Viscous-Inviscid Interactions in a Boundary-Layer Flow Induced by a Vortex Array
2014
In this paper we investigate the asymptotic validity of boundary layer theory. For a flow induced by a periodic row of point-vortices, we compare Prandtl's solution to Navier-Stokes solutions at different $Re$ numbers. We show how Prandtl's solution develops a finite time separation singularity. On the other hand Navier-Stokes solution is characterized by the presence of two kinds of viscous-inviscid interactions between the boundary layer and the outer flow. These interactions can be detected by the analysis of the enstrophy and of the pressure gradient on the wall. Moreover we apply the complex singularity tracking method to Prandtl and Navier-Stokes solutions and analyze the previous int…
Singularity formation for Prandtl’s equations
2009
Abstract We consider Prandtl’s equations for an impulsively started disk and follow the process of the formation of the singularity in the complex plane using the singularity tracking method. We classify Van Dommelen and Shen’s singularity as a cubic root singularity. We introduce a class of initial data, uniformly bounded in H 1 , which have a dipole singularity in the complex plane. These data lead to a solution blow-up whose time can be made arbitrarily short within the class. This is numerical evidence of the ill-posedness of the Prandtl equations in H 1 . The presence of a small viscosity in the streamwise direction changes the behavior of the singularities. They stabilize at a distanc…
Determining a Random Schrödinger Operator : Both Potential and Source are Random
2020
We study an inverse scattering problem associated with a Schr\"odinger system where both the potential and source terms are random and unknown. The well-posedness of the forward scattering problem is first established in a proper sense. We then derive two unique recovery results in determining the rough strengths of the random source and the random potential, by using the corresponding far-field data. The first recovery result shows that a single realization of the passive scattering measurements uniquely recovers the rough strength of the random source. The second one shows that, by a single realization of the backscattering data, the rough strength of the random potential can be recovered…
An example of cancellation of infinities in the star-quantization of fields
1993
Within the *-quantization framework, it is shown how to remove some of the divergences occurring in theλo 2 4 -theory by introducing aλ-dependent *-product cohomologically equivalent to the normal *-product.
Spectral approach to the scattering map for the semi-classical defocusing Davey–Stewartson II equation
2019
International audience; The inverse scattering approach for the defocusing Davey–Stewartson II equation is given by a system of D-bar equations. We present a numerical approach to semi-classical D-bar problems for real analytic rapidly decreasing potentials. We treat the D-bar problem as a complex linear second order integral equation which is solved with discrete Fourier transforms complemented by a regularization of the singular parts by explicit analytic computation. The resulting algebraic equation is solved either by fixed point iterations or GMRES. Several examples for small values of the semi-classical parameter in the system are discussed.
Appearances of pseudo-bosons from Black-Scholes equation
2016
It is a well known fact that the Black-Scholes equation admits an alternative representation as a Schr\"odinger equation expressed in terms of a non self-adjoint hamiltonian. We show how {\em pseudo-bosons}, linear or not, naturally arise in this context, and how they can be used in the computation of the pricing kernel.
On optimal estimates for the solutions of linear difference equations on the circle
1976
A linear difference equation arising in the proof of Moser's twist mapping theorem is solved and optimal estimates for the solution are established.
Navigationsformel zu A. Busemanns Variationsproblem der Raumfahrt
1970
Die Indikatrix des Variationsproblems wird auser durch die Storungsdifferentialgleichung fur die grose Halbachse und die Exzentrizitat durch einen Zusammenhang zwischen der Richtung des Impulsausstoses und der exzentrischen Anomalie gegeben. Die Hamilton-Gleichungen einer Extremalen reduzieren sich dann auf eine Navigationsgleichung. Die restlichen Storungsgleichungen fur die Perihellange und die mittlere Lange der Epoche geben schlieslich den sparsamsten zeitlichen Ablauf des Raketenausstoses.
Crowd-Averse Cyber-Physical Systems: The Paradigm of Robust Mean-Field Games
2016
For a networked controlled system, we illustrate the paradigm of robust mean-field games. This is a modeling framework at the interface of differential game theory, mathematical physics, and $H_{\infty}$ - optimal control that tries to capture the mutual influence between a crowd and its individuals. First, we establish a mean-field system for such games including the effects of adversarial disturbances. Second, we identify the optimal response of the individuals for a given population behavior. Third, we provide an analysis of equilibria and their stability.
