Computing the distance to continuous-time instability of quadratic matrix polynomials
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)A bisection method is used to compute lower and upper bounds on the distance from a quadratic matrix polynomial to the set of quadratic matrix polynomials having an eigenvalue on the imaginary axis. Each bisection step ... -
Conditioning reservoir models on vast data sets
(Doctoral thesis, 2021-09-09)History matching is a valuable process to obtain better models and a more reliable forecast in oil reservoir applications. In such processes, one conditions the simulation models on the observed data from the field. One ... -
Conforming Discretizations of Mixed-Dimensional Partial Differential Equations
(Doctoral thesis, 2018-06-01)Mixed-dimensional partial differential equations (PDEs) are coupled equations defined on connected manifolds of different dimensionalities. Two main examples of mixed-dimensional PDEs are considered in this dissertation, ... -
Conforming, non-conforming and non-matching discretization couplings in discrete fracture network simulations
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Simulations of fluid flow in naturally fractured rocks have implications for several subsurface applications, including energy storage and extraction, and waste disposal. We are interested in flow in discrete fracture ... -
Connecting Species-Specific Extents of Genome Reduction in Mitochondria and Plastids
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Mitochondria and plastids have both dramatically reduced their genomes since the endosymbiotic events that created them. The similarities and differences in the evolution of the two organelle genome types have been the ... -
A conservative stochastic Dirac-Klein-Gordon system
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Considered herein is a particular nonlinear dispersive stochastic system consisting of Dirac and Klein-Gordon equations. They are coupled by nonlinear terms due to the Yukawa interaction. We consider a case of homogeneous ... -
Consideration of measurement errors for the Norwegian common minke whale (Balaenoptera acutorostrata acutorostrata) surveys
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)A discrete measurement error model for radial distance and angle to detected objects in line transect surveys is considered. This approach directly quantifies the effect of measurement error on the estimated effective strip ... -
Considering sampling bias in close-kin mark–recapture abundance estimates of Atlantic salmon
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Genetic methods for the estimation of population size can be powerful alternatives to conventional methods. Close-kin mark–recapture (CKMR) is based on the principles of conventional mark–recapture, but instead of being ... -
Consistency issues in pdf methods
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015)Concentrations of chemical species transported in random environments need to be statistically characterized by probability density functions (PDF). Solutions to evolution equations for the one-point one-time PDF are usually ... -
Consistent MPFA Discretization for Flow in the Presence of Gravity
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)A standard practice used in the industry to discretizing the gravity term in the two‐phase Darcy flow equations is to apply an upwind strategy. In this paper, we show that this can give a persistent unphysical flux field ... -
Construction of Equilibria in Strategic Stackelberg Games in Multi-Period Supply Chain Contracts
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022-10-27)Almost every supplier faces uncertain and time-varying demand. E-commerce and online shopping have given suppliers unprecedented access to data on customers’ behavior, which sheds light on demand uncertainty. The main ... -
A continous Dependence Result for nonlinear degenerate parabolic Equations with spatially dependent flux Function.

Continuity of Formal Power Series Products in Nonlinear Control Theory
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Formal power series products appear in nonlinear control theory when systems modeled by Chen–Fliess series are interconnected to form new systems. In fields like adaptive control and learning systems, the coefficients of ... -
Continuous dependence estimates for viscosity solutions of fully nonlinear degenerate elliptic equations.
(Department of Applied Mathematics report, Research report, 2001-08) -
A Continuous Max-Flow Approach to Minimal Partitions with Label Cost Prior
(Chapter; Peer reviewed, 2011)This paper investigates a convex relaxation approach for minimum description length (MDL) based image partitioning or labeling, which proposes an energy functional regularized by the spatial smoothness prior joint with a ... -
Continuous Max-Flow for Image Segmentation with Shape Priors
(Master thesis, 2014-06-02)In this thesis we propose a stable method for image segmentation with shape priors. The original Chan-Vese intensity based segmentation model with regularisation term is extended to include shape prior information. We study ... -
Continuous Updating of a Coupled Reservoir-Seismic Model Using an Ensemble Kalman Filter Technique
(Doctoral thesis, 2007-03-29)This work presents the development of a method based on the ensemble Kalman filter (EnKF) for continuous reservoir model updating with respect to the combination of production data, 3D seismic data and time-lapse seismic ... -
Controllability and diffeomorphism groups on manifolds with boundary
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)In this article we consider diffeomorphism groups of manifolds with smooth boundary. We show that the diffeomorphism groups of the manifold and its boundary fit into a short exact sequence which admits local sections. In ... -
Controllability on Infinite-Dimensional Manifolds: A Chow-Rashevsky Theorem
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-04-29)One of the fundamental problems in control theory is that of controllability, the question of whether one can drive the system from one point to another with a given class of controls. A classical result in geometric control ... -
Convective mixing in geological carbon storage
(Doctoral thesis, 2011-11-25)The industrial era has seen an exponential growth in the atmospheric concentration of carbon dioxide (CO2), resulting mainly from the burning of fossil fuels. This can cause changes in the climate that have severe impacts ...
