We study the Darcy boundary value problem with log-normal permeability field. We adopt a perturbation approach, expanding the solution in Taylor series around the nominal value of the coefficient, and approximating the expected value of the stochastic solu ...

Regularity and sparse approximation of the recursive first moment equations for the lognormal Darcy problem

Fabio Nobile, Francesca Bonizzoni

We study the Darcy boundary value problem with lognormal permeability field. We adopt a perturbation approach, expanding the solution in Taylor series around the nominal value of the coefficient, and approximating the expected value of the stochastic solut ...

We establish new recurrence and multiple recurrence results for a rather large family of non-polynomial functions which contains tempered functions and (non-polynomial) functions from a Hardy field with polynomial growth. In particular, we show that, somew ...

A four-dimensional plasma model able to describe the scrape-off layer region of tokamak devices at arbitrary collisionality is derived in the drift-reduced limit. The basis of the model is provided by a drift-kinetic equation that retains the full nonlinea ...

Support and approximation properties of Hermite splines

Michaël Unser, Julien René Pierre Fageot, Virginie Sophie Uhlmann, Shayan Aziznejad

In this paper, we formally investigate two mathematical aspects of Hermite splines that are relevant to practical applications. We first demonstrate that Hermite splines are maximally localized, in the sense that the size of their support is minimal among ...

Conformal 3-Point Functions and the Lorentzian OPE in Momentum Space

Marc Gillioz

In conformal field theory in Minkowski momentum space, the 3-point correlation functions of local operators are completely fixed by symmetry. Using Ward identities together with the existence of a Lorentzian operator product expansion (OPE), we show that t ...

SPRINGER2020

In distributionally robust optimization the probability distribution of the uncertain problem parameters is itself uncertain, and a fictitious adversary, e.g., nature, chooses the worst distribution from within a known ambiguity set. A common shortcoming o ...

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 ...

A gyrokinetic model for the plasma periphery of fusion devices

Paolo Ricci, Rogério Manuel Cabete De Jesus Jorge, Baptiste Jimmy Frei

Understanding the turbulent dynamics of the plasma in the periphery of fusion devices - the region extending from the external part of the closed flux surface region to the scrape-off layer - is of crucial importance on the way to fusion energy. Indeed, th ...

Theory of the Drift-Wave Instability at Arbitrary Collisionality

Paolo Ricci, Rogério Manuel Cabete De Jesus Jorge

Drift-waves (DW) are low-frequency modes that arise in a magnetized plasma when a finite pressure gradient is present. In order to become unstable, DW require some form of dissipation, such as finite resistivity, electron inertia or wave-particle resonance ...
