Subjects: subject: Analysis of PDEs (math.AP)
subject: FOS: Mathematics

description: The stochastic Allen-Cahn equation with multiplicative noise involves the nonlinear drift operator ${\mathscr A}(x) = Δx - \bigl(\vert x\vert^2 -1\bigr)x$. We use the fact that ${\mathscr A}(x) = -{\mathcal J}^{\prime}(x)$ satisfies a weak monotonicity property to deduce uniform bounds in strong norms for solutions of the temporal, as well as of the spatio-temporal discretization of the problem. This weak monotonicity property then allows for the estimate $ \underset{1 \leq j \leq J}\sup {\mathbb E}\bigl[ \Vert X_{t_j} - Y^j\Vert_{{\mathbb L}^2}^2\bigr] \leq C_δ(k^{1-δ} + h^2)$ for all small $δ>0$, where $X$ is the strong variational solution of the stochastic Allen-Cahn equation, while $\big\{Y^j:0\le j\le J\big\}$ solves a structure preserving finite element based space-time discretization of the problem on a temporal mesh $\{ t_j;\, 1 \leq j \leq J\}$ of size $k>0$ which covers $[0,T]$.

description: We have performed time-dependent wave packet simulations of realistic Aharonov-Bohm (AB) devices with a quantum dot embedded in one of the arms of the interferometer. The AB ring can function as a measurement device for the intrinsic transmission phase through the quantum dot, however, care has to be taken in analyzing the influence of scattering processes in the junctions of the interferometer arms. We consider a harmonic quantum dot and show how the Darwin-Fock spectrum emerges as a unique pattern in the interference fringes of the AB oscillations.

description: Texture is an important characteristic for many types of images. In recent years very discriminative and computationally efficient local texture descriptors based on local binary patterns (LBP) have been developed, which has led to significant progress in applying texture methods to different problems and applications. Due to this progress, the division between texture descriptors and more generic image or video descriptors has been disappearing. A large number of different variants of LBP have been developed to improve its robustness, and to increase its discriminative power and applicability to different types of problems. In this chapter, the most recent and important variants of LBP in 2D, spatiotemporal, 3D, and 4D domains are surveyed. Interesting new developments of LBP in 1D signal analysis are also considered. Finally, some future challenges for research are presented.

description: We introduce The Fabric of the Universe, an art and science collaboration focused on exploring the cosmic web of dark matter with unconventional techniques and materials. We discuss two of our projects in detail. First, we describe a pipeline for translating three-dimensional (3D) density structures from N-body simulations into solid surfaces suitable for 3D printing, and present prints of a cosmological volume and of the infall region around a massive cluster halo. In these models, we discover wall-like features that are invisible in two-dimensional projections. Going beyond the sheer visualization of simulation data, we undertake an exploration of the cosmic web as a three-dimensional woven textile. To this end, we develop experimental 3D weaving techniques to create sphere-like and filamentary shapes and radically simplify a region of the cosmic web into a set of filaments and halos. We translate the resulting tree structure into a series of commands that can be executed by a digital weaving machine, and present a large-scale textile installation.

Spherical analysis on homogeneous vector bundles of the 3-dimensional euclidean motion group

description: We consider $\mathbb{R}^3$ as a homogeneous manifold for the action of the motion group given by rotations and translations. For an arbitrary $τ\in \widehat{SO(3)}$, let $E_τ$ be the homogeneous vector bundle over $\mathbb{R}^3$ associated with $τ$. An interesting problem consists in studying the set of bounded linear operators over the sections of $E_τ$ that are invariant under the action of $SO(3)\ltimes \mathbb{R}^3$. Such operators are in correspondence with the $End(V_τ)$-valued, bi-$τ$-equivariant, integrable functions on $\mathbb{R}^3$ and they form a commutative algebra with the convolution product. We develop the spherical analysis on that algebra, explicitly computing the $τ$-spherical functions. We first present a set of generators of the algebra of $SO(3)\ltimes \mathbb{R}^3$-invariant differential operators on $E_τ$. We also give an explicit form for the $τ$-spherical Fourier transform, we deduce an inversion formula and we use it to give a characterization of $End(V_τ)$-valued, bi-$τ$-equivariant, functions on $\mathbb{R}^3$.
A Riemannian trust-region method for low-rank tensor completion

