We investigate the time evolution process of one selected (initially prepared by optical pumping) vibrational molecular state, coupled to all other intra-molecular vibrational states of the same molecule, and also to its environment.…
We postulate a principle stating that the initial condition of a physical system is typically algorithmically independent of the dynamical law. We argue that this links thermodynamics and causal inference. On the one hand, it entails…
Control systems involving unknown parameters appear a natural framework for applications in which the model design has to take into account various uncertainties. In these circumstances the performance criterion can be given in terms of an…
The sequential compactness afforded hybrid systems under mild regularity constraints guarantee outer/upper semicontinuous dependence of solutions on initial conditions and perturbations. For reachable sets of hybrid systems, this property…
Stochastic maximum principle of nonlinear controlled forward-backward systems, where the set of strict (classical) controls need not be convex and the diffusion coefficient depends explicitly on the variable control, is an open problem…
An analytical theory is presented for the damping of low-frequency adsorbate vibrations via resonant coupling to the substrate phonons. The system is treated classically, with the substrate modeled as a semi-infinite elastic continuum and…
A key part of any evolutionary algorithm is fitness evaluation. When fitness evaluations are corrupted by noise, as happens in many real-world problems as a consequence of various types of uncertainty, a strategy is needed in order to cope…
When an interacting many-body system, such as a magnet, is driven in time by an external perturbation, such as a magnetic field,the system cannot respond instantaneously due to relaxational delay. The response of such a system under a…
In dynamical systems governed by differential equations, a guarantee that trajectories emanating from a given set of initial conditions do not enter another given set can be obtained by constructing a barrier function that satisfies certain…
This paper considers an optimization problem for a dynamical system whose evolution depends on a collection of binary decision variables. We develop scalable approximation algorithms with provable suboptimality bounds to provide…
The main purpose of this paper is to establish the first and second order necessary optimality conditions for stochastic optimal controls using the classical variational analysis approach. The control system is governed by a stochastic…
We consider the problem of zero-delay coding of a dynamical system over a discrete noiseless channel under three estimation criteria concerned with the low-distortion regime. For these three criteria, formulated stochastically in terms of a…
An interface description and numerical simulations of model A kinetics are used for the first time to investigate the intra-surface kinetics of phase ordering on corrugated surfaces. Geometrical dynamical equations are derived for the…
We study the dynamics of the quantum phase distribution associated with the reduced density matrix of a system for a number of situations of practical importance, as the system evolves under the influence of its environment, interacting via…
A review of economic approaches showed the lack of a universal method for assessing management decisions in the face of an increasing volume of analyzed data and changing parameters of the external environment. The method of integral…
In this paper, we consider a class of optimal control problems governed by 1D parabolic state-systems of KWC types with dynamic boundary conditions. The state-systems are based on a phase-field model of grain boundary motion, proposed in…
The emphasis on inertia for system stability has been a long-held tradition in conventional grids. The fast and flexible controllability of inverters opens up new possibilities. This paper investigates the {first-swing stability} of…
We show the convergence of the zero relaxation limit in systems of $2 \times 2$ hyperbolic conservation laws with stochastic initial data. Precisely, solutions converge to a solution of the local equilibrium approximation as the relaxation…
The long-time behavior of the survival probability for unstable multilevel systems that follows the power-decay law is studied based on the N-level Friedrichs model, and is shown to depend on the initial population in unstable states. A…
Dynamical systems often contain oscillatory forces or depend on periodic potentials. Time or space periodicity is reflected in the properties of these systems through a dependence on the parameters of their periodic terms. In this paper we…
