Representation of Manifolds for the Stochastic Swift-Hohenberg Equation with Multiplicative Noise by Yanfeng Guo, Donglong Li

“…The approximate parameterizations of the small scales for the large scales are given in the process of seeking for stochastic parameterizing manifolds, which are obtained as pullback limits of some backward-forward systems depending on the time-history of the dynamics of the low modes in a mean square sense through the nonlinear terms. When the corresponding pullback limits of some backward-forward systems are efficiently determined, the corresponding non-Markovian reduced systems can be obtained for researching good modeling performances in practice.…”

A New Special Function and Its Application in Probability by Zeraoulia Rafik, Alvaro H. Salas, David L. Ocampo

“…We show a convincing numerical evidence about an accuracy of 10-6 for the approximants in the sense of the quadratic mean norm. A similar approach may be applied to other probability distributions, for example, Maxwell–Boltzmann distribution and normal distribution, such that we show its application using both of those distributions.…”

A morte em forma de poesia: comoção, indignação e reivindicação em cordéis midiatizados by Simone Mendes
