The NLS approximation for two dimensional deep gravity waves
This article is concerned with infinite depth gravity water waves in two
space dimensions. We consider this system expressed in position-velocity
potential holomorphic coordinates. Our goal is to study this problem with small
wave packet data, and to show that this is well approximated by the cubic
nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation (NLS) on the natural cubic time scale.Comment: 23 page
Global bounds for the cubic nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation (NLS) in one space dimension
This article is concerned with the small data problem for the cubic nonlinear
Schr\"odinger equation (NLS) in one space dimension, and short range
modifications of it. We provide a new, simpler approach in order to prove that
global solutions exist for data which is small in . In the same
setting we also discuss the related problems of obtaining a modified scattering
expansion for the solution, as well as asymptotic completeness.Comment: 15 pages. We fixed the proof of Lemma 2.
Bounded Coordinate-Descent for Biological Sequence Classification in High Dimensional Predictor Space
We present a framework for discriminative sequence classification where the
learner works directly in the high dimensional predictor space of all
subsequences in the training set. This is possible by employing a new
coordinate-descent algorithm coupled with bounding the magnitude of the
gradient for selecting discriminative subsequences fast. We characterize the
loss functions for which our generic learning algorithm can be applied and
present concrete implementations for logistic regression (binomial
log-likelihood loss) and support vector machines (squared hinge loss).
Application of our algorithm to protein remote homology detection and remote
fold recognition results in performance comparable to that of state-of-the-art
methods (e.g., kernel support vector machines). Unlike state-of-the-art
classifiers, the resulting classification models are simply lists of weighted
discriminative subsequences and can thus be interpreted and related to the
biological problem
Two dimensional water waves in holomorphic coordinates II: global solutions
This article is concerned with the infinite depth water wave equation in two
space dimensions. We consider this problem expressed in position-velocity
potential holomorphic coordinates,and prove that small localized data leads to
global solutions. This article is a continuation of authors' earlier paper
arXiv:1401.1252.Comment: 21 pages. We have updated the authors' inf
The lifespan of small data solutions in two dimensional capillary water waves
This article is concerned with the incompressible, irrotational infinite
depth water wave equation in two space dimensions, without gravity but with
surface tension. We consider this problem expressed in position-velocity
potential holomorphic coordinates,and prove that small data solutions have at
least cubic lifespan while small localized data leads to global solutions.Comment: Typos corrected, references updated, final versio
Two dimensional gravity water waves with constant vorticity: I. Cubic lifespan
This article is concerned with the incompressible, infinite depth water wave
equation in two space dimensions, with gravity and constant vorticity but with
no surface tension. We consider this problem expressed in position-velocity
potential holomorphic coordinates, and prove local well-posedness for large
data, as well as cubic lifespan bounds for small data solutions.Comment: 64 page
Enhanced Lifespan of Smooth Solutions of a Burgers-Hilbert Equation
We consider an initial value problem for a quadratically nonlinear inviscid
Burgers-Hilbert equation that models the motion of vorticity discontinuities.
We use a normal form transformation, which is implemented by means of a
near-identity coordinate change of the independent spatial variable, to prove
the existence of small, smooth solutions over cubically nonlinear time-scales.
For vorticity discontinuities, this result means that there is a cubically
nonlinear time-scale before the onset of filamentation.Comment: 13 pages, 1 figur
Some Reflections on the Liability of States for International Illicit Acts
The authors aim to foray in the institution of international responsibility, addressing constituent issues of international responsibility. Accountability is the general international law whichestablishes a legal relationship exclusively between two or more subjects of international law. International responsibility of a state can only be driven by another subject of international law whose international subjective right he violated (breach). If a Member suffers an injury directly and immediately, he may apply directly responsible for such State to obtain reparation. Rather, the injury suffered by a particular breach (violation) of international law does not provide, thereby, as a victim toobtain redress in international courts. A state - and can attract international responsibility only if the author of an international fact illegal. There is a wrongful act of the state, where: a) conduct consisting of an action or omission may be attributed (imputed), in accordance with international law, rule, and b)that conduct constitutes a breach of an international obligation of the State. The doctrine generally recognized international scope of these two elements gives rise to international responsibility of thestate
THE EUROPEAN BUSINESS CYCLE
The construction of European Monetary Union has raised several questions about the existence of a common business cycle, a European one. The lack of cyclical synchronization would complicate the monetary and fiscal policies in the Union, being a negativeEuropean business cycle, correlation, synchronization of business cycles
