Mechanical fluctuations suppress the threshold of soft-glassy solids : the secular drift scenario

Adeline Pons, Axelle Amon, Thierry Darnige +2

We propose a dynamical mechanism leading to the fluidization of soft-glassy amorphous mate-rial driven below the yield-stress by external mechanical fluctuations. The model is base…

On the rate of convergence for the mean field approximation of many-body quantum dynamics

Zied Ammari, Marco Falconi, Boris Pawilowski

We consider the time evolution of quantum states by many-body Schrödinger dynamics and study the rate of convergence of their reduced density matrices in the mean field limit. If t…

The shadow of a Thurston geodesic to the curve graph

Anna Lenzhen, Kasra Rafi, Jing Tao

We study the geometry of the Thurston metric on Teichmuller space by examining its geodesics and comparing them to Teichmuller geodesics. We show that, similar to a Teichmuller geo…

Moment bounds and concentration inequalities for slowly mixing dynamical systems

Sébastien Gouëzel, Ian Melbourne

We obtain optimal moment bounds for Birkhoff sums, and optimal concentration inequalities, for a large class of slowly mixing dynamical systems, including those that admit anomalou…

Efficient Legendre moment computation for grey level images

Guanyu Yang, Huazhong Shu, Christine Toumoulin +2

Legendre orthogonal moments have been widely used in the field of image analysis. Because their computation by a direct method is very time expensive, recent efforts have been devo…

Image reconstruction from limited range projections using orthogonal moments

Huazhong Shu, Jian Zhou, Guo-Niu Han +2

A set of orthonormal polynomials is proposed for image reconstruction from projection data. The relationship between the projection moments and image moments is discussed in detail…

Wigner measures approach to the classical limit of the Nelson model: Convergence of dynamics and ground state energy

Zied Ammari, Marco Falconi

We consider the classical limit of the Nelson model, a system of stable nucleons interacting with a meson field. We prove convergence of the quantum dynamics towards the evolution…
