We study the implications of unitarity for pseudo-orbit expansions of the spectral determinants of quantum maps and quantum graphs. In particular, we advocate to group pseudo-orbits into subdeterminants. We show explicitly that the cancellation of long orbits is elegantly described on this level and that unitarity can be built in using a simple subdeterminant identity which has a nontrivial int...

A Radau pseudospectral method is derived for solving state-inequality path constrained optimal control problems. The continuous-time state-inequality path constrained optimal control problem is modified by applying a set of tangency conditions at the entrance of the activity of the path constraint. It is shown that the first-order optimality condition of the nonlinear programming problem associ...

In [E. Babolian, M.M. Hosseini, Reducing index, and pseudospectral methods for differential-algebraic equations, Appl. Math. Comput. 140 (2003) 77–90], numerical solution of linear differential-algebraic equations (DAEs) has been presented by pseudospectral method. In this paper, a new error estimation technique is proposed to pseudospectral method such that is well done for linear semi-explici...

In this paper, we investigate a new pseudospectral method for mixed boundary value problems defined on quadrilaterals. We introduce a new Legendre-Gauss type interpolation and establish the basic approximation results, which play important roles in pseudospectral method for partial differential equations defined on quadrilaterals. We propose pseudospectral method for two model problems and prov...

Counterparty risk reduced-form models typically hinge on an immersion property of a reference filtration into the full model filtration enlarged by the default times of the counterparties, as well as on a continuity assumption on some of the data at default time. This is too restrictive for cases of strong wrong-way risk, i.e. adverse dependence between the exposure and the credit riskiness of ...

Based on a new approximation method, namely pseudospectral method, a solution for the three order nonlinear ordinary differential laminar boundary layer Falkner-Skan equation has been obtained on the semi-infinite domain. The proposed approach is equipped by the orthogonal Hermite functions that have perfect properties to achieve this goal. This method solves the problem on the semi-infinite do...

Handwriting has been proposed as a possible biometric for a number of years. However, recent work has shown that handwritten passphrases are vulnerable to both human-based and machine-based forgeries. Pseudosignatures as an alternative are designed to thwart such attacks while still being easy for users to create, remember, and reproduce. In this paper, we briefly review the concept of pseudo-s...

Pseudo equality algebras were initially introduced by Jenei and Kóródi as a possible algebraic semantic for fuzzy type theory, and they have been revised by Dvurečenskij and Zahiri under the name of JK-algebras. The aim of this paper is to investigate the internal states and the state-morphisms on pseudo equality algebras. We define and study new classes of pseudo equality algebras, such as com...
