Optimal Switching Between Cash-Flow Streams

Thomas Alois Weber

We consider the problem of finding the optimal time to switch between two measurable cash-flow streams. A complete characterization of the set of solutions is obtained in terms of adjoint variables which measure the available gain from deviations. An itera ...

A codimension two stable manifold of near soliton equivariant wave maps

Joachim Krieger, Daniel Tataru

We consider finite-energy equivariant solutions for the wave map problem from ℝ2+1 to S2 which are close to the soliton family. We prove asymptotic orbital stability for a codimension-two class of initial data which is small with respect to a stronger topo ...

Net primary energy balance of a solar-driven photoelectrochemical water-splitting device

Sophia Haussener

A fundamental requirement for a renewable energy generation technology is that it should produce more energy during its lifetime than is required to manufacture it. In this study we evaluate the primary energy requirements of a prospective renewable energy ...
