Abstract Introduction: Isolated perfused heart models such as perfusion and superfusion are commonly used for mammalian heart research. However, there are several fundamental limitations in the current techniques. In perfusion model, a suitable cannula is connected to the aorta and the perfusion is retrogradely performed. But, electrode displacement is a potential unwanted event resulted fr...

Abstract. We follow the mathematical framework proposed by Bouchut [6] and present in this contribution a dual entropy approach for determining equilibrium states of a lattice Boltzmann scheme. This method is expressed in terms of the dual of the mathematical entropy relative to the underlying conservation law. It appears as a good mathematical framework for establishing a “H-theorem” for the s...

Controlled manipulation of the quantum systems is becoming an important technological tool. Rabi oscillations are one of the simplest, yet quite useful mechanisms for achieving such manipulation. However, the validity of simple Rabi theory is limited and its upgrades are usually both technically involved as well as limited to simple two-level systems. The aim of the paper is to demonstrate a si...

When using domain decomposition methods without overlapping, one can focus on displacements, such as primal approaches, [11] . . . , or on efforts, such as dual approaches, [6]. Since the latin approach used herein allows interfaces to play a major role, both displacements and efforts are the unknowns; it is a “mixed” approach. A general drawback with domain decomposition methods is the decreas...

This study explores the utilization of information accidentally accessible in the environment when solving a problem. It contrasts the spontaneous use with the prompted use of such information, i.e. it investigates the relationship between the degree of a priori confidence in the relevance of the information and its efficient use. Three degrees are consideredclose pragmatic distance (explicit h...

Several recent papers have proposed recursive Lagrangian-basedmethods for solving dynamic contracting problems. Thesemethods give rise to Bellman operators that incorporate either a dual inf-sup or a saddle point operation. We give conditions that ensure the Bellman operator implied by a dual recursive formulation is contractive. JEL codes: C61, C73, D82, E61.

In this paper we present a new approach for constructing subgradient schemes for different types of nonsmooth problems with convex structure. Our methods are primaldual since they are always able to generate a feasible approximation to the optimum of an appropriately formulated dual problem. Besides other advantages, this useful feature provides the methods with a reliable stopping criterion. T...

Dual-Primal FETI methods are nonoverlapping domain decomposition methods where some of the continuity constraints across subdomain boundaries are required to hold throughout the iterations, as in primal iterative substructuring methods, while most of the constraints are enforced by Lagrange multipliers, as in one-level FETI methods. The purpose of this article is to develop strategies for selec...
