Spinning particles in the vacuum C metric

The motion of a spinning test particle given by the Mathisson-Papapetrou equations is studied on an exterior vacuum C metric background spacetime describing the accelerated motion of a spherically symmetric gravitational source. We consider circular orbits of the particle around the direction of…

Some remarks on filtered polynomial interpolation at chebyshev nodes

The present paper concerns filtered de la Vallée Poussin (VP) interpolation at the Chebyshev nodes of the four kinds. This approximation model is interesting for applications because it combines the advantages of the classical Lagrange polynomial approximation (interpolation and polynomial…

Convergence results for an inhomogeneous system arising in various high frequency approximations

Conservative linear equations arise in many areas of application, including continuum mechanics or high-frequency geometrical optics approximations. This kind of equations admits most of the time solutions which are only bounded measures in the space variable known as duality solutions. In this…

Ultrasensitive HCV RNA Quantification in Antiviral Triple Therapy: New Insight on Viral Clearance Dynamics and Treatment Outcome Predictors.

Objectives Identifying the predictive factors of Sustained Virological Response (SVR) represents an important challenge in new interferon-based DAA therapies. Here, we analyzed the kinetics of antiviral response associated with a triple drug regimen, and the association between negative residual…

Two a-posteriori estimates for one-dimensional scalar conservation laws

A two-level metaheuristic for the all colors shortest path problem

Given an undirected weighted graph, in which each vertex is assigned to a color and one of them is identified as source, in the all-colors shortest path problem we look for a minimum cost shortest path that starts from the source and spans all different colors. The problem is known to be NP-Hard…

Immunological network signatures of cancer progression and survival

Conservative second-order gravitational self-force on circular orbits and the effective one-body formalism

We consider Detweiler's redshift variable z for a nonspinning mass m(1) in circular motion (with orbital frequency Omega) around a nonspinning mass m(2). We show how the combination of effective-one-body (EOB) theory with the first law of binary dynamics allows one to derive a simple, exact…

Horizontal solidification of average and low Prandtl fluids in microgravity

Area-preserving curve-shortening flows: from phase separation to image processing

Some known models in phase separation theory (Hele-Shaw, nonlocal mean curvature motion) and their approximations by means of Cahn-Hilliard and nonlocal Allen-Cahn equations are proposed as a tool to generate planar curve-shortening flows without shrinking. This procedure can be seen as a level set…
