We use the operator inference approach to model reduction that poses the problem of learning low-dimensional model terms as a regression of state space data and corresponding time derivatives by minimizing the residual of reduced system equations. Standard operator inference models perform well with accurate training data that are dense in time, but producing stable and accurate models when the state data are noisy and/or sparse in time remains a challenge. Another challenge is the lack of uncertainty estimation for the predictions from the operator inference models. Our approach addresses these challenges by incorporating Gaussian process surrogates into the operator inference framework to (1) probabilistically describe uncertainties in the state predictions and (2) procure analytical time derivative estimates with quantified uncertainties. The formulation leads to a generalized least-squares regression and, ultimately, reduced-order models that are described probabilistically with a closed-form expression for the posterior distribution of the operators. The resulting probabilistic surrogate model propagates uncertainties from the observed state data to reduced-order predictions. We demonstrate the method is effective for constructing low-dimensional models of two nonlinear partial differential equations representing a compressible flow and a nonlinear diffusion–reaction process, as well as for estimating the parameters of a low-dimensional system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations representing compartmental models in epidemiology.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":20050,"journal":{"name":"Physica D: Nonlinear Phenomena","volume":"475 ","pages":"Article 134572"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2025-02-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143511277","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The high-dimensional Kuramoto model is one of the most typical continuous system models for studying synchronization phenomena in multi-individual systems. Due to Lohe’s remarkable work on models of multi-individual systems, the high-dimensional Kuramoto models are also called the Lohe models, and the Lohe Hermitian sphere (LHS) model is a generalization of the Lohe models in the complex space. In this paper, we study the exponential synchronization problem of the LHS models based on directed graphs. By introducing the synchronization error function, we have developed a set of synchronization error dynamic equations for the identical oscillators using matrix Riccati differential equations. The system of synchronization error dynamic equations is studied, a total error function is constructed, and exponential synchronization of the LHS model on the unit complex sphere is demonstrated. An approximate linearization of the error dynamics equations is performed, to obtain the exponential decay rate of the system. For the LHS model with nonidentical oscillators on the unit complex sphere, using the synchronization error function, it is shown that practical synchronization can be achieved when the connection graph of the system is strongly connected.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":20050,"journal":{"name":"Physica D: Nonlinear Phenomena","volume":"475 ","pages":"Article 134578"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2025-02-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143510673","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

According to the dispersion relation, the generalized KB equation includes the generalized good-KB equation and generalized bad-KB equation, respectively. Firstly, the periodic wave solutions and the corresponding Whitham equations associated with the generalized bad-KB equation are given by Flaschka–Forest–McLaughlin approach. Secondly, the basic rarefaction wave structure and dispersive shock wave structure are described by analyzing the zero-genus and one-genus Whitham equations. Then the complete classification of solutions to Riemann problem of the generalized bad-KB equation is provided, and eighteen different cases are classified, including five critical cases. The distributions of Riemann invariants and the evolutions of self-similar states for each component are demonstrated in detail. It is shown that the exact soliton solution is in good agreement with the soliton edge of the modulated dispersive shock wave. Moreover, it is observed that the phase portraits in each case establish a consistent relationship with the behavior of the modulated solutions. Finally, for the generalized good-KB equation, a new type of discontinuous initial-value problem with constant-periodic wave boundaries is explored, and some novel modulated solutions with trigonometric shock waves are found. It is remarked that such trigonometric shock waves are absent in the generalized bad-KB equation because the small amplitude limits of the periodic waves are not trigonometric functions but constants. The results in this work reveal exotic wave-breaking phenomena in shallow water and provide a feasible way to investigate the discontinuous initial-value problem of nonlinear dispersive equations.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":20050,"journal":{"name":"Physica D: Nonlinear Phenomena","volume":"474 ","pages":"Article 134573"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2025-02-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143420683","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
