Parallel Metaheuristic Search
The chapter presents a general picture of parallel meta-heuristic search for optimization. It recalls the main concepts and strategies in designing... -
Hybrid Model Predictive Control
This article collects several model predictive control (MPC) strategies in the literature that have a hybrid flavor, which, due to the diverse use of... -
Collective Dynamics and Bifurcations in Symmetric Networks of Phase Oscillators. I
The present paper is a brief survey of the history and development of the famous Kuramoto model of coupled phase oscillators. We consider several...

Conservative set valued fields, automatic differentiation, stochastic gradient methods and deep learning
Modern problems in AI or in numerical analysis require nonsmooth approaches with a flexible calculus. We introduce generalized derivatives called...

The Index and Some Plane Topology
In this chapter we complete the preliminary investigations of Chapter I on the topology of the plane. The chief tools are the index and deformation... -
Clustering II: Topics in Clustering
Following Chap. 9 , this chapter continues to deal with clustering. We describe many associated topics such... -
Low-field electron mobility evaluation in silicon nanowire transistors using an extended hydrodynamic model
Silicon nanowires (SiNWs) are quasi-one-dimensional structures in which electrons are spatially confined in two directions and they are free to move...

Weak convergence of the conditional U-statistics for locally stationary functional time series
In recent years, the direction has turned to non-stationary time series. Here the situation is more complicated: it is often unclear how to set down...

Mathematics of Interplanetary Flight
Chapter 6 is a discussion of the complex aspects of the design of the trajectory of a spacecraft and the maneuvers that direct it to its target.... -
Mathematical programming based heuristics for the 0–1 MIP: a survey
The 0–1 mixed integer programming problem is used for modeling many combinatorial problems, ranging from logical design to scheduling and routing as...

Paradigmatic Classification
Paradigmatic classification deals with formation of classes of objects which belong to specific paradigms. Here, paradigms are fields of equivalence... -
Variational Analysis of Nematic Shells
In this note we present some recent results on the Mathematical Analysis of Nematic Shells. The type of results we present deal with the analysis of... -
Complex Integration
In this chapter we study integrals of complex-variable functions over paths. Paths are piecewise continuously differentiable maps from closed... -
Introduction to Part IV
When looking at the early development of relativity theory, one finds an astonishing number of contributions by mathematicians, some of which deeply... -
Lifted collocation integrators for direct optimal control in ACADO toolkit
This paper presents a class of efficient Newton-type algorithms for solving the nonlinear programs (NLPs) arising from applying a direct collocation...

From Euclid to Riemann and Beyond: How to Describe the Shape of the Universe
The purpose of this essay is to trace the historical development of geometry while focusing on how we acquired mathematical tools for describing the... -
In-Between Things
The most exciting phrase to hear in science, the one that heralds new discoveries, is not ‘Eureka!’ but ‘That’s funny…’ -
