In many scientific areas, a deterministic model (e.g., a differential equation) is equipped with parameters. In practice, these parameters might be uncertain or noisy, and so an honest model should provide a statistical description of the quantity of interest. Underlying this computational question is a fundamental one - If two "similar" functio...

We present a simple one-dimensional equation modeling slenderjets of a Newtonian fluid in Stokes flow. It would be desirable to have a prooflinking the asymptotics of surface tension driven breakup to the behavior of theinitial condition near the thinnest point of the jet. Despite the apparent simplicity of the equations, the problem is open. I ...

A vector calculus for nonlocal operators is developed, including the definition of nonlocal divergence, gradient, and curl operators and the derivation of the corresponding adjoint operators. Nonlocal analogs of several theorems and identities of the vector calculus for differential operators are also presented. Relationships between the nonloca...

I shall study the cubic Szegö equation, a nonlinear pseudodifferential evolution equation, on the space of functions with bounded mean oscillation on the circle. Important tools for this study are the John-Nirenberg estimate, the Nirenberg-Nishida abstract form of the Cauchy-Kowalevskaya theorem, and the Nash-Moser theorem.
