Stability: a search for structure

Wouter Jongeneel

In this thesis we study stability from several viewpoints. After covering the practical importance, the rich history and the ever-growing list of manifestations of stability, we study the following. (i) (Statistical identification of stable dynamical syste ...

Iterative refinement of Schur decompositions

Daniel Kressner, Zvonimir Bujanovic

The Schur decomposition of a square matrix A is an important intermediate step of state-of-the-art numerical algorithms for addressing eigenvalue problems, matrix functions, and matrix equations. This work is concerned with the following task: Compute a (m ...

Form-finding of tensegrity structures via rank minimization of force density matrix

Yafeng Wang

This study proposes a general computational framework for the form-finding of tensegrity structures. The procedure is divided into two stages in which the member force densities and nodal coordinates are obtained respectively. In the first stage, the deter ...

ELSEVIER SCI LTD2021

This paper presents a unifying framework for the form-finding and topology-finding of tensegrity structures. The novel computational framework is based on rank-constrained linear matrix inequalities. For form-finding, given the topology (i.e., member conne ...

PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD2021

The paper introduces a novel, hierarchical preconditioner based on nested dissection and hierarchical matrix compression. The preconditioner is intended for continuous and discontinuous Galerkin formulations of elliptic problems. We exploit the property th ...

Bootstrapping massive quantum field theories

Denis Karateev

We propose a new non-perturbative method for studying UV complete unitary quantum field theories (QFTs) with a mass gap in general number of spacetime dimensions. The method relies on unitarity formulated as positive semi-definiteness of the matrix of inne ...

In this paper, we demonstrate that the information encoded in one single (sufficiently large) N-body simulation can be used to reproduce arbitrary numbers of halo catalogues, using approximated realizations of dark matter density fields with different init ...

OXFORD UNIV PRESS2020

Second-order information, in the form of Hessian- or Inverse-Hessian-vector products, is a fundamental tool for solving optimization problems. Recently, there has been a tremendous amount of work on utilizing this information for the current compute and me ...

Accelerated Stochastic Matrix Inversion: General Theory and Speeding up BFGS Rules for Faster Second-Order Optimization

Sebastian Urban Stich

We present the first accelerated randomized algorithm for solving linear systems in Euclidean spaces. One essential problem of this type is the matrix inversion problem. In particular, our algorithm can be specialized to invert positive definite matrices i ...
