Wellposedness of the 2D full water wave equation in a regime that allows for non-$C^1$ interfaces

Year: 2018
Subjects: subject: Analysis of PDEs (math.AP)
subject: FOS: Mathematics

description: We consider the two dimensional gravity water wave equation in a regime where the free interface is allowed to be non-$C^1$. In this regime, only a degenerate Taylor inequality $-\frac{\partial P}{\partial \bf n}\ge 0$ holds, with degeneracy at the singularities. In \cite{kw} an energy functional $\mathcal E(t)$ was constructed and an a-prori estimate was proved. The energy functional $\mathcal E(t)$ is not only finite for interfaces and velocities in Sobolev spaces, but also finite for a class of non-$C^1$ interfaces with angled crests. In this paper we prove the existence, uniqueness and stability of the solution of the 2d gravity water wave equation in the class where $\mathcal E(t)

High Precision Renormalization Group Study of the Roughening Transition

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Lattice (hep-lat)

description: We confirm the Kosterlitz-Thouless scenario of the roughening transition for three different Solid-On-Solid models: the Discrete Gaussian model, the Absolute-Value-Solid-On-Solid model and the dual transform of the XY model with standard (cosine) action. The method is based on a matching of the renormalization group flow of the candidate models with the flow of a bona fide KT model, the exactly solvable BCSOS model. The Monte Carlo simulations are performed using efficient cluster algorithms. We obtain high precision estimates for the critical couplings and other non-universal quantities. For the XY model with cosine action our critical coupling estimate is $β_R^{XY}=1.1197(5)$. For the roughening coupling of the Discrete Gaussian and the Absolute-Value-Solid-On-Solid model we find $K_R^{DG}=0.6645(6)$ and $K_R^{ASOS}=0.8061(3)$, respectively.

description: Given a volume preserving dynamical system with non-compact phase space, one is sometimes interested in special subsets of its wandering set. One example from celestial mechanics is the set of initial values leading to collision. Another one is the set of initial values of semi-orbits, whose asymptotic velocity does not exist as a limit. We introduce techniques that can be helpful in showing that these sets are of measure zero: by defining a sequence of hypersurfaces, that are eventually hit by each of those semi-orbits and whose total surface area decreases to zero.

On Robust Computation of Koopman Operator and Prediction in Random Dynamical Systems

name: Vaidya, Umesh
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2018
Subjects: subject: Optimization and Control (math.OC)
subject: FOS: Mathematics

description: In the paper, we consider the problem of robust approximation of transfer Koopman and Perron-Frobenius (P-F) operators from noisy time series data. In most applications, the time-series data obtained from simulation or experiment is corrupted with either measurement or process noise or both. The existing results show the applicability of algorithms developed for the finite dimensional approximation of deterministic system to a random uncertain case. However, these results hold true only in asymptotic and under the assumption of infinite data set. In practice the data set is finite, and hence it is important to develop algorithms that explicitly account for the presence of uncertainty in data-set. We propose a robust optimization-based framework for the robust approximation of the transfer operators, where the uncertainty in data-set is treated as deterministic norm bounded uncertainty. The robust optimization leads to a min-max type optimization problem for the approximation of transfer operators. This robust optimization problem is shown to be equivalent to regularized least square problem. This equivalence between robust optimization problem and regularized least square problem allows us to comment on various interesting properties of the obtained solution using robust optimization. In particular, the robust optimization formulation captures inherent tradeoffs between the quality of approximation and complexity of approximation. These tradeoffs are necessary to balance for the proposed application of transfer operators, for the design of optimal predictor. Simulation results demonstrate that our proposed robust approximation algorithm performs better than the Extended Dynamic Mode Decomposition (EDMD) and DMD algorithms for a system with process and measurement noise.

