The Carter Constant For Inclined Orbits About A Massive Kerr Black Hole: I. Circular Orbits, Peter G. Komorowski, Sree Ram Valluri, Martin Houde
The Carter Constant For Inclined Orbits About A Massive Kerr Black Hole: I. Circular Orbits, Peter G. Komorowski, Sree Ram Valluri, Martin Houde
Physics and Astronomy Publications
In an extreme binary black hole system, an orbit will increase its angle of inclination (ι) as it evolves in Kerr spacetime. We focus our attention on the behaviour of the Carter constant (Q) for near-polar orbits, and develop an analysis that is independent of and complements radiation-reactionmodels. For a Schwarzschild black hole, the polar orbits represent the abutment between the prograde and retrograde orbits at whichQis at its maximum value for given values of the latus rectum (˜l ) and the eccentricity (e). The introduction of spin (S˜ = |J|/M2) to themassive black hole causes this boundary, or abutment, …

Mathematical Sciences Technical Reports (MSTR)
Computational biology is an interdisciplinary field that applies the techniques of computer science, applied mathematics, and statistics to address biological questions. OR is also interdisciplinary and applies the same mathematical and computational sciences, but to decision-making problems. Both focus on developing mathematical models and designing algorithms to solve them. Models in computational biology vary in their biological domain and can range from the interactions of genes and proteins to the relationships among organisms and species.
Lipchitzian Stability Of Parametric Variational Inequalities Over Generalized Polyhedra In Banach Spaces, Liqun Ban, Boris S. Mordukhovich, Wen Song
Lipchitzian Stability Of Parametric Variational Inequalities Over Generalized Polyhedra In Banach Spaces, Liqun Ban, Boris S. Mordukhovich, Wen Song
Mathematics Research Reports
This paper concerns the study of solution maps to parameterized variational inequalities over generalized polyhedra in reflexive Banach spaces. It has been recognized that generalized polyhedral sets are significantly different from the usual convex polyhedra in infinite dimensions and play an important role in various applications to optimization, particularly to generalized linear programming. Our main goal is to fully characterize robust Lipschitzian stability of the aforementioned solutions maps entirely via their initial data. This is done on the base of the coderivative criterion in variational analysis via efficient calculations of the coderivative and related objects for the systems under consideration. …
The Positive Solutions Of The Matukuma Equation And The Problem Of Finite Radius And Finite Mass, Jurgen Batt, Yi Li
The Positive Solutions Of The Matukuma Equation And The Problem Of Finite Radius And Finite Mass, Jurgen Batt, Yi Li
Yi Li
This work is an extensive study of the 3 different types of positive solutions of the Matukuma equation 1r2(r2ϕ′)′=−rλ−2(1+r2)λ/2ϕp,p>1,λ>0 : the E-solutions (regular at r = 0), the M-solutions (singular at r = 0) and the F-solutions (whose existence begins away from r = 0). An essential tool is a transformation of the equation into a 2-dimensional asymptotically autonomous system, whose limit sets (by a theorem of H. R. Thieme) are the limit sets of Emden–Fowler systems, and serve as to characterizate the different solutions. The emphasis lies on the study of the M-solutions. …

All HMC Faculty Publications and Research
Numerical simulations of lubrication models provide clues for experimentalists about the development of wave structures in thin liquid films. We analyze numerical simulations of a lubrication model for an inclined thin liquid film modified by Marangoni forces due to a thermal gradient and additional localized forcing heating the substrate. Numerical results can be explained through connections to theory for hyperbolic conservation laws predicting wave fronts from Marangoni-driven thin films without forcing. We demonstrate how a variety of forcing profiles, such as Gaussian, rectangular, and triangular, affect the formation of downstream transient structures, including an N wave not commonly discussed in …
Curvedland: An Applet For Illustrating Curved Geometry Without Embedding, Gary Felder, Stephanie Erickson
Curvedland: An Applet For Illustrating Curved Geometry Without Embedding, Gary Felder, Stephanie Erickson
Physics: Faculty Publications
We have written a Java applet to illustrate the meaning of curved geometry. The applet provides a mapping interface similar to MapQuest or Google Maps; features include the ability to navigate through a space and place permanent point objects and/or shapes at arbitrary positions. The underlying two-dimensional space has a constant, positive curvature, which causes the apparent paths and shapes of the objects in the map to appear distorted in ways that change as you view them from different relative angles and distances.

