We study a finite{dimensional approach to the Heath Jarrow Morton model
for interest rate and introduce a notion of approximate consistency for a family of functions
in a deterministic and stochastic framework. This amounts to asking the decrease
of the minimum distance in least squares sense. We… |

We study the Stekloff eigenvalue problem for the so-called pseudo p-Laplacian operator. After proving the existence of an unbounded sequence of eigenvalues, we focus on the first nontrivial eigenvalue ?, providing various equivalent characterizations for it. We also prove an upper bound for ? in… |

In this paper, an alternative approach to implement initial and boundary conditions in the lattice Boltzmann method is presented. The main idea is to approximate the nonequilibrium component of distribution functions as a third-order power series in the lattice velocities and formulate a procedure… |

Lattice Boltzmann models (LBM) and phase field models (PFM) are two of the most widespread approaches for the numerical study of multicomponent fluid systems. Both methods have been successfully employed by several authors but, despite their popularity, still remains unclear how to properly compare… |

We study by computer simulations the dynamics of a droplet of passive, isotropic fluid, embedded in a polar active gel. The latter represents a fluid of active force dipoles, which exert either contractile or extensile stresses on their surroundings, modelling for instance a suspension of… |

For kernels zi which are positive and integrable we show that the operator g bar right arrow J(v)g = integral(x)(0) v(x-s)g(s)ds on a finite time interval enjoys a regularizing effect when applied to Holder continuous and Lebesgue functions and a "contractive" effect when applied to Sobolev… |

In this paper we deal with a semilinear hyperbolic chemotaxis model in one space dimension
evolving on a network, with suitable transmission conditions at nodes. This framework is motivated
by tissue-engineering scaffolds used for improving wound healing. We introduce a numerical scheme,
which… |

In this work we have studied in situ the formation and growth of calcium phosphate (CaP) nanoparticles (NPs) in the presence of three calcium-binding carboxylate molecules having different affinities for Ca2+ ions: citrate (Cit), hydroxycitrate (CitOH), and glutarate (Glr). The formation of CaP NPs… |
