We investigate errors in tangents and adjoints of implicit functions resulting from errors in the primal solution due to approximations computed by a numerical solver. Adjoints of systems of linear equations turn out to be unconditionally…

We consider the incompressible Navier--Stokes equations with periodic boundary conditions and time-independent forcing. For this type of flow, we derive adjoint equations whose trajectories converge asymptotically to the equilibrium and…

In this short paper I report on a paper published in Nonlinear Analysis: Real World Applications in 2004. There is a major mistake early in that paper which makes most of its claims false. The class of reaction-diffusion systems considered…

The various versions of cond-mat/0312353 discuss results obtained by me&coworkers in the last decade. I have received requests to comment on the paper and the comments are collected here, including some that I tried to point in the course…

This is a complement to my previous article "Advanced Determinant Calculus" (S\'eminaire Lotharingien Combin. 42 (1999), Article B42q, 67 pp.). In the present article, I share with the reader my experience of applying the methods described…

Aerodynamic drag can be partially approximated by the entropy flux across fluid domain boundaries with a formula due to Oswatitsch. In this paper, we build the adjoint solution that corresponds to this representation of the drag and…

This text is written based on the author's publications during the period from 1991 to 2001. The work is devoted to the theory of Markov intertwining operators and joinings of measure-preserving group actions, as well as to their…

The efficient method for computing the sensitivities is the adjoint method. The cost of solving an adjoint equation is comparable to the cost of solving the governing equation. Once the adjoint solution is obtained, the sensitivities to any…

A mathematical framework for the physics of nonequilibrium phenomena is gradually being developed. This review is meant to shed light on some aspects of Response Theory, on the theory of Fluctuation Relations, on the so-called "t-mixing"…
