This manuscript relates to the exploiting of the abstract calculus pattern (ACP) for the (numerical) solution of ordinary differential equation (ODEs) systems, which are ubiquitous mathematical formulations of many physical (dynamical) phenomena. We present FOODIE, a software suite aimed to numerically solve ODE problems by means of a clear, concise, and efficient abstract interface.

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)?

In this paper, we study fluctuations and precise deviations of cumulative INAR time series, both in a non-stationary and in a stationary regime. The theoretical results are based on the recent mod- convergence theory as presented in Féray et al., 2016. We apply our findings to the construction of approximate confidence intervals for model parameters and to quantile calculation in a risk management context.

Electrophysiological source imaging (ESI) aims at reconstructing the precise origin of brain activity from measurements of the electric field on the scalp. Across laboratories/research centers/hospitals, ESI is performed with different methods, partly due to the ill-posedness of the underlying mathematical problem. However, it is difficult to find systematic comparisons involving a wide variety of methods. Further, existing comparisons rarely take into account the variability of the results with respect to the input parameters.

We derive bounds on the Kolmogorov distance between the dis- tribution of a random functional of a {0, 1}-valued random sequence and the normal distribution. Our approach, which relies on the general framework of stochastic analysis for discrete-time normal martingales, extends existing results obtained for independent Bernoulli (or Rademacher) sequences. In particular, we obtain Kolmogorov distance bounds for the sum of normalized random sequences without any independence assumption.

Following the methodology of Brasco (Adv Math 394:108029, 2022), we study the long-time behavior for the signed fractional porous medium equation in open bounded sets with smooth boundary. Homogeneous exterior Dirichlet boundary conditions are considered. We prove that if the initial datum has sufficiently small energy, then the solution, once suitably rescaled, converges to a nontrivial constant sign solution of a sublinear fractional Lane-Emden equation.

In this paper we deal with pedestrian modeling, aiming at simulating crowd behavior in normal and emergency scenarios, including highly congested mass events. We are specifically concerned with a new agent-based, continuous-in-space, discrete-in-time, nondifferential model, where pedestrians have finite size and are compressible to a certain extent. The model also takes into account the pushing behavior appearing at extremely high densities. The main novelty is that pedestrians are not assumed to generate any kind of "field" which governs the dynamics of the others in the space around them.