description: The goal of tensor completion is to fill in missing entries of a partially known tensor (possibly including some noise) under a low-rank constraint. This may be formulated as a least-squares problem. The set of tensors of a given multilinear rank is known to admit a Riemannian manifold structure, thus methods of Riemannian optimization are applicable. In our work, we derive the Riemannian Hessian of an objective function on the low-rank tensor manifolds using the Weingarten map, a concept from differential geometry. We discuss the convergence properties of Riemannian trust-region methods based on the exact Hessian and standard approximations, both theoretically and numerically. We compare our approach to Riemannian tensor completion methods from recent literature, both in terms of convergence behaviour and computational complexity. Our examples include the completion of randomly generated data with and without noise and recovery of multilinear data from survey statistics.

description: Network Function Virtualization (NFV) shed new light for the design, deployment, and management of cloud networks. Many network functions such as firewalls, load balancers, and intrusion detection systems can be virtualized by servers. However, network operators often have to sacrifice programmability in order to achieve high throughput, especially at networks' edge where complex network functions are required. Here, we design, implement, and evaluate Hybrid Modular Switch (HyMoS). The hybrid hardware/software switch is designed to meet requirements for modern-day NFV applications in providing high-throughput, with a high degree of programmability. HyMoS utilizes P4-compatible Network Interface Cards (NICs), PCI Express interface and CPU to act as line cards, switch fabric, and fabric controller respectively. In our implementation of HyMos, PCI Express interface is turned into a non-blocking switch fabric with a throughput of hundreds of Gigabits per second. Compared to existing NFV infrastructure, HyMoS offers modularity in hardware and software as well as a higher degree of programmability by supporting a superset of P4 language.

description: Fluid cow’s milk has long been a grocery staple for most U.S. households. However, as dietary habits change, individuals are drinking less milk on average. The USDA, Economic Research Service (ERS) Food Availability (Per Capita) Data System shows that U.S. daily per capita consumption of fluid milk decreased over each of the past seven decades. Between 1990 and 2000, it fell from 0.78 cup to 0.69 cup (an 11.5-percent decline). By 2010, it was down to 0.62 cup (10.1 percent lower than it had been in 2000). Compared with each of the previous six decades, U.S. daily per person fluid milk consumption fell at its fastest rate in the 2010s. In 2019, it was 0.49 cup (20.7 percent lower than in 2010).

Offshore wind farm layout optimization using mathematical programming techniques

description: Offshore wind power is a renewable energy of growing relevance in current electric energy systems, presenting favorable wind conditions in comparison with the sites on land. However, the higher energy yield has to compensate the increment in installation and maintenance costs, thus the importance of optimizing resources. One relevant aspect to increase profitability is the wind farm layout. The aim of this paper is to propose a new method to maximize the expected power production of offshore wind farms by setting the appropriate layout, i.e. minimizing the wake effects. The method uses a sequential procedure for global optimization consisting of two steps: i) an heuristic method to set an initial random layout configuration, and ii) the use of nonlinear mathematical programming techniques for local optimization, which use the random layout as an initial solution. The method takes full advantage of the most up-to-date mathematical programming techniques while performing a global optimization approach, which can be easily parallelized. The performance of the proposed procedure is tested using the German offshore wind farm Alpha Ventus, located in the North Sea, yielding an increment of expected annual power production of 3.52% with respect to the actual configuration. According to current electricity prices in Germany, this constitutes an expected profit increment of almost 1 M per year.

description: Electro-optical effect based liquid crystal devices have been extensively used in optical modulation techniques, in which the Kerr coefficient reflects the sensitivity of the liquid crystals and determines the strength of the device operational electric field. The Peterlin-Stuart theory and the O'Konski model jointly indicate that a giant Kerr coefficient could be obtained in a material with both a large geometrical anisotropy and an intrinsic polarization, but such a material is not yet reported. Here we reveal a ferroelectric effect in a monolayer two-dimensional mineral vermiculite. A large geometrical anisotropy factor and a large inherent electric dipole together raise the record value of Kerr coefficient by an order of magnitude, till $3.0\times 10^{-4}$ m V$^{-2}$. This finding enables an ultra-low operational electric field of $10^2$-$10^4$ V m$^{-1}$ and the fabrication of electro-optical devices with an inch-level electrode separation, which is not practical previously. Because of its high ultraviolet stability (decay <1% under ultraviolet exposure of 1000 hours), large-scale, and energy-efficiency, prototypical displayable billboards have been fabricated for outdoor interactive scenes. The work provides new insights for both liquid crystal optics and two-dimensional ferroelectrics.

