On time correlations for last passage percolation models

Abstract: We study time correlations of last passage percolation (LPP), a model in the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang universality class, with three different geometries: step, flat and stationary. We prove the ...

A model for a network of conveyor belts with discontinuous speed and capacity

We introduce a macroscopic model for a network of conveyor belts with various speeds and capacities. In a different way from traffic flow models, the product densities are forced to move with a consta...

Domain and wall pattern in thin-film ferromagnets

Abstract: The magnetization of a ferromagnet is known to form patterns in order to minimize the sum of exchange and stray-field energy (even in the absence of a strong crystalline anisotropy, as in so...

Computational non-commutative geometry for materials science: The example of multilayer 2D materials

Abstract: Descrizione:Computational non-commutative geometry for materials science: The example of multilayer 2D materials After recalling the standard mathematical formalism used to model disordered ...

Adaptive Filtered Schemes for first order Hamilton-Jacobi equations

The accurate numerical solution of Hamilton-Jacobi equations is a challenging topic of growing importance in many fields of application but due to the lack of regularity of viscosity solutions the con...

Modelli variazionali per singolarità topologiche e applicazioni ai policristalli e alla loro evoluzione

In questo seminario presenterò alcuni risultati, ottenuti negli ultimi anni, riguardanti modelli variazionali per singolarità topologiche in due dimensioni e per flussi geometrici di tipo locale e non...

Image denoising techniques for astronomical images

The goal of image denoising algorithms is to reduce the contribution of the observational noise intrinsic to the images, preserving information (e.g. small sources, morphological details etc.). State-...

The physics of glasses form the viewpoint of theoretical physicists

Abstract: Glassy materials are characterized by being solid (for all practical purpose) at low temperature in absence of a sharp transition from the liquid phase to the solid state.  They are ubi...
