Mentoring Undergraduate Research In Mathematical Modeling, Glenn Ledder
Department of Mathematics: Faculty Publications
In writing about undergraduate research in mathematical modeling, I draw on my 31 years as a mathematics professor at the University of Nebraska–Lincoln, where I mentored students in honors’ theses, REU groups, and research done in a classroom setting, as well as my prior experience. I share my views on the differences between research at the undergraduate and professional levels, offer advice for undergraduate mentoring, provide suggestions for a variety of ways that students can disseminate their research, offer some thoughts on mathematical modeling and how to explain it to undergraduates, and discuss the challenges involved in broadening research participation …
Bloch Spectra For High Contrast Elastic Media,

Louisiana State University and Agricultural and Mechanical College
Bloch Spectra For High Contrast Elastic Media, Jayasinghage Ruchira Nirmali Perera
LSU Doctoral Dissertations
The primary goal of this dissertation is to develop analytic representation formulas and power series to describe the band structure inside periodic elastic crystals made from high contrast inclusions. We use source free modes associated with structural spectra to represent the solution operator of the Lame' system inside phononic crystals. Then we obtain convergent power series for the Bloch wave spectrum using the representation formulas. An explicit bound on the convergence radius is given through the structural spectra of the inclusion array and the Dirichlet spectra of the inclusions. Sufficient conditions for the separation of spectral branches of the dispersion …
Analytic Solution Of 1d Diffusion-Convection Equation With Varying Boundary Conditions,

Portland State University
Analytic Solution Of 1d Diffusion-Convection Equation With Varying Boundary Conditions, Małgorzata B. Glinowiecka-Cox
University Honors Theses
A diffusion-convection equation is a partial differential equation featuring two important physical processes. In this paper, we establish the theory of solving a 1D diffusion-convection equation, subject to homogeneous Dirichlet, Robin, or Neumann boundary conditions and a general initial condition. Firstly, we transform the diffusion-convection equation into a pure diffusion equation. Secondly, using a separation of variables technique, we obtain a general solution formula for each boundary type case, subject to transformed boundary and initial conditions. While eigenvalues in the cases of Dirichlet and Neumann boundary conditions can be constructed easily, the Robin boundary condition necessitates solving a transcendental algebraic …

Differential Operators On Classical Invariant Rings Do Not Lift Modulo P, Jack Jeffries, Anurag K. Singh
Department of Mathematics: Faculty Publications
Levasseur and Stafford described the rings of differential operators on various classical invariant rings of characteristic zero; in each of the cases that they considered, the differential operators form a simple ring. Towards an attack on the simplicity of rings of differential operators on invariant rings of linearly reductive groups over the complex numbers, Smith and Van den Bergh asked if differential operators on the corresponding rings of positive prime characteristic lift to characteristic zero differential operators. We prove that, in general, this is not the case for determinantal hypersurfaces, as well as for Pfaffian and symmetric determinantal hypersurfaces. We …
Analyzing Domain Of Convergence For Broyden’S Method,

DePaul University
Analyzing Domain Of Convergence For Broyden’S Method, Michael Bonthron
College of Science and Health Theses and Dissertations
Broyden’s method is a quasi-Newton iterative method used to find roots of non-linear systems of equations. Research has shown and improved the rate of convergence for special cases and specific applications of the method. However, there is limited literature regarding the well-posedness of the method. In practice, a numerical method must reliably converge to the appropriate root. This paper will discuss the domain of attraction for the roots of a system found by using Broyden’s method. A method of approximating the radius of convergence of a root will be described which considers the largest disk centered at the root such …

Opinion Profile Dynamics With Uniform Bounded Confidence: Analysis & Simulations, Jason Echevarria
College of Science and Health Theses and Dissertations
An opinion profile can describe a set of individuals, groups or entities that form an opinion over a topic. Given a number of agents, a time evolving opinion denoted by a vector can be described over time using the linear mode where is a time variable and the matrix (which might depend on time and the current profile) contains the weights that affect the dynamics of profile . With varying conditions over time, these profiles can form groups, polarize, fragment, or reach consensus. In this work, we investigate the uniform bounded confidence model: an agent adjusts their opinion over time …

