Anomalous dissipation and other non-smooth phenomena in fluids

Massimo Sorella

The thesis is dedicated to the study of two main partial differential equations (PDEs) in fluid dynamics: the Navier-Stokes equations, which describe the motion of incompressible fluids, and the transport equation with divergence-free velocity fields, whic ...

ALMOST EVERYWHERE NONUNIQUENESS OF INTEGRAL CURVES FOR DIVERGENCE-FREE SOBOLEV VECTOR FIELDS

Massimo Sorella

We construct divergence-free Sobolev vector fields in C([0,1];W-1,W-r(T-d;Rd)) with r < d and d\geq 2 which simultaneously admit any finite number of distinct positive solutions to the continuity equation. These vector fields are then shown to have at leas ...

On the commutativity of flows of rough vector fields

Maria Colombo, Riccardo Tione

In the class of Sobolev vector fields in R-n of bounded divergence, for which the theory of DiPerna and Lions provides a well defined notion of flow, we characterize the vector fields whose flow commutes in terms of the Lie bracket and of a regularity cond ...

Homogenization of Multiscale Eddy Current Problem by Localized Orthogonal Decomposition Method

Xiaotao Ren

A homogenization approach for the solution of multiscale eddy current problem is proposed. The method is based on the subspace decomposition and it involves a coarse space and a nested fine space. The homogenized problem is posed in the coarse space with t ...

Helical equilibrium magnetohydrodynamic flow effects on the stability properties of low-n ideal external-infernal modes in weak shear tokamak configurations

Jonathan Graves, Wilfred Anthony Cooper, Patrycja Nowak-Sliwinska, Daniele Brunetti, Alberto Mariani

The impact of equilibrium helical flows on the stability properties of low shear tokamak plasmas is assessed. The corrections due to such helical flow to the equilibrium profiles (mass density, pressure, Shafranov shift, magnetic fluxes) are computed by mi ...

Variational Decomposition of Vector Fields in the Presence of Noise

Michaël Unser, Emrah Bostan, Pouya Dehghani Tafti

We present a variational framework, and an algorithm based on the alternating method of multipliers (ADMM), for the problem of decomposing a vector field into its curl- and divergence-free components (Helmholtz decomposition) in the presence of noise. We p ...

Approximate Sparsity Pattern Recovery: Information-Theoretic Lower Bounds

Michael Christoph Gastpar

Recovery of the sparsity pattern (or support) of an unknown sparse vector from a small number of noisy linear mea- surements is an important problem in compressed sensing. In this paper, the high-dimensional setting is considered. It is shown that if the m ...

A Dual Algorithm for $ L _{ 1 } $ -Regularized Reconstruction of Vector Fields

Michaël Unser, Emrah Bostan, Pouya Dehghani Tafti

Recent advances in vector-field imaging have brought to the forefront the need for efficient denoising and reconstruction algorithms that take the physical properties of vector fields into account and can be applied to large volumes of data. With these req ...

The Sampling Rate-Distortion Tradeoff for Sparsity Pattern Recovery in Compressed Sensing

Michael Christoph Gastpar

Recovery of the sparsity pattern (or support) of an unknown sparse vector from a limited number of noisy linear measurements is an important problem in compressed sensing. In the high-dimensional setting, it is known that recovery with a vanishing fraction ...

Continuous interpolation between the fully frustrated Ising and quantum dimer models

We propose a quantum model interpolating between the fully frustrated spin-1/2 Ising model in a transverse field and a dimer model. This model contains a resonating-valence-bond phase, including a line with an exactly solvable ground state of Rokhsar-Kivel ...

Some linear and nonlinear problems involving differential forms
