چکیده

We consider the best entropic estimation to a unknown density x, given some of its algebraic or trigonometric moments. A uniform convergence theorem is established in this paper for such problems using Fermi-Dirac type entropic objectives .

On Stability and Strong Convergence for the Spatially Homogeneous Boltzmann Equation for Fermi-dirac Particles

ABSTRACT. The paper considers the stability and strong convergence to equilibrium of solutions to the spatially homogeneous Boltzmann equation for Fermi-Dirac particles. Under the usual cut-off condition on the collision kernel, we prove a strong stability in L-topology at any finite time interval, and, for hard and Maxwellian potentials, we prove that the solutions converge strongly in L to eq...

Diffusive Semiconductor Moment Equations Using Fermi-Dirac Statistics

Diffusive moment equations with an arbitrary number of moments are formally derived from the semiconductor Boltzmann equation employing a moment method and a Chapman-Enskog expansion. The moment equations are closed by employing a generalized Fermi-Dirac distribution function obtained from entropy maximization. The current densities allow for a drift-diffusion-type formulation or a “symmetrized...

Compressive and rarefactive dust-ion acoustic solitary waves in four components ‎quantum plasma with dust-charge variation

Based on quantum hydrodynamics theory (QHD), the propagation of nonlinear quantum dust-ion acoustic (QDIA) solitary waves in a ‎collision-less, unmagnetized four component quantum plasma consisting of electrons, positrons, ions and stationary negatively charged ‎dust grains with dust charge variation is investigated using reductive perturbation method. The charging current to the dust grains ca...

Measures of uncertainty mathematical programming and physics

The first section gives the measure of uncertainty given by Shannon (1948) and the generalizations thereof by Schvitzenberger (1954), Kullback (1959), Renyi (1961,1965), Kapur (1967, 1968), and Rathie (1970). It gives some postulates characterizing Shannon's entropy, Renyi's entropy of order a and our entropy of order a and type P. It also gives some properties of this most general type of entr...

SADDLE POINT VARIATIONAL METHOD FOR DIRAC CONFINEMENT

A saddle point variational (SPV ) method was applied to the Dirac equation as an example of a fully relativistic equation with both negative and positive energy solutions. The effect of the negative energy states was mitigated by maximizing the energy with respect to a relevant parameter while at the same time minimizing it with respect to another parameter in the wave function. The Cornell pot...
