Gauge integrals and selections of weakly compact valued multifunctions
2016
In the paper Henstock, McShane, Birkhoff and variationally multivalued integrals are studied for multifunctions taking values in the hyperspace of convex and weakly compact subsets of a general Banach space X. In particular the existence of selections integrable in the same sense of the corresponding multifunctions has been considered.
How costly are debt crises?
2011
The aim of this paper is to assess the short- and medium-term impact of debt crises on GDP. Using an unbalanced panel of 154 countries from 1970 to 2008, the paper shows that debt crises produce significant and long-lasting output losses, reducing output by about 10 percent after eight years. The results also suggest that debt crises tend to be more detrimental than banking and currency crises. The significance of the results is robust to different specifications, identification and endogeneity checks, and datasets.
Self-stabilizing processes: uniqueness problem for stationary measures and convergence rate in the small-noise limit
2011
In the context of self-stabilizing processes, that is processes attracted by their own law, living in a potential landscape, we investigate different properties of the invariant measures. The interaction between the process and its law leads to nonlinear stochastic differential equations. In [S. Herrmann and J. Tugaut. Electron. J. Probab. 15 (2010) 2087–2116], the authors proved that, for linear interaction and under suitable conditions, there exists a unique symmetric limit measure associated to the set of invariant measures in the small-noise limit. The aim of this study is essentially to point out that this statement leads to the existence, as the noise intensity is small, of one unique…
Convergence for varying measures in the topological case
2023
In this paper convergence theorems for sequences of scalar, vector and multivalued Pettis integrable functions on a topological measure space are proved for varying measures vaguely convergent.
Echovirus 1 infection depends on biogenesis of novel multivesicular bodies
2011
Summary Non-enveloped picornavirus echovirus 1 (EV1) clusters its receptor α2β1 integrin and causes their internalization and accumulation in α2β1 integrin enriched multivesicular bodies (α2-MVBs). Our results here show that these α2-MVBs are distinct from acidic late endosomes/lysosomes by several criteria: (i) live intra-endosomal pH measurements show that α2-MVBs are not acidic, (ii) they are not positive for the late endosomal marker LBPA or Dil-LDL internalized to lysosomes, and (iii) simultaneous stimulation of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and α2β1 integrin clustering leads to their accumulation in separate endosomes. EGFR showed downregulation between 15 min and 2 h, where…
Planar maps whose second iterate has a unique fixed point
2007
Let a>0, F: R^2 -> R^2 be a differentiable (not necessarily C^1) map and Spec(F) be the set of (complex) eigenvalues of the derivative F'(p) when p varies in R^2. (a) If Spec(F) is disjoint of the interval [1,1+a[, then Fix(F) has at most one element, where Fix(F) denotes the set of fixed points of F. (b) If Spec(F) is disjoint of the real line R, then Fix(F^2) has at most one element. (c) If F is a C^1 map and, for all p belonging to R^2, the derivative F'(p) is neither a homothety nor has simple real eigenvalues, then Fix(F^2) has at most one element, provided that Spec(F) is disjoint of either (c1) the union of the number 0 with the intervals ]-\infty, -1] and [1,\infty[, or (c2) t…
Mass transport problems obtained as limits of p-Laplacian type problems with spatial dependence
2014
Abstract. We consider the following problem: given a bounded convex domain Ω ⊂ ℝ N ${\Omega \subset \mathbb {R}^N}$ we consider the limit as p → ∞ of solutions to - div ( b p - p | D u | p - 2 D u ) = f + - f - ${- \operatorname{div} (b_{p}^{-p} |Du|^{p-2} Du)=f_+ - f_-}$ in Ω and b p - p | D u | p - 2 ∂ u ∂ η = 0 ${ b_{p}^{-p} |Du|^{p-2} \frac{\partial u}{\partial \eta }=0}$ on ∂ Ω ${\partial \Omega }$ . Under appropriate assumptions on the coefficients bp that in particular verify that lim p → ∞ b p = b ${ \lim _{p\rightarrow \infty } b_p = b }$ uniformly in Ω ¯ ${\overline{\Omega }}$ , we prove that there is a uniform limit of u p j ${u_{p_j}}$ (along a sequence p j → ∞ ${p_j \rightarrow…
Blow-up collocation solutions of nonlinear homogeneous Volterra integral equations
2011
In this paper, collocation methods are used for detecting blow-up solutions of nonlinear homogeneous Volterra-Hammerstein integral equations. To do this, we introduce the concept of "blow-up collocation solution" and analyze numerically some blow-up time estimates using collocation methods in particular examples where previous results about existence and uniqueness can be applied. Finally, we discuss the relationships between necessary conditions for blow-up of collocation solutions and exact solutions.
Pricing of Forwards and Options in a Multivariate Non-Gaussian Stochastic Volatility Model for Energy Markets
2013
In Benth and Vos (2013) we introduced a multivariate spot price model with stochastic volatility for energy markets which captures characteristic features, such as price spikes, mean reversion, stochastic volatility, and inverse leverage effect as well as dependencies between commodities. In this paper we derive the forward price dynamics based on our multivariate spot price model, providing a very flexible structure for the forward curves, including contango, backwardation, and hump shape. Moreover, a Fourier transform-based method to price options on the forward is described.
Modular Calabi-Yau threefolds of level eight
2005
In the studies on the modularity conjecture for rigid Calabi-Yau threefolds several examples with the unique level 8 cusp form were constructed. According to the Tate Conjecture correspondences inducing isomorphisms on the middle cohomologies should exist between these varieties. In the paper we construct several examples of such correspondences. In the constructions elliptic fibrations play a crucial role. In fact we show that all but three examples are in some sense built upon two modular curves from the Beauville list.
