Gradient theory for plasticity via homogenization of discrete dislocations

Adriana Garroni, Giovanni Leoni, Marcello Ponsiglione (2010)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We deduce a macroscopic strain gradient theory for plasticity from a model of discrete dislocations. We restrict our analysis to the case of a cylindrical symmetry for the crystal under study, so that the mathematical formulation will involve a two-dimensional variational problem. The dislocations are introduced as point topological defects of the strain fields, for which we compute the elastic energy stored outside the so-called core region. We show that the $Γ$ -limit of this energy (suitably...

The Landau-Lifshitz equations and the damping parameter

K. Hamdache, M. Tilioua (2006)

Bollettino dell'Unione Matematica Italiana

Similarity:

The present paper is particularly devoted to the damping effect in ferromagnetic materials. We are interested in determining the sensitivity of the LLG method solution to the phenomenological damping parameter a. We discuss the behaviour of the global weak solutions with finite energy of the Landau-Lifshitz equations when the damping parameter a tends either to 0 (underdamped case) or $+\infty$ (overdamped case).

$L^{p}$ -improving properties of measures of positive energy dimension

Kathryn E. Hare, Maria Roginskaya (2005)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

A measure is called $L^{p}$ -improving if it acts by convolution as a bounded operator from $L^{p}$ to $L^{q}$ for some q > p. Positive measures which are $L^{p}$ -improving are known to have positive Hausdorff dimension. We extend this result to complex $L^{p}$ -improving measures and show that even their energy dimension is positive. Measures of positive energy dimension are seen to be the Lipschitz measures and are characterized in terms of their improving behaviour on a subset of $L^{p}$ -functions.

Integral representation and relaxation for functionals defined on measures

Ennio De Giorgi, Luigi Ambrosio, Giuseppe Buttazzo (1987)

Atti della Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei. Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali. Rendiconti

Similarity:

Given a separable metric locally compact space $\Omega$ , and a positive finite non-atomic measure $\lambda$ on $\Omega$ , we study the integral representation on the space of measures with bounded variation $\Omega$ of the lower semicontinuous envelope of the functional $F(u)=\int_{\Omega}f(x,u)d\lambda\qquad u\in L^{1}(\Omega,\lambda,\mathbb{R}^{n})$ with respect to the weak convergence of measures.

On Ordinary and Standard Lebesgue Measures on $ℝ^{\infty}$

Gogi Pantsulaia (2009)

Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences. Mathematics

Similarity:

New concepts of Lebesgue measure on $ℝ^{\infty}$ are proposed and some of their realizations in the ZFC theory are given. Also, it is shown that Baker’s both measures [1], [2], Mankiewicz and Preiss-Tišer generators [6] and the measure of [4] are not α-standard Lebesgue measures on $ℝ^{\infty}$ for α = (1,1,...).

Quantization Dimension Estimate of Inhomogeneous Self-Similar Measures

Mrinal Kanti Roychowdhury (2013)

Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences. Mathematics

Similarity:

We consider an inhomogeneous measure μ with the inhomogeneous part a self-similar measure ν, and show that for a given r ∈ (0,∞) the lower and the upper quantization dimensions of order r of μ are bounded below by the quantization dimension $D_{r} (ν)$ of ν and bounded above by a unique number $κ_{r} \in (0, \infty)$ , related to the temperature function of the thermodynamic formalism that arises in the multifractal analysis of μ.

Linearized plasticity is the evolutionary $Γ$ -limit of finite plasticity

Alexander Mielke, Ulisse Stefanelli (2013)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We provide a rigorous justification of the classical linearization approach in plasticity. By taking the small-deformations limit, we prove via $Γ$ -convergence for rate-independent processes that energetic solutions of the quasi-static finite-strain elastoplasticity system converge to the unique strong solution of linearized elastoplasticity.

The energy class $_{p}$ is studied for 0 < p < 1. A characterization of certain bounded plurisubharmonic functions in terms of $ℱ_{p}$ and its pluricomplex p-energy is proved.

Similarity:

Given a separable metric locally compact space $\Omega$ , and a positive finite non-atomic measure $\lambda$ on $\Omega$ , we study the integral representation on the space of measures with bounded variation $\Omega$ of the lower semicontinuous envelope of the functional $F(u)=\int_{\Omega}f(x,y)d\lambda\qquad u\in L^{1}(\Omega,\lambda,\mathbb{R}^{n})$ with respect to the weak convergence of measures.

