A note on tension spline

Segeth, Karel (2015)

Application of Mathematics 2015

Spline theory is mainly grounded on two approaches: the algebraic one (where splines are understood as piecewise smooth functions) and the variational one (where splines are obtained via minimization of quadratic functionals with constraints). We show that the general variational approach called smooth interpolation introduced by Talmi and Gilat covers not only the cubic spline but also the well known tension spline (called also spline in tension or spline with tension). We present the results of...

A parallel method for population balance equations based on the method of characteristics

Li, Yu, Lin, Qun, Xie, Hehu (2013)

Applications of Mathematics 2013

In this paper, we present a parallel scheme to solve the population balance equations based on the method of characteristics and the finite element discretization. The application of the method of characteristics transform the higher dimensional population balance equation into a series of lower dimensional convection-diffusion-reaction equations which can be solved in a parallel way. Some numerical results are presented to show the accuracy and efficiency.

A proof of the Baues-Lemaire conjecture in rational homotopy theory

Majewski, Martin (1993)

Proceedings of the Winter School "Geometry and Physics"

This paper contains an announcement of a result, which settles the connection between various algebraic models for rational homotopy theory: the models of Quillen, Sullivan and Adams-Hilton-Anick. It is shown how this result, combined with a recent result of Anick, implies a conjecture of H. J. Baues and J. M. Lemaire [Math. Ann. 225, 219-245 (1977; Zbl 0322.55019)].We describe in some detail the construction of these models (Section 1). We present a variant of the Adams-Hilton model, which is defined...

À propos du sens des textes mathématiques, un exemple : la théorie des «bifurcations dynamiques»

Claude Lobry (1992)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

L’interprétation dans la langue naturelle d’un résultat mathématique peut être délicate. La théorie des bifurcations fournit un exemple récent ou des problème d’interprétation ont motive des développements mathématiques nouveaux de la théorie. L’article plaide pour une plus grande prise en considération de ces questions dans les revues mathématiques.

A representation of the coalgebra of derivations for smooth spaces

Fischer, Gerald (1999)

Proceedings of the 18th Winter School "Geometry and Physics"

Let K be a field. The generalized Leibniz rule for higher derivations suggests the definition of a coalgebra 𝒟 K k for any positive integer k . This is spanned over K by d 0 , ... , d k , and has comultiplication Δ and counit ε defined by Δ ( d i ) = j = 0 i d j d i - j and ε ( d i ) = δ 0 , i (Kronecker’s delta) for any i . This note presents a representation of the coalgebra 𝒟 K k by using smooth spaces and a procedure of microlocalization. The author gives an interpretation of this result following the principles of the quantum theory of geometric spaces.
