Smooth B-spline construction on meshes with polar singularities

Representing arbitrary surfaces with a finite number of polynomial patches requires the introduction of polar points for high-valence neighborhoods in quadrilateral meshes. Such holes can be filled by...

Stochastic individual based models: from scaling limits to modelling of cancer therapies

Abstract: Stochastic individual base models, that is, measure valued Markov processes describing the evolution of interacting biological populations, have proven over the last years to be effective mo...

Homogenization for diffusion processes, part 3.

We discuss homogenization for diffusion processes in stationary random environment and several characterizations of the homogenized diffusion coefficient....

The dimer model: equilibrium and non-equilibrium aspects (corso di dottorato)

This course focuses on various mathematical aspects of lattice dimer models. These are very classical two-dimensional statistical mechanics models, that are exactly solvable in some sense (Kasteleyn, ...

Homogenization for diffusion processes, part 2.

We discuss central limit theorems for martigales and homogenization for random walks in random environment....

Some high order filtered schemes for parabolic Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equations

We consider high order numerical schemes for second order Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB) equations. For high order approximation schemes (where "high" stands for greater than one), the inevitable loss ...

Degenerate Parabolic Models for Sand Slides

Four phenomena contribute to wind-induced sand movement and eventually to the formation and evolution of dunes: erosion from the sand bed, transport by the wind, sedimentation due to gravity, and sand...

Homogenization for diffusion processes

We present general tools to prove the central limit theorem for addive functionals of Markov processes and discuss in some detail the application to diffusions in periodic or random enevironment....
