Cost Functions in Economic Complexity

Alessandro Bellina, Paolo Buttà, Vito D. P. Servedio

Economic complexity algorithms aim to uncover the hidden capabilities that drive economic systems. Here, we present a fundamental reinterpretation of two of these algorithms, the E…

From particle systems to the BGK equation

Paolo Buttà, Mario Pulvirenti, Sergio Simonella

In [Phys. Rev. 94 (1954), 511-525], P.L. Bhatnagar, E.P. Gross and M. Krook introduced a kinetic equation (the BGK equation), effective in physical situations where the Knudsen num…

Stability of the stationary solutions of the Allen-Cahn equation with non-constant stiffness

Paolo Buttà, Emilio N. M. Cirillo, Giulio Sciarra

We study the solutions of a generalized Allen-Cahn equation deduced from a Landau energy functional, endowed with a non-constant higher order stiffness. We assume the stiffness to…
