For any initial condition in the Sobolev space H , with s large, we prove the existence and unicity of classical solutions of the Cauchy problem associated to the equation.

  • Phase Retrieval Via Wirtinger Flow: Theory and Algorithms
    Phase Retrieval via Wirtinger Flow: Theory and Algorithms Emmanuel J. Cand`es∗ Xiaodong Li† Mahdi Soltanolkotabi‡ July 3, 2014; Revised January 2015 Abstract We study the problem of recovering the phase from magnitude measurements; specifically, we wish to reconstruct a complex-valued signal x ∈ Cn about which we have phaseless samples of the 2 form yr = S⟨ar; x⟩S , r = 1; : : : ; m (knowledge of the phase of these samples would yield a linear system). This paper develops a non-convex formulation of the phase retrieval problem as well as a concrete solution algorithm. In a nutshell, this algorithm starts with a careful initialization obtained by means of a spectral method, and then refines this initial estimate by iteratively applying novel update rules, which have low computational complexity, much like in a gradient descent scheme. The main contribution is that this algorithm is shown to rigorously allow the exact retrieval of phase information from a nearly minimal number of random measurements. Indeed, the sequence of successive iterates provably converges to the solution at a geometric rate so that the proposed scheme is efficient both in terms of computational and data resources. In theory, a variation on this scheme leads to a near-linear time algorithm for a physically realizable model based on coded diffraction patterns. We illustrate the effectiveness of our methods with various experiments on image data. Underlying our analysis are insights for the analysis of non- convex optimization schemes that may have implications for computational problems beyond phase retrieval. 1 Introduction We are interested in solving quadratic equations of the form 2 yr = S⟨ar; z⟩S ; r = 1; 2; : : : ; m; (1.1) n n where z ∈ C is the decision variable, ar ∈ C are known sampling vectors, and yr ∈ R are observed measurements.

Introduction This technical report gives a brief introduction to some elements of complex function theory. First, general definitions for complex differentiability and holomorphic functions are presented. Since non-analytic functions are not complex differentiable, the concept of differentials is explained both for complex-valued and real-valued mappings. Finally, multivariate differentials and Wirtinger derivatives are investigated. 3 2. Complex Differentiability and Holomorphic Functions Complex differentiability is defined as follows, cf. [Schmieder, 1993, Palka, 1991]: Definition 2.0.1. Let A ⊂ C be an open set. The function f : A ! C is said to be (complex) differentiable at z0 2 A if the limit f(z) − f(z ) lim 0 (2.1) ! z z0 z − z0 exists independent of the manner in which z ! z . This limit is then denoted by f 0(z ) = df(z) 0 0 dz z=z0 and is called the derivative of f with respect to z at the point z . 0 A similar expression for (2.1) known from real analysis reads as df(z) f(z + ∆z) − f(z) = lim ; (2.2) dz ∆z!0 ∆z where ∆z 2 C now holds.

Received 2015 February 13; in original form 2014 October 30 ABSTRACT Recent developments in optimization theory have extended some traditional al- gorithms for least-squares optimization of real-valued functions (Gauss-Newton, Levenberg-Marquardt, etc.) into the domain of complex functions of a complex vari- able. This employs a formalism called the Wirtinger derivative, and derives a full- complex Jacobian counterpart to the conventional real Jacobian. We apply these de- velopments to the problem of radio interferometric gain calibration, and show how the general complex Jacobian formalism, when combined with conventional optimization approaches, yields a whole new family of calibration algorithms, including those for the polarized and direction-dependent gain regime. We further extend the Wirtinger calculus to an operator-based matrix calculus for describing the polarized calibration regime. Using approximate matrix inversion results in computationally efficient im- plementations; we show that some recently proposed calibration algorithms such as StefCal and peeling can be understood as special cases of this, and place them in the context of the general formalism. Finally, we present an implementation and some applied results of CohJones, another specialized direction-dependent calibration al- gorithm derived from the formalism.

