چکیده

In this paper we present a Multi-Element generalized Polynomial Chaos (MEgPC) method to deal with stochastic inputs with arbitrary probability measures. Based on the decomposition of the random space of the stochastic inputs, we construct numerically a set of orthogonal polynomials with respect to a conditional probability density function (PDF) in each element and subsequently implement generalized Polynomial Chaos (gPC) locally. Numerical examples show that ME-gPC exhibits both pand h-convergence for arbitrary probability measures.

A Paley-wiener Theorem for the Askey-wilson Function Transform

We define an analogue of the Paley-Wiener space in the context of the Askey-Wilson function transform, compute explicitly its reproducing kernel and prove that the growth of functions in this space of entire functions is of order two and type ln q−1, providing a Paley-Wiener Theorem for the Askey-Wilson transform. Up to a change of scale, this growth is related to the refined concepts of expone...

Expansions in the Askey–Wilson Polynomials

We give a general expansion formula of functions in the Askey–Wilson polynomials and using the Askey–Wilson orthogonality we evaluate several integrals. Moreover we give a general expansion formula of functions in polynomials of Askey–Wilson type, which are not necessarily orthogonal. Limiting cases give expansions in little and big q-Jacobi type polynomials. We also give a new generating funct...

Evaluation of Non-Intrusive Approaches for Wiener-Askey Generalized Polynomial Chaos

Polynomial chaos expansions (PCE) are an attractive technique for uncertainty quantification (UQ) due to their strong mathematical basis and ability to produce functional representations of stochastic variability. When tailoring the orthogonal polynomial bases to match the forms of the input uncertainties in a Wiener-Askey scheme, excellent convergence properties can be achieved for general pro...

Nonharmonic Gabor Expansions

We consider Gabor systems generated by a Gaussian function and prove certain classical results of Paley and Wiener on nonharmonic Fourier series of complex exponentials for the Gabor expansion‎. ‎In particular, we prove a version of Plancherel-Po ́lya theorem for entire functions with finite order of growth and use the Hadamard factorization theorem to study regularity‎, ‎exactness and deficienc...
