Download or read book The Joint Spectral Radius written by Raphaël Jungers and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2009-05-19 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph is based on the Ph.D. Thesis of the author [58]. Its goal is twofold: First, it presents most researchwork that has been done during his Ph.D., or at least the part of the work that is related with the joint spectral radius. This work was concerned with theoretical developments (part I) as well as the study of some applications (part II). As a second goal, it was the author’s feeling that a survey on the state of the art on the joint spectral radius was really missing in the literature, so that the ?rst two chapters of part I present such a survey. The other chapters mainly report personal research, except Chapter 5 which presents animportantapplicationofthejointspectralradius:thecontinuityofwavelet functions. The ?rst part of this monograph is dedicated to theoretical results. The ?rst two chapters present the above mentioned survey on the joint spectral radius. Its minimum-growth counterpart, the joint spectral subradius, is also considered. The next two chapters point out two speci?c theoretical topics, that are important in practical applications: the particular case of nonne- tive matrices, and the Finiteness Property. The second part considers applications involving the joint spectral radius.

Download or read book Linear Algebra for Signal Processing written by Adam Bojanczyk and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Signal processing applications have burgeoned in the past decade. During the same time, signal processing techniques have matured rapidly and now include tools from many areas of mathematics, computer science, physics, and engineering. This trend will continue as many new signal processing applications are opening up in consumer products and communications systems. In particular, signal processing has been making increasingly sophisticated use of linear algebra on both theoretical and algorithmic fronts. This volume gives particular emphasis to exposing broader contexts of the signal processing problems so that the impact of algorithms and hardware can be better understood; it brings together the writings of signal processing engineers, computer engineers, and applied linear algebraists in an exchange of problems, theories, and techniques. This volume will be of interest to both applied mathematicians and engineers.

Download or read book Combinatorics Automata and Number Theory written by Valérie Berthé and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2010-08-12 with total page 637 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collaborative volume presents trends arising from the fruitful interaction between the themes of combinatorics on words, automata and formal language theory, and number theory. Presenting several important tools and concepts, the authors also reveal some of the exciting and important relationships that exist between these different fields. Topics include numeration systems, word complexity function, morphic words, Rauzy tilings and substitutive dynamical systems, Bratelli diagrams, frequencies and ergodicity, Diophantine approximation and transcendence, asymptotic properties of digital functions, decidability issues for D0L systems, matrix products and joint spectral radius. Topics are presented in a way that links them to the three main themes, but also extends them to dynamical systems and ergodic theory, fractals, tilings and spectral properties of matrices. Graduate students, research mathematicians and computer scientists working in combinatorics, theory of computation, number theory, symbolic dynamics, fractals, tilings and stringology will find much of interest in this book.

Download or read book Construction of Wavelets Through Walsh Functions written by Yu. A. Farkov and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-04-29 with total page 381 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on the fusion of wavelets and Walsh analysis, which involves non-trigonometric function series (or Walsh–Fourier series). The primary objective of the book is to systematically present the basic properties of non-trigonometric orthonormal systems such as the Haar system, Haar–Vilenkin system, Walsh system, wavelet system and frame system, as well as updated results on the book’s main theme. Based on lectures that the authors presented at several international conferences, the notions and concepts introduced in this interdisciplinary book can be applied to any situation where wavelets and their variants are used. Most of the applications of wavelet analysis and Walsh analysis can be tried for newly constructed wavelets. Given its breadth of coverage, the book offers a valuable resource for theoreticians and those applying mathematics in diverse areas. It is especially intended for graduate students of mathematics and engineering and researchers interested in applied analysis.

Download or read book Gian Carlo Rota on Analysis and Probability written by Jean Dhombres and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2002-12-06 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gian-Carlo Rota was born in Vigevano, Italy, in 1932. He died in Cambridge, Mas sachusetts, in 1999. He had several careers, most notably as a mathematician, but also as a philosopher and a consultant to the United States government. His mathe matical career was equally varied. His early mathematical studies were at Princeton (1950 to 1953) and Yale (1953 to 1956). In 1956, he completed his doctoral thesis under the direction of Jacob T. Schwartz. This thesis was published as the pa per "Extension theory of differential operators I", the first paper reprinted in this volume. Rota's early work was in analysis, more specifically, in operator theory, differ ential equations, ergodic theory, and probability theory. In the 1960's, Rota was motivated by problems in fluctuation theory to study some operator identities of Glen Baxter (see [7]). Together with other problems in probability theory, this led Rota to study combinatorics. His series of papers, "On the foundations of combi natorial theory", led to a fundamental re-evaluation of the subject. Later, in the 1990's, Rota returned to some of the problems in analysis and probability theory which motivated his work in combinatorics. This was his intention all along, and his early death robbed mathematics of his unique perspective on linkages between the discrete and the continuous. Glimpses of his new research programs can be found in [2,3,6,9,10].

