用奇异摄动法设计线性二次型准最优直流控制系统

利用线性最优调节器理论可以设计出具有良好性能指标的晶闸管直流电机控制系统。这种设计方法优于传统的“双环系统”设计。然而,求解Riccati方程的计算量相当大。为寻求最佳加权Q阵,可能耗费许多时间。采用奇异摄动法设计准最优线性系统时,可以化高阶为低阶,从而简化计算工作量。本文利用奇异摄动理论设计了一个晶闸管直流电动机系统。已肯定本法适应于此类设计。本文还比较了不同设计方法所达到的动态性能。     

Resistivity exponent of two-dimensional lattice animals

We calculate the average resistanceR(L) of lattice animals spanningL×L cells on the square lattice using exact and Monte Carlo methods. The dynamical resistivity exponent, defined asR(L) L , is found to be =1.36±0.07. This contradicts the Alexander-Orbach conjecture, which predicts 0.8. Our value for differs from earlier measurements of this quantity by other methods yielding =1.17±0.05 and 1.22±0.08 by Havlin et al.On leave from the Institute of Theoretical Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing, China.     

Dynamics of the current-driven Josephson junction

The irreversible macroscopic dynamics of the Josephson junction coupled to external wires acting as a current source is derived rigorously from the underlying microscopic Hamiltonian quantum mechanics. The external systems are treated in the singular coupling limit. The use of this limit is explicitly justified via an interpretation of the singular coupling limit in terms of the relative magnitudes of system, reservoir, and coupling energies. The qualitative behavior of the macroscopic dynamical equations is shown to depend sensitively and crucially on the interaction between the wires and the superconductors and on the size of the wires: the dc Josephson effect only happens when one lets Cooper pairs be driven into the junction by collective (i.e., small) reservoirs.     

Geometric critical exponent inequalities for general random cluster models

A set of new critical exponent inequalities,d(1 –1 /)2 –, dv(1 – 1/), andd> 1, is proved for a general class of random cluster models, which includes (independent or dependent) percolations, lattice animals (with any interactions), and various stochastic cluster growth models. The inequalities imply that the critical phenomena in the models are inevitably not mean-field-like in the dimensions one, two, and three.The present work was reported at the 56th Statistical Mechanics Meeting (Rutgers, December 1986).     

The lion and man problem revisited

A pursuerP, whose speed is bounded by 1, wants to get closer to an evaderE, whose speed is bounded by >1.P wants to reduce his distancePE fromE below the capture radius . Both players are confined to a circular arena. This problem is equivalent to a problem discussed by Flynn, who characterized and gave numerical bounds to the least upper boundd* on the values ofPE thatE can maintain. He used direct methods and did not use Isaacs' theory.We solve our problem relying on the theory of singular surfaces in differential games. We construct and investigate barriers of the game of kind, and we replace Flynn's bounds ond* by analytical (exact) values for various speeds .The support of the TW Department of THT, Enschede, Holland, is gratefully acknowledged.     

On the initial layer solution of the Boltzmann equation with small Knudsen number

We extend our method of systematic removal of secular terms in a singular perturbation treatment of the Boltzmann equation with small Knudsen numbers to the initial layer. The requirement that the solution through the initial layer should connect smoothly to the normal solution removes an ambiguity noted in our previous paper. We show that removal of secular terms improves Grad's solution for the initial layer and reintroduces soundlike modes associated with higher moments, first found by Wang Chang and Uhlenbeck.     

Molecular conformation search by distance matrix perturbations

Three-dimensional molecular structure is fundamental in chemical function identification and computer-aided drug design. The enumeration of a small number of feasible conformations provides a rigorous way to determine the optimal or a few acceptable conformations. Our contribution concerns a heuristic enhancement of a method based on distance geometry, typically in relation with experiments of the NMR type. Distance geometry has been approached by different viewpoints; ours is expected to help in several subtasks arising in the process that determines 3D structure from distance information. More precisely, the input to our algorithm consists of a set of approximate distances of varying precision; some are specified by the covalent structure and others by Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) experiments (or X-ray crystallography which, however, requires crystallization). The output is a valid tertiary structure in a specified neighborhood of the input. Our approach should help in detecting outliers of the NMR experiments, and handles inputs with partial information. Moreover, our technique is able to bound the number of degrees of freedom of the conformation manifold. We have used numerical linear algebra algorithms for reasons of speed, and because they are well-implemented, fully documented and widely available. Our main tools include, besides distance matrices, structure-preserving matrix perturbations for minimizing singular values. Our MATLAB (or SCILAB) implementation is described and illustrated.AMS subject Classification: 92E10 Molecular structure, 92C40 Biochemistry, molecular biology, 65F15 Eigenvalues, eigenvectors, 15A18 Eigenvalues, singular values, and eigenvectors

Critical exponents,hyperscaling, and universal amplitude ratios for two- and three-dimensional self-avoiding walks

We make a high-precision Monte Carlo study of two- and three-dimensional self-avoiding walks (SAWs) of length up to 80,000 steps, using the pivot algorithm and the Karp-Luby algorithm. We study the critical exponentsv and 2 ₄ – as well as several universal amplitude ratios; in particular, we make an extremely sensitive test of the hyperscaling relationdv = 2 ₄ –. In two dimensions, we confirm the predicted exponentv=3/4 and the hyperscaling relation; we estimate the universal ratios <R _g ² >/<R _e ² >=0.14026±0.00007, <R _m ² >/<R _e ² >=0.43961±0.00034, and ^*=0.66296±0.00043 (68% confidence limits). In three dimensions, we estimatev=0.5877±0.0006 with a correctionto-scaling exponent ₁=0.56±0.03 (subjective 68% confidence limits). This value forv agrees excellently with the field-theoretic renormalization-group prediction, but there is some discrepancy for ₁. Earlier Monte Carlo estimates ofv, which were 0.592, are now seen to be biased by corrections to scaling. We estimate the universal ratios <R _g ² >/<R _e ² >=0.1599±0.0002 and ^*=0.2471±0.0003; since ^*>0, hyperscaling holds. The approach to ^* is from above, contrary to the prediction of the two-parameter renormalization-group theory. We critically reexamine this theory, and explain where the error lies. In an appendix, we prove rigorously (modulo some standard scaling assumptions) the hyperscaling relationdv = 2 ₄ – for two-dimensional SAWs.     

Meromorphic singular foliations on complex projective surfaces

Here we show that many numerical computations and bounds on the degrees of the algebraic leaves for singular meromorphic foliations on ² may be extended to large classes of foliations and complex projective surfaces.The author was partially supported by MURST and GNSAGA of CNR (Italy)
