Almost Prüfer v-Multiplication Domains and Related Domains of the Form D + D S [Γ*]

Let D be an integral domain, S be a (saturated) multiplicative subset of D such that D ? D _S , Γ be a numerical semigroup with Γ ? ?₀, Γ* = Γ?{0}, X be an indeterminate over D, D + XD _S [X] = {a + Xg ∈ D _S [X]∣a ∈ D and g ∈ D _S [X]}, and D + D _S [Γ*] = {a + f ∈ D _S [Γ]∣a ∈ D and f ∈ D _S [Γ*]}; so D + D _S [Γ*] ? D + XD _S [X]. In this article, we study when D + D _S [Γ*] is an APvMD, an AGCD-domain, an AS-domain, an AP-domain, or an AB-domain.     

完全3- 一致超图的一类填充问题和覆盖问题

设Γ 是一些单t- 一致超图的集合. 填充设计P_λ(t, Γ, v) (或覆盖设计C_λ(t, Γ, v)) 是一个二元有序组(X, B), 其中X 是完全t- 一致超图λK_v^(t) 的顶点集, B 是λK_v^(t) 的一些子超图的集合, 要求每个子超图都同构于Γ 中的某一个超图, 每个子超图称为是一个区组, 并且满足λK_v^(t) 中的每一条边至多(或至少) 含在B 的λ 个区组中. 给定参数t, v, λ, Γ, 填充设计P_λ(t, Γ, v) 的最大可能的区组数称为填充数, 记为d_λ(t, Γ, v); 覆盖设计C_λ(t, Γ, v) 的最小可能的区组数称为覆盖数, 记为C_λ(t, Γ, v). 本文将确定Γ 中仅含超图K₄⁽³⁾ + e 时的d_λ(t, Γ, v) 和C_λ(t, Γ, v) 的精确值.     

A duality recipe for non-convex variational problems

The aim of this paper is to present a general convexification recipe that can be useful for studying non-convex variational problems. In particular, this allows us to treat such problems by using a powerful primal–dual scheme. Possible further developments and open issues are given.

Some properties of BLUE in a linear model and canonical correlations associated with linear transformations

Let (x, Xβ, V) be a linear model and let A′ = (A′₁, A′₂) be a p × p nonsingular matrix such that A₂X = 0, Rank A₂ = p − Rank X. We represent the BLUE and its covariance matrix in alternative forms under the conditions that the number of unit canonical correlations between y₁ ( = A₁x) and y₂ ( = A₂x) is zero. For the second problem, let x′ = (x′₁, x′₂) and let a g-inverse V⁻ of V be written as (V⁻)′ = (A′₁, A′₂). We investigate the reations (if any) between the nonzero canonical correlations {1 ₁ … ₁ > 0} due to y₁ ( = A₁x) and y₂ ( = A₂x), and the nonzero canonical correlations {1 λ₁ … λ_v+r > 0} due to x₁ and x₂. We answer some of the questions raised by Latour et al. (1987, in Proceedings, 2nd Int. Tampere Conf. Statist. (T. Pukkila and S. Puntanen, Eds.), Univ. of Tampere, Finland) in the case of the Moore-Penrose inverse V⁺ = (A′₁, A′₂) of V.     

Unilateral gradient flow of the Ambrosio–Tortorelli functional by minimizing movements

Motivated by models of fracture mechanics, this paper is devoted to the analysis of a unilateral gradient flow of the Ambrosio–Tortorelli functional, where unilaterality comes from an irreversibility constraint on the fracture density. Solutions of such evolution are constructed by means of an implicit Euler scheme. An asymptotic analysis in the Mumford–Shah regime is then carried out. It shows the convergence towards a generalized heat equation outside a time increasing crack set. In the spirit of gradient flows in metric spaces, a notion of curve of maximal unilateral slope is also investigated, and analogies with the unilateral slope of the Mumford–Shah functional are also discussed.     

Hodge decomposition with degenerate weights and the Gross-Pitaevskii energy

We solve a Hodge decomposition problem with respect to a weight function that vanishes on the boundary. This problem is present in several works on the Gross-Pitaevskii energy, and we use our solution to show that a Γ-convergence result that links these works is still valid for more general data than previously considered.     

Γ-convergence of free-discontinuity problems

We study the Γ-convergence of sequences of free-discontinuity functionals depending on vector-valued functions u which can be discontinuous across hypersurfaces whose shape and location are not known a priori. The main novelty of our result is that we work under very general assumptions on the integrands which, in particular, are not required to be periodic in the space variable. Further, we consider the case of surface integrands which are not bounded from below by the amplitude of the jump of u.We obtain three main results: compactness with respect to Γ-convergence, representation of the Γ-limit in an integral form and identification of its integrands, and homogenisation formulas without periodicity assumptions. In particular, the classical case of periodic homogenisation follows as a by-product of our analysis. Moreover, our result covers also the case of stochastic homogenisation, as we will show in a forthcoming paper.     

On the interface boundary conditions between two interacting incompressible viscous fluid flows

We consider two incompressible viscous fluid flows interacting through thin non-Newtonian boundary layers of higher Reynolds? number. We study the asymptotic behaviour of the problem, with respect to the vanishing thickness of the layers, using Γ-convergence methods. We derive general interfacial boundary conditions between the two fluid flows. These boundary conditions are specified for some particular cases including periodic or fractal structures of layers.