Sparse Spectral-Tau Method For The Two-Dimensional Helmholtz Problem Posed On A Rectangular Domain,

University of New Mexico
Sparse Spectral-Tau Method For The Two-Dimensional Helmholtz Problem Posed On A Rectangular Domain, Gabriella M. Dalton
Mathematics & Statistics ETDs
Within recent decades, spectral methods have become an important technique in numerical computing for solving partial differential equations. This is due to their superior accuracy when compared to finite difference and finite element methods. For such spectral approximations, the convergence rate is solely dependent on the smoothness of the solution yielding the potential to achieve spectral accuracy. We present an iterative approach for solving the two-dimensional Helmholtz problem posed on a rectangular domain subject to Dirichlet boundary conditions that is well-conditioned, low in memory, and of sub-quadratic complexity. The proposed approach spectrally approximates the partial differential equation by means of …

(R1892) On The Asymptotic Stability Of A Neutral System With Nonlinear Perturbations And Constant Delay, Melek Gözen
Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)
In this paper, we consider a nonlinear perturbed system of neutral delay integro-differential equations (NDIDEs). We prove two new theorems, Theorems 1 and 2, such that these theorems include sufficient conditions and are related to asymptotically stability of zero solution of the perturbed system of NDIDEs. The technique of the proofs depend upon the definitions of two new and more suitable Lyapunov- Krasovskiĭ functionals (LKFs). When we compared the results of this paper with those are found the literature related , our results improve and extend some classical results, and do new contributions to the topic of NDIDEs and literature.

(R1517) Asymptotical Stability Of Riemann-Liouville Fractional Neutral Systems With Multiple Time-Varying Delays, Erdal Korkmaz, Abdulhamit Ozdemir
Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)
In this manuscript, we investigate the asymptotical stability of solutions of Riemann-Liouville fractional neutral systems associated to multiple time-varying delays. Then, we use the linear matrix inequality (LMI) and the Lyapunov-Krasovskii method to obtain sufficient conditions for the asymptotical stability of solutions of the system when the given delays are time dependent and one of them is unbounded. Finally, we present some examples to indicate the efficacy of the consequences obtained.
Analysis Of A Quantum Attack On The Blum-Micali Pseudorandom Number Generator,

Analysis Of A Quantum Attack On The Blum-Micali Pseudorandom Number Generator, Tingfei Feng
Mathematical Sciences Technical Reports (MSTR)
In 2012, Guedes, Assis, and Lula proposed a quantum attack on a pseudorandom number generator named the Blum-Micali Pseudorandom number generator. They claimed that the quantum attack can outperform classical attacks super-polynomially. However, this paper shows that the quantum attack cannot get the correct seed and provides another corrected algorithm that is in exponential time but still faster than the classical attack. Since the original classical attacks are in exponential time, the Blum-Micali pseudorandom number generator would be still quantum resistant.

(R1521) On Weighted Lacunary Interpolation, Swarnima Bahadur, Sariya Bano
Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)
In this paper, we considered the non-uniformly distributed zeros on the unit circle, which are obtained by projecting vertically the zeros of the derivative of Legendre polynomial together with x=1 and x=-1 onto the unit circle. We prescribed the function on the above said nodes, while its second derivative at all nodes except at x=1 and x=-1 with suitable weight function and obtained the existence, explicit forms and establish a convergence theorem for such interpolatory polynomial. We call such interpolation as weighted Lacunary interpolation on the unit circle.

