The Substitution Theorem For Semilinear Stochastic Partial Differential Equations, Salah-Eldin A. Mohammed, Tusheng Zhang
The Substitution Theorem For Semilinear Stochastic Partial Differential Equations, Salah-Eldin A. Mohammed, Tusheng Zhang
Articles and Preprints
In this article we establish a substitution theorem for semilinear stochastic evolution equations (see's) depending on the initial condition as an infinite-dimensional parameter. Due to the infinitedimensionality of the initial conditions and of the stochastic dynamics, existing finite-dimensional results do not apply. The substitution theorem is proved using Malliavin calculus techniques together with new estimates on the underlying stochastic semiflow. Applications of the theorem include dynamic characterizations of solutions of stochastic partial differential equations (spde's) with anticipating initial conditions and non-ergodic stationary solutions. In particular, our result gives a new existence theorem for solutions of semilinear Stratonovich spde's with anticipating …

On The Total Duration Of Negative Surplus Of A Risk Process With Two-Step Premium Function, Pavlina Jordanova
On The Total Duration Of Negative Surplus Of A Risk Process With Two-Step Premium Function, Pavlina Jordanova
Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)
We consider a risk reserve process whose premium rate reduces from cd to cu when the reserve comes above some critical value v. In the model of Cramer-Lundberg with initial capital u ≥ 0, we obtain the probability that ruin does not occur before the first up-crossing of level v. When u < v, following H. Gerber and E. Shiu (1997), we derive the probability that starting with initial capital u ruin occurs and the severity of ruin is not bigger than v. Further we express the probability of ruin in the two step premium function model - ψ (u,v), by the last two probabilities. Our assumptions imply that the surplus process will go to infinity almost surely. This entails that the process will stay below zero only temporarily. We derive the distribution of the total duration of negative surplus and obtain its Laplace transform and mean value. As a consequence of these results, under certain conditions in the Model of Cramer-Lundberg we obtain the expected value of the severity of ruin. In the end of the paper we give examples with exponential claim sizes.

Gravity-Driven Thin Liquid Films With Insoluble Surfactant: Smooth Traveling Waves, Rachel Levy, Michael Shearer, Thomas P. Witelski
Gravity-Driven Thin Liquid Films With Insoluble Surfactant: Smooth Traveling Waves, Rachel Levy, Michael Shearer, Thomas P. Witelski
All HMC Faculty Publications and Research
The flow of a thin layer of fluid down an inclined plane is modified by the presence of insoluble surfactant. For any finite surfactant mass, traveling waves are constructed for a system of lubrication equations describing the evolution of the free-surface fluid height and the surfactant concentration. The one-parameter family of solutions is investigated using perturbation theory with three small parameters: the coefficient of surface tension, the surfactant diffusivity, and the coefficient of the gravity-driven diffusive spreading of the fluid. When all three parameters are zero, the nonlinear PDE system is hyperbolic/degenerateparabolic, and admits traveling wave solutions in which the …
A New Family Of Pr Two Channel Filter Banks, Jian-Ao Lian
A New Family Of Pr Two Channel Filter Banks, Jian-Ao Lian
Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)
A new family of multidimensional dimensional (MD) perfect reconstruction (PR) two channel filter banks with finite impulse response (FIR) filters induced from systems of biorthogonal MD scaling functions and wavelets are introduced. One of the advantages of this construction is that the biorthogonal scaling functions and wavelets are easy to establish due to the interpolatory property of the scaling functions to start with. The other advantage is that all filters can be centrosymmetric or bi-linear phase. Examples of two dimensional (2D) bi-linear phase PR twochannel FIR filter banks will be demonstrated.
Bidimensional Pr Qmf With Fir Filters, Jian-Ao Lian
Bidimensional Pr Qmf With Fir Filters, Jian-Ao Lian
Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)
Multidimensional perfect reconstruction (PR) quadrature mirror filter (QMF) banks with finite impulse response (FIR) filters induced from systems of biorthogonal multivariate scaling functions and wavelets are investigated. In particular, bivariate scaling functions and wavelets with dilation as an expansive integer matrix whose determinant is two in absolute value are considered. Demonstrative quincunxial examples are explicitly given and new FIR filters are constructed.
