Benchmarking parameter-free AMaLGaM on functions with and without noise.

2013

We describe a parameter-free estimation-of-distribution algorithm (EDA) called the adapted maximum-likelihood Gaussian model iterated density-estimation evolutionary algorithm (AMaLGaM-ID[Formula: see text]A, or AMaLGaM for short) for numerical optimization. AMaLGaM is benchmarked within the 2009 black box optimization benchmarking (BBOB) framework and compared to a variant with incremental model building (iAMaLGaM). We study the implications of factorizing the covariance matrix in the Gaussian distribution, to use only a few or no covariances. Further, AMaLGaM and iAMaLGaM are also evaluated on the noisy BBOB problems and we assess how well multiple evaluations per solution can average ou…

Non-Gaussian Approach for Stochastic Analysis of Offshore Structures

1995

An approach that is able to obtain the stochastic characteristics in terms of, stochastic momen.ts of a SDOF system excited by loads due to a fluid-structure mteraction is presented. In This approach the fluid horizontal velocity is considered as a filtered white noise, and the actual load expression is replaced by a Thirddegree polynomial of this velocity. The tools needed to p.romptly obtain the filters parameters and the equations governing the response moments are also presented; in particular, if the structure is sufficiently stiff, It is shown that these equations do not need any closure scheme III order to be solved. © ASCE.

A method recently applied to obtain indefinite integrals involving quotients of some common special functions is applied to obtain indefinite integrals of some quotients of Gauss hypergeometric fun...

Hilbert-Schmidt Hankel operators on the Segal-Bargmann space

2004

This paper considers Hankel operators on the Segal-Bargmann space of holomorphic functions onCn\mathbb {C}^nthat are square integrable with respect to the Gaussian measure. It is shown that in the case of a bounded symbolg∈L∞(Cn)g \in L^{\infty }(\mathbb {C}^n)the Hankel operatorHgH_gis of the Hilbert-Schmidt class if and only ifHg¯H_{\bar {g}}is Hilbert-Schmidt. In the case where the symbol is square integrable with respect to the Lebesgue measure it is known that the Hilbert-Schmidt norms of the Hankel operatorsHgH_gandHg¯H_{\bar {g}}coincide. But, in general, if we deal with bounded symbols, only the inequality‖Hg‖HS≤2‖Hg¯‖HS\|H_g\|_{HS}\leq 2\|H_{\bar {g}}\|_{HS}can be proved. The resul…

Hadamard-type theorems for hypersurfaces in hyperbolic spaces

2006

Abstract We prove that a bounded, complete hypersurface in hyperbolic space with normal curvatures greater than −1 is diffeomorphic to a sphere. The completeness condition is relaxed when the normal curvatures are bounded away from −1. The diffeomorphism is constructed via the Gauss map of some parallel hypersurface. We also give bounds for the total curvature of this parallel hypersurface.

Robustness of the Gaussian concentration inequality and the Brunn–Minkowski inequality

2016

We provide a sharp quantitative version of the Gaussian concentration inequality: for every $r>0$, the difference between the measure of the $r$-enlargement of a given set and the $r$-enlargement of a half-space controls the square of the measure of the symmetric difference between the set and a suitable half-space. We also prove a similar estimate in the Euclidean setting for the enlargement with a general convex set. This is equivalent to the stability of the Brunn-Minkowski inequality for the Minkowski sum between a convex set and a generic one.

Characterisation of 2-dimensional Riemannian manifolds (M, g) (in particular, of surfaces with constant gaussian curvatureK=1/c2, o,−1/c2, respectively) whose tangent circle bundle (TcM, gs) (gs=Sasaki metric) admit an «almost-regular» vector field belonging to an eigenspace of the Ricci operator.

The horospherical Gauss-Bonnet type theorem in hyperbolic space

2006

We introduce the notion horospherical curvatures of hypersurfaces in hyperbolic space and show that totally umbilic hypersurfaces with vanishing cur- vatures are only horospheres. We also show that the Gauss-Bonnet type theorem holds for the horospherical Gauss-Kronecker curvature of a closed orientable even dimensional hypersurface in hyperbolic space. + (i1) by using the model in Minkowski space. We introduced the notion of hyperbolic Gauss indicatrices slightly modified the definition of hyperbolic Gauss maps. The notion of hyperbolic indicatrices is independent of the choice of the model of hyperbolic space. Using the hyperbolic Gauss indicatrix, we defined the principal hyperbolic curv…

Functional renormalization group approach to the Kraichnan model.

2015

We study the anomalous scaling of the structure functions of a scalar field advected by a random Gaussian velocity field, the Kraichnan model, by means of Functional Renormalization Group techniques. We analyze the symmetries of the model and derive the leading correction to the structure functions considering the renormalization of composite operators and applying the operator product expansion.
