In this thesis we explore uncertainty quantification of forward and inverse problems involving differential equations. Differential equations are widely employed for modeling natural and social phenomena, with applications in engineering, chemistry, meteor ...
Stabilized Runge???Kutta methods are especially efficient for the numerical solution of large systems of stiff nonlinear differential equations because they are fully explicit. For semi-discrete parabolic problems, for instance, stabilized Runge???Kutta me ...
The homotopy continuation method has been widely used to compute multiple solutions of nonlinear differential equations, but the computational cost grows exponentially based on the traditional finite difference and finite element discretizations. In this w ...
We introduce the "continuized" Nesterov acceleration, a close variant of Nesterov acceleration whose variables are indexed by a continuous time parameter. The two variables continuously mix following a linear ordinary differential equation and take gradien ...
We investigate experimentally and theoretically diffusiophoretic separation of negatively charged particles in a rectangular channel flow, driven by CO2 dissolution from one side-wall. Since the negatively charged particles create an exclusion zone near th ...
A recent series of theoretical works showed that the dynamics of neural networks with a certain initialisation are well-captured by kernel methods. Concurrent empirical work demonstrated that kernel methods can come close to the performance of neural netwo ...
We consider the singular set in the thin obstacle problem with weight vertical bar x(n +1)vertical bar(a) for a epsilon (-1, 1), which arises as the local extension of the obstacle problem for the fractional Laplacian (a nonlocal problem). We develop a ref ...
In the context of cardiac electrophysiology, we propose a novel computational approach to highlight and explain the long-debated mechanisms behind atrial fibrillation (AF) and to reliably numerically predict its induction and sustainment. A key role is pla ...
We show that the finite time blow up solutions for the co-rotational Wave Maps problem constructed in [7,15] are stable under suitably small perturbations within the co-rotational class, provided the scaling parameter λ(t)=t−1−ν is sufficiently close to ...
Path integrals play a crucial role in describing the dynamics of physical systems subject to classical or quantum noise. In fact, when correctly normalized, they express the probability of transition between two states of the system. In this work, we show ...