(R1889) Analysis Of Resonant Curve In The Earth-Moon System Under The Effect Of Resistive Force And Earth’S Equatorial Ellipticity, Sushil Yadav, Mukesh Kumar, Rajiv Aggarwal
Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)
In the present paper, we have determined the equations of motion of the Moon in spherical coordinate system using the gravitational potential of Earth. Using perturbation, equations of motion are reduced to a second order differential equation. From the solution, two types of resonance are observed: (i) due to the frequencies–rate of change of Earth’s equatorial ellipticity parameter and Earth’s rotation rate, and (ii) due to the frequencies–angular velocity of the bary-center around the sun and Earth’s rotation rate. Resonant curves are drawn where oscillatory amplitude becomes infinitely large at the resonant points. The effect of Earth’s equatorial ellipticity parameter …

(R1897) Further Results On The Admissibility Of Singular Systems With Delays, Abdullah Yiğit, Cemil Tunç
Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)
Admissibility problem for a kind of singular systems with delays is studied in this article. Firstly, given the singular system with delays is transformed into a neutral system with delays. Secondly, a new sufficient criterion is obtained on the stability of the new neutral system by aid of Wirtinger-based integral inequality, linear matrix inequality (LMI) method and meaningful Lyapunov-Krasovskii functionals (LKFs). This criterion is valid for both systems. At the end, Two numerical examples are given to illustrate the applicability of the obtained results using MATLAB-Simulink software. By this article, we extend and improve some results of the past literature.

(R1507) Mathematical Modeling And Analysis Of Seqiahr Model: Impact Of Quarantine And Isolation On Covid-19, Manoj Kumar Singh, . Anjali
Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)
At the moment in time, an outbreak of COVID-19 is transmitting on from human to human. Different parts have different quality of life (e.g., India compared to Russia), which implies the impact varies in each part of the world. Although clinical vaccines are available to cure, the question is how to minimize the spread without considering the vaccine. In this paper, via a mathematical model, the transmission dynamics of novel coronavirus with quarantine and isolation facilities have been proposed. The examination of the proposed model is set in motion with the boundedness and positivity of the solution, sole disease-free equilibrium, …

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)
Associating the influences of viscosity and oblateness in the finite straight segment model of the Robe’s problem, the linear stability of the collinear and non-collinear equilibrium points for a small solid sphere m3 of density \rho3 are analyzed. This small solid sphere is moving inside the first primary m1 whose hydrostatic equilibrium figure is an oblate spheroid and it consists of an incompressible homogeneous fluid of density \rho1. The second primary m2 is a finite straight segment of length 2l. The existence of the equilibrium points is discussed after deriving the pertinent …

(R1511) Numerical Solution Of Differential Difference Equations Having Boundary Layers At Both The Ends, Raghvendra Pratap Singh, Y. N. Reddy
Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)
In this paper, numerical solution of differential-difference equation having boundary layers at both ends is discussed. Using Taylor’s series, the given second order differential-difference equation is replaced by an asymptotically equivalent first order differential equation and solved by suitable choice of integrating factor and finite differences. The numerical results for several test examples are presented to demonstrate the applicability of the method.
A Bidirectional Formulation For Walk On Spheres,

Dartmouth College
A Bidirectional Formulation For Walk On Spheres, Yang Qi
Dartmouth College Master’s Theses
Poisson’s equations and Laplace’s equations are important linear partial differential equations (PDEs)
widely used in many applications. Conventional methods for solving PDEs numerically often need to
discretize the space first, making them less efficient for complex shapes. The random walk on spheres
method (WoS) is a grid-free Monte-Carlo method for solving PDEs that does not need to discrete the
space. We draw analogies between WoS and classical rendering algorithms, and find that the WoS
algorithm is conceptually identical to forward path tracing.
We show that solving the Poisson’s equation is equivalent to solving the Green’s function for every
pair of …

Analysis Of Covid-19 And Vaccine Administration In Mississippi, Megan Sickinger
Honors Theses
In this work, we develop a simple mathematical model to observe the spread of COVID-19 and vaccine administration in Mississippi. Based on the well-known Kermack-McKendrick Susceptible-Infected-Removed epidemiological model, the ASIRD−V model has eight ordinary differential equations that split infected populations and recovered populations into vaccinated and unvaccinated populations. After determining that the system is reliable for real-world applications, we investigate and determine the stability and equilibrium points of this system. The system is found to be disease-free when R0 < 1 and endemic when R0 > 1. We use MATLAB to numerically solve the system and optimize the model’s parameters over four short periods, two with the …
