Decay of positive waves for $n \times n$ hyperbolic systems of balance laws

Continuum theory of phase separation kinetics for active brownian particles

Active Brownian particles (ABPs), when subject to purely repulsive interactions, are known to undergo activity-induced phase separation broadly resembling an equilibrium (attraction-induced) gas-liquid coexistence. Here we present an accurate continuum theory for the dynamics of phase-separating…

Time-reversal symmetry for systems in a constant external magnetic field

The time-reversal properties of charged systems in a constant external magnetic field are reconsidered in this paper. We show that the evolution equations of the system are invariant under a new symmetry operation that implies a new signature property for time-correlation functions under time…

Effects of vortex filaments on the velocity of tracers and heavy particles in turbulence

The Lagrangian statistics of heavy particles and of fluid tracers transported by a fully developed turbulent flow are investigated by means of high resolution direct numerical simulations. The Lagrangian velocity structure functions are measured in a time range spanning about three decades, from a…

Hybrid Necessary Principle

We consider a hybrid control system and general optimal control problems for this system. We suppose that the switching strategy imposes restrictions on control sets and we provide necessary conditions for an optimal hybrid trajectory, stating a Hybrid Necessary Principle (HNP). Our result…

Evaluating homophily in networks via HONTO (HOmophily Network TOol): a case study of chromosomal interactions in human PPI networks

It has been observed in different kinds of networks, such as social or biological ones, a typical behavior inspired by the general principle 'similarity breeds connections'. These networks are defined as homophilic as nodes belonging to the same class preferentially interact with each other. In…

Hyperbolic-like elastic scattering of spinning particles by a Schwarzschild black hole

The scattering of spinning test particles by a Schwarzschild black hole is studied. The motion is described according to the Mathisson-Papapetrou-Dixon model for extended bodies in a given gravitational background field. The equatorial plane is taken as the orbital plane, the spin vector being…

Maximum occurrence analysis of protein conformations for different distributions of paramagnetic metal ions within flexible two-domains protein

A note on the Recursive Calculation of Dominant Singular Subspaces

Correlation enhanced modularity-based belief propagation method for community detection in networks

Community structure is an important feature of networks, and the correct detection of communities is a fundamental problem in network analysis. Statistical inference has recently been proposed for successful detection, provided the number of communities can be appropriately estimated a priori. In…
