We prove that a certain series defines a constant function using Wolpert’s formula for the variation of the length of a geodesic along a Fenchel Nielsen twist. Subsequently we determine the value viewing it as function on the the Deligne Mumford compactification M1,1 and evaluating it at the stable curve at infinity. Conventions: 1. For γ an essential closed curve on a surface lγ(x) is the leng...

We compute explicitly the anisotropy eeect in the H 1 term, generated in the approximation of the Mumford-Shah functional by nite element spaces deened on structured triangulations.

Two important aspects of the epidemiology of suicides in the elderly people can potentially be applied to dementia. The first is the well-established observation of the independent effects of age, birth cohort membership, and the period on the risk of suicide in the elderly people (Murphy et al., 1986; Surtees and Duffy, 1989; Snowdon and Hunt, 2002). The second is the recently developed concep...

By the end of 1918, when Turkish National Struggle began, there was a military resistance, as well many organizations in political sense. While these could make decisions to organize Struggle, they also managed this struggle One them representative committee (Heyet-i Temsiliye) established at Erzurum Congress. On December 27, 1919, that came Ankara with Mustafa Kemal Pasha carried out its works...

We propose a variational approach for deblurring and impulsive noise removal in multi-channel images. A robust data fidelity measure and edge preserving regularization are employed. We consider several regularization approaches, such as Beltrami flow, Mumford-Shah and Total-Variation Mumford-Shah. The latter two methods are extended to multi-channel images and reformulated using the Γ -converge...

The aim of this paper is to prove the existence of extension operators for SBV functions from periodically perforated domains. This result will be the fundamental tool to prove the compactness in a non coercive homogenization problem.
