Unique extension of the maximum entropy principle to phase coexistence in heat conduction
Physical Review Research, 2022 The maximum entropy principle determines the values of thermodynamic variables in thermally isolated equilibrium systems. This paper extends the principle to a variational principle that applies to liquid–gas coexistence in heat conduction.

Theory of variational quantum simulation [PDF]
Quantum, 2019 The variational method is a versatile tool for classical simulation of a variety of quantum systems. Great efforts have recently been devoted to its extension to quantum computing for efficiently solving static many-body problems and simulating real and ...

Herglotz type conservation laws for nonconservative nonholonomic systems
AIP Advances, 2023 The Herglotz variational principle offers an effective method for studying nonconservative system dynamics. The aim of this paper is to study the conservation laws of nonholonomic systems by using the Herglotz type generalized variational principle and ...

A Predictor-Corrector Methods for Mixed Inverse Variational Inequalities [PDF]
, 2009 In this paper, a class of mixed inverse variational inequalities is introduced and studied. We prove the existence of the solution of the auxiliary problem for mixed inverse variational inequalities, suggest a predictor-corrector method for solving the ...

The uncertainty principle: Variations on a theme [PDF]
Bulletin of the American Mathematical Society, 2021 We show how a number of well-known uncertainty principles for the Fourier transform, such as the Heisenberg uncertainty principle, the Donoho–Stark uncertainty principle, and Meshulam’s nonabelian uncertainty principle, have little to do with the structure of the Fourier transform itself.

Variational Principles of Micromagnetics Revisited [PDF]
SIAM Journal on Mathematical Analysis, 2020 We revisit the basic variational formulation of the minimization problem associated with the micromagnetic energy, with an emphasis on the treatment of the stray field contribution to the energy, which is intrinsically non-local. Under minimal assumptions, we establish three distinct variational principles for the stray field energy: a minimax ...

Variational principles and variational—iterative principles for a class of problems
Journal of Mathematical Analysis and Applications, 1981 AbstractComplementary variational principles are developed for linear equations in a function space and a variational-iterative scheme, based on these principles, is introduced for non-linear equations.
