In this article we provide a stack-theoretic framework to study the universal tropical Jacobian over the moduli space of tropical curves. We develop two approaches to the process of tropicalization of the universal compactified Jacobian over the moduli space of curves -- one from a logarithmic and the other from a non-Archimedean analytic point of view. The central result from both points of view is that the tropicalization of the universal compactified Jacobian is the universal tropical Jacobian and that the tropicalization maps in each of the two contexts are compatible with the tautological morphisms. In a sequel we will use the techniques developed here to provide explicit polyhedral models for the logarithmic Picard variety.
Mathematical arguments are central components of mathematics and play a role in certain types of modelling of potential mathematical giftedness. However, particular characteristics of arguments are interpreted differently in the context of mathematical giftedness. Some models of giftedness see no connection, whereas other models consider the formulation of complete and plausible arguments as a partial aspect of giftedness. Furthermore, longitudinal changes in argumentation characteristics remain open. This leads to the research focus of this article, which is to identify and describe the changes of argumentation products in potentially mathematically gifted children over a longer period. For this purpose, the argumentation products of children from third to sixth grade are collected throughout a longitudinal study and examined with respect to the use of examples and generalizations. The analysis of all products results in six different types of changes in the characteristics of the argumentation products identified over the survey period and case studies are used to illustrate student use of examples and generalizations of these types. This not only reveals the general importance of the use of examples in arguments. For one type, an increase in generalized arguments can be observed over the survey period. The article will conclude with a discussion of the role of argument characteristics in describing potential mathematical giftedness.
In this short note, we investigate simultaneous recovery inverse problems for semilinear elliptic equations with partial data. The main technique is based on higher order linearization and monotonicity approaches. With these methods at hand, we can determine the diffusion, cavity and coefficients simultaneously by knowing the corresponding localized Dirichlet-Neumann operators.
Using the notion of a root datum of a reductive group G we propose a tropical analogue of a principal G-bundle on a metric graph. We focus on the case G=GLn, i.e. the case of vector bundles. Here we give a characterization of vector bundles in terms of multidivisors and use this description to prove analogues of the Weil--Riemann--Roch theorem and the Narasimhan--Seshadri correspondence. We proceed by studying the process of tropicalization. In particular, we show that the non-Archimedean skeleton of the moduli space of semistable vector bundles on a Tate curve is isomorphic to a certain component of the moduli space of semistable tropical vector bundles on its dual metric graph.
Although everyone is familiar with using algorithms on a daily basis, formulating, understanding and analysing them rigorously has been (and will remain) a challenging task for decades. Therefore, one way of making steps towards their understanding is the formulation of models that are portraying reality, but also remain easy to analyse. In this thesis we take a step towards this way by analyzing one particular problem, the so-called group testing problem. R. Dorfman introduced the problem in 1943. We assume a large population and in this population we find a infected group of individuals. Instead of testing everybody individually, we can test group (for instance by mixing blood samples). In this thesis we look for the minimum number of tests needed such that we can say something meaningful about the infection status. Furthermore we assume various versions of this problem to analyze at what point and why this problem is hard, easy or impossible to solve.
We study the asymptotics of Dirichlet eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the fractional Laplacian (−Δ)s in bounded open Lipschitz sets in the small order limit s→0+. While it is easy to see that all eigenvalues converge to 1 as s→0+, we show that the first order correction in these asymptotics is given by the eigenvalues of the logarithmic Laplacian operator, i.e., the singular integral operator with Fourier symbol 2log|ξ|. By this we generalize a result of Chen and the third author which was restricted to the principal eigenvalue. Moreover, we show that L2-normalized Dirichlet eigenfunctions of (−Δ)s corresponding to the k-th eigenvalue are uniformly bounded and converge to the set of L2-normalized eigenfunctions of the logarithmic Laplacian. In order to derive these spectral asymptotics, we establish new uniform regularity and boundary decay estimates for Dirichlet eigenfunctions for the fractional Laplacian. As a byproduct, we also obtain corresponding regularity properties of eigenfunctions of the logarithmic Laplacian.
In 1999, Merino and Welsh conjectured that evaluations of the Tutte polynomial of a graph satisfy an inequality. In this short article, we show that the conjecture generalized to matroids holds for the large class of all split matroids by exploiting the structure of their lattice of cyclic flats. This class of matroids strictly contains all paving and copaving matroids.
We deal with the shape reconstruction of inclusions in elastic bodies. For solving this inverse problem in practice, data fitting functionals are used. Those work better than the rigorous monotonicity methods from Eberle and Harrach (Inverse Probl 37(4):045006, 2021), but have no rigorously proven convergence theory. Therefore we show how the monotonicity methods can be converted into a regularization method for a data-fitting functional without losing the convergence properties of the monotonicity methods. This is a great advantage and a significant improvement over standard regularization techniques. In more detail, we introduce constraints on the minimization problem of the residual based on the monotonicity methods and prove the existence and uniqueness of a minimizer as well as the convergence of the method for noisy data. In addition, we compare numerical reconstructions of inclusions based on the monotonicity-based regularization with a standard approach (one-step linearization with Tikhonov-like regularization), which also shows the robustness of our method regarding noise in practice.
We deal with the reconstruction of inclusions in elastic bodies based on monotonicity methods and construct conditions under which a resolution for a given partition can be achieved. These conditions take into account the background error as well as the measurement noise. As a main result, this shows us that the resolution guarantees depend heavily on the Lamé parameter μ and only marginally on λ.
The purpose of the paper is to initiate the development of the theory of Newton Okounkov bodies of curve classes. Our denition is based on making a fundamental property of NewtonOkounkov bodies hold also in the curve case: the volume of the NewtonOkounkov body of a curve is a volume-type function of the original curve. This construction allows us to conjecture a new relation between NewtonOkounkov bodies, we prove it in certain cases.
