Dynamics of the general factor of personality: A predictor mathematical tool of alcohol misuse
2020
[EN] There are few studies developed about the general factor of personality (GFP) dynamics. This paper uses a dynamical mathematical model, the response model, to predict the short-term effects of a dose of alcohol on GFP and reports the results of an alcohol intake experiment. The GFP dynamical mechanism of change is based on the unique trait personality theory (UTPT). This theory proposes the existence of GFP, which occupies the apex of the hierarchy of personality. An experiment with 37 volunteers was performed. All the participants completed The five-adjective scale of the general factor of personality (GFP-FAS) in trait-format (GFP-T) and state-format (GFP-S) before alcohol consumptio…
Interoceptive Abilities in Inflammatory Bowel Diseases and Irritable Bowel Syndrome
2020
International audience; Alexithymia is usually described by three main dimensions difficulty identifying feelings (DIF), difficulty describing feelings (DDF), and externally oriented thinking (EOT). The most commonly used questionnaire investigating alexithymia, the Toronto Alexithymia Scale (TAS-20), supports this three-factor structure. One important assumption is that alexithymia severity is associated to vulnerability to somatic diseases, among them gastrointestinal disorders. However, the association between alexithymia and gastrointestinal disorders is not systematic, thus questioning the role of alexithymia as a vulnerability factor for those illnesses. A recent factor analysis sugge…
Supersymmetric structures for second order differential operators
2012
Necessary and sufficient conditions are obtained for a real semiclassical partial differential operator of order two to possess a supersymmetric structure. For the operator coming from a chain of oscillators, coupled to two heat baths, we show the non-existence of a smooth supersymmetric structure, for a suitable interaction potential, provided that the temperatures of the baths are different.
Rank two aCM bundles on the del Pezzo fourfold of degree 6 and its general hyperplane section
2018
International audience; In the present paper we completely classify locally free sheaves of rank 2 with vanishing intermediate cohomology modules on the image of the Segre embedding $\mathbb{P}^2$ x $\mathbb{P}^2 \subseteq \mathbb{P}^8$ and its general hyperplane sections.Such a classification extends similar already known results regarding del Pezzo varieties with Picard numbers 1 and 3 and dimension at least 3.
On stability issues for IMEX schemes applied to 1D scalar hyperbolic equations with stiff reaction terms
2011
The application of a Method of Lines to a hyperbolic PDE with source terms gives rise to a system of ODEs containing terms that may have very different stiffness properties. In this case, Implicit-Explicit Runge-Kutta (IMEX-RK) schemes are particularly useful as high order time integrators because they allow an explicit handling of the convective terms, which can be discretized using the highly developed shock capturing technology, together with an implicit treatment of the source terms, necessary for stability reasons. Motivated by the structure of the source term in a model problem introduced by LeVeque and Yee in [J. Comput. Phys. 86 (1990)], in this paper we study the preservation of ce…
Group graded algebras and almost polynomial growth
2011
Let F be a field of characteristic 0, G a finite abelian group and A a G-graded algebra. We prove that A generates a variety of G-graded algebras of almost polynomial growth if and only if A has the same graded identities as one of the following algebras: (1) FCp, the group algebra of a cyclic group of order p, where p is a prime number and p||G|; (2) UT2G(F), the algebra of 2×2 upper triangular matrices over F endowed with an elementary G-grading; (3) E, the infinite dimensional Grassmann algebra with trivial G-grading; (4) in case 2||G|, EZ2, the Grassmann algebra with canonical Z2-grading.
A note on cocharacter sequence of Jordan upper triangular matrix algebra
2016
Let UJn(F) be the Jordan algebra of n × n upper triangular matrices over a field F of characteristic zero. This paper is devoted to the study of polynomial identities satisfied by UJ2(F) and UJ3(F). In particular, the goal is twofold. On one hand, we complete the description of G-graded polynomial identities of UJ2(F), where G is a finite abelian group. On the other hand, we compute the Gelfand–Kirillov dimension of the relatively free algebra of UJ2(F) and we give a bound for the Gelfand–Kirillov dimension of the relatively free algebra of UJ3(F).
Regularity of the solution to a class of weakly singular fredholm integral equations of the second kind
1979
Continuity and differentiability properties of the solution to a class of Fredholm integral equations of the second kind with weakly singular kernel are derived. The equations studied in this paper arise from e.g. potential problems or problems of radiative equilibrium. Under reasonable assumptions it is proved that the solution possesses continuous derivatives in the interior of the interval of integration but may have mild singularities at the end-points.
Multiplicity results for a class of asymmetric weakly coupled systems of second order ordinary differential equations
2005
We prove the existence and multiplicity of solutions to a two-point boundary value problem associated to a weakly coupled system of asymmetric second-order equations. Applying a classical change of variables, we transform the initial problem into an equivalent problem whose solutions can be characterized by their nodal properties. The proof is developed in the framework of the shooting methods and it is based on some estimates on the rotation numbers associated to each component of the solutions to the equivalent system.
On strong solutions of the differential equations modeling the steady flow of certain incompressible generalized Newtonian fluids
2007
In this paper we discuss a system of partial differential equations describing the steady flow of an incompressible fluid and prove the existence of a strong solution under suitable assumptions on the data. In the 2D-case this solution turns out to be of class C^{1,\alpha}.