Duality Symmetries from Non--Abelian Isometries in String Theories

description: In string theory it is known that abelian isometries in the sigma model lead to target space duality. We generalize this duality to backgrounds with non--abelian isometries. The procedure we follow consists of gauging the isometries of the original action and constraining the field strength $F$ to vanish. This new action generates dual theories by integrating over either the Lagrange multipliers that set F=0 or the gauge fields. We find that this new duality transformation maps spaces with non--abelian isometries to spaces that may have no isometries at all. This suggests that duality symmetries in string theories need to be understood in a more general context without regard to the existence of continuous isometries on the target space (this is also indicated by the existence of duality in string compactifications on Calabi--Yau manifolds which have no continuous isometries). Physically interesting examples to which our formalism apply are the Schwarzschild metric and the 4D charged dilatonic black hole. For these spherically symmetric black holes in four dimensions, the dual backgrounds are presented and explicitly shown to be new solutions of the leading order string equations. Some of these new backgrounds are found to have no continuous isometries (except for time translations) and also have naked singularities.

description: The demonstration of a quasi-two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) and superconducting properties in LaAlO$_3$/SrTiO$_3$ heterostructures has stimulated intense research activity in recent ten years. The 2DEG has unique properties that are promising for applications in all-oxide electronic devices. The superconductivity in such heterostructures has been observed below 300 mK. For superconductivity applications it is desirable to have more wide temperature of the existence range and the ability to control superconductivity properties by external stimulus. Based on first-principles calculations and theoretical consideration we show that all-oxide heterostructures incorporating ferroelectric constituent, such as BaTiO$_3$/La$_2$CuO$_4$, allow creating 2DEG. We predict a possibility of a high temperature guasi-two-dimensional superconductivity state. This state could be switchable between superconducting and conducting states by ferroelectric polarization reversal. We also discuss that such structures must be more simple for preparation. The proposed concept of ferroelectrically controlled interface superconductivity offers the possibility to design novel electronic devices.

Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.

Moreover the penetration length scales according to asymptotic freedom. We put out a simple relation between the penetration length and the string tension.

description: High-frequency hadron-therapy linacs have been studied for the last 20 years and are now being built for dedicated proton-therapy centres. The main reason for using high-frequency linacs, in spite of the small apertures and low-duty cycle, is the fact that, for such applications, beam currents of the order of a few nA and energies of about 200 MeV are sufficient. One of the main advantages of linacs, pulsing at 200-400Hz, is that the output energy can be continuously varied, pulse-by-pulse, and a moving tumour target can be covered about ten times in 2-3 minutes by deposing the dose in many thousands of 'spots'. Starting from the first proposal and the on-going projects related to linacs for medical applications, a discussion of the trend of this field is presented focussing, in particular, on the main challenges for the future, such as the reduction of the footprint of compact 'single-room' proton machines and the power efficiency of dual

Extrapolating these results to physical quark mass, then to zero lattice spacing and infinite volume we obtain values for eight mass ratios. We also determine the zero lattice spacing, infinite volume limit of an alternate set of five quantities found without extrapolation in quark mass. Both sets of predictions differ from the corresponding observed values by amounts consistent with the predicted quantities' statistical uncertainties.

description: It is an open question how well tensor network states in the form of an infinite projected entangled pair states (iPEPS) tensor network can approximate gapless quantum states of matter. Here we address this issue for two different physical scenarios: i) a conformally invariant $(2+1)d$ quantum critical point in the incarnation of the transverse field Ising model on the square lattice and ii) spontaneously broken continuous symmetries with gapless Goldstone modes exemplified by the $S=1/2$ antiferromagnetic Heisenberg and XY models on the square lattice. We find that the energetically best wave functions display {\em finite} correlation lengths and we introduce a powerful finite correlation length scaling framework for the analysis of such finite-$D$ iPEPS states. The framework is important i) to understand the mild limitations of the finite-$D$ iPEPS manifold in representing Lorentz-invariant, gapless many body quantum states and ii) to put forward a practical scheme in which the finite correlation length $ξ(D)$ combined with field theory inspired formulae can be used to extrapolate the data to infinite correlation length, i.e. to the thermodynamic limit. The finite correlation length scaling framework opens the way for further exploration of quantum matter with an (expected) Lorentz-invariant, massless low-energy description, with many applications ranging from condensed matter to high-energy physics.

