On Moments Of Twisted L-Functions

We study the average of the product of the central values of two L-functions of modular forms f and g twisted by Dirichlet characters to a large prime modulus q. As our principal tools, we use spectral theory to develop bounds on averages of shifted convol ...

Multi Level Monte Carlo Methods for Uncertainty Quantification and Robust Design Optimization in Aerodynamics

Michele Pisaroni

The vast majority of problems that arise in aircraft production and operation require decisions to be made in the presence of uncertainty. An effective and accurate quantification and control of the level of uncertainty introduced in the design phase and d ...

Impact of neutral density fluctuations on gas puff imaging diagnostics

Paolo Ricci, Christoph Wersal

A three-dimensional turbulence simulation of the SOL and edge regions of a toroidally limited tokamak is carried out. The simulation couples self-consistently the drift-reduced two-fluid Braginskii equations to a kinetic equation for neutral atoms. A diagn ...

A new method to break the mass-sheet degeneracy using aperture moments

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Markus Rexroth

Mass determinations from gravitational lensing shear and the higher order estimator flexion are both subject to the mass-sheet degeneracy. Mass sheet degeneracy refers to a transformation that leaves the reduced shear and flexion invariant. In general, thi ...

‪Stochastic Control-A Moment Approach to Sparse Control Design‬

We consider design of sparse controllers for a stochastic linear system with infinite horizon quadratic objective. We formulate the non-sparse optimal solution through a semidefinite program for the second order moments of the states and inputs. Given that ...

One-dimensional bedforms in shallow water flow over erodible slope: stability analysis and stochastic dynamics.

Christophe Ancey

We consider one-dimensional bedforms (e.g., anti-dunes, dunes, ripples), and investigate their stability and stochastic dynamics by combining numerical stochastic simulations and linear stability analysis. We focus on anti-dune development in supercritical ...

Moment bounds and asymptotics for the stochastic wave equation

Robert Dalang, Le Chen

We consider the stochastic wave equation on the real line driven by space time white noise and with irregular initial data. We give bounds on higher moments and, for the hyperbolic Anderson model, explicit formulas for second moments. These bounds imply we ...

Time-domain algorithm for single-photon laser-Doppler flowmetry at large interoptode spacing in human bone

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville

A new laser-Doppler flowmeter at large interoptode spacing, based on single-photon counting (single-photon laser-Doppler flowmetry [SP-LDF]) and allowing assessment of blood flow deep in bone tissue, is proposed and implemented. To exploit the advantages o ...

Distributionally Robust Joint Chance Constraints with Second-Order Moment Information

Daniel Kuhn

We develop tractable semidefinite programming based approximations for distributionally robust individual and joint chance constraints, assuming that only the first- and second-order moments as well as the support of the uncertain parameters are given. It ...

Stable averages of central values of Rankin-Selberg L-functions: Some new variants

Paul David Nelson

As shown by Michel and Ramakrishnan (2007) and later generalized by Feigon and Whitehouse (2008), there are "stable" formulas for the average central L-value of the Rankin-Selberg convolutions of some holomorphic forms of fixed even weight and large level ...
