Preservation of the angle of reflection when an internal gravity wave hits a sloping boundary generates a focusing mechanism if the angle between the direction of propagation of the incident wave and the horizontal is close to the slope inclination (near-critical reflection). This paper provides an explicit description of the leading approximation of the unique Leray solution to the near-critical reflection of internal waves from a slope in the form of a beam wave.

We prove the strong ill-posedness of the two-dimensional Boussinesq system in vorticity form in L8pR2q without boundary, building upon the method that Shikh Khalil & Elgindi arXiv:2207.04556v1 developed for scalar equations. We provide examples of initial data with vorticity and density gradient of small L8pR2q size, for which the horizontal density gradient has a strong L8pR2q-norm inflation in infinitesimal time, while the vorticity and the vertical density gradient remain bounded.

This article is concerned with the rigorous justification of the hydrostatic limit for continuously stratified incompressible fluids under the influence of gravity. The main peculiarity of this work with respect to previous studies is that no (regularizing) viscosity contribution is added to the fluid-dynamics equations and only diffusivity effects are included.

We prove the nonlinear asymptotic stability of stably stratified solutions to the Incompressible Porous Media equation (IPM) for initial perturbations in ?H1- (R2) ? ?H s(R2) with s > 3 and for any 0 < < 1. Such result improves the existing literature, where the asymptotic stability is proved for initial perturbations belonging at least to H20(R2). More precisely, the aim of the article is threefold. First, we provide a simplified and improved proof of global-in-time well-posedness of the Boussinesq equations with strongly damped vorticity in H1- (R2)?

We study the consistency and the oracle properties of the adaptive Lasso estimator for the coefficients of a linear AR(p) time series with a strictly stationary white noise (not necessarily described by i.i.d. r.v.'s). We apply the results to INAR(p) time series and to the non-parametric inference of the fertility function of a Hawkes point process. We present some numerical simulations to emphasize the advantages of the proposed procedure with respect to more classical ones and finally we apply it to a set of epidemiological data

A new technique for nonparametric regression of multichannel signals is presented. The technique is based on the use of the Rational-Dilation Wavelet Transform (RADWT), equipped with a tunable Q-factor able to provide sparse representations of functions with different oscillations persistence. In particular, two different frames are obtained by two RADWT with different Q-factors that give sparse representations of functions with low and high resonance.

In recent years there has been a growing interest in frame based de-noising procedures. The advantage of frames with respect to classical orthonor- mal bases (e.g. wavelet, Fourier, polynomial) is that they can furnish an efficient representation of a more broad class of signals. For example, signals which have fast oscillating behavior as sonar, radar, EEG, stock market, audio and speech are much more well represented by a frame (with similar oscillating characteristic) than by a classical wavelet basis, although the frame representation for such kind of signals can be not properly sparse.