description: In this work we have investigated, by fully atomistic reactive (force field ReaxFF) molecular dynamics simulations, some aspects of impact dynamics of water nanodroplets on graphdiyne-like membranes. We simulated graphdiyne-supported membranes impacted by nanodroplets at different velocities (from 100 up to 1500 m/s). The results show that due to the graphdiyne porous and elastic structure, the droplets present an impact dynamics very complex in relation to the ones observed for graphene membranes. Under impact the droplets spread over the surface with a maximum contact radius proportional to the impact velocity. Depending on the energy impact value, a number of water molecules were able to percolate (pass through) the nanopore sheets. However, even in these cases the droplet shape (liquid state) is preserved and the main differences between the different impact velocities cases reside on the splashing pattern at the maximum spreading.

description: Most of the traditional convolutional neural networks (CNNs) implements bottom-up approach (feed-forward) for image classifications. However, many scientific studies demonstrate that visual perception in primates rely on both bottom-up and top-down connections. Therefore, in this work, we propose a CNN network with feedback structure for Solar power plant detection on middle-resolution satellite images. To express the strength of the top-down connections, we introduce feedback CNN network (FB-Net) to a baseline CNN model used for solar power plant classification on multi-spectral satellite data. Moreover, we introduce a method to improve class activation mapping (CAM) to our FB-Net, which takes advantage of multi-channel pulse coupled neural network (m-PCNN) for weakly-supervised localization of the solar power plants from the features of proposed FB-Net. For the proposed FB-Net CAM with m-PCNN, experimental results demonstrated promising results on both solar-power plant image classification and detection task.

description: The National Association of Women Artists (NAWA) was established in 1889 and is the oldest professional women's fine arts organization in the United States. NAWA's mission is to promote awareness of, and interest in, visual art created by women in the United States. As part of this effort NAWA holds an annual exhibition of works by members of the association and publishes an exhibition catalog to accompany or commemorate the annual exhibitions. These catalogs not only function as an exhibition catalog, but also as a document that summarizes the structure, membership, and activities of the association.Information that can be found in these catalogs includes lists of officers, members of the executive board and committees, prize winners, lists of exhibitor and members, and images of some of the artwork exhibited. Catalogs from the 2000s also include information on NAWA events and activities beyond the annual exhibition.Please note that the numbering of the annual catalogs was adjusted in 1960 and again in 1971. For example, NAWA designated the annual exhibition in 1960 as the 70th Anniversary Exhibition after 1959 was the 67th Annual Exhibition. These adjustments appear to have been made to reflect the date of the founding of the association, so that, by 1989, the annual exhibition commemorated the 100-year anniversary of the founding of NAWA in 1889.

description: The fine details of the large-scale structure in the local universe provide important empirical benchmarks for testing cosmological models of structure formation. Dwarf galaxies are key object for such studies. Enlarge the sample of known dwarf galaxies in the local universe. We performed a search for faint, unresolved low-surface brightness dwarf galaxies in the M101 group complex, including the region around the major spiral galaxies M101, M51, and M63 lying at a distance 7.0, 8.6, and 9.0 Mpc, respectively. The new dwarf galaxy sample can be used in a first step to test for significant substructure in the 2D-distribution and in a second step to study the spatial distribution of the galaxy complex. Using filtering algorithms we surveyed 330 square degrees of imaging data obtained from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. The images were visually inspected. The spatial distribution of known galaxies and candidates was analyzed transforming the system into a M101 eigenframe, using the geometrical alignment of the group. We discovered 15 new dwarf galaxies and carried out surface photometry in the g and r bands. The similarity of the photometric properties of these dwarfs to those of Local Group dwarfs suggest membership to the M101 group complex. The sky distribution of the candidates follows the thin planar structure outlined by the known members of the three subgroups. The ~3Mpc long filamentary structure has a rms thickness of 67 kpc. The planar structure of the embedded M101 subgroup is even thinner, with rms=46 kpc. The formation of this structure might be due to the expansion of the Local Void to which it borders. Other implications are discussed as well. We show the viability of SDSS data to extend the sample of dwarfs in the local universe and test cosmological models on small scales.

