Hitting with Probability One for Stochastic Heat Equations with Additive Noise

We study the hitting probabilities of the solution to a system of d stochastic heat equations with additive noise subject to Dirichlet boundary conditions. We show that for any bounded Borel set with positive (d-6)\documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{ ...

Dynamical system approach to navigation around obstacles

Aude Billard, Aradhana Nayak

In this article, we propose a dynamical system to avoid obstacles which are star shaped and simultaneously converge to a goal. The convergence is almost-global in a domain and the stationary points are identified explicitly. Our approach is based on the id ...

Reliable data-driven decision-making through optimal transport

Bahar Taskesen

Decision-making permeates every aspect of human and societal development, from individuals' daily choices to the complex decisions made by communities and institutions. Central to effective decision-making is the discipline of optimization, which seeks th ...

Reducing uncertainties in response predictions of earthquake-damaged masonry buildings using data from image-based inspection

Ian Smith, Katrin Beyer, Bryan German Pantoja Rosero, Mathias Christian Haindl Carvallo

Image information about the state of a building after an earthquake, which can be collected without endangering the post-earthquake reconnaissance activities, can be used to reduce uncertainties in response predictions for future seismic events. This paper ...

A Note on Lenses in Arrangements of Pairwise Intersecting Circles in the Plane

Rom Pinchasi

Let F be a family of n pairwise intersecting circles in the plane. We show that the number of lenses, that is convex digons, in the arrangement induced by F is at most 2n - 2. This bound is tight. Furthermore, if no two circles in F touch, then the geometr ...

Improving SAM Requires Rethinking its Optimization Formulation

Volkan Cevher, Fabian Ricardo Latorre Gomez, Thomas Michaelsen Pethick, Kimon Antonakopoulos, Wanyun Xie

This paper rethinks Sharpness-Aware Minimization (SAM), which is originally formulated as a zero-sum game where the weights of a network and a bounded perturbation try to minimize/maximize, respectively, the same differentiable loss. We argue that SAM shou ...

The first Grushin eigenvalue on cartesian product domains

Joachim Stubbe, Luigi Provenzano, Paolo Luzzini

In this paper, we consider the first eigenvalue.1(O) of the Grushin operator.G :=.x1 + |x1|2s.x2 with Dirichlet boundary conditions on a bounded domain O of Rd = R d1+ d2. We prove that.1(O) admits a unique minimizer in the class of domains with prescribed ...

Thick points of the planar GFF are totally disconnected for all & gamma;=6 0*

Juhan Aru

We prove that the set of-y-thick points of a planar Gaussian free field (GFF) with Dirichlet boundary conditions is a.s. totally disconnected for all-y =6 0. Our proof relies on the coupling between a GFF and the nested CLE4. In particular, we show that th ...

Present design of the Steering Mirror Assembly (SMA) for ITER ECHUL

René Chavan, Timothy Goodman, Anastasia Xydou

In the ITER Tokamak, four Electron Cyclotron Heating Upper Launchers (ECHUL) are needed to control plasma instabilities at the rational surfaces, most importantly the q = 3/2 and q = 2/1 neoclassical tearing modes (NTMs). Each ECHUL is equipped with a set ...

State of the Art in Dense Monocular Non-Rigid 3D Reconstruction

Pascal Fua

3D reconstruction of deformable (or non-rigid) scenes from a set of monocular 2D image observations is a long-standing and actively researched area of computer vision and graphics. It is an ill-posed inverse problem, since-without additional prior assumpti ...

Semiclassical Estimates for Eigenvalue Means of Laplacians on Spheres

Joachim Stubbe, Luigi Provenzano, Davide Buoso, Paolo Luzzini

We compute three-term semiclassical asymptotic expansions of counting functions and Riesz-means of the eigenvalues of the Laplacian on spheres and hemispheres, for both Dirichlet and Neumann boundary conditions. Specifically for Riesz-means we prove upper ...

Results on Sparse Integer Programming and Geometric Independent Sets

Jana Tabea Cslovjecsek

An integer linear program is a problem of the form max{c^T x : Ax=b, x >= 0, x integer}, where A is in Z^(n x m), b in Z^m, and c in Z^n. Solving an integer linear program is NP-hard in general, but there are several assumptions for which it becomes fixed ...

Equivariant Neural Architectures for Representing and Generating Graphs

Clément Arthur Yvon Vignac

Graph machine learning offers a powerful framework with natural applications in scientific fields such as chemistry, biology and material sciences. By representing data as a graph, we encode the prior knowledge that the data is composed of a set of entiti ...

THE WEYL LAW OF TRANSMISSION EIGENVALUES AND THE COMPLETENESS OF GENERALIZED TRANSMISSION EIGENFUNCTIONS WITHOUT COMPLEMENTING CONDITIONS

Hoài-Minh Nguyên, Jean Louis-Alexandre Fornerod

The transmission eigenvalue problem is a system of two second-order elliptic equations of two unknowns equipped with the Cauchy data on the boundary. In this work, we establish the Weyl law for the eigenvalues and the completeness of the generalized eigenf ...

Singular quadratic eigenvalue problems: linearization and weak condition numbers

Daniel Kressner, Ivana Sain Glibic

The numerical solution of singular eigenvalue problems is complicated by the fact that small perturbations of the coefficients may have an arbitrarily bad effect on eigenvalue accuracy. However, it has been known for a long time that such perturbations are ...

Homogenization results for the generator of multiscale Langevin dynamics in weighted Sobolev spaces

We study the homogenization of the Poisson equation with a reaction term and of the eigenvalue problem associated to the generator of multiscale Langevin dynamics. Our analysis extends the theory of two-scale convergence to the case of weighted Sobolev spa ...
