We compute the metric fluctuations induced by a turbulent energy-matter tensor within the first order
post-Minkowskian approximation. It is found that the turbulent energy cascade can in principle interfere
with the process of black hole formation, leading to a potentially strong coupling between… |

In this paper we propose a method to couple two or more explicit numerical schemes approximating the same time-dependent PDE, aiming at creating a new scheme which inherits advantages of the original ones. We consider both advection equations and nonlinear conservation laws. By coupling a… |

The statistics of Lagrangian particles transported by a three-dimensional fully developed turbulent flow is investigated by means of high-resolution direct numerical simulations. The analysis of single trajectories reveals the existence of strong trapping events vortices at the Kolmogorov scale… |

We describe the basic properties and consequences of introducing active stresses, with principal direction along the local director, in cholesteric liquid crystals. The helical ground state is found to be linearly unstable to extensile stresses, without threshold in the limit of infinite system… |

We provide a Clark-Ocone formula for square-integrable functionals of a general temporal point process satisfying only a mild moment condition, generalizing known results on the Poisson space. Some classical applications are given, namely a deviation bound and the construction of a hedging… |

We analyze stability of equilibria for a delayed SIR epidemic model, in which population growth is subject to logistic growth in absence of disease, with a nonlinear incidence rate satisfying suitable monotonicity conditions. The model admits a unique endemic equilibrium if and only if the basic… |

This paper presents a generalization of Kokaram's model for scratch lines detection on digital film materials. It is based on the assumption that scratch is not purely additive on a given image but shows also a destroying effect. This result allows us to design a more efficacious scratch detector… |

Motivation: DNA methylation is a stable epigenetic mark with major implications in both physiological (development, aging) and pathological conditions (cancers and numerous diseases). Recent research involving methylation focuses on the development of molecular age estimation methods based on DNA… |

We study spreading dynamics of a reaction diffusion process in a special class of heterogeneous graphs with Poissonian degree distribution and composed of both local and long range links. The behavior of the spreading dynamics on such networks are investigated by relating them to the topological… |