On Mathematical Modeling, Nonlinear Properties And Stability Of Secondary Flow In A Dendrite Layer, D. N. Riahi
On Mathematical Modeling, Nonlinear Properties And Stability Of Secondary Flow In A Dendrite Layer, D. N. Riahi
Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)
This paper studies instabilities in the flow of melt within a horizontal dendrite layer with deformed upper boundary and in the presence or absence of rotation during the solidification of a binary alloy. In the presence of rotation, it is assumed that the layer is rotating about a vertical axis at a constant angular velocity. Linear and weakly nonlinear stability analyses provide results about various flow features such as the critical mode of convection, neutral stability curve, preferred flow pattern and the solid fraction distribution within the dendrite layer. The preferred shape of the deformed upper boundary of the layer, …
What Allows Teachers To Extend Student Thinking During Whole-Group Discussions, Nesrin Cengiz
What Allows Teachers To Extend Student Thinking During Whole-Group Discussions, Nesrin Cengiz
Dissertations
Research indicates that extending students' mathematical thinking during whole-group discussions is challenging, even for the most experienced teachers. That is, it is challenging for teachers to help students move beyond their initial mathematical observations and solutions during whole-group discussions. To better understand this phenomena, the teaching of six experienced elementary school teachers, who had been teaching aStandards-based curriculum for several years and had participated in a multi-year professional development project focused on that curriculum, is explored in this study. In particular, two issues are addressed: what it looks like to extend student thinking during whole-group discussions and how …
A Lower Estimate For The Norm Of The Kerzman-Stein Operator, Michael Bolt
A Lower Estimate For The Norm Of The Kerzman-Stein Operator, Michael Bolt
University Faculty Publications and Creative Works
We establish an elementary lower estimate for the norm of the Kerzman-Stein operator for a smooth, bounded domain. The estimate involves the boundary length and logarithmic capacity. The estimate is tested on model domains for which the norm is known explicitly. It is shown that the estimate is sharp for an annulus and a strip, and is asymptotically sharp for an ellipse and a wedge. © 2007 Rocky Mountain Mathematics Consortium.

Loss-Based Estimation With Evolutionary Algorithms And Cross-Validation, David Shilane, Richard H. Liang, Sandrine Dudoit
Loss-Based Estimation With Evolutionary Algorithms And Cross-Validation, David Shilane, Richard H. Liang, Sandrine Dudoit
U.C. Berkeley Division of Biostatistics Working Paper Series
Many statistical inference methods rely upon selection procedures to estimate a parameter of the joint distribution of explanatory and outcome data, such as the regression function. Within the general framework for loss-based estimation of Dudoit and van der Laan, this project proposes an evolutionary algorithm (EA) as a procedure for risk optimization. We also analyze the size of the parameter space for polynomial regression under an interaction constraints along with constraints on either the polynomial or variable degree.

Relative Pareto Minimizers To Multiobjective Problems: Existence And Optimality Conditions, Truong Q. Bao, Boris S. Mordukhovich
Relative Pareto Minimizers To Multiobjective Problems: Existence And Optimality Conditions, Truong Q. Bao, Boris S. Mordukhovich
Mathematics Research Reports
In this paper we introduce and study enhanced notions of relative Pareto minimizers to constrained multiobjective problems that are defined via several kinds of relative interiors of ordering cones and occupy intermediate positions between the classical notions of Pareto and weak Pareto efficiency/minimality. Using advanced tools of variational analysis and generalized differentiation, we establish the existence of relative Pareto minimizers to general multiobjective problems under a refined version of the subdifferential Palais-Smale condition for set-valued mappings with values in partially ordered spaces and then derive necessary optimality conditions for these minimizers (as well as for conventional efficient and weak efficient …

Posterminaries: More Or Less Modern, Alexander H. King
Alexander H. King
It is yet another sign that I am aging. More and more often when young researchers hand me a written report of their research, I find myself criticizing their introductory section: “You need to start your literature survey with the original papers on this topic. Go and read…” followed by a citation to some classic of the learned literature.
Image Reconstruction In Multi-Channel Model Under Gaussian Noise, Veera Holdai, Alexander Korostelev
Image Reconstruction In Multi-Channel Model Under Gaussian Noise, Veera Holdai, Alexander Korostelev
Mathematics Research Reports
The image reconstruction from noisy data is studied. A nonparametric boundary function is estimated from observations in N independent channels in Gaussian white noise. In each channel the image and the background intensities are unknown. They define a non-identifiable nuisance "parameter" that slows down the typical minimax rate of convergence. The large sample asymptotics of the minimax risk is found and an asymptotically optimal estimator for boundary function is suggested.
