Pointwise and uniform approximation of the Hilbert transform
The Hilbert transform of a function g, H(g) is an important tool in many mathematical fields. Expecially its numerical
evaluation is often useful in some procedures for searcing solutions of the singular integral equations. In this context an
approximation of (HV^alpha,beta,f;t), |t|1, where f is a continuous function in [-1,1] and v^alpha,beta, alpha,beta>-1 is a Jacobi
weight, is required. In the last decade more then one paper appeared on this subject and among others we recall
[1,2,3,4,5,14,15,20]. The procedure used in these papers can be described as follows.
Diffusion of heavy particles in turbulent flows
Relative dispersion of tracers - i.e. very small, neutrally buoyant particles-, is particularly efficient in incompressible turbulent flows. Due to the non smooth behaviour of velocity differences in the inertial range, the separation distance between two trajectories, R(t)=X1(t)-X2(t) , grows as a power of time superdiffusively, R2(t)t3 , as first observed by L.F. Richardson [1]. This now well established result has no counterpart in the theory of heavy particle suspensions, namely finite-size particles with a mass density much larger that of the carrier fluid.
Multiscale modelling in immunology: a review
One of the greatest challenges in biomedicine is to get a unified view of observations made from the molecular up to the organism scale. Towards this goal, multiscale models have been highly instrumental in contexts such as the cardiovascular field, angiogenesis, neurosciences and tumour biology. More recently, such models are becoming an increasingly important resource to address immunological questions as well.
Weighted uniform convergence of the quadrature method for Cauchy singular integral equations
Collocation and quadrature methods for Cauchy singular integral equations on an interval with variable coefficients are studied. Convergence rates are proved in weighted uniform and uniform norms.
An algorithm for the numerical resolution of a class of singular integral equations
We consider a class of integral equations of Volterra type with constant coefficients containing a logarithmic difference kernel. This equation can be transformed into an equivalent singular equation of Cauchy type which allows us to give the explicit formula for the solution. The numerical method proposed in this paper consists of applying the Lagrange interpolation to the inner Cauchy type singular integral in the latter formula after subtracting the singularity. For the error of this method weighted norm estimates as well as estimates on discrete subsets of knots are given.
