We consider the Maxwell-Lorentz equations, i.e., the equation of motion of a charged dust coupled to Maxwell’s equations, on an arbitrary general-relativistic spacetime. We decompose this system of equations into evolution equations and constraints, and we demonstrate that the evolution equations are strongly hyperbolic. This result guarantees that the initial-value problem of the Maxwell-Loren...

‎this paper presents an application of partial differential equations(pdes) for the segmentation of abdominal and thoracic aortic in cta datasets. an important challenge in reliably detecting aortic is the need to overcome problems associated with intensity inhomogeneities. level sets are part of an important class of methods that utilize partial differential equations (pdes) and have been exte...

BSSN-type evolution equations are discussed. The name refers to the Baumgarte, Shapiro, Shibata, and Nakamura version of the Einstein evolution equations, without introducing the conformal-traceless decomposition but keeping the three connection functions and including a densitized lapse. It is proved that a pseudodifferential first order reduction of these equations is strongly hyperbolic. In ...

Space-only noise is a natural random perturbation in equations without time evolution. Even the simplest equations driven by this noise often do not have a square-integrable solution and must be solved in special weighted spaces. The Cameron-Martin version of the Wiener chaos decomposition is an effective tool to study both stationary and evolution equations driven by space-only noise. The pape...