A Universal Theory Of Pseudocodewords, Nathan Axvig, Emily Price, Eric T. Psota, Deanna Turk, Lance C. Pérez, Judy L. Walker
A Universal Theory Of Pseudocodewords, Nathan Axvig, Emily Price, Eric T. Psota, Deanna Turk, Lance C. Pérez, Judy L. Walker
Department of Mathematics: Faculty Publications
Three types of pseudocodewords for LDPC codes are found in the literature: graph cover pseudocodewords, linear programming pseudocodewords, and computation tree pseudocodewords. In this paper we first review these three notions and known connections between them. We then propose a new decoding rule — universal cover decoding — for LDPC codes. This new decoding rule also has a notion of pseudocodeword attached, and this fourth notion provides a framework in which we can better understand the other three.
A Hyperbolic Two -Step Model Based Finite Difference Method For Studying Thermal Deformation In A Micro Thin Film Heated By Ultrashort -Pulsed Lasers, Tianchan Niu
Doctoral Dissertations
Heat transport through micro thin films plays a very important role in microtechnology applications. Many microelectronic devices have metal thin films as their key components. Microscale heat transfer is also important for the thermal processing of materials, including laser micromachining, laser patterning, laser synthesis and laser surface hardening. Hence, studying the thermal behavior of thin films is essential for predicting the performance of a microelectronic device or for obtaining the desired microstructure. Recently, it has become very popular to use ultrashort-pulsed lasers in thermal processing, which lasers have pulse durations of the order of subpicoseconds to femtoseconds, and these kinds …

Mathematical Analysis Of Pde Systems Which Govern °Uid Structure Interactive Phenomena, George Avalos, Roberto Triggiani
Department of Mathematics: Faculty Publications
In this paper, we review and comment upon recently derived results for time dependent partial differential equation (PDE) models, which have been used to describe the various fluid-structure interactions which occur in nature. For these fluid-structure PDEs, this survey is particularly focused on the authors' results of (i) semigroup wellposedness, (ii) stability, and (iii) backward uniqueness.
Necessary Conditions For Super Minimizers In Constrained Multiobjective Optimization, Truong Q. Bao, Boris S. Mordukhovich
Necessary Conditions For Super Minimizers In Constrained Multiobjective Optimization, Truong Q. Bao, Boris S. Mordukhovich
Mathematics Research Reports
This paper concerns the study of the so-called super minimizers related to the concept of super efficiency in constrained problems of multiobjective optimization, where cost mappings are generally set-valued. We derive necessary conditions for super minimizers on the base of advanced tools of variational analysis and generalized differentiation that are new in both finite-dimensional and infinite-dimensional settings for problems with single-valued and set-valued objectives.
The Apostle Table - Part Iii - Incompetent Endogenous Response Intransitivity, David Randall Jenkins
The Apostle Table - Part Iii - Incompetent Endogenous Response Intransitivity, David Randall Jenkins
David Randall Jenkins
The Apostle Table illustrates a New Testament encryption scheme revealed in the Book of Matthew. Specifically, the list of the twelve apostles in Matthew, 10:1-4, points to the Matthew, Chapters 8 and 9, disciple characterizations. The disciples metaphorically characterize the social choice theory aspect of the scripture writers' (ordered relations theory: social choice theory: welfare model) regression. The paper is written in two parts: I. The Exogenous Pressures; and, II. The Endogenous Response. Interestingly, the paper explains why the crucified Jesus could not get off the cross.
