The concept of a clone belongs to the algebraic main concepts and has important applications in Computer Science. A clone can also be regarded as a many-sorted algebra where the sorts are the n-ary operations defined on set A for all natural numbers n >= 1 and the operations are the so-called superposition operations S-m(n) for natural numbers m, n >= 1 and the projection operations as nullary operations. Clones generalize monoids of transformations defined on set A and satisfy three clone axioms. The most important axiom is the superassociative law, a generalization of the associative law. If the superposition operations are partial, i.e. not everywhere defined, instead of the many-sorted clone algebra, one obtains partial many-sorted algebras, the partial clones. Linear terms, linear tree languages or linear formulas form partial clones. In this paper, we give a survey on partial clones and their properties.

With transdimensional inversion algorithms such as the reversible-jump Markov chain Monte Carlo (rjMCMC), it is possible to vary this number during the inversion and to interpret the observations in a more flexible way. Geoscience imaging applications use this behaviour to automatically adjust model resolution to the inhomogeneities of the investigated system, while keeping the model parameters on an optimal level. The rjMCMC algorithm produces an ensemble as result, a set of model realizations, which together represent the posterior probability distribution of the investigated problem. The realizations are evolved via sequential updates from a randomly chosen initial solution and converge toward the target posterior distribution of the inverse problem. Up to a point in the chain, the realizations may be strongly biased by the initial model, and must be discarded from the final ensemble. With convergence assessment techniques, this point in the chain can be identified. Transdimensional MCMC methods produce ensembles that are not suitable for classic convergence assessment techniques because of the changes in parameter numbers. To overcome this hurdle, three solutions are introduced to convert model realizations to a common dimensionality while maintaining the statistical characteristics of the ensemble. A scalar, a vector and a matrix representation for models is presented, inferred from tomographic subsurface investigations, and three classic convergence assessment techniques are applied on them. It is shown that appropriately chosen scalar conversions of the models could retain similar statistical ensemble properties as geologic projections created by rasterization.

The estimation of these properties is usually done by fitting temperature variations calculated by thermophysical models to infrared observations. For multiple free model parameters, traditional methods such as least-squares fitting or Markov chain Monte Carlo methods become computationally too expensive. Consequently, the simultaneous estimation of several thermophysical parameters, together with their corresponding uncertainties and correlations, is often not computationally feasible and the analysis is usually reduced to fitting one or two parameters. Data assimilation (DA) methods have been shown to be robust while sufficiently accurate and computationally affordable even for a large number of parameters. This paper will introduce a standard sequential DA method, the ensemble square root filter, for thermophysical modelling of asteroid surfaces. This method is used to re-analyse infrared observations of the MARA instrument, which measured the diurnal temperature variation of a single boulder on the surface of near-Earth asteroid (162173) Ryugu. The thermal inertia is estimated to be 295 +/- 18 Jm(-2) K-1 s(-1/2), while all five free parameters of the initial analysis are varied and estimated simultaneously. Based on this thermal inertia estimate the thermal conductivity of the boulder is estimated to be between 0.07 and 0.12,Wm(-1) K-1 and the porosity to be between 0.30 and 0.52. For the first time in thermophysical parameter derivation, correlations and uncertainties of all free model parameters are incorporated in the estimation procedure that is more than 5000 times more efficient than a comparable parameter sweep.

In functorial field theory language, this means that the theory is twisted, which gives rise to an anomaly theory. In this paper, we give a detailed construction of this anomaly theory, as a functor that sends manifolds to infinite-dimensional Clifford algebras and bordisms to bimodules.

The use of orally inhaled drugs for treating lung diseases is appealing since they have the potential for lung selectivity, i.e. high exposure at the site of action -the lung- without excessive side effects. However, the degree of lung selectivity depends on a large number of factors, including physiochemical properties of drug molecules, patient disease state, and inhalation devices. To predict the impact of these factors on drug exposure and thereby to understand the characteristics of an optimal drug for inhalation, we develop a predictive mathematical framework (a "pharmacokinetic model"). In contrast to previous approaches, our model allows combining knowledge from different sources appropriately and its predictions were able to adequately predict different sets of clinical data. Finally, we compare the impact of different factors and find that the most important factors are the size of the inhaled particles, the affinity of the drug to the lung tissue, as well as the rate of drug dissolution in the lung. In contrast to the common belief, the solubility of a drug in the lining fluids is not found to be relevant. These findings are important to understand how inhaled drugs should be designed to achieve best treatment results in patients.
The fate of orally inhaled drugs is determined by pulmonary pharmacokinetic processes such as particle deposition, pulmonary drug dissolution, and mucociliary clearance. Even though each single process has been systematically investigated, a quantitative understanding on the interaction of processes remains limited and therefore identifying optimal drug and formulation characteristics for orally inhaled drugs is still challenging. To investigate this complex interplay, the pulmonary processes can be integrated into mathematical models. However, existing modeling attempts considerably simplify these processes or are not systematically evaluated against (clinical) data. In this work, we developed a mathematical framework based on physiologically-structured population equations to integrate all relevant pulmonary processes mechanistically. A tailored numerical resolution strategy was chosen and the mechanistic model was evaluated systematically against data from different clinical studies. Without adapting the mechanistic model or estimating kinetic parameters based on individual study data, the developed model was able to predict simultaneously (i) lung retention profiles of inhaled insoluble particles, (ii) particle size-dependent pharmacokinetics of inhaled monodisperse particles, (iii) pharmacokinetic differences between inhaled fluticasone propionate and budesonide, as well as (iv) pharmacokinetic differences between healthy volunteers and asthmatic patients. Finally, to identify the most impactful optimization criteria for orally inhaled drugs, the developed mechanistic model was applied to investigate the impact of input parameters on both the pulmonary and systemic exposure. Interestingly, the solubility of the inhaled drug did not have any relevant impact on the local and systemic pharmacokinetics. Instead, the pulmonary dissolution rate, the particle size, the tissue affinity, and the systemic clearance were the most impactful potential optimization parameters. In the future, the developed prediction framework should be considered a powerful tool for identifying optimal drug and formulation characteristics.