A reduced model for domain walls in soft ferromagnetic films at the cross-over from symmetric to asymmetric wall types

Lucas Döring, Radu Ignat, Felix Otto (2014)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We study the Landau-Lifshitz model for the energy of multi-scale transition layers – called “domain walls” – in soft ferromagnetic films. Domain walls separate domains of constant magnetization vectors $m_{α}^{\pm} \in 𝕊^{2}$ that differ by an angle $2 α$ . Assuming translation invariance tangential to the wall, our main result is the rigorous derivation of a reduced model for the energy of the optimal transition layer, which in a certain parameter regime confirms the experimental, numerical and physical predictions:...

On the isotropic constant of marginals

Grigoris Paouris (2012)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

We show that if μ₁, ..., μₘ are log-concave subgaussian or supergaussian probability measures in $ℝ^{n_{i}}$ , i ≤ m, then for every F in the Grassmannian $G_{N, n}$ , where N = n₁ + ⋯ + nₘ and n< N, the isotropic constant of the marginal of the product of these measures, $π_{F} (μ ₁ \otimes \dots \otimes μ ₘ)$ , is bounded. This extends known results on bounds of the isotropic constant to a larger class of measures.

An Artificial Viscosity Approach to Quasistatic Crack Growth

Rodica Toader, Chiara Zanini (2009)

Bollettino dell'Unione Matematica Italiana

Similarity:

We introduce a new model of irreversible quasistatic crack growth in which the evolution of cracks is the limit of a suitably modified $\epsilon$ -gradient flow of the energy functional, as the "viscosity" parameter $\epsilon$ tends to zero.

Unique Bernoulli $g$ -measures

Anders Johansson, Anders Öberg, Mark Pollicott (2012)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We improve and subsume the conditions of Johansson and Öberg and Berbee for uniqueness of a $g$ -measure, i.e., a stationary distribution for chains with complete connections. In addition, we prove that these unique $g$ -measures have Bernoulli natural extensions. We also conclude that we have convergence in the Wasserstein metric of the iterates of the adjoint transfer operator to the $g$ -measure.

Vortex collisions and energy-dissipation rates in the Ginzburg–Landau heat flow. Part I: Study of the perturbed Ginzburg–Landau equation

Sylvia Serfaty (2007)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We study vortices for solutions of the perturbed Ginzburg–Landau equations $Δ u + (u / ε^{2}) {(1 - | u |}^{2}) = f_{ε}$ where $f_{ε}$ is estimated in $L^{2}$ . We prove upper bounds for the Ginzburg–Landau energy in terms of $∥ f_{ε} ∥_{L^{2}}$ , and obtain lower bounds for $∥ f_{ε} ∥_{L^{2}}$ in terms of the vortices when these form “unbalanced clusters” where $\sum_{i} d_{i}^{2} \neq {(\sum_{i} d_{i})}^{2}$ . These results will serve in Part II of this paper to provide estimates on the energy-dissipation rates for solutions of the Ginzburg–Landau heat flow, which allow one to study various phenomena occurring in this flow,...

Daniele Graziani (2007)

Bollettino dell'Unione Matematica Italiana

Similarity:

The aim of this work is to prove a chain rule and an $L^{1}$ -lower semicontinuity theorems for integral functional defined on $BV(\Omega)$ . Moreover we apply this result in order to obtain new relaxation and $\Gamma$ -convergence result without any coerciveness and any continuity assumption of the integrand $f(x,s,p)$ with respect to the variable $s$ .

A Result About $C^{2}$ -Rectifiability of One-Dimensional Rectifiable Sets. Application to a Class of One-Dimensional Integral Currents

Silvano Delladio (2007)

Bollettino dell'Unione Matematica Italiana

Similarity:

Let $\gamma,\tau\colon[a,b]\rightarrow R^{k+1}$ be a couple of Lipschitz maps such that $\gamma^{\prime}=\pm|\gamma^{\prime}|\tau$ almost everywhere in $[a,b]$ . Then $\gamma([a,b])$ is a $C^{2}$ -rectifiable set, namely it may be covered by countably many curves of class $C^{2}$ embedded in $R^{k+1}$ . As a conseguence, projecting the rectifiable carrier of a one-dimensional generalized Gauss graph provides a $C^{2}$ -rectifiable set.