description: The National Association of Women Artists (NAWA) was established in 1889 and is the oldest professional women's fine arts organization in the United States. NAWA's mission is to promote awareness of, and interest in, visual art created by women in the United States. As part of this effort NAWA holds an annual exhibition of works by members of the association and publishes an exhibition catalog to accompany or commemorate the annual exhibitions. These catalogs not only function as an exhibition catalog, but also as a document that summarizes the structure, membership, and activities of the association.Information that can be found in these catalogs includes lists of officers, members of the executive board and committees, prize winners, lists of exhibitor and members, and images of some of the artwork exhibited. Catalogs from the 2000s also include information on NAWA events and activities beyond the annual exhibition.Please note that the numbering of the annual catalogs was adjusted in 1960 and again in 1971. For example, NAWA designated the annual exhibition in 1960 as the 70th Anniversary Exhibition after 1959 was the 67th Annual Exhibition. These adjustments appear to have been made to reflect the date of the founding of the association, so that, by 1989, the annual exhibition commemorated the 100-year anniversary of the founding of NAWA in 1889.

description: "EIT waves" are freely-propagating global pulses in the low corona which are strongly associated with the initial evolution of coronal mass ejections (CMEs). They are thought to be large-amplitude, fast-mode magnetohydrodynamic waves initially driven by the rapid expansion of a CME in the low corona. An "EIT wave" was observed on 6 July 2012 to impact an adjacent trans-equatorial loop system which then exhibited a decaying oscillation as it returned to rest. Observations of the loop oscillations were used to estimate the magnetic field strength of the loop system by studying the decaying oscillation of the loop, measuring the propagation of ubiquitous transverse waves in the loop and extrapolating the magnetic field from observed magnetograms. Observations from the Atmospheric Imaging Assembly onboard the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO/AIA) and the Coronal Multi-channel Polarimeter (CoMP) were used to study the event. An Empirical Mode Decomposition analysis was used to characterise the oscillation of the loop system in CoMP Doppler velocity and line width and in AIA intensity. The loop system was shown to oscillate in the 2nd harmonic mode rather than at the fundamental frequency, with the seismological analysis returning an estimated magnetic field strength of ~5.5+/-1.5 G. This compares to the magnetic field strength estimates of ~1-9 G and ~3-9 G found using the measurements of transverse wave propagation and magnetic field extrapolation respectively.

description: The dynamics of interacting quantized vortex filaments in a rotating trapped Bose-Einstein condensate, which is in the Thomas-Fermi regime at zero temperature and described by the Gross-Pitaevskii equation, is considered in the hydrodynamic "anelastic" approximation. In the presence of a smoothly inhomogeneous array of filaments (vortex lattice), a non-canonical Hamiltonian equation of motion is derived for the macroscopically averaged vorticity, with taking into account the spatial non-uniformity of the equilibrium condensate density determined by the trap potential. A minimum of the corresponding Hamiltonian describes a static configuration of deformed vortex lattice against a given density background. The minimum condition is reduced to a vector nonlinear partial differential equation of the second order, for which some approximate and exact solutions are found. It is shown that if the condensate density has an anisotropic Gaussian profile then equation of motion for the averaged vorticity admits solutions in the form of a spatially uniform vector with a nontrivial time dependence. An integral representation is obtained for the matrix Green function determining the non-local Hamiltonian of a system of arbitrary shaped vortex filaments in a condensate with Gaussian density. ... A simple approximate expression for the two-dimensional Green function is suggested at rather arbitrary density profile, and its successful comparison to the exact result in the Gaussian case is done. Approximate equations of motion are derived which describe a long-wave dynamics of interacting vortex filaments in condensates with the density depending on the transverse coordinates only.

