This work describes the use of Entropic Optimal Transport and the associated Sinkhorn algorithm [Cuturi, 2013] to solve it numerically. As the reflector modelling is based on the Kantorovich potentials , several questions arise. First, on the convergence of the discrete entropic approximation and here we follow the recent work of [Berman, 2017] and in particular the imposed discretization requirements therein. Secondly, the correction of the Entropic bias induced by the Entropic OT, as discussed in particular in [Ramdas et al., 2017] [Genevay et al., 2018] [Feydy et al., 2018], is another important tool to achieve reasonable results. The paper reviews the necessary mathematical and numerical tools needed to produce and discuss the obtained numerical results. We find that Sinkhorn algorithm may be adapted, at least in simple academic cases, to the resolution of the far field reflector problem. Sinkhorn canonical extension to continuous potentials is needed to generate continuous reflector approximations. The use of Sinkhorn divergences [Feydy et al., 2018] is useful to mitigate the entropic bias.","PeriodicalId":18467,"journal":{"name":"Methods and applications of analysis","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2020-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70489472","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Lescot","doi":"10.4310/maa.2020.v27.n1.a2","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.4310/maa.2020.v27.n1.a2","url":null,"abstract":"We determine the isovectors of the backward heat equation with quadratic potential term in the space variable. This generalize the calculations of Lescot-Zambrini (cf.[4]). These results first appeared in the first author’s PhD thesis (Rouen, 2013). 1. Backward Equation The fundamental equation of Euclidean Quantum Mechanics of Zambrini is the backward heat equation with potential V (t, q):  θ ∂η u ∂t = − θ 2 ∂η u ∂q2 + V (t, q)η V u (C (V ) 1 ) η u (0, q) = u(q) where t represents the time variable, q the space variable, and θ is a real parameter, strictly positive (in physics, θ = √ ~). This equation is not well–posed in general, but existence and uniqueness of a solution are insured whenever the initial condition u belongs to the set of analytic vectors for the operator appearing on the right–hand side of the equation (see e.g. [1], Lemma 4, p. 429). We shall denote by ηu(t, q) = η 0 u(t, q) the solution of the backward heat equation with null potential :  θ 2 ∂ηu ∂t = − θ 2 ∂ηu ∂q2 (C (0) 1 ) ηu(0, q) = η 0 u(0, q) = u(q). The authors wish to thank the referees for constructive comments. 1.1. Generalization of results due to Lescot-Zambrini (cf.[4]). Theorem 1.1. Let a(t), b(t) and c(t) be continuous functions and V (t, q) = a(t)q+ b(t)q + c(t). For all initial conditions u, the solution η u (t, q) of: θ ∂η u ∂t = − 4 2 ∂η u ∂q2 + V (t, q)η u (C (V ) 1 ) such that η u (0, q) = u(q) is given by: η u (t, q) = φ1(t, q) ηu (φ2(t, q), φ3(t, q)) , (1.1) Date: 01 November 2019. 1 2 MOHAMAD HOUDA & PAUL LESCOT where: ηu(t, q) = η 0 u(t, q) and φ1(t, q), φ2(t, q), φ3(t, q) only depend on a(t), b(t) and c(t) (via formulas (1.7), (1.8), (1.9), (1.11), (1.12), (1.13) and (1.14)). Proof. We shall make formula 1.1 explicit with the following initial conditions:  φ1(0, q) = 1 φ2(0, q) = 0 φ3(0, q) = q. In this case : η u (0, q) = ηu(0, q) = u(q). We now differentiate formula 1.1 with respect to t and q; ηu and its derivatives will be taken in (φ2(t, q), φ3(t, q)). ∂η u ∂t = ∂φ1 ∂t ηu + φ1( ∂ηu ∂t ∂φ2 ∂t + ∂ηu ∂q ∂φ3 ∂t ) , ∂η u ∂q = ∂φ1 ∂q ηu + φ1( ∂ηu ∂t ∂φ2 ∂q + ∂ηu ∂q ∂φ3 ∂q ) , ∂η u ∂q2 = ∂φ1 ∂q2 ηu + 2 ∂φ1 ∂q ( ∂ηu ∂t ∂φ2 ∂q + ∂ηu ∂q ∂φ3 ∂q ) + φ1 [ ∂ηu ∂t2 ( ∂φ2 ∂q ) 2 + ∂ηu ∂q2 ( ∂φ3 ∂q ) 2 + 2 ∂ηu ∂t∂q ∂φ2 ∂q ∂φ3 ∂q + ∂ηu ∂t ∂φ2 ∂q2 + ∂ηu ∂q ∂φ3 ∂q2 ] and V (t, q)η u = a(t)q 2 φ1 ηu + b(t)q φ1 ηu + c(t) φ1 ηu. So, it’s enough to have: θφ1 ∂φ2 ∂t − θφ1( ∂φ3 ∂q ) 2 + θ 2 (2 ∂φ1 ∂q ∂φ2 ∂q + ∂φ2 ∂q2 ) = 0 (1.2) θ 2 φ1( ∂φ2 ∂q ) 2 = 0 (1.3) θφ1 ∂φ3 ∂t + θ 2 (2 ∂φ1 ∂q ∂φ3 ∂q + φ1 ∂φ3 ∂q2 ) = 0 (1.4) θ ∂φ2 ∂q ∂φ3 ∂q = 0 (1.5) θ ∂φ1 ∂t + θ 2 ∂φ1 ∂q2 − φ1 ( a(t)q + b(t)q + c(t) ) = 0 . (1.6) Two calculates concerned the isovectors of backward heat equation with potential term 3 As φ1(0, q) = 1, the equation (1.3) gives us: (2 ∂q ) 2 = 0, then φ2 = φ2(t) and (1.5) is then automatically satisfied. So, the equation (1.2) implies: φ1(t, q)( ∂φ2 ∂t − (3 ∂q )) = 0, then for all (t, q) : ∂φ2 ∂t = ( ∂φ3 ∂q ) 2","PeriodicalId":18467,"journal":{"name":"Methods and applications of analysis","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2020-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70488984","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

First, we prove that any affine connection $Gamma$, with components $Gamma in L^{2p}$ and components of its Riemann curvature ${rm Riem}(Gamma)$ in $L^p$, in some coordinate system, can be smoothed by coordinate transformation to optimal regularity, $Gamma in W^{1,p}$ (one derivative smoother than the curvature), $p>max{n/2,2}$, dimension $ngeq 2$. For Lorentzian metrics in General Relativity this implies that shock wave solutions of the Einstein-Euler equations are non-singular -- geodesic curves, locally inertial coordinates and the Newtonian limit, all exist in a classical sense, and the Einstein equations hold in the strong sense. The proof is based on an $L^p$ existence theory for the Regularity Transformation (RT) equations, a system of elliptic partial differential equations (introduced by the authors) which determine the Jacobians of the regularizing coordinate transformations. Secondly, this existence theory gives the first extension of Uhlenbeck compactness from Riemannian metrics, to general affine connections bounded in $L^infty$, with curvature in $L^{p}$, $p>n$, including semi-Riemannian metrics, and Lorentzian metric connections of relativistic Physics. We interpret this as a ``geometric'' improvement of the generalized Div-Curl Lemma. Our theory shows that Uhlenbeck compactness and optimal regularity are pure logical consequences of the rule which defines how connections transform from one coordinate system to another -- what one could take to be the ``starting assumption of geometry''.","PeriodicalId":18467,"journal":{"name":"Methods and applications of analysis","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2019-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42464386","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