Odd cutsets and the hard-core model on $ℤ^{d}$

Ron Peled, Wojciech Samotij (2014)

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

Similarity:

We consider the hard-core lattice gas model on $ℤ^{d}$ and investigate its phase structure in high dimensions. We prove that when the intensity parameter exceeds $C d^{- 1 / 3} {(log d)}^{2}$ , the model exhibits multiple hard-core measures, thus improving the previous bound of $C d^{- 1 / 4} {(log d)}^{3 / 4}$ given by Galvin and Kahn. At the heart of our approach lies the study of a certain class of edge cutsets in $ℤ^{d}$ , the so-called odd cutsets, that appear naturally as the boundary between different phases in the hard-core model. We provide a refined...

Level by level equivalence and the number of normal measures over $P_{κ} (λ)$

Arthur W. Apter (2007)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We construct two models for the level by level equivalence between strong compactness and supercompactness in which if κ is λ supercompact and λ ≥ κ is regular, we are able to determine exactly the number of normal measures $P_{κ} (λ)$ carries. In the first of these models, $P_{κ} (λ)$ carries $2^{2^{{[λ]}^{< κ}}}$ many normal measures, the maximal number. In the second of these models, $P_{κ} (λ)$ carries $2^{2^{{[λ]}^{< κ}}}$ many normal measures, except if κ is a measurable cardinal which is not a limit of measurable cardinals. In this case, κ (and...

Ground states of supersymmetric matrix models

Gian Michele Graf (1998-1999)

Séminaire Équations aux dérivées partielles

Similarity:

We consider supersymmetric matrix Hamiltonians. The existence of a zero-energy bound state, in particular for the $d = 9$ model, is of interest in M-theory. While we do not quite prove its existence, we show that the decay at infinity such a state would have is compatible with normalizability (and hence existence) in $d = 9$ . Moreover, it would be unique. Other values of $d$ , where the situation is somewhat different, shall also be addressed. The analysis is based on a Born-Oppenheimer approximation....

Denseness and Borel complexity of some sets of vector measures

Zbigniew Lipecki (2004)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

Let ν be a positive measure on a σ-algebra Σ of subsets of some set and let X be a Banach space. Denote by ca(Σ,X) the Banach space of X-valued measures on Σ, equipped with the uniform norm, and by ca(Σ,ν,X) its closed subspace consisting of those measures which vanish at every ν-null set. We are concerned with the subsets $_{ν} (X)$ and $_{ν} (X)$ of ca(Σ,X) defined by the conditions |φ| = ν and |φ| ≥ ν, respectively, where |φ| stands for the variation of φ ∈ ca(Σ,X). We establish necessary and sufficient...

A-Statistical Convergence of Subsequence of Double Sequences

Harry I. Miller (2007)

Bollettino dell'Unione Matematica Italiana

Similarity:

The concept of statistical convergence of a sequence was first introduced by H. Fast [7] in 1951. Recently, in the literature, the concept of statistical convergence of double sequences has been studied. The main result in this paper is a theorem that gives meaning to the statement: $s={s_{ij}}$ converges statistically $A$ to $L$ if and only if "most" of the "subsequences" of $s$ converge to $L$ in the ordinary sense. The results presented here are analogue of theorems in [12], [13] and [6] and are concerned...

Generalised functions of bounded deformation

Gianni Dal Maso (2013)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We introduce the space $G B D$ of generalized functions of bounded deformation and study the structure properties of these functions: the rectiability and the slicing properties of their jump sets, and the existence of their approximate symmetric gradients. We conclude by proving a compactness results for $G B D$ , which leads to a compactness result for the space $G S B D$ of generalized special functions of bounded deformation. The latter is connected to the existence of solutions to a weak formulation...

A Note on Calculation of Asymptotic Energy for a Functional of Ginzburg-Landau Type with Externally Imposed Lower-Order Oscillatory Term in One Dimension

Andrija Raguž (2007)

Bollettino dell'Unione Matematica Italiana

Similarity:

In this note we consider the Ginzburg-Landau functional $I^{\epsilon}_{a}(v)=\int_{0}^{1}(\epsilon^{2}v^{\prime\prime 2}(s)+W(v^{\prime% }(s))+a(\epsilon^{-\beta}s(v^{2}(s))\,ds$ where $\beta>0$ and a is 1-periodic. We determine how (rescaled) minimal asymptotic energy associated to $I^{\epsilon}_{a}$ depends on parameter $\beta>0$ as $\epsilon\o 0$ . In particular, our analysis shows that minimizers of $I_{a}^{\epsilon}$ are nearly $\epsilon^{1/3}$ -periodic.

