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… |

We give a Sobolev inequality with the weight K(x) belonging to the class A_2\cap G_n for the
function |u|^t and the weight K(x)^{-1} for |u|^2. The constant in the relevant inequality is
seen to depend on the G_n and A_2 constants of the weight. |

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… |

A system of nonlinear hyperbolic partial differential equations is derived using mixture theory to model the formation of biofilms. In contrast with most of the existing models, our equations have a finite speed of propagation, without using artificial free boundary conditions. Adapted numerical… |

Questo lavoro si occupa di graph coloring. In particolare viene proposto un algoritmo di branch and bound troncato in grado di calcolare buoni lower bound sul numero cromatico di un grafo e spesso fornisce la soluzione ottima. |

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… |

In an attempt to study the accuracy and utility of 'coarse grained' models for methane-clathrate systems, molecular-dynamics simulations were run for three different potential models. One was fully atomistic of TIP4P water and fully atomistic methane, the next model was atomistic SPC water and… |
