Vlasov scaling for stochastic dynamics of continuous systems
We describe a general scheme of derivation of the Vlasov-type equations for
Markov evolutions of particle systems in continuum. This scheme is based on a
proper scaling of corresponding Markov generators and has an algorithmic
realization in terms of related hierarchical chains of correlation functions
equations. Several examples of the realization of the proposed approach in
particular models are presented.Comment: 23 page
Using dashboards for the business processes status analysis
This paper describes business process status analysis using the dashboards. The dashboards are considered as those, which belong to the most preferred Business Intelligence tools nowadays, which are used by both higher managers and ordinary employees. Existing software tools for dashboard design were reviewed, as well as the most popular visualization charts were outlined. The place and role of analytical dashboards as part of business process management is described
Temporal solitons in optical microresonators
Dissipative solitons can emerge in a wide variety of dissipative nonlinear
systems throughout the fields of optics, medicine or biology. Dissipative
solitons can also exist in Kerr-nonlinear optical resonators and rely on the
double balance between parametric gain and resonator loss on the one hand and
nonlinearity and diffraction or dispersion on the other hand. Mathematically
these solitons are solution to the Lugiato-Lefever equation and exist on top of
a continuous wave (cw) background. Here we report the observation of temporal
dissipative solitons in a high-Q optical microresonator. The solitons are
spontaneously generated when the pump laser is tuned through the effective zero
detuning point of a high-Q resonance, leading to an effective red-detuned
pumping. Red-detuned pumping marks a fundamentally new operating regime in
nonlinear microresonators. While usually unstablethis regime acquires unique
stability in the presence of solitons without any active feedback on the
system. The number of solitons in the resonator can be controlled via the pump
laser detuning and transitions to and between soliton states are associated
with discontinuous steps in the resonator transmission. Beyond enabling to
study soliton physics such as soliton crystals our observations open the route
towards compact, high repetition-rate femto-second sources, where the operating
wavelength is not bound to the availability of broadband laser gain media. The
single soliton states correspond in the frequency domain to low-noise optical
frequency combs with smooth spectral envelopes, critical to applications in
broadband spectroscopy, telecommunications, astronomy and low phase-noise
microwave generation.Comment: Includes Supplementary Informatio
Intersection local times of independent fractional Brownian motions as generalized white noise functionals
In this work we present expansions of intersection local times of fractional
Brownian motions in , for any dimension , with arbitrary Hurst
coefficients in . The expansions are in terms of Wick powers of white
noises (corresponding to multiple Wiener integrals), being well-defined in the
sense of generalized white noise functionals. As an application of our
approach, a sufficient condition on for the existence of intersection local
times in is derived, extending the results of D. Nualart and S.
Ortiz-Latorre in "Intersection Local Time for Two Independent Fractional
Brownian Motions" (J. Theoret. Probab.,20(4)(2007), 759-767) to different and
more general Hurst coefficients.Comment: 28 page
Giant Pulses with Nanosecond Time Resolution detected from the Crab Pulsar at 8.5 and 15.1 GHz
We present a study of shape, spectra and polarization properties of giant
pulses (GPs) from the Crab pulsar at the very high frequencies of 8.5 and 15.1
GHz. Studies at 15.1 GHz were performed for the first time. Observations were
conducted with the 100-m radio telescope in Effelsberg in Oct-Nov 2007 at the
frequencies of 8.5 and 15.1 GHz as part of an extensive campaign of
multi-station multi-frequency observations of the Crab pulsar. A selection of
the strongest pulses was recorded with a new data acquisition system, based on
a fast digital oscilloscope, providing nanosecond time resolution in two
polarizations in a bandwidth of about 500 MHz. We analyzed the pulse shapes,
polarisation and dynamic spectra of GPs as well as the cross-correlations
between their LHC and RHC signals. No events were detected outside main pulse
and interpulse windows. GP properties were found to be very different for GPs
emitted at longitudes of the main pulse and the interpulse. Cross-correlations
of the LHC and RHC signals show regular patterns in the frequency domain for
the main pulse, but these are missing for the interpulse GPs. We consider
consequences of application of the rotating vector model to explain the
apparent smooth variation in the position angle of linear polarization for main
pulse GPs.
We also introduce a new scenario of GP generation as a direct consequence of
the polar cap discharge. We find further evidence for strong nano-shot
discharges in the magnetosphere of the Crab pulsar. The repetitive frequency
spectrum seen in GPs at the main pulse phase is interpreted as a diffraction
pattern of regular structures in the emission region. The interpulse GPs
however have a spectrum that resembles that of amplitude modulated noise.
Propagation effects may be the cause of the differences.Comment: Astronomy & Astrophysics (accepted
Conditional Intensity and Gibbsianness of Determinantal Point Processes
The Papangelou intensities of determinantal (or fermion) point processes are
investigated. These exhibit a monotonicity property expressing the repulsive
nature of the interaction, and satisfy a bound implying stochastic domination
by a Poisson point process. We also show that determinantal point processes
satisfy the so-called condition which is a general form of
Gibbsianness. Under a continuity assumption, the Gibbsian conditional
probabilities can be identified explicitly.Comment: revised and extende
Semiclassical stationary states for nonlinear Schroedinger equations with fast decaying potentials
We study the existence of stationnary positive solutions for a class of
nonlinear Schroedinger equations with a nonnegative continuous potential V.
Amongst other results, we prove that if V has a positive local minimum, and if
the exponent of the nonlinearity satisfies N/(N-2)<p<(N+2)/(N-2), then for
small epsilon the problem admits positive solutions which concentrate as
epsilon goes to 0 around the local minimum point of V. The novelty is that no
restriction is imposed on the rate of decay of V. In particular, we cover the
case where V is compactly supported.Comment: 22 page
