Divergent X-ray tomography reconstruction and optimisation

In diverse fields such as medical imaging, astrophysics, geophysics, or material study, a common challenge exists: reconstructing the internal volume of an object using only physical measurements taken from its exterior or surface. This scientific approach ...

A multiphase CMAQ version 5.0 adjoint

Athanasios Nenes

We present the development of a multiphase adjoint for the Community Multiscale Air Quality (CMAQ) model, a widely used chemical transport model. The adjoint model provides location- and time-specific gradients that can be used in various applications such ...

Stochastic approximation methods for PDE constrained optimal control problems with uncertain parameters

Matthieu Claude Martin

This thesis work focuses on optimal control of partial differential equations (PDEs) with uncertain parameters, treated as a random variables. In particular, we assume that the random parameters are not observable and look for a deterministic control which ...

Discreteness of interior transmission eigenvalues revisited

Hoài-Minh Nguyên, Quoc Hung Nguyen

This paper is devoted to the discreteness of the transmission eigenvalue problems. It is known that this problem is not self-adjoint and a priori estimates are non-standard and do not hold in general. Two approaches are used. The first one is based on the ...

A necessary and sufficient condition for induced model structures

Kathryn Hess Bellwald, Magdalena Kedziorek

A common technique for producing a new model category structure is to lift the fibrations and weak equivalences of an existing model structure along a right adjoint. Formally dual but technically much harder is to lift the cofibrations and weak equivalence ...

Towards new invariants for principal bundles

Martina Rovelli

We investigate the theory of principal bundles from a homotopical point of view. In the first part of the thesis, we prove a classification of principal bundles over a fixed base space, dual to the well-known classification of bundles with a fixed structur ...

On the eigenvalue decay of solutions to operator Lyapunov equations

Daniel Kressner

This paper is concerned with the eigenvalue decay of the solution to operator Lyapunov equations with right-hand sides of finite rank. We show that the kth (generalized) eigenvalue decays exponentially in root k, provided that the involved operator A gener ...

PT-Symmetric Periodic Optical Potentials

In quantum theory, any Hamiltonian describing a physical system is mathematically represented by a self-adjoint linear operator to ensure the reality of the associated observables. In an attempt to extend quantum mechanics into the complex domain, it was r ...

Universal Bounds And Semiclassical Estimates For Eigenvalues Of Abstract Schrodinger Operators

Joachim Stubbe

We prove trace inequalities for a self-adjoint operator on an abstract Hilbert space, which extend those known previously for Laplacians and Schrodinger operators, freeing them from restrictive assumptions on the nature of the spectrum and allowing operato ...
