Abstract

We propose a Bayesian framework for feedback boundary control of hyperbolic balance laws. The method propagates a probability distribution over feedback parameters using Lyapunov decay estimates as a likelihood. For linear models, it recovers available analytical stability results and extends to nonlinear regimes where theory is limited. Using first-order local Lax-Friedrichs (LLF) discretizations, we validate the approach on the decoupled wave system and the linearized Saint-Venant equations, reproducing known stability intervals and mixed boundary couplings. We then treat nonlinear and stochastic problems, including the nonlinear Saint-Venant system, one- and two-dimensional Burgers equations, Burgers equation with random initial data, and nonconservative perturbations with source terms, and show that the inferred stability domains are robust with respect to the indicator and the prior. Finally, we demonstrate transfer to a second-order semi-discrete LLF scheme and to a two-parameter feedback model for laser powder bed fusion with power regulation.

Fully spectral scheme for the linear BGK equation on the whole space

In this article, we design a fully spectral method in both space and velocity for a linear inhomogeneous kinetic equation with mass, momentum and energy conservation. We focus on the linear BGK equation with a confinement potential $Φ$, even if the method could be applied to different collision operators. It is based upon the projection on Hermite polynomials in velocity and orthonormal polynomials with respect to the weight $e^{-$Φ$}$ in space. The potential $Φ$ is assumed to be a polynomial. It is, to the author's knowledge, the first scheme which preserves hypocoercive behavior in addition to the conservation laws. These different properties are illustrated numerically on both quadratic and double well potential.

Inverse inequalities for kernel-based approximation on bounded domains and Riemannian manifolds

This paper establishes inverse inequalities for kernel-based approximation spaces defined on bounded Lipschitz domains in $\mathbb{R}^d$ and compact Riemannian manifolds. While inverse inequalities are well-studied for polynomial spaces, their extension to kernel-based trial spaces poses significant challenges. For bounded Lipschitz domains, we extend prior Bernstein inequalities, which only apply to a limited range of Sobolev orders, to the full range of lower and upper orders, and derive Nikolskii inequalities that bound $L_\infty$ norms by $L_2$ norms. For compact Riemannian manifolds, we focus on restricted kernels, which are defined as the restriction of positive definite kernels from the ambient Euclidean space to the manifold, and prove their counterparts.

Error Estimates for Hyperbolic Scaling Limits of Linear Kinetic Models on Networks

This paper studies linear discrete kinetic models on networks and their asymptotic behavior in the small Knudsen number limit. For coupling conditions at an n-edge junction under a symmetric formulation, we introduce a change of variables that reformulates the system into n independent initial-boundary value problems. The asymptotic expansions are then constructed and rigorously justified by deriving an error estimate based on the energy method.
