Geometrical wave equation and the cauchy-like theorem for octonions

Riemann surfaces, cohomology and homology groups, Cartan's spinors and triality, octonionic projective geometry, are all well supported by Complex Structures [1], [2], [3], [4]. Furthermore, in Theoretical Physics, mainly in General Relativity, Supersymmetry and Particle Physics, Complex Theory Plays a Key Role [5], [6], [7], [8]. In this context it is expected that generalizations of concepts and main results from the Classical Complex Theory, like conformal and quasiconformal mappings [9], [10] in both quaternionic and octonionic algebra, may be useful for other fields of research, as for graphical computing enviromment [11]. In this Note, following recent works by the autors [12], [13], the Cauchy Theorem will be extended for Octonions in an analogous way that it has recentely been made for quaternions [14]. Finally, will be given an octonionic treatment of the wave equation, which means a wave produced by a hyper-string with initial conditions similar to the one-dimensional case.

Equazioni Differenziali e Teorema di Frobenius

L’obiettivo di questa tesi è quello di presentare, in maniera elementare ma esaustiva, una delle teorie più interessanti nell’ambito dell’analisi matematica: le equazioni differenziali, equazioni che legano una funzione (vista come incognita) alle sue derivate. Nel presentare la teoria delle equazioni differenziali, l’esposizione viene suddivisa in tre capitoli. Il primo ha il fine di presentare la teoria, introducendo le definizioni e i principali risultati, con particolare attenzione al problema di Cauchy, mentre nel secondo l’attenzione si focalizza su come le soluzioni di un sistema differenziale dipendano dai dati iniziali. Nel terzo capitolo la teoria viene generalizzata attraverso il Teorema di Frobenius. Infatti, così come la soluzione di un’equazione differenziale ordinaria permette di ricostruire una curva passante per un dato punto a partire dal suo campo di tangenti, analogamente il Teorema di Frobenius permette di ricostruire una sottovarietà liscia a partire da un sistema di spazi vettoriali tangenti.

On the numerical solution of a Cauchy problem in an elastostatic half-plane with a bounded inclusion

We propose an iterative procedure for the inverse problem of determining the displacement vector on the boundary of a bounded planar inclusion given the displacement and stress fields on an infinite (planar) line-segment. At each iteration step mixed boundary value problems in an elastostatic half-plane containing the bounded inclusion are solved. For efficient numerical implementation of the procedure these mixed problems are reduced to integral equations over the bounded inclusion. Well-posedness and numerical solution of these boundary integral equations are presented, and a proof of convergence of the procedure for the inverse problem to the original solution is given. Numerical investigations are presented both for the direct and inverse problems, and these results show in particular that the displacement vector on the boundary of the inclusion can be found in an accurate and stable way with small computational cost.

An alternating potential based approach for a Cauchy problem for the Laplace equation in a planar domain with a cut

We consider a Cauchy problem for the Laplace equation in a bounded region containing a cut, where the region is formed by removing a sufficiently smooth arc (the cut) from a bounded simply connected domain D. The aim is to reconstruct the solution on the cut from the values of the solution and its normal derivative on the boundary of the domain D. We propose an alternating iterative method which involves solving direct mixed problems for the Laplace operator in the same region. These mixed problems have either a Dirichlet or a Neumann boundary condition imposed on the cut and are solved by a potential approach. Each of these mixed problems is reduced to a system of integral equations of the first kind with logarithmic and hypersingular kernels and at most a square root singularity in the densities at the endpoints of the cut. The full discretization of the direct problems is realized by a trigonometric quadrature method which has super-algebraic convergence. The numerical examples presented illustrate the feasibility of the proposed method.

