There are well-known constructions of integrable systems which are chains of infinitely many copies of the equations of the KP hierarchy ``glued'' together with some additional variables, e.g., the modified KP hierarchy. Another…
Compatible discretizations, such as finite element exterior calculus, provide a discretization framework that respect the cohomological structure of the de Rham complex, which can be used to systematically construct stable mixed finite…
We consider the problem of adaptive stabilization for discrete-time, multi-dimensional linear systems with bounded control input constraints and unbounded stochastic disturbances, where the parameters of the true system are unknown. To…
This paper investigates energy-minimization finite-element approaches for the computation of nematic liquid crystal equilibrium configurations. We compare the performance of these methods when the necessary unit-length constraint is…
This paper is devoted to the study of acceleration methods for an inequality constrained convex optimization problem by using Lyapunov functions. We first approximate such a problem as an unconstrained optimization problem by employing the…
In this paper, we discuss a general framework for multicontinuum homogenization. Multicontinuum models are widely used in many applications and some derivations for these models are established. In these models, several macroscopic…
In this paper, we propose a mass conservative semi-Lagrangian finite difference scheme for multi-dimensional problems without dimensional splitting. The semi-Lagrangian scheme, based on tracing characteristics backward in time from grid…
We extend the divergence preserving cut finite element method presented in [T. Frachon, P. Hansbo, E. Nilsson, S. Zahedi, SIAM J. Sci. Comput., 46 (2024)] for the Darcy interface problem to unfitted outer boundaries. We impose essential…
The $n\to\infty$ continuum limit of super-Toda models associated with the affine $sl(2n|2n)^{(1)}$ (super)algebra series produces $(2+1)$-dimensional integrable equations in the ${\bf S}^{1}\times {\bf R}^2$ spacetimes. The equations of…
Nonlinear dispersionless equations arise as the dispersionless limit of well know integrable hierarchies of equations or by construction, such as the system of hydrodynamic type. Some of these equations are integrable in the Hamiltonian…
Lagrangian coherent structures are effective barriers, sticky regions, that separate phase space regions of different dynamical behavior. The usual way to detect such structures is via finite-time Lyapunov exponents. We show that similar…
Many physical problems involving heterogeneous spatial scales, such as the flow through fractured porous media, the study of fiber-reinforced materials, or the modeling of the small circulation in living tissues -- just to mention a few…
We consider the problem of computing the maximal invariant set of discrete-time linear systems subject to a class of non-convex constraints that admit quadratic relaxations. These non-convex constraints include semialgebraic sets and other…
The integrable structure, recently revealed in some classical problems of the theory of functions in one complex variable, is discussed. Given a simply connected domain in the complex plane, bounded by a simple analytic curve, we consider…
A cell-centered implicit-explicit updated Lagrangian finite volume scheme on unstructured grids is proposed for a unified first order hyperbolic formulation of continuum fluid and solid mechanics. The scheme provably respects the stiff…
This work introduces a port-Hamiltonian (PH) model for constrained mechanical systems, which is directly derived from the Lagrangian equations of motion. The present PH framework incorporates a singularity-free director representation of…
In materials science, wedge disclinations are defects caused by angular mismatches in the crystallographic lattice. To describe such disclinations, we introduce an atomistic model in planar domains. This model is given by a…
In the framework of the reduction technique for Poisson-Nijenhuis structures, we derive a new hierarchy of integrable lattice, whose continuum limit is the AKNS hierarchy. In contrast with other differential-difference versions of the AKNS…
We rigorously derive a strain-gradient model of plasticity as a $\Gamma$-limit of continuum bodies containing finitely-many edge-dislocations (in two dimensions). The key difference from previous such derivations is the elemental notion of…
A discrete multidimensional system is the set of solutions to a system of linear partial difference equations defined on the lattice $\Z^n$. This paper shows that it is determined by a unique coarsest sublattice, in the sense that the…
