Estimation and prediction in generalized linear mixed models are often hampered by intractable high dimensional integrals. This paper provides a framework to solve this intractability, using asymptotic expansions when the number of random effects is large. To that end, we first derive a modified Laplace approximation when the number of random effects is increasing at a lower rate than the sampl...

Hough functions are the eigenfunctions of the Laplace tidal equation governing fluid motion on a rotating sphere with a resting basic state. Several numerical methods have been used in the past. In this paper, we compare two of those methods: normalized associated Legendre polynomial expansion and Chebyshev collocation. Both methods are not widely used, but both have some advantages over the co...

In this paper we study of collocation method with Radial Basis Function to solve one dimensional time dependent Schrodinger equation in an unbounded domain. To this end, we introduce artificial boundaries and reduce the original problem to an initial boundary value problem in a bounded domain with transparent boundary conditions that involves half order fractional derivative in t. Then in three...

Let be the Laplace-d'Alembert operator on a pseudo-Riemannian manifold (M; g). We derive a series expansion for the fundamental solution G(x; y) of + H , H 2 C 1 (M), which behaves well under various symmetric space dualities. The qualitative properties of this expansion were used in our paper in Invent. Math. 129 (1997) 63{74, to show that the property of vanishing logarithmic term for G(x; y)...

We prove Paley-Littlewood decompositions for the scales of fractional powers of 0-sectorial operators A on a Banach space which correspond to Triebel-Lizorkin spaces and the scale of Besov spaces if A is the classical Laplace operator on L(R). We use the H∞calculus, spectral multiplier theorems and generalized square functions on Banach spaces and apply our results to Laplace-type operators on ...

A new mathematical model of time fractional order heat equation and fractional order boundary condition have been constructed in the context of the generalized theory of thermo piezoelasticity. The governing equations have been applied to a semi infinite piezoelectric slab. The Laplace transform technique is used to remove the time-dependent terms in the governing differential equations and the...

A3.1 Laplace Expansion of Determinant and Permanent Definition A3.1.1. Let [n] = {1, . . . , n}, I = {i1, . . . , ik} ⊆ [n] and J = {j1, . . . , jk} ⊆ [n]. If A is an n× n matrix, define the k × k matrix A(I; J) = (ãrs) of A to be the matrix with entries ãrs = airjs . Also define the (n− k)× (n− k) complementary matrix A(I; J), where I and J are the complements of I and J respectively. Instead ...

We present a novel surface smoothing framework using the Laplace-Beltrami eigenfunctions. The Green's function of an isotropic diffusion equation on a manifold is constructed as a linear combination of the Laplace-Beltraimi operator. The Green's function is then used in constructing heat kernel smoothing. Unlike many previous approaches, diffusion is analytically represented as a series expansi...
