Drosophila melanogaster recently spread from its tropical origin in Africa and became a cosmopolitan species that has adapted to a wide range of different thermal environments, including temperate climates. An important limiting factor of temperate climates has probably...

This note studies the accuracy of Isogeometric Analysis (IGA) applied in the simulation of incompressible flows around a cylinder in two and three dimensions. Quantities of interest, like the drag coefficient, the lift coefficient, and the difference of the pressure bet...

Long term average or 'ergodic' optimal control problems on a compact manifold are considered. The problems exhibit a special structure which is typical of control problems related to large deviations theory: Control is exerted in all directions and the control costs are...

In this paper we study the well-posedness of a simple model of boundary layer for rotating fluids between two concentric spheres near the equator. We show that this model can be seen as a degenerate elliptic equation , for which we prove an existence result thanks to a ...

We prove the boundedness of the fractional integration operator of variable order alpha(x) in the limiting Sobolev case alpha(x)p(x) = n - lambda(x) from variable exponent Morrey spaces L-p(.),L-lambda(.) (Omega) into BMO (Omega), where Omega is a bounded open set. In t...

Abstract Occupation coding, an important task in official statistics, refers to coding a respondent’s text answer into one of many hundreds of occupation codes. To date, occupation coding is still at least partially conducted manually, at great expense. We propose thre...

International audience; The periodically forced light-limited Droop model represents microalgae growth under co-limitation by light and a single substrate, accounting for periodic fluctuations of factors such as light and temperature. In this paper, we describe the glob...

We rigorously show the mean-field limit for a large class of swarming individual based models with local sharp sensitivity regions. For instance, these models include nonlocal repulsive-attractive forces locally averaged over sharp vision cones and Cucker-Smale interact...

When estimating multiple regression models with incomplete predictor variables, it is necessary to specify a joint distribution for the predictor variables. A convenient assumption is that this distribution is a multivariate normal distribution, which is also the defaul...

International audience; Numerical simulations of industrial and geophysical fluid flows cannot usually solve the exact Navier-Stokes equations. Accordingly, they encompass strong local errors. For some applications-like coupling models and measurements-these errors need...