So called filters are of special interest. One is inter- ested in computing the probability distribution of the state of a physical process in the future, given (possibly) imperfect measurements. This is done using Bayes’ rule. The first part focuses on hybrid filters, that bridge between the two main groups of filters: ensemble Kalman filters (EnKF) and particle filters. The first are a group of very stable and computationally cheap algorithms, but they request certain strong assumptions. Particle filters on the other hand are more generally applicable, but computationally expensive and as such not always suitable for high dimensional systems. Therefore it exists a need to combine both groups to benefit from the advantages of each. This can be achieved by splitting the likelihood function, when assimilating a new observation and treating one part of it with an EnKF and the other part with a particle filter. The second part of this thesis deals with the application of Data Assimilation to multi-scale models and the problems that arise from that. One of the main areas of application for Data Assimilation techniques is predicting the development of oceans and the atmosphere. These processes involve several scales and often balance rela- tions between the state variables. The use of Data Assimilation procedures most often violates relations of that kind, which leads to unrealistic and non-physical pre- dictions of the future development of the process eventually. This work discusses the inclusion of a post-processing step after each assimilation step, in which a minimi- sation problem is solved, which penalises the imbalance. This method is tested on four different models, two Hamiltonian systems and two spatially extended models, which adds even more difficulties. N2 - Diese Dissertation beschäftigt sich mit Daten Assimilation - die Kombination von Modellvorhersagen mit Beobachtungen. Sogenannte Filter sind dabei von beson- derem Interesse. Diese Algorithmen berechnen die Wahrscheinlichkeitsverteilung des Zustandes eines physikalischen Prozesses in der Zukunft unter der Bedingung, dass wir (meist) fehlerbehaftete Messungen vorliegen haben. Der erste Teil bezieht sich auf Hybridfilter, welche eine Brücke zwischen den beiden Hauptgruppen von Filtern schlagen: Ensemble-Kalman-Filter (EnKF) und Teilchenfilter. Die erst- genannten sind sehr stabil und rechnerisch unaufwändig, aber basieren auf recht starken Voraussetzungen. Teilchenfilter hingegen sind allgemeiner aber recheninten- siv und daher nicht immer geeignet für höherdimensionale Systeme. Daher besteht die Notwen- digkeit beide Gruppen zu kombinieren um von den Vorteilen beider Filter zu prof- itieren. Dies kann erreicht werden, indem man, wenn eine Beobachtung assimiliert werden soll, die Likelihood-Funktion in zwei Teile spaltet und auf den einen Teil einen EnKF und auf den anderen einen Teilchenfilter anwendet. Der zweite Teil dieser Arbeit befasst sich mit der Anwendung von Daten Assimilation auf mehrskalige Modelle und die Probleme die daraus entstehen. Eines der Haup- tanwendungsgebiete für Daten Assimilation ist die Vorhersage der Entwicklung von Ozeanen und der Atmosphäre. Diese Prozesse finden auf mehreren Skalen statt und häufig bestehen Balancerelationen zwischen den Zustandsvariablen. Die Nutzung von Daten Assimilationstechniken zerstört diese Beziehungen häufig, was schließlich zu unrealistischen und unphysikalischen Vorhersagen führt. In dieser Dissertation wird vorgeschlagen, nach jedem Assimilationsschritt ein Minimierungsproblem zu lösen, welches die Imbalance als Strafterm beinhaltet. Diese Methode wird an vier verschiedenen Modellen getestet, zwei Hamiltonische Systeme und zwei Modelle mit räumlicher Ausdehnung, was zusätzliche Schwierigkeiten schafft.

Journal of statistical physics N2 - We construct marked Gibbs point processes in R-d under quite general assumptions. Firstly, we allow for interaction functionals that may be unbounded and whose range is not assumed to be uniformly bounded. Indeed, our typical interaction admits an a.s. finite but random range. Secondly, the random marks-attached to the locations in R-d-belong to a general normed space G. They are not bounded, but their law should admit a super-exponential moment. The approach used here relies on the so-called entropy method and large-deviation tools in order to prove tightness of a family of finite-volume Gibbs point processes. An application to infinite-dimensional interacting diffusions is also presented.

