We consider model order reduction for a free boundary problem of an osmotic cell that is parameterized by material parameters as well as the initial shape of the cell. Our approach is based on an Arbitrary-Lagrangian-Eulerian description of…
The growing prevalence of nonsmooth optimization problems in machine learning has spurred significant interest in generalized smoothness assumptions. Among these, the (L0, L1)-smoothness assumption has emerged as one of the most prominent.…
We study the problem of optimizing a function under a \emph{budgeted number of evaluations}. We only assume that the function is \emph{locally} smooth around one of its global optima. The difficulty of optimization is measured in terms of…
This paper presents new sufficient conditions for convergence and asymptotic or exponential stability of a stochastic discrete-time system, under which the constructed Lyapunov function always decreases in expectation along the system's…
We present a new methodology for studying non-Hamiltonian nonlinear systems based on an information theoretic extension of a renormalization group technique using a modified maximum entropy principle. We obtain a rigorous dimensionally…
We present a novel space-time isogeometric discretization of the acoustic wave equation in second-order formulation that is intrinsically unconditionally stable. The method relies on a variational framework inspired by [Walkington 2014],…
In this paper, we consider finite difference approximations of the second order wave equation. We use finite difference operators satisfying the summation-by-parts property to discretize the equation in space. Boundary conditions and grid…
In this manuscript we present a method for the quantitative comparison of two surfaces, applicable to temporal and/or spatial extent in one or two dimensions. Often surface comparisons are simply overlaid graphs of results from different…
In this paper, we give an alternative proof for the asymptotic stability of solitons for nonlinear Schr\"odinger equations with internal modes. The novel idea is to use "refined profiles" developed by the authors for the analysis of small…
Because of the isotropic and disordered nature of liquids, the anisotropy hidden in intermolecular interactions are often neglected. Accordingly, the order parameter describing a simple liquid has so far been believed to be only density. In…
Given a set of response observations for a parametrized dynamical system, we seek a parametrized dynamical model that will yield uniformly small response error over a range of parameter values yet has low order. Frequently, access to…
Ordinary Differential Equations are widespread tools to model chemical, physical, biological process but they usually rely on parameters which are of critical importance in terms of dynamic and need to be estimated directly from the data.…
The Bayesian and Akaike information criteria aim at finding a good balance between under- and over-fitting. They are extensively used every day by practitioners. Yet we contend they suffer from at least two afflictions: their penalty…
Tube-like surfaces are widely encountered in geometry processing, engineering structures, and medical anatomy, yet their intrinsic longitudinal and circumferential topology is not well preserved by conventional planar annular or rectangular…
The quadrature of cut elements is crucial for all Finite Element Methods that do not apply boundary-fitted meshes. It should be efficient, accurate, and robust. Various approaches balancing these requirements have been published, with some…
We study multi-parameter Tikhonov regularization, i.e., with multiple penalties. Such models are useful when the sought-for solution exhibits several distinct features simultaneously. Two choice rules, i.e., discrepancy principle and…
For a singularly perturbed elliptic model problem with two small parameters, we analyze finite element methods of any order on a Bakhvalov-type mesh. For convergence analysis, we construct a new interpolation by using the characteristics of…
For flow-enhanced crystallization in fiber spinning, the viscoelastic two-phase fiber models by Doufas et al. (J. Non-Newton. Fluid Mech., 2000) and Shrikhande et al. (J. Appl. Polym. Sci., 2006) are state of the art. However, the boundary…
We develop a new variational formulation of the inverse Stefan problem, where information on the heat flux on the fixed boundary is missing and must be found along with the temperature and free boundary. We employ optimal control framework,…
The paper addresses the stabilization of nonlinear systems with semi-quadratic cost: quadratic with respect to controls and nonlinear for state variables. Paper presents the effective new feedback synthesis procedure. The novel feedback…
