and unknown. The test is based on invariant statistic whose distribution, under the null hypothesis, does not depend on the unknown (nuisance) parameters. The sample size and threshold of the UMPI test are determined from minimization of the weighted sum of the model builder's risk a…
