On the Cauchy problem for microlocally symmetrizable hyperbolic systems with log-Lipschitz coefficients
2017
International audience; The present paper concerns the well-posedness of the Cauchy problem for microlocally symmetrizable hyperbolic systems whose coefficients and symmetrizer are log-Lipschitz continuous, uniformly in time and space variables. For the global in space problem we establish energy estimates with finite loss of derivatives, which is linearly increasing in time. This implies well-posedness in H ∞ , if the coefficients enjoy enough smoothness in x. From this result, by standard arguments (i.e. extension and convexification) we deduce also local existence and uniqueness. A huge part of the analysis is devoted to give an appropriate sense to the Cauchy problem, which is not evide…
Markov extensions for multi-dimensional dynamical systems
1999
By a result of F. Hofbauer [11], piecewise monotonic maps of the interval can be identified with topological Markov chains with respect to measures with large entropy. We generalize this to arbitrary piecewise invertible dynamical systems under the following assumption: the total entropy of the system should be greater than the topological entropy of the boundary of some reasonable partition separating almost all orbits. We get a sufficient condition for these maps to have a finite number of invariant and ergodic probability measures with maximal entropy. We illustrate our results by quoting an application to a class of multi-dimensional, non-linear, non-expansive smooth dynamical systems.
On density and π-weight of Lp(βN,R, μ)
2012
In Integration Theory, it is important to establish the separability or not of Lebesgue spaces of the type Lp, with 1 ≤ p < +∞. In general, the usual proof of this type of results for certain Lebesgue spaces, is conducted through methods of Real Analysis. In this work, we use some concepts and methods of pure General Topology in proving the non-separability of a particular Lebesgue space. Further, we provide some estimates for density and π-weight of such a space.
Trace Operators on Regular Trees
2020
Abstract We consider different notions of boundary traces for functions in Sobolev spaces defined on regular trees and show that the almost everywhere existence of these traces is independent of the chosen definition of a trace.
Lévy flights and Lévy-Schrödinger semigroups
2010
We analyze two different confining mechanisms for L\'{e}vy flights in the presence of external potentials. One of them is due to a conservative force in the corresponding Langevin equation. Another is implemented by Levy-Schroedinger semigroups which induce so-called topological Levy processes (Levy flights with locally modified jump rates in the master equation). Given a stationary probability function (pdf) associated with the Langevin-based fractional Fokker-Planck equation, we demonstrate that generically there exists a topological L\'{e}vy process with the very same invariant pdf and in the reverse.
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 > 0. We prove both existence and nonexistence of solutions depending on the value of γ and on the size of g.
RabbitQC: high-speed scalable quality control for sequencing data
2019
Abstract Motivation Modern sequencing technologies continue to revolutionize many areas of biology and medicine. Since the generated datasets are error-prone, downstream applications usually require quality control methods to pre-process FASTQ files. However, existing tools for this task are currently not able to fully exploit the capabilities of computing platforms leading to slow runtimes. Results We present RabbitQC, an extremely fast integrated quality control tool for FASTQ files, which can take full advantage of modern hardware. It includes a variety of operations and supports different sequencing technologies (Illumina, Oxford Nanopore and PacBio). RabbitQC achieves speedups between …
On using novel “Anti-Bayesian” techniques for the classification of dynamical data streams
2017
The classification of dynamical data streams is among the most complex problems encountered in classification. This is, firstly, because the distribution of the data streams is non-stationary, and it changes without any prior “warning”. Secondly, the manner in which it changes is also unknown. Thirdly, and more interestingly, the model operates with the assumption that the correct classes of previously-classified patterns become available at a juncture after their appearance. This paper pioneers the use of unreported novel schemes that can classify such dynamical data streams by invoking the recently-introduced “Anti-Bayesian” (AB) techniques. Contrary to the Bayesian paradigm, that compare…
A nanodosimetric model of radiation-induced clustered DNA damage yields
2010
International audience; We present a nanodosimetric model for predicting the yield of double strand breaks (DSBs) and non-DSB clustered damages induced in irradiated DNA. The model uses experimental ionization cluster size distributions measured in a gas model by an ion counting nanodosimeter or, alternatively, distributions simulated by a Monte Carlo track structure code developed to simulate the nanodosimeter. The model is based on a straightforward combinatorial approach translating ionizations, as measured or simulated in a sensitive gas volume, to lesions in a DNA segment of one-two helical turns considered equivalent to the sensitive volume of the nanodosimeter. The two model paramete…
Dynamic force spectroscopy: analysis of reversible bond-breaking dynamics
2008
The problem of diffusive bond-dissociation in a double well potential under application of an external force is scrutinized. We compute the probability distribution of rupture forces and present a detailed discussion of the influence of finite rebinding probabilities on the dynamic force spectrum. In particular, we focus on barrier crossing upon extension, i.e. under linearly increased load, and upon relaxation starting from completely separated bonds. For large loading rates the rupture force and the rejoining force depend on the loading rate in the expected manner determined by the shape of the potential. For small loading rates the mean forces obtained from pull and relax modes approach …
