Amplitude equations for weakly nonlinear two-scale perturbations of free hydromagnetic convective regimes in a rotating layer

V. Zheligovsky

Weakly non-linear stability of regimes of free hydromagnetic thermal convection in a rotating horizontal layer with free electrically conducting boundaries is considered in the Bou…

Characterization of the tail of the distribution of earthquake magnitudes by combining the GEV and GPD descriptions of Extreme Value Theory

V. F. Pisarenko, A. Sornette, D. Sornette +1

We present a generic and powerful approach to study the statistics of extreme phenomena (meteorology, finance, biology...) that we apply to the statistical estimation of the tail o…

Earthquake Prediction: Probabilistic Aspect

G. Molchan, V. Keilis-Borok

A theoretical analysis of the earthquake prediction problem in space-time is presented. We find an explicit structure of the optimal strategy and its relation to the generalized er…