Relaxation and gamma-convergence of supremal functionals

Francesca Prinari (2006)

Bollettino dell'Unione Matematica Italiana

Similarity:

We prove that the $\Gamma$ -limit in $L^{\infty}_{\mu}$ of a sequence of supremal functionals of the form $F_{k}(u)=\operatorname{\mu-ess\,sup}_{\Omega}f_{k}(x,u)$ is itself a supremal functional. We show by a counterexample that, in general, the function which represents the $\Gamma$ -lim $F(\cdot,B)$ of a sequence of functionals $F_{k}(u,B)=\operatorname{\mu-ess\,sup}_{B}f_{k}(x,u)$ can depend on the set $B$ and wegive a necessary and sufficient condition to represent $F$ in the supremal form $F(u,B)=\operatorname{\mu-ess\,sup}_{B}f(x,u)$ . As a corollary, if $f$ represents a supremal functional, then the level convex envelope of $f$ represents its weak* lower semicontinuous envelope. ...

On inhomogeneous self-similar measures and their $L^{q}$ spectra

Przemysław Liszka (2013)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Similarity:

Let $S_{i} : ℝ^{d} \to ℝ^{d}$ for i = 1,..., N be contracting similarities, let $(p ₁, . . ., p_{N}, p)$ be a probability vector and let ν be a probability measure on $ℝ^{d}$ with compact support. It is well known that there exists a unique inhomogeneous self-similar probability measure μ on $ℝ^{d}$ such that $μ = \sum_{i = 1}^{N} p_{i} μ \circ S_{i}^{- 1} + p ν$ . We give satisfactory estimates for the lower and upper bounds of the $L^{q}$ spectra of inhomogeneous self-similar measures. The case in which there are a countable number of contracting similarities and probabilities is considered. In particular,...

On the duality between $p$ -modulus and probability measures

Luigi Ambrosio, Simone Di Marino, Giuseppe Savaré (2015)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

Motivated by recent developments on calculus in metric measure spaces $(X, d, m)$ , we prove a general duality principle between Fuglede’s notion [15] of $p$ -modulus for families of finite Borel measures in $(X, d)$ and probability measures with barycenter in $L^{q} (X, m)$ , with $q$ dual exponent of $p \in (1, \infty)$ . We apply this general duality principle to study null sets for families of parametric and non-parametric curves in $X$ . In the final part of the paper we provide a new proof, independent of optimal transportation, of the...

On Lagrangian systems with some coordinates as controls

Franco Rampazzo (1988)

Atti della Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei. Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali. Rendiconti

Similarity:

Let $\Sigma$ be a constrained mechanical system locally referred to state coordinates $(q^{1},...,q^{N},\gamma^{1},...,\gamma^{M})$ . Let $(\tilde{\gamma}^{1}...\tilde{\gamma}^{M})(\cdot)$ be an assigned trajectory for the coordinates $\gamma^{\alpha}$ and let $u(\cdot)$ be a scalar function of the time, to be thought as a control. In [4] one considers the control system $\Sigma_{\hat{\gamma}}$ , which is parametrized by the coordinates $(q^{1},...,q^{N})$ and is obtained from $\Sigma$ by adding the time-dependent, holonomic constraints $\gamma^{\alpha}=\hat{\gamma}^{\alpha}(t):=\tilde{\gamma}^{\alpha}(u(t))$ . More generally, one can consider a vector-valued control $u(\cdot)=(u^{1},...,u^{M})(\cdot)$ which is directly identified with $\hat{\gamma}(\cdot)=(\hat{\gamma}^{1},...,\hat{\gamma}^{M})(\cdot)$ . If one denotes the momenta...

Sets of $β$ -expansions and the Hausdorff measure of slices through fractals

Tom Kempton (2016)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

We study natural measures on sets of $β$ -expansions and on slices through self similar sets. In the setting of $β$ -expansions, these allow us to better understand the measure of maximal entropy for the random $β$ -transformation and to reinterpret a result of Lindenstrauss, Peres and Schlag in terms of equidistribution. Each of these applications is relevant to the study of Bernoulli convolutions. In the fractal setting this allows us to understand how to disintegrate Hausdorff measure by slicing,...
