We consider the reconstruction problem in compressed sensing in which the observations are recorded in a finite number of bits. They may thus contain quantization errors (from being rounded to the nearest representable value) and saturation…
We develop a Lagrangian approach to conservation-law anomalies in weak solutions of inviscid Burgers equation, motivated by previous work on the Kraichnan model of turbulent scalar advection. We show that the entropy solutions of Burgers…
