Complex Systems: an Interdisciplinary Approach
2011
Two main peculiarities characterize complex systems: the nonlinearity and the noisy environmental interaction. The comprehension of noise role in the dynamics of nonlinear systems plays a key aspect in the efforts devoted to understand and model so-called complex systems.
On the improved Estimation of the Compliance-Parameters of the Physiologically Closed Cardiovascular System
1987
The influence of the type of the sampling-schedule and of the system-excitation with respect to identifiability and estimation-accuracy of the compliance-parameters of a nonlinear model of the physiologically closed cardiovascular system will be investigated. Using the sensitivity-functions of the arterial systemic pressure with respect to the compliance-parameters it will be shown how to select the sample-schedule and system-excitation in order to get optimal estimation-accuracy.
Approximation of piecewise smooth functions and images by edge-adapted (ENO-EA) nonlinear multiresolution techniques
2008
Abstract This paper introduces and analyzes new approximation procedures for bivariate functions. These procedures are based on an edge-adapted nonlinear reconstruction technique which is an intrinsically two-dimensional extension of the essentially non-oscillatory and subcell resolution techniques introduced in the one-dimensional setting by Harten and Osher. Edge-adapted reconstructions are tailored to piecewise smooth functions with geometrically smooth edge discontinuities, and are therefore attractive for applications such as image compression and shock computations. The local approximation order is investigated both in L p and in the Hausdorff distance between graphs. In particular, i…
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.
Efficient formulation of a two-noded geometrically exact curved beam element
2021
The article extends the formulation of a 2D geometrically exact beam element proposed by Jirasek et al. (2021) to curved elastic beams. This formulation is based on equilibrium equations in their integrated form, combined with the kinematic relations and sectional equations that link the internal forces to sectional deformation variables. The resulting first-order differential equations are approximated by the finite difference scheme and the boundary value problem is converted to an initial value problem using the shooting method. The article develops the theoretical framework based on the Navier-Bernoulli hypothesis, with a possible extension to shear-flexible beams. Numerical procedures …
Rational solutions to the KPI equation from particular polynomials
2022
Abstract We construct solutions to the Kadomtsev–Petviashvili equation (KPI) from particular polynomials. We obtain rational solutions written as a second spatial derivative of a logarithm of a determinant of order n . We obtain with this method an infinite hierarchy of rational solutions to the KPI equation. We give explicitly the expressions of these solutions for the first five orders.
Uniqueness of solutions for some elliptic equations with a quadratic gradient term
2008
We study a comparison principle and uniqueness of positive solutions for the homogeneous Dirichlet boundary value problem associated to quasi-linear elliptic equations with lower order terms. A model example is given by −Δu + λ |∇u| 2 u r = f (x) ,λ , r >0. The main feature of these equations consists in having a quadratic gradient term in which singularities are allowed. The arguments employed here also work to deal with equations having lack of ellipticity or some dependence on u in the right hand side. Furthermore, they could be applied to obtain uniqueness results for nonlinear equations having the p-Laplacian operator as the principal part. Our results improve those already known, even…
The rate of multiplicity of the roots of nonlinear equations and its application to iterative methods
2015
Nonsimple roots of nonlinear equations present some challenges for classic iterative methods, such as instability or slow, if any, convergence. As a consequence, they require a greater computational cost, depending on the knowledge of the order of multiplicity of the roots. In this paper, we introduce dimensionless function, called rate of multiplicity, which estimates the order of multiplicity of the roots, as a dynamic global concept, in order to accelerate iterative processes. This rate works not only with integer but also fractional order of multiplicity and even with poles (negative order of multiplicity).
On regularity up to the boundary of solutions to a system of degenerate nonlinear elliptic fourth-order equations
2008
Under some hypotheses on weighted functions, using the interior regularity results established in (Kovalevsky, A. and Nicolosi, F., 2005, Existence and regularity of solutions to a system of degenerate nonlinear fourth-order equations. Nonlinear Analysis, 61, 281–307) and estimating the oscillation of solutions near the boundary of Ω, we establish results on regularity up to the boundary of a solutions of the system (1.1).
