The Child–Langmuir limit for semiconductors : a numerical validation

María-José CáceresJosé-Antonio CarrilloPierre Degond — 2002

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

The Boltzmann–Poisson system modeling the electron flow in semiconductors is used to discuss the validity of the Child–Langmuir asymptotics. The scattering kernel is approximated by a simple relaxation time operator. The Child–Langmuir limit gives an approximation of the current-voltage characteristic curves by means of a scaling procedure in which the ballistic velocity is much larger that the thermal one. We discuss the validity of the Child–Langmuir regime by performing detailed numerical comparisons...

Minimal trees and monophonic convexity

Jose CáceresOrtrud R. OellermannM. L. Puertas — 2012

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Let V be a finite set and 𝓜 a collection of subsets of V. Then 𝓜 is an alignment of V if and only if 𝓜 is closed under taking intersections and contains both V and the empty set. If 𝓜 is an alignment of V, then the elements of 𝓜 are called convex sets and the pair (V,𝓜 ) is called an alignment or a convexity. If S ⊆ V, then the convex hull of S is the smallest convex set that contains S. Suppose X ∈ ℳ. Then x ∈ X is an extreme point for X if X∖{x} ∈ ℳ. A convex geometry on a finite set is...
