WILD SOLUTIONS TO SCALAR EULER-LAGRANGE EQUATIONS

Carl Johan Peter Johansson

. We study very weak solutions to scalar Euler-Lagrange equations associated with quadratic convex functionals. We investigate whether W1,1 solutions are necessarily W 1,2 Nash and Schauder applicable. We answer this question positively for a suitable clas ...

Stability of Image-Reconstruction Algorithms

Michaël Unser, Sebastian Jonas Neumayer, Pol del Aguila Pla

Robustness and stability of image-reconstruction algorithms have recently come under scrutiny. Their importance to medical imaging cannot be overstated. We review the known results for the topical variational regularization strategies ( ℓ2 and ℓ1 regulariz ...

Near-Minimax Optimal Estimation With Shallow ReLU Neural Networks

Rahul Parhi

We study the problem of estimating an unknown function from noisy data using shallow ReLU neural networks. The estimators we study minimize the sum of squared data-fitting errors plus a regularization term proportional to the squared Euclidean norm of the ...

The inductive bias of deep learning: Connecting weights and functions

Guillermo Ortiz Jimenez

Years of a fierce competition have naturally selected the fittest deep learning algorithms. Yet, although these models work well in practice, we still lack a proper characterization of why they do so. This poses serious questions about the robustness, trus ...

Power variations in fractional Sobolev spaces for a class of parabolic stochastic PDEs

Robert Dalang, Carsten Hao Ye Chong

We consider a class of parabolic stochastic PDEs on bounded domains D c Rd that includes the stochastic heat equation but with a fractional power gamma of the Laplacian. Viewing the solution as a process with values in a scale of fractional Sobolev spaces ...

Energy Bounds For A Fourth-Order Equation In Low Dimensions Related To Wave Maps

Tobias Johannes Schmid

For compact, isometrically embedded Riemannian manifolds N -> R-L, we introduce a fourth-order version of the wave maps equation. By energy estimates, we prove an a priori estimate for smooth local solutions in the energy subcritical dimension n = 1, 2. Th ...

Tree-cotree decomposition of isogeometric mortared spaces in H(curl) on multi-patch domains

Rafael Vazquez Hernandez, Bernard Kapidani

When applying isogeometric analysis to engineering problems, one often deals with multi-patch spline spaces that have incompatible discretisations, e.g. in the case of moving objects. In such cases mortaring has been shown to be advantageous. This contribu ...

Understanding Deep Neural Function Approximation in Reinforcement Learning via ϵ-Greedy Exploration

Volkan Cevher, Fanghui Liu, Luca Viano

This paper provides a theoretical study of deep neural function approximation in reinforcement learning (RL) with the ϵ-greedy exploration under the online setting. This problem setting is motivated by the successful deep Q-networks (DQN) framework that fa ...

Collapse-invariant properties of spaces equipped with signals or directions

Stefania Ebli

Collapsing cell complexes was first introduced in the 1930's as a way to deform a space into a topological-equivalent subspace with a sequence of elementary moves. Recently, discrete Morse theory techniques provided an efficient way to construct deformatio ...

Localization errors of the stochastic heat equation

David Jean-Michel Candil

In this thesis, we study the stochastic heat equation (SHE) on bounded domains and on the whole Euclidean space

\R^d.

We confirm the intuition that as the bounded domain increases to the whole space, both solutions become arbitrarily close to one another ...

On the Grothendieck-Serre conjecture for classical groups

Eva Bayer Fluckiger

We prove some new cases of the Grothendieck-Serre conjecture for classical groups. This is based on a new construction of the Gersten-Witt complex for Witt groups of Azumaya algebras with involution on regular semilocal rings, with explicit second residue ...

Functional estimation of anisotropic covariance and autocovariance operators on the sphere

Victor Panaretos, Julien René Fageot, Matthieu Martin Jean-André Simeoni, Alessia Caponera

We propose nonparametric estimators for the second-order central moments of possibly anisotropic spherical random fields, within a functional data analysis context. We consider a measurement framework where each random field among an identically distribute ...

Blow-up, partial regularity and turbulence in incompressible fluid dynamics

Silja Noëmi Aline Haffter

Weak solutions arise naturally in the study of the Navier-Stokes and Euler equations both from an abstract regularity/blow-up perspective and from physical theories of turbulence. This thesis studies the structure and size of singular set of such weak solu ...

Convex optimization in sums of Banach spaces

Michaël Unser, Shayan Aziznejad

We characterize the solution of a broad class of convex optimization problems that address the reconstruction of a function from a finite number of linear measurements. The underlying hypothesis is that the solution is decomposable as a finite sum of compo ...

Non-smooth solutions in incompressible fluid dynamics

Luigi De Rosa

This work is devoted to the study of the main models which describe the motion of incompressible fluids, namely the Navier-Stokes, together with their hypodissipative version, and the Euler equations. We will mainly focus on the analysis of non-smooth weak ...

A first-order primal-dual method with adaptivity to local smoothness

Volkan Cevher, Maria-Luiza Vladarean

We consider the problem of finding a saddle point for the convex-concave objective

\min_x \max_y f(x) + \langle Ax, y\rangle - g^*(y)

, where

f

is a convex function with locally Lipschitz gradient and

g

is convex and possibly non-smooth. We propose an ...

Regularity and sparse approximation of the recursive first moment equations for the lognormal Darcy problem

Fabio Nobile, Francesca Bonizzoni

We study the Darcy boundary value problem with lognormal permeability field. We adopt a perturbation approach, expanding the solution in Taylor series around the nominal value of the coefficient, and approximating the expected value of the stochastic solut ...

Characterization of image spaces of Riemann-Liouville fractional integral operators on Sobolev spaces W-m,W-p (omega)

Jan Sickmann Hesthaven

Fractional operators are widely used in mathematical models describing abnormal and nonlocal phenomena. Although there are extensive numerical methods for solving the corresponding model problems, theoretical analysis such as the regularity result, or the ...

On long time behavior of solutions to nonlinear dispersive equations

Stefano Francesco Burzio

In part I, we address the issue of existence of solutions for Cauchy problems involving nonlinear hyperbolic equations for initial data in Sobolev spaces with scaling subcritical regularity. In particular, we analyse nonlinear estimates for null-forms in t ...

Continuous-Domain Signal Reconstruction Using L-p-Norm Regularization

Michaël Unser, Pakshal Narendra Bohra

We focus on the generalized-interpolation problem. There, one reconstructs continuous-domain signals that honor discrete data constraints. This problem is infinite-dimensional and ill-posed. We make it well-posed by imposing that the solution balances data ...
