NUMERICAL IMPLEMENTATION OF A K.A.M. ALGORITHM

1993

We discuss a numerical implementation of a K.A.M. algorithm to determine invariant tori, for systems that are quadratic in the action variables. The method has the advantage that the iteration procedure does not produce higher order terms in the actions, allowing thus a systematic control of the convergence.

Symmetry-based canonical dressing of a bidimensionally trapped and laser-driven ion

2001

Abstract We present a detailed and exact construction of a unitary operator accomplishing the diagonalization of an effective quadratic radiation-matter interaction model describing a bidimensionally trapped and appropriately laser-driven ion. The possibility of applying the same mathematical method to other effective radiation-matter interaction model is briefly put into evidence.

Comments on `A new efficient method for calculating perturbation energies using functions which are not quadratically integrable'

1996

The recently proposed method of calculating perturbation energies using a non-normalizable wavefunction by Skala and Cizek is analysed and rigorously proved.

Quasi-linear parabolic equations with degenerate coercivity having a quadratic gradient term

2006

We study existence and regularity of distributional solutions for possibly degenerate quasi-linear parabolic problems having a first order term which grows quadratically in the gradient. The model problem we refer to is the following (1){ut−div(α(u)∇u)=β(u)|∇u|2+f(x,t),in Ω×]0,T[;u(x,t)=0,on ∂Ω×]0,T[;u(x,0)=u0(x),in Ω. Here Ω is a bounded open set in RN, T>0. The unknown function u=u(x,t) depends on x∈Ω and t∈]0,T[. The symbol ∇u denotes the gradient of u with respect to x. The real functions α, β are continuous; moreover α is positive, bounded and may vanish at ±∞. As far as the data are concerned, we require the following assumptions: ∫ΩΦ(u0(x))dx<∞ where Φ is a convenient function which …

On the accurate determination of nonisolated solutions of nonlinear equations

1981

A simple but efficient method to obtain accurate solutions of a system of nonlinear equations with a singular Jacobian at the solution is presented. This is achieved by enlarging the system to a higher dimensional one whose solution in question is isolated. Thus it can be computed e. g. by Newton's method, which is locally at least quadratically convergent and selfcorrecting, so that high accuracy is attainable.

Quantum walk on the line through potential barriers

2015

Quantum walks are well-known for their ballistic dispersion, traveling $\Theta(t)$ away in $t$ steps, which is quadratically faster than a classical random walk's diffusive spreading. In physical implementations of the walk, however, the particle may need to tunnel through a potential barrier to hop, and a naive calculation suggests this could eliminate the ballistic transport. We show by explicit calculation, however, that such a loss does not occur. Rather, the $\Theta(t)$ dispersion is retained, with only the coefficient changing, which additionally gives a way to detect and quantify the hopping errors in experiments.

Quasilinear elliptic equations with singular quadratic growth terms

2011

In this paper, we deal with positive solutions for singular quasilinear problems whose model is [Formula: see text] where Ω is a bounded open set of ℝN, g ≥ 0 is a function in some Lebesgue space, and γ &gt; 0. We prove both existence and nonexistence of solutions depending on the value of γ and on the size of g.

1982

The molecular weight distribution (MWD) of a high polymer is calculated from a weakly perturbed Zimm-plot of the classical light scattering on dilute solutions of Gaussian polymer coils (theta state). A typical Zimm-plot is simulated corresponding to the measurements of high accuracy as would be obtained by using the laser photometer described by Hack and Meyerhoff. The accuracy as published by these authors for small dissymmetries is used. Two numerical methods for calculating the MWD are briefly described and tested, both using an empirical formula for the Laplace image of the calculated MWD.

Experimental study of bifurcations in modified FitzHugh-Nagumo cell

2003

A nonlinear electrical circuit is proposed as a basic cell for modelling the FitzHugh-Nagumo equation with a modified excitability. Depending on initial conditions and parameters, experiments show various dynamics including stability with excitation threshold, bistability and oscillations.
