In this work, we study constant-coefficient first order systems of partial differential equations and give necessary and sufficient conditions for those systems to have a well-posed Cauchy problem. In many physical ...

We study strong hyperbolicity of first order partial differential equationsfor systems with differential constraints. In these cases, the number ofequations is larger than the unknown fields, therefore, the standard ...

Bounding surface plasticity models based on one-dimensional hardening functions are broadly accepted as a valid approach to represent the multiaxial cyclic behavior of undrained cohesive soils. However, under certain ...

We extend the result in J. Reine Angew. Math. 664, 29-53, to the non-compact case. Namely, we prove that the canonical connection on a simply connected and irreducible naturally reductive space is unique, provided the space ...

This work is devoted to study of Tonelli Hamiltonians with symmetries from the point of view of symplectic reduction. The goal is to apply techniques of this theory in the determination of minimizing invariant measures and ...

The discrete mollification method is a data smoothing procedure, based on convolution, that is appropriate for the stabilization of explicit schemes for the numerical solution of partial differential equations and the ...

The objective of this research is to propose an efficient energy management system for photovoltaic (PV) generation units connected to monopolar DC distribution networks via convex optimization while considering a day-ahead ...

The relationship between violence and growth has been typically associated with capi- tal destruction and institutional change. This paper proposes a new channel through which violence impacts growth: cognitive changes ...
