Numerical issues in computing the antitriangular factorization of symmetric indefinite matrices |
An algorithm for computing the antitriangular factorization of symmetric matrices, relying only on orthogonal transformations, was recently proposed. The computed antitriangular form straightforwardly reveals the inertia of the matrix. A block version of the latter algorithm was described in a… | |
Error estimates for polynomial Krylov approximations to matrix functions |
In this paper we are interested in the polynomial Krylov approximations for the computation of phi(A)upsilon, where A is a square matrix, v represents a given vector, and. is a suitable function which can be employed in modern integrators for differential problems. Our aim consists of proposing and… | |
Maximizing lifetime and handling reliability in wireless sensor networks |
In this article, we face the problem of ensuring reliability of a wireless sensor network which is monitoring a given set of points of interest while maximizing its lifetime (i.e., the amount of time over which the monitoring activity can be performed). The two objectives are contrasting. Indeed,… | |
A mathematical model of skeletal muscle disease and immune response in the mdx mouse |
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a genetic disease that results in the death of affected boys by early adulthood. The genetic defect responsible for DMD has been known for over 25 years, yet at present there is neither cure nor effective treatment for DMD. During early disease onset, the mdx… | |
On the micro-to-macro limit for first-order traffic flow models on networks |
Connections between microscopic follow-the-leader and macroscopic fluid-dynamics traffic flow models are already well understood in the case of vehicles moving on a single road. Analogous connections in the case of road networks are instead lacking. This is probably due to the fact that macroscopic… | |

In-silico evaluation of adenoviral COVID-19 vaccination protocols: Assessment of immunological memory up to 6 months after the third dose |
Background: The immune response to adenoviral COVID-19 vaccines is affected by the interval between doses. The optimal interval is unknown. Aim: We aim to explore in-silico the effect of the interval between vaccine administrations on immunogenicity and to analyze the contribution of pre-existing… | |
Maps of PWV Temporal Changes by SAR Interferometry: A Study on the Properties of Atmosphere's Temperature Profiles |
Recently, synthetic aperture radar interferometry (InSAR) has been recognized as a promising tool to generate high-resolution maps of atmospherical precipitable water vapor temporal changes (Delta PWV) from the propagation delay of radar signal in atmosphere. The relationship between Delta PWV and… | |
1/c expansion of nonminimally coupled curvature-matter gravity models and constraints from planetary precession |
The effects of a nonminimally coupled curvature-matter model of gravity on a perturbed Minkowski metric are presented. The action functional of the model involves two functions $f^1(R)$ and $f^2(R)$ of the Ricci scalar curvature $R$. This work expands upon previous results, extending the framework… | |
Local Sorting for Adaptive Signal Regularization |
This letter investigates the possibility of removing noise in correspondence to jump discontinuities using the sorted copy of the signal. It will be proved that sorting makes noise predictable so that it can be reproduced and subtracted from the sorted noisy signal. It will be also shown that the… |
