On global solutions of the Maxwell-Dirac equations
1987
We prove, for the Maxwell-Dirac equations in 1+3 dimensions, that modified wave operators exist on a domain of small entire test functions of exponential type and that the Cauchy problem, inR+×R3, has a unique solution for each initial condition (att=0) which is in the image of the wave operator. The modification of the wave operator, which eliminates infrared divergences, is given by approximate solutions of the Hamilton-Jacobi equation, for a relativistic electron in an electromagnetic potential. The modified wave operator linearizes the Maxwell-Dirac equations to their linear part.
A Positive Definite Advection Scheme for Use in Long Range Transport Models: Extension to Monotonicity
1992
Numerical modeling of atmospheric transport processes requires the solution of the continuity equation for prognostic variables such as momentum, heat, water vapor, liquid water or chemical species of the atmosphere. Although in the literature many advection schemes are known to solve this problem (Lax and Wendroff 1964, Crowley 1968, Tremback et al. 1987, Bott 1989a,b), these algorithms show different disadvantages, which sometimes yield undesirably poor numerical results. For instance, the upstream method is known to produce large numerical diffusion. The higher order versions of the advection schemes of Tremback et al. (1987) are much less diffusive. Unfortunately, the schemes are not po…
Saturation and coherence effects in the modified KGBJS equation
2013
We solve the modified non-linear extension of the CCFM equati on KGBJS equation numerically for certain initial conditions and compare the resulting gl uon Green functions with those obtained from solving the original CCFM equation and the BFKL and BK equations for the same initial conditions. We improve the low transversal momentum behaviour of the KGBJS equation by a small modification.
Viscosity solutions of the Monge-Ampère equation with the right hand side in Lp
2007
We compare various notions of solutions of Monge-Ampère equations with discontinuous functions on the right hand side. Precisely, we show that the weak solutions defined by Trudinger can be obtained by the vanishing viscosity approximation method. Moreover, we investigate existence and uniqueness of Lp-viscosity solutions.
Principal part of multi-parameter displacement functions
2012
This paper deals with a perturbation problem from a period annulus, for an analytic Hamiltonian system [J.-P. Françoise, Ergodic Theory Dynam. Systems 16 (1996), no. 1, 87–96 ; L. Gavrilov, Ann. Fac. Sci. Toulouse Math. (6) 14(2005), no. 4, 663–682. The authors consider the planar polynomial multi-parameter deformations and determine the coefficients in the expansion of the displacement function generated on a transversal section to the period annulus. Their first result gives a generalization to the Françoise algorithm for a one-parameter family, following [J.-P. Françoise and M. Pelletier, J. Dyn. Control Syst. 12 (2006), no. 3, 357–369. The second result expresses the principal terms in …
Ideal and physical barrier problems for non-linear systems driven by normal and Poissonian white noise via path integral method
2016
Abstract In this paper, the probability density evolution of Markov processes is analyzed for a class of barrier problems specified in terms of certain boundary conditions. The standard case of computing the probability density of the response is associated with natural boundary conditions, and the first passage problem is associated with absorbing boundaries. In contrast, herein we consider the more general case of partially reflecting boundaries and the effect of these boundaries on the probability density of the response. In fact, both standard cases can be considered special cases of the general problem. We provide solutions by means of the path integral method for half- and single-degr…
Rigidity of quasi-isometries for symmetric spaces and Euclidean buildings
1997
Abstract We study quasi-isometries between products of symmetric spaces and Euclidean buildings. The main results are that quasi-isometries preserve the product structure, and that in the irreducible higher rank case, quasi-isometries are at finite distance from homotheties.
Efficient formulation of Multimode Equivalent Networks for 2-D waveguide steps through Kummer's transformation
2017
In this paper we present a new and improved formulation for the Multimode Equivalent Network (MEN) representation of arbitrary waveguide junctions. In the new formulation the Kummer's transformation is used to separate the kernel into dynamic and static parts, by introducing higher order extraction terms. The main difference with respect to the old formulation is that the approximation of the kernel is more accurate and the numerical computations are more efficient. In addition to theory, both formulations are compared in terms of efficiency and convergence thereby fully validating the proposed new formulation.
Efficient High-Order Iterative Methods for Solving Nonlinear Systems and Their Application on Heat Conduction Problems
2017
[EN] For solving nonlinear systems of big size, such as those obtained by applying finite differences for approximating the solution of diffusion problem and heat conduction equations, three-step iterative methods with eighth-order local convergence are presented. The computational efficiency of the new methods is compared with those of some known ones, obtaining good conclusions, due to the particular structure of the iterative expression of the proposed methods. Numerical comparisons are made with the same existing methods, on standard nonlinear systems and a nonlinear one-dimensional heat conduction equation by transforming it in a nonlinear system by using finite differences. From these…
On Discovering Low Order Models in Biochemical Reaction Kinetics
2007
We develop a method by which a large number of differential equations representing biochemical reaction kinetics may be represented by a smaller number of differential equations. The basis of our technique is a conjecture that the high dimension equations of biochemical kinetics, which involve reaction terms of specific forms, are actually implementing a low dimension system whose behavior requires right hand sides that can not be biochemically implemented. For systems that satisfy this conjecture, we develop a simple approximation scheme based on multilinear algebra that extracts the low dimensional system from simulations of the high dimension system. We demonstrate this technique on a st…
