A new framework for formulating reachability problems with competing inputs, nonlinear dynamics and state constraints as optimal control problems is developed. Such reach-avoid problems arise in, among others, the study of safety problems…
We present a fast sweeping method for a class of Hamilton-Jacobi equations that arise from time-independent problems in optimal control theory. The basic method in two dimensions uses a four point stencil and is extremely simple to…
We present an algorithm for the approximation of a finite horizon optimal control problem for advection-diffusion equations. The method is based on the coupling between an adaptive POD representation of the solution and a Dynamic…
We show that non-dominated sorting of a sequence of i.i.d. random variables in Euclidean space has a continuum limit that corresponds to solving a Hamilton-Jacobi equation involving the probability density function of the random variables.…
The diffusive viscous wave equation describes wave propagation in diffusive and viscous media. Examples include seismic waves traveling through the Earth's crust, taking into account of both the elastic properties of rocks and the…
We present an accelerated algorithm for the solution of static Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equations related to optimal control problems. Our scheme is based on a classic policy iteration procedure, which is known to have superlinear…
We design fast numerical methods for Hamilton-Jacobi equations in density space (HJD), which arises in optimal transport and mean field games. We overcome the curse-of-infinite-dimensionality nature of HJD by proposing a generalized Hopf…
This article proposes a Variational Quantum Algorithm to solve linear and nonlinear thermofluid dynamic transport equations. The hybrid classical-quantum framework is applied to problems governed by the heat, wave, and Burgers' equation in…
Travelling wave solutions of reaction-diffusion equations are widely used to model the spatial spread of populations and other phenomena in biology and physics. In this article, we reinterpret the classical variational principle approach…
This paper deals with a stochastic recursive optimal control problem, where the diffusion coefficient depends on the control variable and the control domain is not necessarily convex. We focus on the connection between the general maximum…
This paper presents Lax formulae for solving the following optimal control problems: minimize the maximum (or the minimum) cost over a time horizon, while satisfying a state constraint. We present a viscosity theory, and by applying the…
Accurate propagation of orbital uncertainty is essential for a range of applications within space domain awareness. Adaptive Gaussian mixture-based approaches offer tractable nonlinear uncertainty propagation through splitting mixands to…
This article introduces a new class of fast algorithms to approximate variational problems involving unbalanced optimal transport. While classical optimal transport considers only normalized probability distributions, it is important for…
In this paper, we aim to develop the theory of optimal stochastic control for branching diffusion processes where both the movement and the reproduction of the particles depend on the control. More precisely, we study the problem of…
Longstanding problems regarding the causality of the diffusion equation are resolved through a class of exact solutions. A universal differential solution for diffusive processes is derived that is causal and exact at any analytic point in…

In this paper new innovative fourth order compact schemes for Robin and Neumann boundary conditions have been developed for boundary value problems of elliptic PDEs in two and three dimensions. Different from traditional finite difference…
In this work, we discuss and compare three methods for the numerical approximation of constant- and variable-coefficient diffusion equations in both single and composite domains with possible discontinuity in the solution/flux at…
We consider continuous-state and continuous-time control problems where the admissible trajectories of the system are constrained to remain on a union of half-planes which share a common straight line. This set will be named a junction. We…
