A fast hierarchical dual boundary element method for three-dimensional elastodynamic crack problems
2010
In this work a fast solver for large-scale three-dimensional elastodynamic crack problems is presented, implemented, and tested. The dual boundary element method in the Laplace transform domain is used for the accurate dynamic analysis of cracked bodies. The fast solution procedure is based on the use of hierarchical matrices for the representation of the collocation matrix for each computed value of the Laplace parameter. An ACA (adaptive cross approximation) algorithm is used for the population of the low rank blocks and its performance at varying Laplace parameters is investigated. A preconditioned GMRES is used for the solution of the resulting algebraic system of equations. The precond…
A numerical method to calculate the muon relaxation function in the presence of diffusion
2014
We present an accurate and efficient method to calculate the effect of random fluctuations of the local field at the muon, for instance in the case muon diffusion, within the framework of the strong collision approximation. The method is based on a reformulation of the Markovian process over a discretized time base, leading to a summation equation for the muon polarization function which is solved by discrete Fourier transform. The latter is formally analogous, though not identical, to the integral equation of the original continuous-time model, solved by Laplace transform. With real-case parameter values, the solution of the discrete-time strong collision model is found to approximate the …
Analysis of the static and dynamic behaviour of a magnetic liquid seal
1985
A rotating shaft seal, using ferrofluid between biconical truncated magnetic poles, is analysed both in static and dynamic conditions. After solving Laplace's equation and allowing an approximate expression for the magnetic potential, the magnetic forces acting on the working fluid are obtained. It is thus possible to determine the baric field existing in static conditions and the highest tolerable pressure jump. In the case of dynamic working the flow is schematized by two interior regions, where the azimuthal velocity prevails, and four boundary layers on the walls, where meridional transport of fluid takes place. Assuming laminar motion, by means of a perturbation procedure it is possibl…
Complete sets of logarithmic vector fields for integration-by-parts identities of Feynman integrals
2018
Integration-by-parts identities between loop integrals arise from the vanishing integration of total derivatives in dimensional regularization. Generic choices of total derivatives in the Baikov or parametric representations lead to identities which involve dimension shifts. These dimension shifts can be avoided by imposing a certain constraint on the total derivatives. The solutions of this constraint turn out to be a specific type of syzygies which correspond to logarithmic vector fields along the Gram determinant formed of the independent external and loop momenta. We present an explicit generating set of solutions in Baikov representation, valid for any number of loops and external mome…
A new technique for computing the spectral density of sunset-type diagrams: integral transformation in configuration space
1998
We present a new method to investigate a class of diagrams which generalizes the sunset topology to any number of massive internal lines. Our attention is focused on the computation of the spectral density of these diagrams which is related to many-body phase space in $D$ dimensional space-time. The spectral density is determined by the inverse $K$-transform of the product of propagators in configuration space. The inverse $K$-transform reduces to the inverse Laplace transform in any odd number of space-time dimensions for which we present an explicit analytical result.
Determination of the strange-quark mass from QCD pseudoscalar sum rules
1998
A new determination of the strange-quark mass is discussed, based on the two-point function involving the axial-vector current divergences. This Green function is known in perturbative QCD up to order O(alpha_s^3), and up to dimension-six in the non-perturbative domain. The hadronic spectral function is parametrized in terms of the kaon pole, followed by its two radial excitations, and normalized at threshold according to conventional chiral-symmetry. The result of a Laplace transform QCD sum rule analysis of this two-point function is: m_s(1 GeV^2) = 155 pm 25 MeV.
Light quark condensates from QCD sum rules
1985
The light quark condensates have been determined by two different methods: By Laplace transformed QCD sum rules together with an improved hadronic continuum from extended PCAC and by analytic continuation by duality (ACD) of the asymptotic QCD amplitude. Both methods yield compatible results. The PCAC corrections are considerably large: for theu, d quarks near 8% and for theu, s quarks of order 60%.
Switching synchronization in one-dimensional memristive networks: An exact solution.
2017
We study a switching synchronization phenomenon taking place in one-dimensional memristive networks when the memristors switch from the high- to low-resistance state. It is assumed that the distributions of threshold voltages and switching rates of memristors are arbitrary. Using the Laplace transform, a set of nonlinear equations describing the memristors dynamics is solved exactly, without any approximations. The time dependencies of memristances are found, and it is shown that the voltage falls across memristors are proportional to their threshold voltages. A compact expression for the network switching time is derived.
Invariant Markov semigroups on quantum homogeneous spaces
2019
Invariance properties of linear functionals and linear maps on algebras of functions on quantum homogeneous spaces are studied, in particular for the special case of expected coideal *-subalgebras. Several one-to-one correspondences between such invariant functionals are established. Adding a positivity condition, this yields one-to-one correspondences of invariant quantum Markov semigroups acting on expected coideal *-subalgebras and certain convolution semigroups of states on the underlying compact quantum group. This gives an approach to classifying invariant quantum Markov semigroups on these quantum homogeneous spaces. The generators of these semigroups are viewed as Laplace operators …
On $L^p$ resolvent estimates for Laplace-Beltrami operators on compact manifolds
2011
Abstract. In this article we prove Lp estimates for resolvents of Laplace–Beltrami operators on compact Riemannian manifolds, generalizing results of Kenig, Ruiz and Sogge (1987) in the Euclidean case and Shen (2001) for the torus. We follow Sogge (1988) and construct Hadamard's parametrix, then use classical boundedness results on integral operators with oscillatory kernels related to the Carleson and Sjölin condition. Our initial motivation was to obtain Lp Carleman estimates with limiting Carleman weights generalizing those of Jerison and Kenig (1985); we illustrate the pertinence of Lp resolvent estimates by showing the relation with Carleman estimates. Such estimates are useful in the …
