Multilevel weighted least squares polynomial approximation

Fabio Nobile

Weighted least squares polynomial approximation uses random samples to determine projections of functions onto spaces of polynomials. It has been shown that, using an optimal distribution of sample locations, the number of samples required to achieve quasi ...

Experimental evidence of Bloch surface waves on photonic crystals with thin-film LiNbO3 as a top layer

Hans Peter Herzig, Myun Sik Kim, Maria-Pilar Bernal

Strong nonlinear, electro-optical, and thermo-optical properties of lithium niobate (LN) have gained much attention. However, the implementation of LiNbO3 in real devices is not a trivial task due to difficulties in manufacturing and handling thin-film LN. ...

Revisiting the quest for a universal log-law and the role of pressure gradient in "canonical" wall-bounded turbulent flows

Peter Monkewitz

The trinity of so-called "canonical" wall-bounded turbulent flows, comprising the zero pressure gradient turbulent boundary layer, abbreviated ZPG TBL, turbulent pipe flow, and channel/duct flows has continued to receive intense attention as new and more r ...

Logarithmic estimates for continuity equations

Maria Colombo

The aim of this short note is twofold. First, we give a sketch of the proof of a recent result proved by the authors in the paper [7] concerning existence and uniqueness of renormalized solutions of continuity equations with unbounded damping coefficient. ...

Separation with restricted families of sets

János Pach, Gábor Tardos, Márton Naszódi, Zsolt Langi

Given a finite n-element set X, a family of subsets F subset of 2(X) is said to separate X if any two elements of X are separated by at least one member of F. It is shown that if vertical bar F vertical bar > 2(n-1), then one can select vertical bar log n ...

On the Difficulty of Selecting Ising Models with Approximate Recovery

Volkan Cevher, Jonathan Mark Scarlett

In this paper, we consider the problem of estimating the underlying graph associated with an Ising model given a number of independent and identically distributed samples. We adopt an approximate recovery criterion that allows for a number of missed edges ...

Performance limits of single-agent and multi-agent sub-gradient stochastic learning

Ali H. Sayed, Bicheng Ying

This work examines the performance of stochastic sub-gradient learning strategies, for both cases of stand-alone and networked agents, under weaker conditions than usually considered in the literature. It is shown that these conditions are automatically sa ...

Improved Masking for Tweakable Blockciphers with Applications to Authenticated Encryption

Robert Granger, Philipp Svetolik Jovanovic

A popular approach to tweakable blockcipher design is via masking, where a certain primitive (a blockcipher or a permutation) is preceded and followed by an easy-to-compute tweak-dependent mask. In this work, we revisit the principle of masking. We do so a ...

Spectral methods for tempered fractional differential equations

Jan Sickmann Hesthaven, Lijing Zhao

In this paper, we first introduce fractional integral spaces, which possess some features: (i) when 0 < α < 1, functions in these spaces are not required to be zero on the boundary; (ii)the tempered fractional operators are equivalent to the Riemann-Liouvi ...
