A generic framework to derive systems of conservation laws with source terms and its application to heat conduction in fluid flows: An alternative to the method of moments in kinetic theory of gases?★ [PDF]
ESAIM: Proceedings and SurveysA generic framework to derive systems of conservation laws through the Stationary Action Principle is proposed. The equations are expressed in Eulerian coordinates while the variation of the action assumes an underlying Lagrangian description thus ...

Asymptotics of Time Harmonic Solutions to a Thin Ferroelectric Model
Abstract and Applied Analysis, 2007 We introduce new model equations to describe the dynamics of the electric polarization in a ferroelectric material. We consider a thin cylinder representing the material with thickness ɛ and discuss the asymptotic behavior of the time harmonic solutions

The Isoperimetric Problem in Carnot-Caratéodory Spaces
Bruno Pini Mathematical Analysis Seminar, 2017 We present some recent results obtained on the isoperimetric problem in a class of Carnot-Carathéodory spaces, related to the Heisenberg group. This is the framework of Pansu’s conjecture about the shape of isoperimetric sets.

A note on the von Neumann algebra of a Baumslag-Solitar group [PDF]
, 2010 We study qualitative properties of the group von Neumann algebra of a Baumslag-Solitar group. Namely, we prove that, in the non-amenable and {ICC} case, the associated ${\rm II}_1$ factor is prime, not solid, and does not have any Cartan ...

Local BDNF Delivery to the Injured Cervical Spinal Cord using an Engineered Hydrogel Enhances Diaphragmatic Respiratory Function. [PDF]
, 2018 We developed an innovative biomaterial-based approach to repair the critical neural circuitry that controls diaphragm activation by locally delivering brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) to injured cervical spinal cord.

Open Journal of Mathematical OptimizationIn this work, we propose an adaptive variation on the classical Heavy-ball method for convex quadratic minimization. The adaptivity crucially relies on so-called “Polyak step-sizes”, which consists of using the knowledge of the optimal value of the ...
