Many interfacial phenomena in physical and biological systems are dominated by high order geometric quantities such as curvature. Here a semi-implicit method is combined with a level set jet scheme to handle stiff nonlinear advection…
Fourier phase retrieval is a classical problem of restoring a signal only from the measured magnitude of its Fourier transform. Although Fienup-type algorithms, which use prior knowledge in both spatial and Fourier domains, have been widely…

Solutions to special Lagrangian equations near infinity, with supercritical phases or with semiconvexity on solutions, are known to be asymptotic to quadratic polynomials for dimension $n\ge 3$, with an extra logarithmic term for $n=2$. Via…
In this paper, we focus on the approximation of smooth functions $f: [-\pi, \pi] \rightarrow \mathbb{C}$, up to an unresolvable global phase ambiguity, from a finite set of Short Time Fourier Transform (STFT) magnitude (i.e., spectrogram)…
Solving linear systems of equations is a common problem that arises both on its own and as a subroutine in more complex problems: given a matrix A and a vector b, find a vector x such that Ax=b. We consider the case where one doesn't need…
An unsteady problem is considered for a space-fractional equation in a bounded domain. A first-order evolutionary equation involves the square root of an elliptic operator of second order. Finite element approximation in space is employed.…

Edidin [3] proved a fundamental result in phase retrieval: Theorem: A family of orthogonal projections $\{P_i\}_{i=1}^m$ does phase retrieval in $\mathbb{R}^n$ if and only if for every $0\not= x\in \mathbb{R}^n$, the family…
We introduce a method which allows one to recover the equations of motion of a class of nonholonomic systems by finding instead an unconstrained Hamiltonian system on the full phase space, and to restrict the resulting canonical equations…

The Phase Retrieval problem is dealt with for the challenging case where just a single set of (phaseless) radiated field data is available. In particular, even still emulating the solution of crosswords puzzles, we provide decisive…

Nonlinear programming is explicitly analyzed via a novel perspective/method and from a bottom-up manner. The philosophy is based on the recent findings on convex quadratic equation (CQE), which help clarify a geometric interpretation that…
Phase retrieval is in general a non-convex and non-linear task and the corresponding algorithms struggle with the issue of local minima. We consider the case where the measurement samples within typically very small and disconnected subsets…