Generalized Newton's Method Based On Graphical Derivatives, T Hoheisel, C Kanzow, Boris S. Mordukhovich, Hung M. Phan
Mathematics Research Reports
This paper concerns developing a numerical method of the Newton type to solve systems of nonlinear equations described by nonsmooth continuous functions. We propose and justify a new generalized Newton algorithm based on graphical derivatives, which have never been used to derive a Newton-type method for solving nonsmooth equations. Based on advanced techniques of variational analysis and generalized differentiation, we establish the well-posedness of the algorithm, its local superlinear convergence, and its global convergence of the Kantorovich type. Our convergence results hold with no semismoothness assumption, which is illustrated by examples. The algorithm and main results obtained in the paper …

A Short-Distance Integral-Balance Solution To A Strong Subdiffusion Equation: A Weak Power-Law Profile, Jordan Hristov
Jordan Hristov
The work presents an integral solution of the time-fractional subdiffusion through a preliminary defined profile with unknown coefficients and the concept of penetration layer well known from the heat diffusion The profile satisfies the boundary conditions imposed at the boundary of the boundary layer in a weak form that allows its coefficients to be expressed through the boundary layer depth as unique parameter describing the profile. The technique is demonstrated by a solution of a time fractional subdiffusion equation in rectilinear 1-D conditions.

Existence Of Solutions For A Semilinear Wave Equation With Non-Monotone Nonlinearity, Alfonso Castro, Benjamin Preskill '09
Existence Of Solutions For A Semilinear Wave Equation With Non-Monotone Nonlinearity, Alfonso Castro, Benjamin Preskill '09
All HMC Faculty Publications and Research
For double-periodic and Dirichlet-periodic boundary conditions, we prove the existence of solutions to a forced semilinear wave equation with asymptotically linear nonlinearity, no resonance, and non-monotone nonlinearity when the forcing term is not flat on characteristics. The solutions are in L∞ when the forcing term is in L∞ and continous when the forcing term is continuous. This is in contrast with the results in [4], where the non-enxistence of continuous solutions is established even when forcing term is of class C∞ but is flat on a characteristic.

The phase error, or the pollution effect in the finite element solution of wave propagation problems, is a well known phenomenon that must be confronted when solving problems in the high-frequency range. This paper presents a new method with no phase errors for one-dimensional (1D) time-harmonic wave propagation problems using new ideas that hold promise for the multidimensional case. The method is constructed within the framework of the discontinuous Petrov–Galerkin (DPG) method with optimal test functions. We have previously shown that such methods select solutions that are the best possible approximations in an energy norm dual to any selected test …

Deformation Waves In Microstructured Materials: Theory And Numerics, Juri Engelbrecht, Arkadi Berezovski, Mihhail Berezovski
Publications
A linear model of the microstructured continuum based on Mindlin theory is adopted which can be represented in the framework of the internal variable theory. Fully coupled systems of equations for macro-motion and microstructure evolution are represented in the form of conservation laws. A modification of wave propagation algorithm is used for numerical calculations. Results of direct numerical simulations of wave propagation in periodic medium are compared with similar results for the continuous media with the modelled microstructure. It is shown that the proper choice of material constants should be made to match the results obtained by both approaches
Neural Extensions To Robust Parameter Design, Bernard Jacob Loeffelholz
Neural Extensions To Robust Parameter Design, Bernard Jacob Loeffelholz
Theses and Dissertations
Robust parameter design (RPD) is implemented in systems in which a user wants to minimize the variance of a system response caused by uncontrollable factors while obtaining a consistent and reliable system response over time. We propose the use of artificial neural networks to compensate for highly non-linear problems that quadratic regression fails to accurately model. RPD is conducted under the assumption that the relationship between system response and controllable and uncontrollable variables does not change over time. We propose a methodology to find a new set of settings that will be robust to moderate system degradation while remaining robust …

A Generalised Kummer's Conjecture, M. J.R. Myers
University Faculty Publications and Creative Works
Kummer's conjecture predicts the rate of growth of the relative class numbers of cyclotomic fields of prime conductor. We extend Kummer's conjecture to cyclotomic fields of conductor n, where n is any natural number. We show that the Elliott-Halberstam conjecture implies that this generalised Kummer's conjecture is true for almost all n but is false for infinitely many n.

Non-Classical Symmetry Solutions To The Fitzhugh Nagumo Equation., Arash Mehraban
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
In Reaction-Diffusion systems, some parameters can influence the behavior of other parameters in that system. Thus reaction diffusion equations are often used to model the behavior of biological phenomena. The Fitzhugh Nagumo partial differential equation is a reaction diffusion equation that arises both in population genetics and in modeling the transmission of action potentials in the nervous system. In this paper we are interested in finding solutions to this equation. Using Lie groups in particular, we would like to find symmetries of the Fitzhugh Nagumo equation that reduce this non-linear PDE to an Ordinary Differential Equation. In order to accomplish …
G-Lattices For An Unrooted Perfect Phylogeny, Monica Grigg
G-Lattices For An Unrooted Perfect Phylogeny, Monica Grigg
Mathematical Sciences Technical Reports (MSTR)
We look at the Pure Parsimony problem and the Perfect Phylogeny Haplotyping problem. From the Pure Parsimony problem we consider structures of genotypes called g-lattices. These structures either provide solutions or give bounds to the pure parsimony problem. In particular, we investigate which of these structures supports an unrooted perfect phylogeny, a condition that adds biological interpretation. By understanding which g-lattices support an unrooted perfect phylogeny, we connect two of the standard biological inference rules used to recreate how genetic diversity propagates across generations.

