There is a growing awareness toward a slow shifting in the foundation of the thermodynamic laws, from several macroscopic, empirical postulates concerning heat as a form of random motions, to derivable mathematical theorems based on stochastic dynamics of mesoscopic systems. It becomes increasingly clear that a stochastic dynamic description of ...

Individual-based population dynamics articulates stochastic behavior of individuals and considers deterministic equations at the population level as an emergent phenomenon. Using chemical species inside a small aqueous volume (a cell) as an example, we introduce Delbrück-Gillespie birth-and-death process for chemical reactions dynamics. Using t...

It is now well understood that there is a minimal requirement on the channelquality in feedback stabilization via a communication channel. In the case of SISO plant and SISO channel. This minimal channel quality is given in terms of the degree of instability of the plant to be stabilized. For a MIMO system controlled via a MIMO communication cha...

Accurate time stepping of vesicle suspensions is crucial for obtaining stable and accurate simulations. I will describe two algorithms that can be used to accomplish this task. First, a deferred correction method uses a low-order semi-implicit time integrator to construct high-order results. Second, physically conserved quantities are used to ad...

Computer simulations based on the Hybrid Discrete-Continuous(HDC) mathematicalmodel of cancer invasion (Anderson et al., Cell. 2006,127:905)predict that the degree of severityof the tumor microenvironment (tmE) directly impacts on theemergence of invasion. Moreprecisely, harsh ME conditions (e.g., hypoxia, discontinuousmatrix, inflammation) sele...

The role of mathematics in understanding and simulating fluid dynamics and biochemical processes in the physiological and pathological functioning of the human cardiovascular system is becoming more and more crucial. These phenomena are indeed correlated with the origin of some major cardiovascular pathologies, and influence the efficacy of the ...

We give sufficient conditions ensuring that any positive classical solution (u,v) of an elliptic system in the whole n-dimensional space has the symmetry property u=v. As an application, we improve some known results on Sobolev-critical elliptic systems of Schrodinger type. Our techniques apply to some supercritical problems as well. We also obt...

We present a few situations involving a viscous jet or thread,and its deformation under a constraint. We first discuss the case of athread initially horizontal that deforms in the field of gravity (theso-called viscous catenary first described by Mahadevan). Then, weconsider a jet hitting a bath of the same liquid: here again, we show thatunders...

Since Worthington, many situations generated by impacts in liquids weredocumented and explored. In this spirit, we would like to present severalrecent observations related to the behavior of projectiles after they hitdifferent kinds of liquids. We first discuss the impact on soap films, andnaturally extend these observations to foams, focussing ...

Ali Salbri was born in Tunis, Tunisia in 1959. In 1981 Ali moved to Paris, France to study and returned home in 1983. He spent several years in Brussels and Oslo before moving back to Tunisia in 1989. In 1990 obtained a Canadian tourist visa and attempted to move there, spending 6 months in Berkeley. In 1995, after not being allowed to move to C...

The tree structure is currently the accepted paradigm to represent evolutionary relationships between organisms, species or other taxa. However, horizontal, or reticulate, genomic exchanges are pervasive in nature and confound characterization of phylogenetic trees. Drawing from algebraic topology, we present a unique evolutionary framework that...

Since the development of the laser some 40 years ago, a long standing dream has been to utilize this special source of radiation to manipulate dynamical events at the atomic and molecular scales. Hints that this goal may become a reality began to emerge in the 1990's, due to a confluence of concepts and technologies involving (a) control theory,...
