A bounded version of bosonic creation and annihilation operators and their related quasi-coherent states
2007
Coherent states are usually defined as eigenstates of an unbounded operator, the so-called annihilation operator. We propose here possible constructions of {\em quasi-coherent states}, which turn out to be {\em quasi} eigenstate of a \underline{bounded} operator related to an annihilation-like operator. We use this bounded operator to construct a sort of modified harmonic oscillator and we analyze the dynamics of this oscillator from an algebraic point of view.
ERP denoising in multichannel EEG data using contrasts between signal and noise subspaces
2009
Abstract In this paper, a new method intended for ERP denoising in multichannel EEG data is discussed. The denoising is done by separating ERP/noise subspaces in multidimensional EEG data by a linear transformation and the following dimension reduction by ignoring noise components during inverse transformation. The separation matrix is found based on the assumption that ERP sources are deterministic for all repetitions of the same type of stimulus within the experiment, while the other noise sources do not obey the determinancy property. A detailed derivation of the technique is given together with the analysis of the results of its application to a real high-density EEG data set. The inter…
Using the Breeder genetic algorithm to optimize a multiple regression analysis model used in prediction of the mesiodistal width of unerupted teeth
2014
For the prediction of the unerupted canine and premolars mesiodistal size, have been proposed different variants of multiple linear regression equations (MLRE). These are based on the amount of the upper and lower permanent incisors with a tooth of the lateral support. Aim of present study was to develop a method for optimization of MLRE, using a genetic algorithm for determining a set of coefficients that minimizes the prediction error for the sum of permanent premolars and canines dimensions from a group of young people in an area Romania's central city represented by Sibiu. To test the proposed method, we used a multiple linear regression equation derived from the estimation method propo…
Complex-Valued Independent Component Analysis of Natural Images
2011
Linear independent component analysis (ICA) learns simple cell receptive fields fromnatural images. Here,we showthat linear complex-valued ICA learns complex cell properties from Fourier-transformed natural images, i.e. two Gabor-like filters with quadrature-phase relationship. Conventional methods for complex-valued ICA assume that the phases of the output signals have uniform distribution. We show here that for natural images the phase distributions are, however, often far from uniform. We thus relax the uniformity assumption and model also the phase of the sources in complex-valued ICA. Compared to the original complex ICA model, the new model provides a better fit to the data, and leads…
Decay estimates in the supremum norm for the solutions to a nonlinear evolution equation
2014
We study the asymptotic behaviour, as t → ∞, of the solutions to the nonlinear evolution equationwhere ΔpNu = Δu + (p−2) (D2u(Du/∣Du∣)) · (Du/∣Du∣) is the normalized p-Laplace equation and p ≥ 2. We show that if u(x,t) is a viscosity solution to the above equation in a cylinder Ω × (0, ∞) with time-independent lateral boundary values, then it converges to the unique stationary solution h as t → ∞. Moreover, we provide an estimate for the decay rate of maxx∈Ω∣u(x,t) − h(x)∣.
Ultrarelativistic bound states in the spherical well
2016
We address an eigenvalue problem for the ultrarelativistic (Cauchy) operator $(-\Delta )^{1/2}$, whose action is restricted to functions that vanish beyond the interior of a unit sphere in three spatial dimensions. We provide high accuracy spectral datafor lowest eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of this infinite spherical well problem. Our focus is on radial and orbital shapes of eigenfunctions. The spectrum consists of an ordered set of strictly positive eigenvalues which naturally splits into non-overlapping, orbitally labelled $E_{(k,l)}$ series. For each orbital label $l=0,1,2,...$ the label $k =1,2,...$ enumerates consecutive $l$-th series eigenvalues. Each of them is $2l+1$-degenerate. …
Min-max control of uncertain multi-inventory systems with multiplicative uncertainties
2001
In this note, we consider production-distribution systems with buffer and capacity constraints. For such systems, we assume that the model is not known exactly. More precisely, the entries of the matrix representing the system structure may be affine functions of some uncertain time-varying parameters that take values within assigned bounds. We give stabilizability conditions that can be checked, in principle, by solving a min-max problem on the surface of the state-space (buffer level space) unit ball. Then, we consider a special case in which each uncertain parameter affects a single column of the system matrix and is independent of all the other ones. In this case, we propose a mixed int…
Some Non-linear Geometrical Properties of Banach Spaces
2014
In this survey we report on very recent results about some non-linear geometrical properties of many classes of real and complex Banach spaces and uniform algebras, including the ball algebra \(\fancyscript{A}_u(B_X)\) of all uniformly continuous functions on the closed unit ball and holomorphic on the open unit ball of a complex Banach space \(X\). These geometrical properties are: Polynomial numerical index, Polynomial Daugavet property and Bishop-Phelp-Bollobas property for multilinear mappings.
Multilinear Fourier multipliers related to time–frequency localization
2013
We consider multilinear multipliers associated in a natural way with localization operators. Boundedness and compactness results are obtained. In particular, we get a geometric condition on a subset A⊂R2d which guarantees that, for a fixed synthesis window ψ∈L2(Rd), the family of localization operators Lφ,ψA obtained when the analysis window φ varies on the unit ball of L2(Rd) is a relatively compact set of compact operators.
An extension of Guo's theorem via k--contractive retractions
2006
Abstract Let X be a infinite-dimensional Banach space. We generalize Guo's Theorem [D.J. Guo, Eigenvalues and eigenvectors of nonlinear operators, Chinese Ann. Math. 2 (1981) 65–80 [English]] to k- ψ -contractions and condensing mappings, under a condition which depends on the infimum k ψ of all k ⩾ 1 for which there exists a k- ψ -contractive retraction of the closed unit ball of the space X onto its boundary.