A Spectral Approach To Protein Structure Alignment, Yosi Shibberu, Allen Holder
Mathematical Sciences Technical Reports (MSTR)
We present two algorithms that use spectral methods to align protein folds. One of the algorithms is suitable for database searches, the other for difficult alignments. We present computational results for 780 pairwise alignments used to classify 40 proteins as well as results for a separate set of 36 protein alignments used for comparison to four other alignment algorithms. We also provide a mathematically rigorous development of the intrinsic geometry underlying our spectral approach.
Mutation Size Optimizes Speciation In An Evolutionary Model, Nathan Dees, Sonya Bahar
Mutation Size Optimizes Speciation In An Evolutionary Model, Nathan Dees, Sonya Bahar
Physics Faculty Works
The role of mutation rate in optimizing key features of evolutionary dynamics has recently been investigated in various computational models. Here, we address the related question of how maximum mutation size affects the formation of species in a simple computational evolutionary model. We find that the number of species is maximized for intermediate values of a mutation size parameter μ; the result is observed for evolving organisms on a randomly changing landscape as well as in a version of the model where negative feedback exists between the local population size and the fitness provided by the landscape. The same result …

Bilinear Programming And Protein Structure Alignment, J. Cain, D. Kamenetsky, N. Lavine
Mathematical Sciences Technical Reports (MSTR)
Proteins are a primary functional component of organic life, and understanding their function is integral to many areas of research in biochemistry. The three-dimensional structure of a protein largely determines this function. Protein structure alignment compares the structure of a protein with known function to that of a protein with unknown function. A protein’s three-dimensional structure can be transformed through a smooth piecewise-linear sigmoid function to a real symmetric contact matrix that represents the functional significance of certain parts of the protein. We address the protein alignment problem as a minimization of the 2-norm difference of two proteins’ contact matrices. …

Disturbance in a forest’s canopy, whether caused by treefall, limbfall, landslide, or fire determines not only the distribution of well-lit patches at any given time, but also the ways in which the forest changes over time. In this dissertation, I use a 25 year record of treefall gap formation find a novel and highly patterned process of forest disturbance and regeneration, providing a local mechanism by examining the factors that influence the likelihood of treefall. I then develop a stochastic cellular automaton for disturbance and regeneration based on the analysis of this long term data set and illustrate the potential …

On The Solution Of The Vibration Equation By Means Of The Homotopy Perturbation Method, Ahmet Yıldırım, Canan Ünlü, Syed T. Mohyud-Din
Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)
In this paper, we present a reliable algorithm, the homotopy perturbation method, to solve the well-known vibration equation for very large membrane which is given initial conditions. By using initial value, the explicit solutions of the equation for different cases have been derived, which accelerate the rapid convergence of the series solution. Numerical results show that the homotopy perturbation method is easy to implement and accurate when applied to differential equations. Numerical results for different particular cases of the problem are presented graphically.

A Note On He’S Parameter-Expansion Method Of Coupled Van Der Pol–Duffing Oscillators, N. H. Sweilam, M. M. Khader
Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)
This paper presents the analytical and approximate solutions of the coupled chaotic Van der Pol-Duffing systems, by using the He's parameter-expansion method (PEM). One iteration is sufficient to obtain a highly accurate solution, which is valid for the whole solution domain. From the obtained results, we can conclude that the suggest method, is of utter simplicity, and can be easily extended to all kinds of non-linear equations.

Exact Solitary-Wave Special Solutions For The Nonlinear Dispersive K(M,N) Equations By Means Of The Homotopy Analysis Method, Ahmet Yıldırım, Canan Ünlü, Syed T. Mohyud-Din
Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)
In this paper, we study the nonlinear dispersive K(m,n) equations which exhibit solutions with solitary patterns. New exact solitary solutions are found. The two special cases, K(2, 2) and K(3, 3), are chosen to illustrate the concrete features of the homotopy analysis method in K(m,n) equations. The nonlinear equations K(m,n) are studied for two different cases, namely when m = n being odd and even integers. General formulas for the solutions of K(m,n) equations are established.
