The class of non-autonomous functionals under study is characterized by the fact that the energy density changes its ellipticity and growth properties according to the point; some regularity results are proved for related minimizers. These results are the ...
Max-stable processes play an important role as models for spatial extreme events. Their complex structure as the pointwise maximum over an infinite number of random functions makes their simulation difficult. Algorithms based on finite approximations are o ...
We study harmonic mappings of the form f(z) = h(z) z, where h is an analytic function. In particular we are interested in the index (a generalized multiplicity) of the zeros of such functions. Outside the critical set of f, where the Jacobian of f is non ...
Model-structure identification is important for the optimization and design of biokinetic processes. Standard Monod and Tessier functions are often used by default to describe bacterial growth with respect to a substrate, leading to significant optimizatio ...
We present new results concerning the approximation of the total variation, integral(Omega)vertical bar del u vertical bar, of a function u by non-local, non-convex functionals of the form Lambda delta(u) = integral(Omega)integral(Omega)delta phi(vertical ...
Ext-int. one affine functions are functions affine in the direction of one-divisible exterior forms with respect to the exterior product in one variable and with respect to the interior product in the other. The purpose of this article is to prove a charac ...
The problem of effect polymorphism is a major obstacle to wide adoption of effect systems in the programming community. The absence of effect systems reduces compiler optimization opportunities and disables effect constraints on APIs in parallel and distri ...
The kernel of the Cooray-Rubinstein formula in the time domain involves a modified Bessel function of order zero. In this letter, approximations of the kernel are proposed, which do not use any special function, and, hence, are able to simplify the numeric ...

We study theoretically the erosion threshold of a granular bed forced by a viscous fluid. We first introduce a model of interacting particles driven on a rough substrate. It predicts a continuous transition at some threshold forcing theta(c), beyond which ...
Two Boolean functions are NPN equivalent if one can be ob- tained from the other by negating inputs, permuting inputs, or negating the output. NPN equivalence is an equivalence relation and the number of equivalence classes is significantly smaller than th ...
