We establish the existence of weak solutions of coupled systems of elliptic partial differential equations with quasimonotone nonlinearities in the domain interior and on the boundary. When the nonlinearities satisfy some monotonicity…
The non-Hermitian dynamics of open systems deal with how intricate coherent effects of a closed system intertwine with the impact of coupling to an environment. The system-environment dynamics can then lead to so-called exceptional points,…
We extend slow manifolds near a transcritical singularity in a fast-slow system given by the explicit Euler discretization of the corresponding continuous-time normal form. The analysis uses the blow-up method and direct trajectory-based…
When are asymptotic approximations using the delta-method uniformly valid? We provide sufficient conditions as well as closely related necessary conditions for uniform negligibility of the remainder of such approximations. These conditions…
Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev (HLS) Inequality fails in the "critical" case: \mu=n. However, for discrete HLS, we can derive a finite form of HLS inequality with logarithm correction for a critical case: \mu=n and p=q, by limiting the inequality…
Minimax optimization has been central in addressing various applications in machine learning, game theory, and control theory. Prior literature has thus far mainly focused on studying such problems in the continuous domain, e.g.,…
Real-life problems are governed by equations which are nonlinear in nature. Nonlinear equations occur in modeling problems, such as minimizing costs in industries and minimizing risks in businesses. A technique which does not involve the…
The research problem in this work is the relaxation of maximizing non-negative submodular plus modular with the entire real number domain as its value range over a family of down-closed sets. We seek a feasible point $\mathbf{x}^*$ in the…
A semilinear initial-boundary value problem with a Caputo time derivative of fractional order $\alpha\in(0,1)$ is considered, solutions of which typically exhibit a singular behaviour at an initial time. For L1-type discretizations of this…
In this paper we are interested on the well-posedness of Dirichlet problems associated to integro-differential elliptic operators of order $\alpha < 1$ in a bounded smooth domain $\Omega$ . The main difficulty arises because of losses of…
The emptiness and containment problems for probabilistic automata are natural quantitative generalisations of the classical language emptiness and inclusion problems for Boolean automata. It is well known that both problems are undecidable.…
By a combination of variational and topological techniques in the presence of invariant cones, we detect a new type of positive axially symmetric solutions of the Dirichlet problem for the elliptic equation $$ -\Delta u + u = a(x)|u|^{p-2}u…
Submodularity is a key property in discrete optimization. Submodularity has been widely used for analyzing the greedy algorithm to give performance bounds and providing insight into the construction of valid inequalities for mixed-integer…
A discretization of a continuum theory with constraints or conserved quantities is called mimetic if it mirrors the conserved laws or constraints of the continuum theory at the discrete level. Such discretizations have been found useful in…
We consider weak distributional solutions to the equation $-\Delta_pu=f(u)$ in half-spaces under zero Dirichlet boundary condition. We assume that the nonlinearity is positive and superlinear at zero. For $p>2$ (the case $1<p\leq2$ is…
We consider an integrability test for ultradiscrete equations based on the singularity confinement analysis for discrete equations. We show how singularity pattern of the test is transformed into that of ultradiscrete equation. The…
Given a mixture between two populations of coins, "positive" coins that each have -- unknown and potentially different -- bias $\geq\frac{1}{2}+\Delta$ and "negative" coins with bias $\leq\frac{1}{2}-\Delta$, we consider the task of…
In some optimal control problems, complex relationships between states and inputs cannot be easily represented using continuous constraints, necessitating the use of discrete logic instead. This paper presents a method for incorporating…
We establish the convergence of pseudospectra in Hausdorff distance for closed operators acting in different Hilbert spaces and converging in the generalised norm resolvent sense. As an assumption, we exclude the case that the limiting…
