Simulating time-varying strong lenses

چکیده

We present a self-consistent and versatile forward modelling software package that can produce time series pixel-level simulations of time-varying strongly lensed systems. The dimension, which needs to take into account different physical mechanisms for variability such as microlensing, has been missing from existing approaches it is direct relevance delay, consequently H0, measurements caustic crossing event predictions. Such experiments are becoming more streamlined, especially with the advent domain surveys, understanding their systematic statistical uncertainties in model-aware physics-driven way help improve accuracy precision. Here we demonstrate software's capabilities by exploring effect measuring delays quasars supernovae many wavelengths under microlensing intrinsic assumptions. In this initial application, find cadence observations combining information plays an important role correct recovery delays.

Strong Structural Controllability of Linear Time-Varying Systems

In this note we consider continuous-time systems ẋ(t) = A(t)x(t) + B(t)u(t) as well as discrete-time systems x(t + 1) = A(t)x(t) + B(t)u(t) whose coefficient matrices A and B are not exactly known. More precisely, all that is known about the systems is their nonzero pattern, i.e., the locations of the nonzero entries in the coefficient matrices. We characterize the patterns that guarantee contr...

Time varying networks and the weakness of strong ties

In most social and information systems the activity of agents generates rapidly evolving time-varying networks. The temporal variation in networks' connectivity patterns and the ongoing dynamic processes are usually coupled in ways that still challenge our mathematical or computational modelling. Here we analyse a mobile call dataset and find a simple statistical law that characterize the tempo...

Strong biases in infrared-selected gravitational lenses

Bright submillimetre-selected galaxies have been found to be a rich source of strong gravitational lenses. However, strong gravitational lensing of extended sources leads inevitably to differential magnification. In this paper I quantify the effect of differential magnification on simulated far-infrared and submillimetre surveys of strong gravitational lenses, using a foreground population of N...

Simulating Time

In a famous article entitled “Simulating Physics with Computers”, Richard Newman discusses the possibility of simulating quantum systems. The question of simulating time is also addressed. It is stated that, in simulations performed by cellular automata, time is not simulated but is rather imitated by being hidden behind the state to state transition. Simulating time and in particular simulatin...

FINITE-TIME PASSIVITY OF DISCRETE-TIME T-S FUZZY NEURAL NETWORKS WITH TIME-VARYING DELAYS

This paper focuses on the problem of finite-time boundedness and finite-time passivity of discrete-time T-S fuzzy neural networks with time-varying delays. A suitable Lyapunov--Krasovskii functional(LKF) is established to derive sufficient condition for finite-time passivity of discrete-time T-S fuzzy neural networks. The dynamical system is transformed into a T-S fuzzy model with uncertain par...
