Global convergence of quorum-sensing networks [PDF]
Physical Review E, 2010 In many natural synchronization phenomena, communication between individual elements occurs not directly, but rather through the environment. One of these instances is bacterial quorum sensing, where bacteria release signaling molecules in the ...

Global convergence in the vulnerability of forests to drought [PDF]
Nature, 2012 Shifts in rainfall patterns and increasing temperatures associated with climate change are likely to cause widespread forest decline in regions where droughts are predicted to increase in duration and severity. One primary cause of productivity loss and plant mortality during drought is hydraulic failure.

Global Business Cycles: Convergence or Decoupling? [PDF]
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2008 We analyze the evolution of the degree of global cyclical interdependence over the period 1960–2008. Using a dynamic factor model, we decompose macroeconomic fluctuations in output, consumption, and investment into a global factor, factors specific to country groups, and country‐specific factors. We find that during 1985–2008, there is some convergence

Policy Optimization for H2 Linear Control with H∞ Robustness Guarantee: Implicit Regularization and Global Convergence [PDF]
SIAM Journal of Control and Optimization, 2019 Policy optimization (PO) is a key ingredient for reinforcement learning (RL). For control design, certain constraints are usually enforced on the policies to optimize, accounting for either the stability, robustness, or safety concerns on the system ...

On the global convergence of Broyden’s method [PDF]
Mathematics of Computation, 1976 We consider Broyden’s 1965 method for solving nonlinear equations. If the mapping is linear, then a simple modification of this method guarantees global and Q-superlinear convergence. For nonlinear mappings it is shown that the hybrid strategy for nonlinear equations due to Powell leads to R-superlinear convergence provided the search directions form a
