The Anti-de Sitter Proof of Thurston’s Earthquake Theorem
Thurston’s earthquake theorem asserts that every orientation-preserving homeomorphism of the circle admits an extension to the hyperbolic plane which...

Estimation of Current Earthquake Hazard Through Nowcasting Method
In several tectonically active regions of the world, large magnitude earthquakes on fault systems are observed to occur in near-repetitive cycles as...

Deep reinforcement learning for approximate policy iteration: convergence analysis and a post-earthquake disaster response case study
Approximate policy iteration (API) is a class of reinforcement learning (RL) algorithms that seek to solve the long-run discounted reward Markov...

On the Determination of the Velocity and Elastic Parameters of a Medium in the Focal Zone from Earthquake Hodographs
AbstractWe consider the inverse kinematic problem of seismics (IKPS) with internal sources. It consists in determining the velocities of the...

Teichmüller Spaces and Their Various Metrics
This chapter is a survey on three different kinds of Finsler metrics on Teichmüller spaces. We start from the most classical one, which appeared...

A fractional approach to study the pure-temporal Epidemic Type Aftershock Sequence (ETAS) process for earthquakes modeling
In statistical seismology, the Epidemic Type Aftershocks Sequence (ETAS) model is a branching process used world-wide to forecast earthquake...

On Computing Medians of Marked Point Process Data Under Edit Distance
In this paper, we consider the problem of computing a median of marked point process data under an edit distance. We formulate this problem as a...

Calculation of the Initial Elevation of the Water Surface at the Source of a Tsunami in a Basin with Arbitrary Bottom Topography
AbstractA two-dimensional (0 xz ) numerical model that makes it possible to calculate the initial elevation of the water surface in the source of a...

Analysis of dynamic stress concentration in three different types of poro-viscoelastic rock medium
The propagation of shear waves inside/at the Earth’s crust during earthquake may cause the progression of punch in the rock medium. In this study,...