description: Environmental justice (EJ) is the equitable treatment and meaningful participation of all people in the creation, implementation, and enforcement of environmental laws, regulations, and policies, regardless of their race, colour, national origin, or level of income. The right to be free from ecological harm is upheld by environmental justice, which also defends the sanctity of Mother Earth, ecological unity, and the interconnectedness of all species. With regard to the removal of hazardous waste, resource extraction, appropriation of land, and other activities, the environmental justice movement aims to overcome environmental racism and discrimination. There is evidence, for instance, that the Romani people and other minorities of non-European heritage face environmental discrimination and inequality in Europe. Campaign participation is extremely widespread.
CHARACTERIZATION AND FUNCTIONAL RELEVANCE OF A NEWLY DISCLOSED SUBSET OF NCRPOS GAMMA/DELTA T CELLS NATURALLY RESIDENT IN HUMAN INTESTINE.

description: gd T cells display a broad array of anti-tumor functions by combining their rapid innate-like cytotoxic response with secretion of immunoregulatory cytokines, such as IFN-g. Intestinal intraepithelial lymphocytes (IELs) are particularly enriched of gd T cells; however, data regarding specific gd T subsets in homeostatic and pathological conditions of human intestine are lacking. Therefore, by a multiparametric flow cytometry approach, we identified a novel human specific intestinal gd IELs population constitutively expressing Natural Killer (NK) cell-specific cytotoxic receptors (NCRs), in association with several immune-regulating molecules including: CD56, CD8, CD28, NKG2C and NKG2D. Expression of NKp46 was restricted to Vd1pos (but not Vd2pos) gd IELs and proved to be the dominant NCR compared to the lower level of NKp44 and almost undetectable expression of NKp30. The NKp46pos/Vd1pos subset has gut-specific residency rather than systemic tissue distribution since no other analyzed human specimens, such as liver or lymph nodes showed expression of NCRs on gd T cells. Moreover, we found no immune counterpart of the human NKp46pos/gdT cell subset in different anatomical sites of BALB/c or C57BL/6 mouse strains. NKp46pos IELs reflects functionally higher anti-tumor activity compared to their NKp46negcounterpart as evaluated by increased synthesis of both granzyme B (GRZ-B) and IFN-g. The specific NKp46pos phenotype is a feature of IL2/IL15-induced human thymic gd T precursors that consecutively acquire anti-tumor activity. In addition, elevated occurrence of the intestinal NKp46pos/Vd1pos T cell subset correlates with significantly lower tumor progression in patients with colorectal carcinoma (CRC). On the other hand, the tumor microenvironment negatively controls the incidence of both Vd1 and NKp46pos subset compared to the specific intestinal intraepithelial anatomical site. Collectively, this work identifies a novel human gut-specific differentiated NKp46pos phenotype with multifunctional immunoregulatory and cytotoxic anti-tumor activity, and with the potential to represent a prognostic marker of human CRC pathology.

description: La ricerca presenta ed approfondisce il pensiero dell?abate giansenista Pietro Tamburini (Brescia 1737- Pavia 1827), figura fino ad oggi poco analizzata secondo una specifica prospettiva storico- giuridica nonostante il ruolo ricoperto da Tamburini come docente di diritto all?Universit� di Pavia e l?importanza delle sue opere nel dibattito etico- giuridico a cavaliere tra XVIII e XIX secolo. Attraverso lo studio delle sue numerose opere a stampa ed il vaglio di fonti archivistiche manoscritte -in parte inedite- si propone al lettore una analisi bifocale: da una parte, la riflessione giurisdizionalista e, dall?altra, quella giusnaturalistica. Sotto il primo versante si analizzano i temi della tolleranza ecclesiastica e civile in materia religiosa e della configurazione contrattuale civilistica del matrimonio in diretto parallelismo alla politica anticurialistica posta in essere nella seconda met� del Settecento dall?imperatore asburgico Giuseppe II. Sotto il secondo versante si pone attenzione allo studio del rapporto tra �stato di natura� e �stato sociale� alla base della rilettura dei concetti di �contratto sociale� e di sovranit�. Vengono inoltre approfonditi i diritti e doveri naturali dell?uomo, la propriet� personale e reale, il diritto alla eguaglianza sino alla disamina delle obbligazioni di natura convenzionale da cui emerge una profonda influenza del giurista giansenista francese Jean Domat.
