Variational Methods in Loop Quantum Cosmology
An action functional for the loop quantum cosmology difference equation is presented. It is shown that by guessing the general form of the solution and optimizing the action functional with respect to the parameters in the guessed solution one can obtain

Variational methods in the presence of symmetry
The purpose of this paper is to survey and to provide a unified framework to connect a diverse group of results, currently scattered in the literature, that can be usefully viewed as consequences of applying variational methods to problems involving ...

In this paper, we study the following nonlinear problem of Kirchhoff type: { − ( a + b ∫ R 3 | ∇ u | 2 ) Δ u + λ V ( x ) u = | u | p − 2 u , in R 3 , u ∈ H 1 ( R 3 ) , $$ \textstyle\begin{cases} - ( a + b\int_{{\mathbb{R}^{3}}} \vert {\nabla u} \vert ...

Evaluation and Comparison of the Configuration Interaction Calculations for Complex Atoms
Configuration interaction (CI) methods are the method of choice for the determination of wave functions for complex atomic systems from which a variety of atomic properties may be computed.

Self-adaptive subgradient extragradient-type methods for solving variational inequalities
In this paper, we introduce two subgradient extragradient-type algorithms for solving variational inequality problems in the real Hilbert space. The first one can be applied when the mapping f is strongly pseudomonotone (not monotone) and Lipschitz ...

The unpredictably eruptive dynamics of spruce budworm populations in eastern Canada
We examine historical population data for spruce budworm from several locations through the period 1930–1997, and use density‐dependent recruitment curves to test whether the pattern of population growth over time is more consistent with Royama's (1984; Ecological Monographs 54:429–462) linear R(t) model of harmonic oscillation at Green River New ...

Necessary conditions for variational regularization schemes
We study variational regularization methods in a general framework, more precisely those methods that use a discrepancy and a regularization functional.

Network topology drives population temporal variability in experimental habitat networks
Habitat patches connected by dispersal pathways form habitat networks. We explored how network topology affects population outcomes in laboratory experiments using a model species (Daphnia carinata). Central habitat nodes in complex lattice networks exhibited lower temporal variability in population sizes, suggesting they support more stable ...

Geographic variation in walking activity in the red flour beetle Tribolium castaneum
This study examined whether there is geographic variation in field populations, focusing on the moving activity in the red flour beetle Tribolium castaneum. Results showed significant differences in moving activity among field populations but no correlation with latitude or meteorological factors.
