We prove that the linear term and quadratic nonlinear term entering a nonlinear elliptic equation of divergence type can be uniquely identified by the Dirichlet to Neuman map. The unique identifiability is proved using the complex geometrical optics solutions and singular solutions. Mathematics subject classification (MSC2000): 35R30

The issue of concern is the impact of forward model nonlinearity on the nonlinearity of the inverse model. The question posed is, "Does increased nonlinearity in the head solution (forward model) always result in increased nonlinearity in the inverse solution (estimation of hydraulic conductivity)?" It is shown that the two nonlinearities are separate, and it is not universally true that increa...

This study focuses on the dynamic pattern of heart rate variability in the frequency range of respiration, the so-called respiratory sinus arrhythmia. Forty experimental time series of heart rate data from four healthy adult volunteers undergoing a paced respiration protocol were used as an empirical basis. For pacing-cycle lengths >8 s, the heartbeat intervals are shown to obey a rule that can...

the volterra model is widely used for nonlinearity identification in practical applications. in this paper, we employed volterra model to find the nonlinearity relation between electroencephalogram (eeg) signal and the noise that is a novel approach to estimate noise in eeg signal. we show that by employing this method. we can considerably improve the signal to noise ratio by the ratio of at le...

A temporal-feature map is a topographic neuronal representation of temporal attributes of phenomena or objects that occur in the outside world. We explain the evolution of such maps by means of a spike-based Hebbian learning rule in conjunction with a presynaptically unspecific contribution in that, if a synapse changes, then all other synapses connected to the same axon change by a small fract...

We study time-reversal symmetry in dynamical systems with finite phase space, with applications to birational maps reduced over finite fields. For a polynomial automorphism with a single family of reversing symmetries, a universal (i.e. map-independent) distribution function R(x) = 1 − e−x(1 + x) has been conjectured to exist, for the normalized cycle lengths of the reduced map in the large fie...

We construct an approximate renormalization for Hamiltonian systems with two degrees of freedom in order to study the break-up of invariant tori with arbitrary frequency. We derive the equation of the critical surface of the renormalization map, and we compute the scaling behavior of the critical function of one-parameter families of Hamiltonians, near rational frequencies. For the forced pendu...

We study the interfaces’ time evolution in one-dimensional bistable extended dynamical systems with discrete time. The dynamics is governed by the competition between a local piece-wise affine bistable mapping and any couplings given by the convolution with a function of bounded variation. We prove the existence of travelling wave interfaces, namely fronts, and the uniqueness of the correspondi...
