We study the community detection problem on a Gaussian mixture model, in which vertices are divided into k\geq 2$k\geq 2$ distinct communities. The major difference in our model is that the intensities for Gaussian perturbations are different for different entries in the observation matrix, and we do not assume that every community has the same number of vertices. We explicitly find the necessary and sufficient conditions for the exact recovery of the maximum likelihood estimation, which can give a sharp phase transition for the exact recovery even though the Gaussian perturbations are not identically distributed; see Section 7. Applications include the community detection on hypergraphs.

A wake model is pursued for potential flow past a submerged, finite-length plate that is perpendicular to a uniform, horizontal stream bounded above by a free surface. The effects of gravity are included along the free surface. The approach is to adopt an open-wake model such that the wake boundaries become parallel to the undisturbed stream at some (unknown) point downstream. Boundary integral equations are formed and then discretised along the wake boundaries and free surface in order to obtain a solution numerically. In terms of the dependency of the solution on various parameters, the problem will be formulated in two ways. First, for a given Froude number and ratio of the length of the vertical plate to the draft (the depth of the bottom of the vertical plate relative to the undisturbed free surface), the effect of the wake underpressure coefficient on the size of the wake will be considered. Then, the problem will be discussed where we instead (more naturally) fix the Froude number, draft and length of the vertical, submerged plate. The dependencies of the solution on these parameters will be analysed regarding the effects on several factors, including the size of the wake, the relative lengths of the upper and lower wake boundaries, and the resulting wake underpressure coefficient.

The purpose of the paper is twofold. First, we show that partial-data transmission eigenfunctions associated with a conductive boundary condition vanish locally around a polyhedral or conic corner in \mathbb{R}^n$\mathbb{R}^n$, n=2,3$n=2,3$. Second, we apply the spectral property to the geometrical inverse scattering problem of determining the shape as well as its boundary impedance parameter of a conductive scatterer, independent of its medium content, by a single far-field measurement. We establish several new unique recovery results. The results extend the relevant ones in [26] in two directions: first, we consider a more general geometric setup where both polyhedral and conic corners are investigated, whereas in [26] only polyhedral corners are concerned; second, we significantly relax the regularity assumptions in [26] which is particularly useful for the geometrical inverse problem mentioned above. We develop novel technical strategies to achieve these new results.

In a smoothly bounded domain \Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^n$\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^n$, n\ge 1$n\ge 1$, this manuscript considers the homogeneous Neumann boundary problem for the chemotaxis system

\begin{eqnarray*} \left \{ \begin{array}{l} u_t = \Delta u - \nabla \cdot (u\nabla v), \\[5pt] v_t = \Delta v + u - \alpha uv, \end{array} \right . \end{eqnarray*} $$\begin{eqnarray*} \left \{ \begin{array}{l} u_t = \Delta u - \nabla \cdot (u\nabla v), \\[5pt] v_t = \Delta v + u - \alpha uv, \end{array} \right . \end{eqnarray*}$$

It is shown that there exists \delta _\star =\delta _\star (n)\gt 0$\delta _\star =\delta _\star (n)\gt 0$ such that for any given \alpha \ge \frac{1}{\delta _\star }$\alpha \ge \frac{1}{\delta _\star }$ and for any suitably regular initial data satisfying v(\cdot, 0)\le \delta _\star$v(\cdot, 0)\le \delta _\star$, this problem admits a unique classical solution that stabilizes to the constant equilibrium (\frac{1}{|\Omega |}\int _\Omega u(\cdot, 0), \, \frac{1}{\alpha })$(\frac{1}{|\Omega |}\int _\Omega u(\cdot, 0), \, \frac{1}{\alpha })$ in the large time limit.

This work describes a hyperbolic model for cell-cell repulsion with population dynamics. We consider the pressure produced by a population of cells to describe their motion. We assume that cells try to avoid crowded areas and prefer locally empty spaces far away from the carrying capacity. Here, our main goal is to prove the existence of travelling waves with continuous profiles. This article complements our previous results about sharp travelling waves. We conclude the paper with numerical simulations of the PDE problem, illustrating such a result. An application to wound healing also illustrates the importance of travelling waves with a continuous and discontinuous profile.

We address the problem of optimal transport with a quadratic cost functional and a constraint on the flux through a constriction along the path. The constriction, conceptually represented by a toll station, limits the flow rate across. We provide a precise formulation which, in addition, is amenable to generalization in higher dimensions. We work out in detail the case of transport in one dimension by proving existence and uniqueness of solution. Under suitable regularity assumptions, we give an explicit construction of the transport plan. Generalization of flux constraints to higher dimensions and possible extensions of the theory are discussed.

This article studies the dynamical behaviour of classical solutions of a hyperbolic system of balance laws, derived from a chemotaxis model with logarithmic sensitivity, with time-dependent boundary conditions. It is shown that under suitable assumptions on the boundary data, solutions starting in the H^2$H^2$-space exist globally in time and the differences between the solutions and their corresponding boundary data converge to zero as time goes to infinity. There is no smallness restriction on the magnitude of the initial perturbations. Moreover, numerical simulations show that the assumptions on the boundary data are necessary for the above-mentioned results to hold true. In addition, numerical results indicate that the solutions converge asymptotically to time-periodic states if the boundary data are time-periodic.
