Stochastic Lagrangian Adaptation

Format: Paperback 77 pages, height x width: 235x155 mm, II, 59 p.,
Series: SpringerBriefs in Mathematics
Pub. Date: 20-Dec-2024
ISBN-13: 9783031737572

Description

This book introduces a cutting-edge continuous time stochastic linear quadratic (LQ) adaptive control algorithm for fully observed linear stochastic systems with unknown parameters. The adaptive estimation algorithm is engineered to drive the maximum likelihood estimate into the set of parameters representing the true closed-loop dynamics. By incorporating a performance monitoring feature, this approach ensures that the estimate converges to the true system parameters. Concurrently, it delivers optimal long-term LQ closed-loop performance. This groundbreaking work offers a significant advancement in the field of stochastic control systems.

Description

This book addresses a wide range of recent methodological aspects, applications and best practices of statistics production. It comprises a selection of peer-reviewed contributions of methodological and applied interest presented at the 4th Conference of European Statistics Stakeholders, CESS 2022, held in Rome, Italy, on October 20-21, 2022. The first part discusses statistical methods with applications to environmental risk assessment, sentinels data, surveillance systems during the Covid-19 pandemic, healthcare risk management, the analysis of regional or structural changes of scale, household distributional accounts, regional rental prices on municipalities, the network topology of the Euro area interbank market, tourism statistics and big data, statistical literacy, and Sustainable Development Goal composite indicators for EU countries. The second part focuses on statistical methodologies for complex data analysis, namely the optimal number of clusters to rank a model-based index, clustering methods for asymmetric data using spectral approaches, a family of parsimonious matrix-variate mixture models for heavy-tailed data, the importance of robust second-stage regressions for financial data, and on perturbation methods.

In view of the overarching theme The European Data Ecosystem for the Statistical Information of the Digital Age and the importance of statistical data for monitoring the progress of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, the CESS 2022 meeting provided a forum for discussion on methodologies, results, challenges and best practices among methodologists, producers, and users of European Statistics from academia, the national statistical offices and the institutions of the European Union.

Prandtl Equations and Related Boundary Layer Equations

Format: Hardback, 373 pages, height x width: 235x155 mm, VIII, 265 p.,
Pub. Date: 11-Jan-2025
ISBN-13: 9789819745647

Description

This book aims to present some recent results on Prandtl equations and MHD boundary layer equations.

This book is essentially divided into two parts. Chapter 1 as the first part systematically surveys the results till 2020 on Prandtl equations and MHD boundary layer equations. Chapter 2 to 6 are the main part of the book, which presents the local and the global well-posedness of solutions to the Prandtl equations and MHD boundary layer equations. In detail, Chapter 2 is concerned with global well-posedness of solutions to the 2D Prandtl-Hartmann equations in an analytic framework. Chapter 3 investigates the local existence of solutions to the 2D Prandtl equations in a weighted Sobolev space. Chapter 4 studies the local well-posedness of solutions to the 2D mixed Prandtl equations in a Sobolev space without monotonicity and lower bound. Chapter 5 is concerned with global existence of solutions to the 2D magnetic Prandtl equations in the Prandtl-Hartmann regime. Chapter 6 proves the local existence of solutions to the 3D Prandtl equations with a special structure.

Mathematicians and physicists who are interested in fluid dynamics will find this book helpful.