Time-Dependent Performance Comparison Of Stochastic Optimization Algorithms, David Shilane, Jarno Martikainen, Seppo Ovaska
Time-Dependent Performance Comparison Of Stochastic Optimization Algorithms, David Shilane, Jarno Martikainen, Seppo Ovaska
U.C. Berkeley Division of Biostatistics Working Paper Series
This paper proposes a statistical methodology for comparing the performance of stochastic optimization algorithms that iteratively generate candidate optima. The fundamental data structure of the results of these algorithms is a time series. Algorithmic differences may be assessed through a procedure of statistical sampling and multiple hypothesis testing of time series data. Shilane et al. propose a general framework for performance comparison of stochastic optimization algorithms that result in a single candidate optimum. This project seeks to extend this framework to assess performance in time series data structures. The proposed methodology analyzes empirical data to determine the generation intervals in …
Automorphic Decompositions Of Graphs, Robert Beeler
Automorphic Decompositions Of Graphs, Robert Beeler
All Dissertations
Let G and H be graphs. A G-decomposition D of a graph H is a partition of the edge set of H such that the subgraph induced by the edges in each part of the partition is isomorphic to G. It is well known that a graceful labelling (or more generally a rho-valuation) of a graph G induces a cyclic G-decomposition of a complete graph. We will extend these notions to that of a general valuation in a cyclic group. Such valuations yield decompositions of circulant graphs. We will show that every graph has a valuation and hence is a …
The Barycenter Of The Numerical Range Of A Matrix, Sean A. Broughton, Roger G. Lautzenheiser, Thomas Werne
The Barycenter Of The Numerical Range Of A Matrix, Sean A. Broughton, Roger G. Lautzenheiser, Thomas Werne
Mathematical Sciences Technical Reports (MSTR)
The numerical range W(A) of an nxn matrix A is the totality of the scalar products <Ax,x> as x varies over all unit vectors in Cn The barycenter (center of mass) of the numerical range is defined geometrically as the center of mass of W(A) considered as a planar lamina with variable density and also as a limit of sample averages (<Ax1,x1>+...+<AxN,xN>)/N. Under a wide range the sampling schemes it is shown that the barycenter is the average of the spectrum …
Permutation Decoding Of Codes From Graphs And Designs, Padmapani Seneviratne
Permutation Decoding Of Codes From Graphs And Designs, Padmapani Seneviratne
All Dissertations
Permutation decoding is a technique, developed by Jessie McWilliams in 1960's. It involves finding a set of automorphisms of the code, called a PD-set. If such a set exists and if the generator matrix of the code is in standard form then a simple algorithm using this set can be followed to correct the maximum number of errors of which the code is capable. Primarily this method was used originally on cyclic codes and Golay codes.
In this dissertation we study binary codes formed from an adjacency matrix of some classes of graphs and apply the permutation decoding method to …
Planning, Scheduling, And Timetabling In A University Setting, Christine Kraft
Planning, Scheduling, And Timetabling In A University Setting, Christine Kraft
All Dissertations
Methods and procedures for modeling university student populations, predicting course enrollment, allocating course seats, and timetabling final examinations are studied and proposed. The university enrollment model presented uses a multi-dimensional state space based on student demographics and the Markov property, rather than longitudinal data to model student movement. The procedure for creating adaptive course prediction models uses student characteristics to identify groups of undergraduates whose specific course enrollment rates are significantly different than the rest of the university population. Historical enrollment rates and current semester information complete the model for predicting enrollment for the coming semester. The course prediction model …
Numerical Approximation Of Shear-Thinning And Johnson-Segalman Viscoelastic Fluid Flows, Jason Howell
Numerical Approximation Of Shear-Thinning And Johnson-Segalman Viscoelastic Fluid Flows, Jason Howell
All Dissertations
In this work computational approaches to the numerical simulation of steady-state viscoelastic fluid flow are investigated. In particular, two aspects of computing viscoelastic flows are of interest: 1) the stable computation of high Weissenberg number Johnson-Segalman fluids and 2) low-order approaches to simulating the flow of fluids obeying a power law constitutive model.
The numerical simulation of viscoelastic fluid flow becomes more difficult as a physical parameter, the Weissenberg number, increases. Specifically, at a Weissenberg number larger than a critical value, the iterative nonlinear solver fails to converge. For the nonlinear Johnson-Segalman constitutive model, defect-correction and continuation methods are examined …
Estimates Related To The Arithmetic Of Elliptic Curves, Bryan Faulkner
Estimates Related To The Arithmetic Of Elliptic Curves, Bryan Faulkner
All Dissertations
This dissertation presents results related to two problems in the arithmetic of elliptic curves.
Feng and Xiong equate the nontriviality of the Selmer groups associated with congruent number curves to the presence of certain types of partitions of graphs associated with the prime factorization of n. The triviality of the Selmer groups associated to the congruent number curve implies that the curve has rank zero which in turn implies n is noncongruent. We extend the ideas of Feng and Xiong in order to compute the Selmer groups of congruent number curves.
We prove an average version of a generalization of …
Optimization And Feedback Design Of State-Constrained Parabolic Systems, Boris S. Mordukhovich
Optimization And Feedback Design Of State-Constrained Parabolic Systems, Boris S. Mordukhovich
Mathematics Research Reports
The paper is devoted to optimal control and feedback design of stateconstrained parabolic systems in uncertainty conditions. Problems of this type are among the most challenging and difficult in dynamic optimization for any kind of dynamical systems. We pay the main attention to considering linear multidimensional parabolic'systems with Dirichlet boundary controls and pointwise state constraints, while the methods developed in this study are applicable to other kinds of boundary controls and dynamical systems of the parabolic type. The feedback design problem is formulated in the minimax sense to ensure stabilization of transients within the prescribed diapason and robust stability of …
