A characterization of the essential spectrum and applications

Aref Jeribi (2002)

Bollettino dell'Unione Matematica Italiana

In this article the essential spectrum of closed, densely defined linear operators is characterized on a large class of spaces, which possess the Dunford-Pettis property or which isomorphic to one of the spaces L p Ω p > 1 . A practical...

A class of singular fourth-order boundary value problems with nonhomogeneous nonlinearity

Qingliu Yao (2013)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

We study the existence of positive solutions to a class of singular nonlinear fourth-order boundary value problems in which the nonlinearity may lack homogeneity. By introducing suitable control functions and applying cone expansion and cone compression, we prove three existence theorems. Our main results improve the existence result in [Z. L. Wei, Appl. Math. Comput. 153 (2004), 865-884] where the nonlinearity has a certain homogeneity.

A discrete contact model for crowd motion

Bertrand Maury, Juliette Venel (2011)

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

The aim of this paper is to develop a crowd motion model designed to handle highly packed situations. The model we propose rests on two principles: we first define a spontaneous velocity which corresponds to the velocity each individual would like to have in the absence of other people. The actual velocity is then computed as the projection of the spontaneous velocity onto the set of admissible velocities (i.e. velocities which do not violate the non-overlapping constraint). We describe here the...

A family of Lyapunov-based control schemes for maximum power point tracking in buck converters

Jorge Álvarez, Jorge Ruiz, Miguel Bernal (2023)

Kybernetika

This paper presents a novel family of Lyapunov-based controllers for the maximum power point tracking problem in the buck converter case. The solar power generation system here considered is composed by a stand-alone photovoltaic panel connected to a DC/DC buck converter. Lyapunov function candidates depending on the output are considered to develop conditions which, in some cases, can be expressed as linear matrix inequalities; these conditions guarantee that the output goes asymptotically to zero,...

A fast numerical test of multivariate polynomial positiveness with applications

Petr Augusta, Petra Augustová (2018)

Kybernetika

The paper presents a simple method to check a positiveness of symmetric multivariate polynomials on the unit multi-circle. The method is based on the sampling polynomials using the fast Fourier transform. The algorithm is described and its possible applications are proposed. One of the aims of the paper is to show that presented algorithm is significantly faster than commonly used method based on the semi-definite programming expression.

A mathematical introduction to the Wigner formulation of quantum mechanics

Luigi Barletti (2003)

Bollettino dell'Unione Matematica Italiana

The paper is devoted to review, from a mathematical point of view, some fundamental aspects of the Wigner formulation of quantum mechanics. Starting from the axioms of quantum mechanics and of quantum statistics, we justify the introduction of the Wigner transform and eventually deduce the Wigner equation.
