Rationality and normal 2-complements
2008
Abstract We study the finite groups in which every irreducible rational valued character is linear, and those in which every rational element is central.
A procedure to calculate the I–V characteristics of thin-film photovoltaic modules using an explicit rational form
2015
Abstract Accurate models of the electrical behaviour of photovoltaic modules are effective tools for system design. One or two diode equivalent circuits have been widely used even though some mathematical difficulties were found dealing with implicit equations. In this paper, a new model based on a simple rational function, which does not contain any implicit exponential form, is presented. The model was conceived in order to be used with thin-film photovoltaic modules, whose current–voltage curves are characterised by very smooth shapes. The parameters of the model are evaluated by means of the derivatives of the issued characteristics in the short circuit and open circuit points at standa…
Indefinite integrals of incomplete elliptic integrals from Jacobi elliptic functions
2017
Integration formulas are derived for the three canonical Legendre elliptic integrals. These formulas are obtained from the differential equations satified by these elliptic integrals when the indep...
Indefinite integrals involving the Jacobi Zeta and Heuman Lambda functions
2017
ABSTRACTJacobian elliptic functions are used to obtain formulas for deriving indefinite integrals for the Jacobi Zeta function and Heuman's Lambda function. Only sample results are presented, mostly obtained from powers of the twelve Glaisher elliptic functions. However, this sample includes all such integrals in the literature, together with many new integrals. The method used is based on the differential equations obeyed by these functions when the independent variable is the argument u of elliptic function theory. The same method was used recently, in a companion paper, to derive similar integrals for the three canonical incomplete elliptic integrals.
MultivariateApart: Generalized partial fractions
2021
We present a package to perform partial fraction decompositions of multivariate rational functions. The algorithm allows to systematically avoid spurious denominator factors and is capable of producing unique results also when being applied to terms of a sum separately. The package is designed to work in Mathematica, but also provides interfaces to the Form and Singular computer algebra systems.
On the hyperbolicity of certain models of polydisperse sedimentation
2012
The sedimentation of a polydisperse suspension of small spherical particles dispersed in a viscous fluid, where particles belong to N species differing in size, can be described by a strongly coupled system of N scalar, nonlinear first-order conservation laws for the evolution of the volume fractions. The hyperbolicity of this system is a property of theoretical importance because it limits the range of validity of the model and is of practical interest for the implementation of numerical methods. The present work, which extends the results of R. Burger, R. Donat, P. Mulet, and C.A. Vega (SIAM Journal on Applied Mathematics 2010; 70:2186–2213), is focused on the fluxes corresponding to the …
Model predictive control for continuous lactide ring‐opening polymerization processes
2020
International audience; Polylactic acid (PLA) is an attractive environment-friendly thermoplastic that is bio-sourced and biodegradable. PLA is industrially produced by the ring-opening polymerization of Lactide. This reaction is sensitive to drifts in the operating conditions and impurities in the raw materials that may affect the reaction rate as well as the polymer properties, which can be very costly in continuous processes. It is therefore crucial to employ a control strategy that allows recovering the nominal conditions and maintaining the desired properties and conversion level in case of drift. Three control strategies are discussed in this paper: Proportional-Integral controller (P…
A-Codes from Rational Functions over Galois Rings
2006
In this paper, we describe authentication codes via (generalized) Gray images of suitable codes over Galois rings. Exponential sums over these rings help determine--or bound--the parameters of such codes.
Bi-homogeneity and integrability of rational potentials
2020
Abstract In this paper we consider natural Hamiltonian systems with two degrees of freedom for which Hamiltonian function has the form H = 1 2 ( p 1 2 + p 2 2 ) + V ( q 1 , q 2 ) and potential V ( q 1 , q 2 ) is a rational function. Necessary conditions for the integrability of such systems are deduced from integrability of dominate term of the potential which usually is appropriately chosen homogeneous term of V. We show that introducing weights compatible with the canonical structure one can find new dominant terms which can give new necessary conditions for integrability. To deduce them we investigate integrability of a family of bi-homogeneous potentials which depend on two integer para…
Integral Reduction with Kira 2.0 and Finite Field Methods
2021
We present the new version 2.0 of the Feynman integral reduction program Kira and describe the new features. The primary new feature is the reconstruction of the final coefficients in integration-by-parts reductions by means of finite field methods with the help of FireFly. This procedure can be parallelized on computer clusters with MPI. Furthermore, the support for user-provided systems of equations has been significantly improved. This mode provides the flexibility to integrate Kira into projects that employ specialized reduction formulas, direct reduction of amplitudes, or to problems involving linear system of equations not limited to relations among standard Feynman integrals. We show…
