A parabolic analogue of Finn's maximum principle

open access: yesAbstract and Applied Analysis, 1998
We obtain a parabolic analogue of the well-known maximum principle established by R. Finn for solutions of the minimal surface equation.

A Pontryagin Maximum Principle in Wasserstein spaces for constrained optimal control problems [PDF]

open access: yesE S A I M: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations, 2018
In this paper, we prove a Pontryagin Maximum Principle for constrained optimal control problems in the Wasserstein space of probability measures. The dynamics is described by a transport equation with non-local velocities which are affine in the control,

Belief Reliability Distribution Based on Maximum Entropy Principle

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2018
Belief reliability is a new reliability metric based on the uncertainty theory, which aims to measure system performance incorporating the influences from design margin, aleatory uncertainty, and epistemic uncertainty.

Maximum entropy production principle in forest dynamics modelling [PDF]

open access: yesBIO Web of Conferences
Forest ecosystems are vivid representatives of open non-equilibrium systems. The existence of extreme principles in “ecological thermodynamics” is a subject of discussion in the works of many physicists, ecologists and researchers dealing with non ...

On the strong maximum principle for nonlocal operators [PDF]

open access: yesMathematische Zeitschrift, 2017
In this paper we derive a strong maximum principle for weak supersolutions of nonlocal equations of the form $$\begin{aligned} Iu=c(x) u \qquad \text { in }\,\Omega , \end{aligned}$$Iu=c(x)uinΩ,where $$\Omega \subset \mathbb {R}^N$$Ω⊂RN is a domain, $$c ...

The Latent Maximum Entropy Principle [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
We present an extension of Jaynes\u27 maximum entropy principle to handle latent variables. We use an EM algorithm that incorporates nested iterative scaling to approximately calculate maximum entropy solutions for this principle, and give a proof of its

Some Inequalities for the Omori-Yau Maximum Principle

open access: yesAbstract and Applied Analysis, 2015
We generalize A. Borbély’s condition for the conclusion of the Omori-Yau maximum principle for the Laplace operator on a complete Riemannian manifold to a second-order linear semielliptic operator L with bounded coefficients and no zeroth order term ...

The Latent Maximum Entropy Principle [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We present an extension to Jaynes’ maximum entropy principle that incorporates latent variables. The principle of latent maximum entropy we propose is different from both Jaynes’ maximum entropy principle and maximum likelihood estimation, but can yield ...