An iterative method based on boundary integrals for elliptic Cauchy problems in semi-infinite domains

In this study, we investigate the problem of reconstruction of a stationary temperature field from given temperature and heat flux on a part of the boundary of a semi-infinite region containing an inclusion. This situation can be modelled as a Cauchy problem for the Laplace operator and it is an ill-posed problem in the sense of Hadamard. We propose and investigate a Landweber-Fridman type iterative method, which preserve the (stationary) heat operator, for the stable reconstruction of the temperature field on the boundary of the inclusion. In each iteration step, mixed boundary value problems for the Laplace operator are solved in the semi-infinite region. Well-posedness of these problems is investigated and convergence of the procedures is discussed. For the numerical implementation of these mixed problems an efficient boundary integral method is proposed which is based on the indirect variant of the boundary integral approach. Using this approach the mixed problems are reduced to integral equations over the (bounded) boundary of the inclusion. Numerical examples are included showing that stable and accurate reconstructions of the temperature field on the boundary of the inclusion can be obtained also in the case of noisy data. These results are compared with those obtained with the alternating iterative method.

Recovering boundary data in planar heat conduction using boundary integral equation method

We consider a Cauchy problem for the heat equation, where the temperature field is to be reconstructed from the temperature and heat flux given on a part of the boundary of the solution domain. We employ a Landweber type method proposed in [2], where a sequence of mixed well-posed problems are solved at each iteration step to obtain a stable approximation to the original Cauchy problem. We develop an efficient boundary integral equation method for the numerical solution of these mixed problems, based on the method of Rothe. Numerical examples are presented both with exact and noisy data, showing the efficiency and stability of the proposed procedure and approximations.

Numerical solution of parabolic Cauchy problems in planar corner domains

An iterative method for the parabolic Cauchy problem in planar domains having a finite number of corners is implemented based on boundary integral equations. At each iteration, mixed well-posed problems are solved for the same parabolic operator. The presence of corner points renders singularities of the solutions to these mixed problems, and this is handled with the use of weight functions together with, in the numerical implementation, mesh grading near the corners. The mixed problems are reformulated in terms of boundary integrals obtained via discretization of the time-derivative to obtain an elliptic system of partial differential equations. To numerically solve these integral equations a Nyström method with super-algebraic convergence order is employed. Numerical results are presented showing the feasibility of the proposed approach. © 2014 IMACS.

Cauchy Problem for Differential Equation with Caputo Derivative

The paper is devoted to the study of the Cauchy problem for a nonlinear differential equation of complex order with the Caputo fractional derivative. The equivalence of this problem and a nonlinear Volterra integral equation in the space of continuously differentiable functions is established. On the basis of this result, the existence and uniqueness of the solution of the considered Cauchy problem is proved. The approximate-iterative method by Dzjadyk is used to obtain the approximate solution of this problem. Two numerical examples are given.

Teorema del residuo y algunas de sus aplicaciones

Investigación orientada al Análisis Complejo, presentando la similitud entre la serie de Laurent y la serie de Taylor (excepto cuando la función no es holomorfa) estableciendo la relación que existe entre el residuo y la serie de Laurent. El Teorema del Residuo, es aplicado solamente cuando el número de puntos singulares es finito. Asimismo, se aplicó el cálculo de residuos para evaluar integrales de funciones cuyas trayectorias encierran varias singularidades independientes de cualquier tipo de singularidad (polo, removibles o esenciales). En conclusión, se encontró que es imposible aplicar el teorema de Cauchy para caminos cerrados que encierran puntos singulares, por consiguiente, el teorema del residuo da solución a ese tipo de problemas. Finalmente se aplicó el Teorema del Residuo para sumar series que relacionan el número de polos con el número de enteros en el interior de un camino cerrado.

Bit-pattern based integral attack

Integral attacks are well-known to be effective against byte-based block ciphers. In this document, we outline how to launch integral attacks against bit-based block ciphers. This new type of integral attack traces the propagation of the plaintext structure at bit-level by incorporating bit-pattern based notations. The new notation gives the attacker more details about the properties of a structure of cipher blocks. The main difference from ordinary integral attacks is that we look at the pattern the bits in a specific position in the cipher block has through the structure. The bit-pattern based integral attack is applied to Noekeon, Serpent and present reduced up to 5, 6 and 7 rounds, respectively. This includes the first attacks on Noekeon and present using integral cryptanalysis. All attacks manage to recover the full subkey of the final round.
