Weak notions of jacobian determinant and relaxation

Guido De Philippis (2012)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Similarity:

In this paper we study two weak notions of Jacobian determinant for Sobolev maps, namely the and the , which in general could be different. We show some cases of equality and use them to give an explicit expression for the relaxation of some polyconvex functionals.

Lower semicontinuity and relaxation results in BV for integral functionals with BV integrands

Micol Amar, Virginia De Cicco, Nicola Fusco (2007)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Similarity:

New -lower semicontinuity and relaxation results for integral functionals defined in BV() are proved, under a very weak dependence of the integrand with respect to the spatial variable . More precisely, only the lower semicontinuity in the sense of the -capacity is assumed in order to obtain the lower semicontinuity of the functional. This condition is satisfied, for instance, by the lower approximate limit of the integrand, if it is BV with respect to . Under this further...

Quasiconvexity at the boundary and concentration effects generated by gradients

Martin Kružík (2013)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Similarity:

We characterize generalized Young measures, the so-called DiPerna–Majda measures which are generated by sequences of gradients. In particular, we precisely describe these measures at the boundary of the domain in the case of the compactification of ℝ by the sphere. We show that this characterization is closely related to the notion of quasiconvexity at the boundary introduced by Ball and Marsden [J.M. Ball and J. Marsden, 86 (1984) 251–277]. As a consequence we get new results on weak...

Variational approximation of a functional of Mumford–Shah type in codimension higher than one

Francesco Ghiraldin (2014)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Similarity:

In this paper we consider a new kind of Mumford–Shah functional () for maps : ℝ → ℝ with  ≥ . The most important novelty is that the energy features a singular set of codimension greater than one, defined through the theory of distributional jacobians. After recalling the basic definitions and some well established results, we prove an approximation property for the energy ()  −convergence, in the same spirit of the work by Ambrosio and Tortorelli [L....

Dimension reduction for functionals on solenoidal vector fields

Stefan Krömer (2012)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Similarity:

We study integral functionals constrained to divergence-free vector fields in on a thin domain, under standard -growth and coercivity assumptions, 1    ∞. We prove that as the thickness of the domain goes to zero, the Gamma-limit with respect to weak convergence in is always given by the associated functional with convexified energy density wherever it is finite. Remarkably, this happens despite the fact that relaxation of nonconvex functionals subject...

Pointwise constrained radially increasing minimizers in the quasi-scalar calculus of variations

Luís Balsa Bicho, António Ornelas (2014)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Similarity:

We prove of vector minimizers () =  (||) to multiple integrals ∫ ((), |()|)  on a  ⊂ ℝ, among the Sobolev functions (·) in + (, ℝ), using a  : ℝ×ℝ → [0,∞] with (·) and . Besides such basic hypotheses, (·,·) is assumed to satisfy also...

Corrigendum: Complexity of infinite words associated with beta-expansions

Christiane Frougny, Zuzana Masáková, Edita Pelantová (2010)

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications

Similarity:

We add a sufficient condition for validity of Propo- sition 4.10 in the paper Frougny (2004). This condition is not a necessary one, it is nevertheless convenient, since anyway most of the statements in the paper Frougny (2004) use it.


On power series solutions for the Euler equation, and the Behr–Nečas–Wu initial datum

Carlo Morosi, Mario Pernici, Livio Pizzocchero (2013)

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

Similarity:

We consider the Euler equation for an incompressible fluid on a three dimensional torus, and the construction of its solution as a power series in time. We point out some general facts on this subject, from convergence issues for the power series to the role of symmetries of the initial datum. We then turn the attention to a paper by Behr, Nečas and Wu, 35 (2001) 229–238; here, the authors chose a very simple Fourier polynomial as an initial datum for the Euler equation and analyzed...

Constraints on distributions imposed by properties of linear forms

Denis Belomestny (2010)

ESAIM: Probability and Statistics

Similarity:

Let () be independent identically distributed bivariate vectors and , are two linear forms with positive coefficients. We study two problems: under what conditions does the equidistribution of and imply the same property for and , and under what conditions does the independence of and entail independence of and ? Some analytical sufficient conditions...

Hydrodynamic limit of a d-dimensional exclusion process with conductances

Fábio Júlio Valentim (2012)

Annales de l'I.H.P. Probabilités et statistiques

Similarity:

Fix a polynomial of the form () = + ∑2≤≤    =1 with (1) gt; 0. We prove that the evolution, on the diffusive scale, of the empirical density of exclusion processes on 𝕋 d , with conductances given by special class of functions, is described by the unique weak solution of the non-linear parabolic partial differential equation = ∑    ...

Regularity of languages defined by formal series with isolated cut point

Alberto Bertoni, Maria Paola Bianchi, Flavi D’Alessandro (2012)

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications - Informatique Théorique et Applications

Similarity:

Let  = { ∈  | ()  } be the language recognized by a formal series :  → ℝ with isolated cut point . We provide new conditions that guarantee the regularity of the language in the case that is rational or is a Hadamard quotient of rational series. Moreover the decidability property of such conditions is investigated.

One-Rule Length-Preserving Rewrite Systems and Rational Transductions

Michel Latteux, Yves Roos (2014)

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications - Informatique Théorique et Applications

Similarity:

We address the problem to know whether the relation induced by a one-rule length-preserving rewrite system is rational. We partially answer to a conjecture of Éric Lilin who conjectured in 1991 that a one-rule length-preserving rewrite system is a rational transduction if and only if the left-hand side and the right-hand side of the rule of the system are not quasi-conjugate or are equal, that means if and are distinct, there do not exist words , and such that  =  and  = . We prove...

Integers in number systems with positive and negative quadratic Pisot base

Z. Masáková, T. Vávra (2014)

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications - Informatique Théorique et Applications

Similarity:

We consider numeration systems with base and − , for quadratic Pisot numbers and focus on comparing the combinatorial structure of the sets Z and Z of numbers with integer expansion in base , resp. − . Our main result is the comparison of languages of infinite words and coding the ordering of distances between consecutive - and (− )-integers. It turns out that for a class of roots of − − , the languages coincide, while for other...

Flavia Giannetti, Antonia Passarelli di Napoli (2012)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Similarity:

We study the regularity of finite energy solutions to degenerate n-harmonic equations. The function K(x), which measures the degeneracy, is assumed to be subexponentially integrable, i.e. it verifies the condition exp(P(K)) ∈ L loc 1. The...

Universality in the bulk of the spectrum for complex sample covariance matrices

Sandrine Péché (2012)

Annales de l'I.H.P. Probabilités et statistiques

Similarity:

We consider complex sample covariance matrices = (1/)* where is a × random matrix with i.i.d. entries , 1 ≤ ≤ , 1 ≤ ≤ , with distribution . Under some regularity and decay assumptions on , we prove universality of some local eigenvalue statistics in the bulk of the spectrum in the limit where → ∞ and lim→∞ / = for any real number ∈ (0, ∞).

Arturo Carpi, Aldo de Luca (2010)

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications

Similarity:

The characteristic parameters and of a word over a finite alphabet are defined as follows: is the minimal natural number such that has no repeated suffix of length and is the minimal natural number such that has no right special factor of length . In a previous paper, published on this journal, we have studied the distributions of these parameters, as well as the distribution...