  • Ising Model and Field Theory: Lattice Local Fields and Massive Scaling Limit
    Ising Model and Field Theory: Lattice Local Fields and Massive Scaling Limit Thèse N° 7741 Présentée le 9 septembre 2019 à la Faculté des sciences de base Chaire de théorie des champs statistiques Programme doctoral en mathématiques pour l’obtention du grade de Docteur ès Sciences par Sung Chul PARK Acceptée sur proposition du jury Prof. M. Troyanov, président du jury Prof. C. Hongler, directeur de thèse Prof. F. Viklund, rapporteur Prof. D. Chelkak, rapporteur Prof. R. Dalang, rapporteur 2019 Abstract This thesis is devoted to the study of the local fields in the Ising model. The scaling limit of the critical Ising model is conjecturally described by Conformal Field Theory. The explicit predictions for the building blocks of the continuum theory (spin and energy density) have been rigorously established [HoSm13, CHI15]. We study how the field-theoretic description of these random fields extends beyond the critical regime of the model. Concretely, the thesis consists of two parts: The first part studies the behaviour of lattice local fields in the critical Ising model. A lattice local field is a function of a finite number of spins at microscopic distances from a given point. We study one-point functions of these fields (in particular, their asymptotics under scaling limit and conformal invariance). Our analysis, based on discrete complex analysis methods, results in explicit computations which are of interest in applications (e.g. [HKV17]). The second part considers the behaviour of the massive spin field. In the subcritical massive scaling limit regime first considered by Wu, McCoy, Tracy, and Barouch [WMTB76], we show that the correlations of the massive spin field in a bounded domain have a scaling limit.

Master in electric Power Engineering Universidad Tecnológica de Pereira August 19, 2020 Abstract This work presents a tertiary control for microgrids considering renewable energy sources and energy storage devices. The proposed model considers the operation in 24h includ- ing capacity and grid-code limitations. The optimization problem under consideration is non-convex, therefore, the model is approximated to a convex representation, by using a linear formulation of the optimal power flow equations via Wirtinger’s calculus. As for the mathematical methodology, the use of convex optimization and Wirtinger calculus guarantee uniqueness of the solution, global optimality and convergence of the algorithms. These characteristics are key for applications in automation processes such as the tertiary control which requires real-time operation. The model is implemented in a low cost small single-board computer (Raspberry-pi) programmed in Python. Nu- merical experiments on the CIGRE low voltage test system demonstrate the usage of the model. 2 Contents 1 Introduction 6 1.1 Motivation . .6 1.2 State of the art . .7 1.3 Contribution . .9 1.4 Outline of the thesis . 10 2 Operation of microgrids 11 2.1 Hierarchical control .

  • Holomorphic Functions and Power Series
    Holomorphic Functions and Power Series Having studied the basic properties of the complex eld, we now study functions of a complex variable. We dene what it means for a complex-valued function dened on a domain in the com- plex plane to be complex-dierentiable. We then study the relationship between this new notion of dierentiability and the already familiar notion of real-dierentiability. Functions that are complex- dierentiable at every point in a domain are called holomorphic functions. For various reasons, which we shall study in great detail, a function being holomorphic is far more restrictive than the function being real-dierentiable. The focal point of this chapter will be power series and functions that have local power series expansions, i.e., analytic functions. The reason for this is two-fold: 1. The most important functions that arise in practice are analytic. 2. All holomorphic functions are analytic! The second point above will be one of the central theorems we will prove in this course. We end this chapter with a brief exposition of the exponential and trigonometric functions. Notation: Throughout this chapter, U will be a domain in C with a 2 U and f : U ! C. will be a function. 1 Holomorphic functions 1.1 Definitions and examples Denition 1. Let U ⊂ C be open and f : U ! C be a map and a 2 U . We say f is complex- dierentiable (C-dierentiable at a) if f (z) − f (a) lim 0,z!a z − a exists and in which case we denote the limit by f 0(a) and call it the complex derivative of f at a.

    On the nonlinear Cauchy-Riemann equations of structural transformation and nonlinear Laplace equation Gen Wang ∗ Department of Mathematics, Zhejiang Normal University, ZheJiang, Jinhua 321004, P.R.China. Abstract This paper aims at studying a functional K-transformation w (z) w (z) = → w (z) K (z) that is made to reconsider the complex differentiability for a given complex function w and subsequently we obtain structural holomorphic to judge a complexe function to be complex structural differentiable. Since K (z) can be chosen arbitrarily, thus it has greatly generalized the applied practicability. And we particularly consider K (z)=1+ κ (z), then we found an unique Carleman-Bers-Vekua equations which is more simpler that all coefficients are dependent to the structural function κ (z). The generalized exterior differential operator and the generalized Wirtinger derivatives are simultaneously obtained as well. As a discussion, second-order nonlinear Laplace equation is studied.
