    3D convective Cahn-Hilliard equation
    (Amer Inst Mathematical Sciences-Aims, 2007) Eden, Alp; Department of Mathematics; Kalantarov, Varga; Faculty Member; Department of Mathematics; College of Sciences; 117655
    We consider the initial boundary value problem for the 3D convective Cahn - Hilliard equation with periodic boundary conditions. This gives rise to a continuous dynamical system on L-2(ohm). Absorbing balls in L-2(ohm), H-per(1)(ohm) and H-per(2)(ohm) are shown to exist. Combining with the compactness property of the solution semigroup we conclude the existence of the global attractor. Restricting the dynamical system on the absorbing ball in H-per(2)(ohm) and using the general framework in Eden et. all. [] the existence of an exponential attractor is guaranteed. This approach also gives an explicit upper estimate of the dimension of the exponential attractor, albeit of the global attractor.

    A remark about energy decay of a thermoelasticity problem
    (Inst Applied Mathematics, 2012) Meyvacı, M.; Department of Mathematics; Kalantarov, Varga; Faculty Member; Department of Mathematics; College of Sciences; 117655
    Under some restrictions on the parameters of the system we prove that solutions of the initial boundary value problem for the one dimensional porous - thermo - elasticity system of equations under consideration tend to zero as t -> 8 with an exponential rate.

    A support function based algorithm for optimization with eigenvalue constraints
    (Siam Publications, 2017) N/A; Department of Mathematics; Mengi, Emre; Faculty Member; Department of Mathematics; College of Sciences; 113760
    Optimization of convex functions subject to eigenvalue constraints is intriguing because of peculiar analytical properties of eigenvalue functions and is of practical interest because of a wide range of applications in fields such as structural design and control theory. Here we focus on the optimization of a linear objective subject to a constraint on the smallest eigenvalue of an analytic and Hermitian matrix-valued function. We propose a numerical approach based on quadratic support functions that overestimate the smallest eigenvalue function globally. the quadratic support functions are derived by employing variational properties of the smallest eigenvalue function over a set of Hermitian matrices. We establish the local convergence of the algorithm under mild assumptions and deduce a precise rate of convergence result by viewing the algorithm as a fixed point iteration. the convergence analysis reveals that the algorithm is immune to the nonsmooth nature of the smallest eigenvalue. We illustrate the practical applicability of the algorithm on the pseudospectral functions.

    Anticyclotomic p-ordinary Iwasawa theory of elliptic modular forms
    (De Gruyter, 2018) Lei, Antonio; Department of Mathematics; Büyükboduk, Kazım; Faculty Member; Department of Mathematics; College of Sciences; N/A
    This is the first in a series of articles where we will study the Iwasawa theory of an elliptic modular form f along the anticyclotomic Z(p)-tower of an imaginary quadratic field K where the prime p splits completely. Our goal in this portion is to prove the Iwasawa main conjecture for suitable twists of f assuming that f is p-ordinary, both in the definite and indefinite setups simultaneously, via an analysis of Beilinson-Flach elements.

    Averages of values of L-series
    (American Mathematical Society (AMS), 2013) Ono, Ken; Department of Mathematics; Alkan, Emre; Faculty Member; Department of Mathematics; College of Sciences; 32803
    We obtain an exact formula for the average of values of L-series over two independent odd characters. The average of any positive moment of values at s = 1 is then expressed in terms of finite cotangent sums subject to congruence conditions. As consequences, bounds on such cotangent sums, limit points for the average of first moment of L-series at s = 1 and the average size of positive moments of character sums related to the class number are deduced.

    Balanced and strongly balanced 4-kite designs
    (Utilitas Mathematica Publishing, 2013) Gionfriddo, Mario; Milazzo, Lorenzo; Department of Mathematics; Küçükçifçi, Selda; Faculty Member; Department of Mathematics; College of Sciences; 105252
    A G-design is called balanced if the degree of each vertex x is a constant. A G-design is called strongly balanced if for every i = 1, 2, ⋯, h, there exists a constant Ci such that dAi(x)= Ci for every vertex x, where AiS are the orbits of the automorphism group of G on its vertex-set and dAi(x) of a vertex is the number of blocks of containing x as an element of Ai. We say that a G-design is simply balanced if it is balanced, but not strongly balanced. In this paper we determine the spectrum of simply balanced and strongly balanced 4-kite designs.

    Balancing the inverted pendulum using position feedback
    (Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 1999) Department of Mathematics; Atay, Fatihcan; Faculty Member; Department of Mathematics; College of Sciences; 253074
    It is shown how to obtain asymptotic stability in second-order undamped systems using time-delay action in the feedback of position. The effect of the delay is similar to derivative feedback in modifying the behavior of the system. Results are given on the selection of the controller parameters both in the absence and the presence of additional delay ill the feedback path. The timelag position feedback is shown to compare favorably with the conventional PD controller in terms of stability. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.

    Big Heegner point Kolyvagin system for a family of modular forms
    (Springer International Publishing Ag, 2014) Department of Mathematics; Büyükboduk, Kazım; Faculty Member; Department of Mathematics; College of Sciences; N/A
    The principal goal of this paper is to develop Kolyvagin's descent to apply with the big Heegner point Euler system constructed by Howard for the big Galois representation attached to a Hida family of elliptic modular forms. In order to achieve this, we interpolate and control the Tamagawa factors attached to each member of the family at bad primes, which should be of independent interest. Using this, we then work out the Kolyvagin descent on the big Heegner point Euler system so as to obtain a big Kolyvagin system that interpolates the collection of Kolyvagin systems obtained by Fouquet for each member of the family individually. This construction has standard applications to Iwasawa theory, which we record at the end.

    Computation of the canonical lifting via division polynomials
    (Unión Matemática Argentina, 2015) Department of Mathematics; Erdoğan, Altan; Teaching Faculty; Department of Mathematics; College of Sciences
    We study the canonical lifting of ordinary elliptic curves over the ring of Witt vectors. We prove that the canonical lifting is compatible with the base field of the given ordinary elliptic curve which was first proved in Finotti, J. Number Theory 130 (2010), 620-638. We also give some results about division polynomials of elliptic curves de fined over the ring of Witt vectors.