description: The influence functional is derived for a massive scalar field in the ground state, coupled to a uniformly accelerating DeWitt monopole detector in $D+1$ dimensional Minkowski space. This confirms the local nature of the Unruh effect, and provides an exact solution to the problem of the accelerating detector without invoking a non-standard quantization. A directional detector is presented which is efficiently decohered by the scalar field vacuum, and which illustrates an important difference between the quantum mechanics of inertial and non-inertial frames. From the results of these calculations, some comments are made regarding the possibility of establishing a quantum equivalence principle, so that the Hawking effect might be derived from the Unruh effect.

description: Trade networks, across which countries distribute their products, are crucial components of the globalized world economy. Their structure is strongly heterogeneous across products, given the different features of the countries which buy and sell goods. By using a diversified pool of indicators from network science and product complexity theory, we quantitatively confirm the intuition that, overall, products with higher complexity -- i.e., with larger technological content and number of components -- are traded through a more centralized network -- i.e., with a small number of countries concentrating most of the export flow. Since centralized networks are known to be more vulnerable, we argue that the current composition of production and trading is associated to high fragility at the level of the most complex -- thus strategic -- products.

description: We establish the convergence of an approximation scheme to a model for aurora type phenomena. The latter, mathematically, means a system describing the short wave-long wave (SW-LW) interactions for compressible magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flows, introduced in a previous work, which presents short waves, governed by a nonlinear Schrödinger (NLS) equation based on the Lagrangian coordinates of the fluid, and long waves, governed by the compressible MHD system. The NLS equation and the compressible MHD system are also explicitly coupled by an interaction potential in the NLS equation and an interaction surface force in the momentum equation of the MHD system, both multiplied by a small coefficient. Since the compressible MHD flow is assumed to have large amplitude data, possibly forming vacuum, the coefficient of the interaction terms may be taken as zero, due to the large difference in scale between the two types of waves. In this case, the whole coupling lies in the Lagrangian coordinates of the compressible MHD fluid upon which the NLS equation is formulated. However, due to the possible occurrence of vacuum, these Lagrangian coordinates are not well defined, and herein lies the importance of the approximation scheme. The latter consists of a system that formally approximates the SW-LW interaction system, including non-zero vanishing interaction coefficients, together with an artificial viscosity in the continuity equation, an artificial energy balance term, an artificial pressure in the momentum equation and approximate Lagrangian coordinates, which circumvent the possible occurrence of vacuum. We prove the convergence of the solutions of the approximation scheme to a solution of a system consisting of a NLS equation based on the coordinate system induced by the scheme, and a compressible MHD system.

description: Nonlinearity mitigation using digital signal processing has been shown to increase the achievable data rates of optical fiber transmission links. One especially effective technique is digital back propagation (DBP), an algorithm capable of simultaneously compensating for linear and nonlinear channel distortions. The most significant barrier to implementing this technique, however, is its high computational complexity. In recent years, there have been several proposed alternatives to DBP with reduced computational complexity, although such techniques have not demonstrated performance benefits commensurate with the complexity of implementation. In order to fully characterize the computational requirements of DBP, there is a need to model the algorithm behavior when constrained to the logic used in a digital coherent receiver. Such a model allows for the analysis of any signal recovery algorithm in terms of true hardware complexity which, crucially, includes the bit-depth of the multiplication operation. With a limited bit depth, there is quantization noise, introduced with each arithmetic operation, and it can no longer be assumed that the conventional DBP algorithm will outperform its low complexity alternatives. In this work, DBP and a single nonlinear step DBP implementation, the \textit{Enhanced Split Step Fourier} method (ESSFM), were compared with linear equalization using a generic software model of fixed point hardware. The requirements of bit depth and fast Fourier transform (FFT) size are discussed to examine the optimal operating regimes for these two schemes of digital nonlinearity compensation. For a 1000 km transmission system, it was found that (assuming an optimized FFT size), in terms of SNR, the ESSFM algorithm outperformed the conventional DBP for all hardware resolutions up to 13 bits.

description: The design of vesicle microsystems as artificial cells (bottom-up synthetic biology) has traditionally relied on the incorporation of molecular components to impart functionality. These cell mimics have reduced capabilities compared to their engineered biological counterparts (top-down synthetic biology), as they lack the powerful metabolic and regulatory pathways associated with living systems. There is increasing scope for using whole intact cellular components as functional modules within artificial cells, as a route to increase the capabilities of artificial cells. In this feasibility study, we design and embed genetically engineered microbes (Escherichia coli) in a vesicle-based cell mimic and use them as biosensing modules for real-time monitoring of lactate in the external environment. Using this conceptual framework, the functionality of other microbial devices can be conferred into vesicle microsystems in the future, bridging the gap between bottom-up and top-down synthetic biology.

