This work quantifies the impact of most important 4th-order sensitivities leakage response a polyethylene-reflected plutonium (PERP) reactor physics benchmark with respect to benchmark’s 180 group-averaged microscopic total cross sections, on expected value, variance and skewness response. shows that, as standard deviations sections increase, contributions response’s value become significantly ...

FOLLOING OUR PREVIOS PROJECT [1], WE ARE GOING TO PROVE THE EXISTENCE AND UNIQUENESS OF THE SOLUTION OF THE SPECTRAL PROBLEM IN THIS PROJECT.FIRST,WE HAVE PROVEN THE UNIQUENESS OF THE SOLUTION THEN TO PROVE THE EXISTRNCE WE CONSTENSS OF THE ADJOINT PROBLEM CORRESPONDING TO THIS SPECTRAL PROBLEM NEXT THE UNIQUESS OF THE ADJOINT PROBLEM IS THE EXISTENCE OF THE MAIN PROBLEM AS DISCUSSED BY[2] AND ...

we give some sufficient conditions under which the tuple of the adjoint of weighted composition operators $(c_{omega_1,varphi_1}^*‎ , ‎c_{omega_2,varphi_2}^*)$ on the hilbert space $mathcal{h}$ of analytic functions is supercyclic‎.

We discuss the numerical computation of sensitivities via the adjoint approach in optimization problems governed by differential equations. We focus on the adjoint problem in its weak form. We show how one can avoid some of the problems with the adjoint approach, such as deriving suitable boundary conditions for the adjoint equation. We discuss the convergence of numerical approximations of the...

Adjoint programs play a central role in modern numerical algorithms such as large-scale sensitivity analysis, parameter tuning, and general nonlinear optimization. They can be generated automatically by compilers. In such cases, the data flow of the original program needs to be reversed. If message passing is used, then any communication needs to be reversed, too. Crucial properties of the orig...

An adjoint sensitivity method is presented for parameter-dependent differentialalgebraic equation systems (DAEs). The adjoint system is derived, along with conditions for its consistent initialization, for DAEs of index up to two (Hessenberg). For stable linear DAEs, stability of the adjoint system (for semi-explicit DAEs) or of an augmented adjoint system (for fully implicit DAEs) is shown. In...

This thesis consists of four papers and deals with supersingular rank one perturbations of self-adjoint operators and their models in Hilbert or Pontryagin spaces. Here, the term supersingular describes perturbation elements that are outside the underlying space but still obey a certain regularity conditions. The first two papers study certain Sturm-Liouville differential expressions that can b...