Download or read book Algebraic Frames for the Perception Action Cycle written by Gerald Sommer and published by Springer. This book was released on 2006-12-30 with total page 359 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume presents the proceedings of the 2nd International Workshop on - gebraic Frames for the Perception and Action Cycle. AFPAC 2000. held in Kiel, Germany, 10–11 September 2000. The presented topics cover new results in the conceptualization, design, and implementation of visual sensor-based robotics and autonomous systems. Special emphasis is placed on the role of algebraic modelling in the relevant disciplines, such as robotics, computer vision, theory of multidimensional signals, and neural computation. The aims of the workshop are twofold: ?rst, discussion of the impact of algebraic embedding of the task at hand on the emergence of new qualities of modelling and second, facing the strong relations between dominant geometric problems and algebraic modelling. The ?rst workshop in this series, AFPAC’97. inspired several groups to i- tiate new research programs, or to intensify ongoing research work in this ?eld, and the range of relevant topics was consequently broadened, The approach adopted by this workshop does not necessarily ?t the mainstream of worldwide research-granting policy. However, its search for fundamental problems in our ?eld may very well lead to new results in the relevant disciplines and contribute to their integration in studies of the perception–action cycle.

Download or read book Control Subject to Computational and Communication Constraints written by Sophie Tarbouriech and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-06-01 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a broad overview of the current problems, challenges and solutions in the field of control theory, communication theory and computational resources management. Recent results on dynamical systems, which open new opportunities for research and challenges to be addressed in the future, are proposed in the context of computational and communication constraints. In order to take into the account complex phenomena, such as nonlinearities, time-varying parameters and limited availability of information, the book proposes new approaches for open problems with both theoretical and practical significance. The contributors’ research is centred on robust stability and performance of control loops that are subject to computational and communication constraints. A particular focus is placed on the presence of constraints in communication and computation, which is a critical issue in networked control systems and cyber-physical systems. The contributions, which rely on the development of novel paradigms are provided are by leading experts in the field from all over the world, thus providing readers with the most accurate solutions for the constraints. Control subject to Computational and Communication Constraints highlights many problems encountered by control researchers, while also informing graduate students of the many interesting ideas at the frontier between control theory, information theory and computational theory. The book is also a useful point of reference for engineers and practitioners, and the survey chapters will assist instructors in lecture preparation.

Download or read book Fast and Precise Approximations of the Joint Spectral Radius written by Vincent Blondel and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this paper, we introduce a procedure for approximating the joint spectral radius of a finite set of matrices with arbitrary precision. Our approximation procedure is based on semidefinite liftings and can be implemented in a recursive way. For two matrices even the first step of the procedure gives an approximation, whose relative quality is at least 1/√2, that is, more than 70%. The subsequent steps improve the quality but also increase the dimension of the auxiliary problem from which this approximation can be found. In an improved version of our approximation procedure we show how a relative quality of (1/√2(1/k)) can be obtained by evaluating the spectral radius of a single matrix of dimension nk nk+1)/2 where n is the dimension of the initial matrices. This result is computationally optimal in the sense that it provides an approximation of relative quality 1-[epsilon] in time polynomial in n(1/[epsilon]) and it is known that, unless P = NP, no such algorithm is possible that runs in time polynomial in n and 1/[epsilon]. For the special case of matrices with non-negative entries we prove that... where A(*k) denotes the kth Kroneckerp owerof A. An approximation of relative quality (1/2)(1/k) can therefore be obtained by computing the spectral radius of a single matrix of dimension n(k). From these inequalities it also follows that the spectral radius is given by the simple expression... where it is somewhat surprising to notice that the right hand side does not directly involve any mixed products between the matrices A1 and A2.