Peripheral mononuclear cells (PBMC) were analyzed by flow cytometry, representative analysis of one subject is showed. Cells gate was selected on the base of forward scatter (FSC)/side scatter (SSC). Then, singles FSC ad SSC dot plot were realized, posteriorly live cells gate was restricted (Pe-Texas Red negative), and CD3+CD4+ lymphocytes cells were identified. From the CD3+CD4+ gate, the co-expression of CD25+ and FOXP3 was measured to identify four subpopulations; activated CD4+ T cells (Q1: CD4+CD25+FOXP3-), conventional Treg cells (Q2: CD4+CD25+FOXP3+), unconventional Treg cells (Q3: CD4+CD25-FOXP3+), and others CD4+ T cells (Q4: CD4+CD25-FOXP3-) (A). Then, the expressions of tmTNF, tmTNFR1, and tmTNFR2 were measured in each CD4+ subpopulation (black histogram), FMO was used to identify the background signal (gray histogram) (B). Finally, from live cells gate, CD3+CD4+ cells were identified, and then the expressions CD45RA and CCR7 expression were evaluated: Naïve (CD45RA+/CCR7+), central memory (TCM, CD45RA-/CCR7+), effector memory (TEM, CD45RA-/CCR7-), and effector memory RA (TEMRA, CD45RA+/CCR7-) (C). Fig. S2. TEMRA and Naïve CD4+ T cells subpopulations are lower in DR-TB than in DS-TB after anti-TB therapy. Peripheral mononuclear cells (PBMC) from DS-TBand DR-TB patients were obtained at diagnosis time (basal), 2 months (2m) and 6 months (6m) of starting the anti-TB therapy, PBMC were prepared for flow cytometry. Then, frequency of CD4+ cell populations were measured: TEMRA cells (CD4+CD45RA+CCR7-) (A), Naïve cells (CD4+CD45RA+CCR7+) (B), EM cells (CD4+CD45RA-CCR7+)(C), and CM cells (CD4+CD45RA-CCR7-) (D).

description: In this article we exhibit certain projective degenerations of smooth $K3$ surfaces of degree $2g-2$ in $\Bbb P^g$ (whose Picard group is generated by the hyperplane class), to a union of two rational normal scrolls, and also to a union of planes. As a consequence we prove that the general hyperplane section of such $K3$ surfaces has a corank one Gaussian map, if $g=11$ or $g\geq 13$. We also prove that the general such hyperplane section lies on a unique $K3$ surface, up to projectivities. Finally we present a new approach to the classification of prime Fano threefolds of index one, which does not rely on the existence of a line.

"Isocrater" impacts: Conditions and mantle dynamical responses for different impactor types

Year: 2018
Subjects: subject: Earth and Planetary Astrophysics (astro-ph.EP)

description: Impactors of different types and sizes can produce a final crater of the same diameter on a planet under certain conditions. We derive the condition for such "isocrater impacts" from scaling laws, as well as relations that describe how the different impactors affect the interior of the target planet; these relations are also valid for impacts that are too small to affect the mantle. The analysis reveals that in a given isocrater impact, asteroidal impactors produce anomalies in the interior of smaller spatial extent than cometary or similar impactors. The differences in the interior could be useful for characterizing the projectile that formed a given crater on the basis of geophysical observations and potentially offer a possibility to help constrain the demographics of the ancient impactor population. A series of numerical models of basin-forming impacts on Mercury, Venus, the Moon, and Mars illustrates the dynamical effects of the different impactor types on different planets. It shows that the signature of large impacts may be preserved to the present in Mars, the Moon, and Mercury, where convection is less vigorous and much of the anomaly merges with the growing lid. On the other hand, their signature will long have been destroyed in Venus, whose vigorous convection and recurring lithospheric instabilities obliterate larger coherent anomalies.
