The low-temperature driven or thermally activated motion of several condensed matter systems is often modeled by the dynamics of interfaces (co-dimension-1 elastic manifolds) subject to a random potential. Two characteristic quantitative…

We address the problem of distributed cooperative localization in wireless networks, i.e. nodes without prior position knowledge (agents) wish to determine their own positions. In non-cooperative approaches, positioning is only based on…
In this paper we design and analyze an explicit partitioned procedure for a 2D dynamic local-to-nonlocal (LtN) coupling problem, based on a new nonlocal Robin-type transmission condition. The nonlocal subproblem is modeled by the nonlocal…

We study nonlocal integral equations on bounded domains with finite-range nonlocal interactions that are localized at the boundary. We establish a Green's identity for the nonlocal operator that recovers the classical boundary integral,…

We extend the approach in [Ann. Statist. 38 (2010) 2499-2524] for identifying locally optimal designs for nonlinear models. Conceptually the extension is relatively simple, but the consequences in terms of applications are profound. As we…

We introduce a set of local procedures that are capable of controlling distributed systems that exhibit complex dynamical behavior. These local controllers need only perturb local parameters and use local information about the state of the…
Weakly nonlocal thermodynamic theories are critically revisited. A relocalized, irreversible thermodynamic theory of nonlocal phenomena is given, based on a modified form of the entropy current and new kind of internal variables, the so…
In electromagnetics and photonics, "nonlocality" refers to the phenomenon by which the response/output of a material or system at a certain point in space depends on the input field across an extended region of space. While nonlocal effects…
