Applications of the thawed Gaussian approximation to electronic spectroscopy

The exploration of electronically excited states and the study of diverse photochemical and photophysical processes are the main goals of molecular electronic spectroscopy. Exact quantum-mechanical simulation of such experiments is, however, beyond current ...

Eight-vertex criticality in the interacting Kitaev chain

Frédéric Mila, Natalia Chepiga

We show that including pairing and repulsion into the description of one-dimensional spinless fermions, as in the domain wall theory of commensurate melting or the interacting Kitaev chain, leads, for strong enough repulsion, to a line of critical points i ...

Dispatch-aware Optimal Planning of Active Distribution Networks including Energy Storage Systems

Ji Hyun Yi

The thesis develops a planning framework for ADNs to achieve their dispatchability by means of ESS allocation while ensuring a reliable and secure operation of ADNs. Second, the framework is extended to include grid reinforcements and ESSs planning. Finall ...

Unified Green's function approach for spectral and thermodynamic properties from algorithmic inversion of dynamical potentials

Nicola Marzari, Tommaso Chiarotti, Andrea Ferretti

Dynamical potentials appear in many advanced electronic-structure methods, including self-energies from many-body perturbation theory, dynamical mean-field theory, electronic-transport formulations, and many embedding approaches. Here, we propose a novel t ...

Expansion planning of active distribution networks achieving their dispatchability via energy storage systems

Sidi-Rachid Cherkaoui, Mario Paolone, Katarina Knezovic, Ji Hyun Yi

This paper presents a combined framework for power distribution network expansion planning (DNEP) and energy storage systems (ESSs) allocation in active distribution networks (ADNs) hosting large amount of photovoltaic (PV) generations and loads. The propo ...

The Multi-species Mean-Field Spin-Glass on the Nishimori Line

Emanuele Mingione, Diego Alberici

In this paper we study a multi-species disordered model on the Nishimori line. The typical properties of this line, a set of identities and inequalities among correlation functions, allow us to prove the replica symmetry i.e. the concentration of the order ...

High-order geometric integrators for representation-free Ehrenfest dynamics

Jiri Vanicek, Seonghoon Choi

Ehrenfest dynamics is a useful approximation for ab initio mixed quantum-classical molecular dynamics that can treat electronically nonadiabatic effects. Although a severe approximation to the exact solution of the molecular time-dependent Schrödinger equa ...

On the Influence of Bias-Correction on Distributed Stochastic Optimization

Ali H. Sayed, Bicheng Ying, Kun Yuan, Sulaiman A S A E Alghunaim

Various bias-correction methods such as EXTRA, gradient tracking methods, and exact diffusion have been proposed recently to solve distributed deterministic optimization problems. These methods employ constant step-sizes and converge linearly to the exact ...

An adaptive algorithm for the transport equation with time dependent velocity

Marco Picasso, Samuel Dubuis

An a posteriori error estimate is derived for the approximation of the transport equation with a time dependent transport velocity. Continuous, piecewise linear, anisotropic finite elements are used for space discretization, the Crank-Nicolson scheme schem ...

Optimal Allocation of ESSs in Active Distribution Networks to achieve their Dispatchability

Sidi-Rachid Cherkaoui, Mario Paolone, Ji Hyun Yi

This paper presents a method for the optimal siting and sizing of energy storage systems (ESSs) in active distribution networks (ADNs) to achieve their dispatchability. The problem formulation accounts for the uncertainty inherent to the stochastic nature ...

On the Performance of Exact Diffusion over Adaptive Networks

Ali H. Sayed, Bicheng Ying, Kun Yuan, Sulaiman A S A E Alghunaim

Various bias-correction methods such as EXTRA, DIGing, and exact diffusion have been proposed recently to solve distributed deterministic optimization problems. These methods employ constant step-sizes and converge linearly to the exact solution under prop ...

Variance-Reduced Stochastic Learning by Networked Agents Under Random Reshuffling

Ali H. Sayed, Bicheng Ying, Kun Yuan

This paper develops a distributed variance-reduced strategy for a collection of interacting agents that are connected by a graph topology. The resulting diffusion-AVRG (where AVRG stands for "amortized variance-reduced gradient") algorithm is shown to have ...

On the Soil-Structure Interaction of Surface Strip Footings at Ultimate Limit State

Lyesse Laloui, Cristiano Garbellini

Theoretical methods for estimating the bearing capacity of surface strip footings usually do not consider soil-structure interaction. A few publications deal with the subject, but all of these either do not apply rigorous methods or do not consider the gen ...

An Equation-Free Approach For Second Order Multiscale Hyperbolic Problems In Non-Divergence Form

Doghonay Arjmand

The present study concerns the numerical homogenization of second order hyperbolic equations in non-divergence form, where the model problem includes a rapidly oscillating coefficient function. These small scales influence the large scale behavior, hence t ...

Generalised zonal modes in stationary axisymmetric plasmas

Jonathan Graves

The MHD model enables derivation and analysis of the rich structure of geodesic acoustic modes (GAMs) and zonal modes in axisymmetric magnetic confined plasmas. The modes are identifiable from a single dispersion relation as two branches of slow magnetoson ...

Development of a consistent approach for design and assessment of structural concrete members using stress fields and strut-and-tie models

Filip Niketic

Designing new concrete members and assessing the strength of existing elements subjected to in-plane stress state conditions is often conducted by means of Stress Fields (SF) and Strut-and-Tie Models (STM). These methods are usually accounting for identica ...

The gene family-free median of three

Metin Balaban

Background: The gene family-free framework for comparative genomics aims at providing methods for gene order analysis that do not require prior gene family assignment, but work directly on a sequence similarity graph. We study two problems related to the b ...
