Dynamics of horizontal-like maps in higher dimension
We study the regularity of the Green currents and of the equilibrium measure
associated to a horizontal-like map in C^k, under a natural assumption on the
dynamical degrees. We estimate the speed of convergence towards the Green
currents, the decay of correlations for the equilibrium measure and the
Lyapounov exponents. We show in particular that the equilibrium measure is
hyperbolic. We also show that the Green currents are the unique invariant
vertical and horizontal positive closed currents. The results apply, in
particular, to Henon-like maps, to regular polynomial automorphisms of C^k and
to their small pertubations.Comment: Dedicated to Professor Gennadi Henkin on the occasion of his 65th

On the Design of Secure Full-Duplex Multiuser Systems under User Grouping Method
Consider a full-duplex (FD) multiuser system where an FD base station (BS) is
designed to simultaneously serve both downlink users and uplink users in the
presence of half-duplex eavesdroppers (Eves). Our problem is to maximize the
minimum secrecy rate (SR) among all legitimate users by proposing a novel user
grouping method, where information signals at the FD-BS are accompanied with
artificial noise to degrade the Eves' channel. The SR problem has a highly
nonconcave and nonsmooth objective, subject to nonconvex constraints due to
coupling between the optimization variables. Nevertheless, we develop a
path-following low-complexity algorithm, which invokes only a simple convex
program of moderate dimensions at each iteration. We show that our
path-following algorithm guarantees convergence at least to a local optima. The
numerical results demonstrate the merit of our proposed approach compared to
existing well-known ones, i.e., conventional FD and nonorthogonal multiple
access.Comment: 6 pages, 3 figure
Convergence of a series associated with the convexification method for coefficient inverse problems
This paper is concerned with the convergence of a series associated with a
certain version of the convexification method. That version has been recently
developed by the research group of the first author for solving coefficient
inverse problems. The convexification method aims to construct a globally
convex Tikhonov-like functional with a Carleman Weight Function in it. In the
previous works the construction of the strictly convex weighted Tikhonov-like
functional assumes a truncated Fourier series (i.e. a finite series instead of
an infinite one) for a function generated by the total wave field. In this
paper we prove a convergence property for this truncated Fourier series
approximation. More precisely, we show that the residual of the approximate PDE
obtained by using the truncated Fourier series tends to zero in as the
truncation index in the truncated Fourier series tends to infinity. The proof
relies on a convergence result in the -norm for a sequence of
-orthogonal projections on finite-dimensional subspaces spanned by
elements of a special Fourier basis. However, due to the ill-posed nature of
coefficient inverse problems, we cannot prove that the solution of that
approximate PDE, which results from the minimization of that Tikhonov-like
functional, converges to the correct solution.Comment: 15 page
On "the authentic damping mechanism" of the phonon damping model
Some general features of the phonon damping model are presented. It is
concluded that the fits performed within this model have no physical content
