Fundamentals In Hadronic Atom Theory

By: Andrzej Deloff

Hadronic atoms provide a unique laboratory for studying hadronic interactions essentially at threshold. This text is the first book-form exposition of hadronic atom theory with emphasis on recent developments, both theoretical and experimental. Since the underlying Hamiltonian is a non-self-adjoined operator, the theory goes beyond traditional quantum mechanics and this book covers topics that are often glossed over in standard texts on nuclear physics. The material contained here is intended for the advanced student and researcher in nuclear, atomic or elementary-particle physics. A good knowledge of quantum mechanics and familiarity with nuclear physics are presupposed.

Time-Varying Sliding Modes for Second and Third Order Systems

By: Andrzej Bartoszewicz,Aleksandra Nowacka-Leverton

A principal objective of control engineering is to design control systems which are robust with respect to external disturbances and modelling uncertainty. This objective may be well achieved using the sliding mode technique - which is the main subject of this monograph. More precisely, “Time-Varying Sliding Modes for Second and Third Order Systems” focuses on only one, but very important aspect of the sliding mode system design, i.e. the problem of the sliding plane selection. In this self-contained monograph, the main notions and concepts used in the field of variable structure systems and sliding mode control are presented before in the main part the issue of the switching surface design is discussed. This is done by considering two standard plants, which are very often encountered in the control engineering practice: the second and the third order nonlinear and possibly time-varying systems.

Fractional Dynamics on Networks and Lattices

By: Thomas Michelitsch,Alejandro Perez Riascos,Bernard Collet,Andrzej Nowakowski,Franck Nicolleau

This book analyzes stochastic processes on networks and regular structures such as lattices by employing the Markovian random walk approach. Part 1 is devoted to the study of local and non-local random walks. It shows how non-local random walk strategies can be defined by functions of the Laplacian matrix that maintain the stochasticity of the transition probabilities. A major result is that only two types of functions are admissible: type (i) functions generate asymptotically local walks with the emergence of Brownian motion, whereas type (ii) functions generate asymptotically scale-free non-local “fractional” walks with the emergence of Lévy flights. In Part 2, fractional dynamics and Lévy flight behavior are analyzed thoroughly, and a generalization of Pólya's classical recurrence theorem is developed for fractional walks. The authors analyze primary fractional walk characteristics such as the mean occupation time, the mean first passage time, the fractal scaling of the set of distinct nodes visited, etc. The results show the improved search capacities of fractional dynamics on networks.

Frobenius Algebras

By: Andrzej Skowroński,Kunio Yamagata

This is the first of two volumes which will provide a comprehensive introduction to the modern representation theory of Frobenius algebras. The first part of the book serves as a general introduction to basic results and techniques of the modern representation theory of finite dimensional associative algebras over fields, including the Morita theory of equivalences and dualities and the Auslander-Reiten theory of irreducible morphisms and almost split sequences. The second part is devoted to fundamental classical and recent results concerning the Frobenius algebras and their module categories. Moreover, the prominent classes of Frobenius algebras, the Hecke algebras of Coxeter groups, and the finite dimensional Hopf algebras over fields are exhibited. This volume is self contained and the only prerequisite is a basic knowledge of linear algebra. It includes complete proofs of all results presented and provides a rich supply of examples and exercises. The text is primarily addressed to graduate students starting research in the representation theory of algebras as well as mathematicians working in other fields.

Congestion Control in Data Transmission Networks

Sliding Mode and Other Designs

By: Przemysław Ignaciuk,Andrzej Bartoszewicz

Congestion Control in Data Transmission Networks details the modeling and control of data traffic in communication networks. It shows how various networking phenomena can be represented in a consistent mathematical framework suitable for rigorous formal analysis. The monograph differentiates between fluid-flow continuous-time traffic models, discrete-time processes with constant sampling rates, and sampled-data systems with variable discretization periods. The authors address a number of difficult real-life problems, such as: optimal control of flows with disparate, time-varying delay; the existence of source and channel nonlinearities; the balancing of quality of service and fairness requirements; and the incorporation of variable rate allocation policies. Appropriate control mechanisms which can handle congestion and guarantee high throughput in various traffic scenarios (with different networking phenomena being considered) are proposed. Systematic design procedures using sound control-theoretic foundations are adopted. Since robustness issues are of major concern in providing efficient data-flow regulation in today’s networks, sliding-mode control is selected as the principal technique to be applied in creating the control solutions. The controller derivation is given extensive analytical treatment and is supported with numerous realistic simulations. A comparison with existing solutions is also provided. The concepts applied are discussed in a number of illustrative examples, and supported by many figures, tables, and graphs walking the reader through the ideas and introducing their relevance in real networks. Academic researchers and graduate students working in computer networks and telecommunications and in control (especially time-delay systems and discrete-time optimal and sliding-mode control) will find this text a valuable assistance in ensuring smooth data-flow within communications networks.

Nonlinear Optimization

By: Andrzej P. Ruszczyński

Optimization is one of the most important areas of modern applied mathematics, with applications in fields from engineering and economics to finance, statistics, management science, and medicine. While many books have addressed its various aspects, Nonlinear Optimization is the first comprehensive treatment that will allow graduate students and researchers to understand its modern ideas, principles, and methods within a reasonable time, but without sacrificing mathematical precision. Andrzej Ruszczynski, a leading expert in the optimization of nonlinear stochastic systems, integrates the theory and the methods of nonlinear optimization in a unified, clear, and mathematically rigorous fashion, with detailed and easy-to-follow proofs illustrated by numerous examples and figures. The book covers convex analysis, the theory of optimality conditions, duality theory, and numerical methods for solving unconstrained and constrained optimization problems. It addresses not only classical material but also modern topics such as optimality conditions and numerical methods for problems involving nondifferentiable functions, semidefinite programming, metric regularity and stability theory of set-constrained systems, and sensitivity analysis of optimization problems. Based on a decade's worth of notes the author compiled in successfully teaching the subject, this book will help readers to understand the mathematical foundations of the modern theory and methods of nonlinear optimization and to analyze new problems, develop optimality theory for them, and choose or construct numerical solution methods. It is a must for anyone seriously interested in optimization.

Boundary Values And Convolution In Ultradistribution Spaces

By: Stevan Pilipovic,Richard D Carmichael,Andrzej Kaminski

This book provides the construction and characterization of important ultradistribution spaces and studies properties and calculations of ultradistributions such as boundedness and convolution. Integral transforms of ultradistributions are constructed and analyzed. The general theory of the representation of ultradistributions as boundary values of analytic functions is obtained and the recovery of the analytic functions as Cauchy, Fourier-Laplace, and Poisson integrals associated with the boundary value is proved.Ultradistributions are useful in applications in quantum field theory, partial differential equations, convolution equations, harmonic analysis, pseudo-differential theory, time-frequency analysis, and other areas of analysis. Thus this book is of interest to users of ultradistributions in applications as well as to research mathematicians in areas of analysis.

Diagnostic Measurements In Lsi/vlsi Integrated Circuits Production

By: Andrzej Jakubowski,Wieslaw Marciniak,Henryk M Przewlocki

This book describes means in improving the technology of LSI/VLSI ICs production. It does so by concentrating on improvements of manufacturing yield and quality of the products by detecting weak points which should be eliminated on the way up the learning curve. The book presents a systematic approach to the problem, covering primarily methods based on the use of test patterns measurements, in both mass production and in research and development activities. The main groups of defects found in IC chips and ways to detect them using test structures are discussed in detail.
