چکیده

The aim of the present paper is to define a notion of weakly differentiable cochain in the generality of metric measure spaces and to study basic properties of such cochains. Our cochains are (sub)additive functionals on a subspace of chains, and a suitable notion of chains in metric spaces is given by Ambrosio–Kirchheim’s theory of metric currents. The notion of weak differentiability we introduce is in analogy with Heinonen–Koskela’s concept of upper gradients of functions. In one of the main results of our paper, we prove continuity estimates for cochains with p-integrable upper gradient in n-dimensional Lie groups endowed with a left-invariant Finsler metric. Our result generalizes the well-known Morrey–Sobolev inequality for Sobolev functions. Finally, we prove several results relating capacity and modulus to Hausdorff dimension. Résumé On propose une définition de cochaine faiblement différentiable dans un espace métrique mesuré et on étudie ses propriétés. Dans cet article, une cochaine est une fonction (sous-)additive définie sur un sous-espace de l’espace des courants métriques au sens de Ambrosio–Kirchheim. La notion de différentiabilité faible introduite est analogue au concept de gradient supérieur d’une fonction introduit par Heinonen–Koskela. Un des résultats essentiels de cet article établit la continuité d’une cochaine avec gradient supérieur p-intégrable dans un groupe de Lie muni d’une métrique finslérienne invariante à gauche. Ce résultat généralise l’inégalité de Morrey–Sobolev pour des fonctions d’un espace de Sobolev. De plus, on établit des résultats qui relient la capacité et le module à la dimension de Hausdorff.

Cochains and Homotopy Type

Finite type nilpotent spaces are weakly equivalent if and only if their singular cochains are quasi-isomorphic as E∞ algebras. The cochain functor from the homotopy category of finite type nilpotent spaces to the homotopy category of E∞ algebras is faithful but not full.

Uniqueness of degenerate Fokker – Planck equations with weakly differentiable drift whose gradient is given by a singular integral ∗

In this paper we prove the uniqueness of solutions to degenerate Fokker–Planck equations with bounded coefficients, under the additional assumptions that the diffusion coefficient has W 1,2 loc regularity, while the gradient of the drift coefficient is merely given by a singular integral.

INVENTORY MODEL WITH DEMAND AS TYPE-2 FUZZY NUMBER: A FUZZY DIFFERENTIAL EQUATION APPROACH

An inventory model is formulated with type-2 fuzzy parameters under trade credit policy and solved by using Generalized Hukuhara derivative approach. Representing demand parameter of each expert's opinion is a membership function of type-1 and thus, this membership function again becomes fuzzy. The final opinion of all experts is expressed by a type-2 fuzzy variable. For this present problem, t...

Kernel Conjugate Gradient for Fast Kernel Machines

We propose a novel variant of the conjugate gradient algorithm, Kernel Conjugate Gradient (KCG), designed to speed up learning for kernel machines with differentiable loss functions. This approach leads to a better conditioned optimization problem during learning. We establish an upper bound on the number of iterations for KCG that indicates it should require less than the square root of the nu...
