A Flux-Coordinate Independent (FCI) approach for anisotropic systems, not based on magnetic flux coordinates, has been introduced in Hariri and Ottaviani [Comput. Phys. Commun. 184, 2419 (2013)]. In this paper, we show that the approach can tackle magnetic ...
In this paper, we study the problem of approximately computing the product of two real matrices. In particular, we analyze a dimensionality-reduction-based approximation algorithm due to Sarlos [1], introducing the notion of nuclear rank as the ratio of th ...
Over the last two decades, we have witnessed an increasing application of mathematical models and numerical simulations for the study of the cardiovascular system. Indeed, both tools provide an important contribution to the analysis of the functioning of t ...
Given a set P of n points in ℝd, let d1 > d2 >...denote all distinct inter-point distances generated by point pairs in P. It was shown by Schur, Martini, Perles, and Kupitz that there is at most oned-dimensional regular simplex of edge length d1 whos ...
We study the semilinear wave equation ∂t2ψ−Δψ=∣ψ∣p−1ψ for p>3 with radial data in three spatial dimensions. There exists an explicit solution which blows up at t=T>0 given by $\displaystyl ...
Erd\H{o}s conjectured in 1946 that every n-point set P in convex position in the plane contains a point that determines at least floor(n/2) distinct distances to the other points of P. The best known lower bound due to Dumitrescu (2006) is 13n/36 - O(1). I ...
In a seminal paper published in 1946, Erd ̋os initiated the investigation of the distribution of distances generated by point sets in metric spaces. In spite of some spectacular par- tial successes and persistent attacks by generations of mathe- maticians, ...
By a polygonization of a finite point set S in the plane we understand a simple polygon having S as the set of its vertices. Let B and R be sets of blue and red points, respectively, in the plane such that is in general position, and the convex hull of B c ...
A burner configuration that allows the creation of nearly unstretched one-dimensional diffusion flames has recently been introduced. This paper presents the first detailed characterization of flames produced in such a burner to assess how well they approac ...
This paper presents a Model Predictive Control (MPC) scheme for nonlinear continuous time systems where an extra performance index, which is not a measure of the distance to the set point, is introduced to influence the transient behavior of the controlled ...