Here, we present a SV candidate model for the 13th IGRF that stems from a sequential ensemble data assimilation approach (EnKF). The ensemble consists of a number of parallel-running 3D-dynamo simulations. The assimilated data are geomagnetic field snapshots covering the years 1840 to 2000 from the COV-OBS.x1 model and for 2001 to 2020 from the Kalmag model. A spectral covariance localization method, considering the couplings between spherical harmonics of the same equatorial symmetry and same azimuthal wave number, allows decreasing the ensemble size to about a 100 while maintaining the stability of the assimilation. The quality of 5-year predictions is tested for the past two decades. These tests show that the assimilation scheme is able to reconstruct the overall SV evolution. They also suggest that a better 5-year forecast is obtained keeping the SV constant compared to the dynamically evolving SV. However, the quality of the dynamical forecast steadily improves over the full assimilation window (180 years). We therefore propose the instantaneous SV estimate for 2020 from our assimilation as a candidate model for the IGRF-13. The ensemble approach provides uncertainty estimates, which closely match the residual differences with respect to the IGRF-13. Longer term predictions for the evolution of the main magnetic field features over a 50-year range are also presented. We observe the further decrease of the axial dipole at a mean rate of 8 nT/year as well as a deepening and broadening of the South Atlantic Anomaly. The magnetic dip poles are seen to approach an eccentric dipole configuration.

The central idea of ALDI is to run an ensemble of particles with their empirical covariance serving as a preconditioner for their underlying Langevin dynamics. ALDI does not require taking the inverse or square root of the empirical covariance matrix, which enables application to high-dimensional sampling problems. The theoretical properties of ALDI are studied in terms of nondegeneracy and ergodicity. Furthermore, we study its connections to diffusion on Riemannian manifolds and Wasserstein gradient flows. Bayesian inference serves as a main application area for ALDI. In case of a forward problem with additive Gaussian measurement errors, ALDI allows for a gradient-free approximation in the spirit of the ensemble Kalman filter. A computational comparison between gradient-free and gradient-based ALDI is provided for a PDE constrained Bayesian inverse problem.

A decomposition of the state space into coherent sets is a popular way to reveal this essential macroscopic evolution. To compute coherent sets from an aperiodic time-dependent dynamical system we consider the relevant transfer operators and their infinitesimal generators on an augmented space-time manifold. This space-time generator approach avoids trajectory integration and creates a convenient linearization of the aperiodic evolution. This linearization can be further exploited to create a simple and effective spectral optimization methodology for diminishing or enhancing coherence. We obtain explicit solutions for these optimization problems using Lagrange multipliers and illustrate this technique by increasing and decreasing mixing of spatial regions through small velocity field perturbations.

Although broadly used, they allow for analytical treatment only in limited settings, and often it is inevitable to resort to numerical solutions. Here, we develop a computational approach for simulating the time evolution of Fokker-Planck solutions in terms of a mean field limit of an interacting particle system. The interactions between particles are determined by the gradient of the logarithm of the particle density, approximated here by a novel statistical estimator. The performance of our method shows promising results, with more accurate and less fluctuating statistics compared to direct stochastic simulations of comparable particle number. Taken together, our framework allows for effortless and reliable particle-based simulations of Fokker-Planck equations in low and moderate dimensions. The proposed gradient-log-density estimator is also of independent interest, for example, in the context of optimal control.

Diese Aussage ist äquivalent zur Existenz einer Lösung einer bestimmten semilinearen elliptischen Differentialgleichung, der Yamabe-Gleichung. 1968 fand Trudinger einen Fehler in seinem Beweis und infolgedessen beschäftigten sich viele Mathematiker mit diesem nach Yamabe benannten Yamabe-Problem. In den 80er Jahren konnte durch die Arbeiten von Trudinger, Aubin und Schoen gezeigt werden, dass diese Aussage tatsächlich zutrifft. Dadurch ergeben sich viele Vorteile, z.B. kann beim Analysieren von konform invarianten partiellen Differentialgleichungen auf kompakten Riemannschen Mannigfaltigkeiten die Skalarkrümmung als konstant vorausgesetzt werden. Es stellt sich nun die Frage, ob die entsprechende Aussage auch auf Lorentz-Mannigfaltigkeiten gilt. Das Lorentz'sche Yamabe Problem lautet somit: Existiert zu einer gegebenen räumlich kompakten global-hyperbolischen Lorentz-Mannigfaltigkeit (M,g) eine zu g konform äquivalente Metrik mit konstanter Skalarkrümmung? Das Ziel dieser Arbeit ist es, dieses Problem zu untersuchen. Bei der sich aus dieser Fragestellung ergebenden Yamabe-Gleichung handelt es sich um eine semilineare Wellengleichung, deren Lösung eine positive glatte Funktion ist und aus der sich der konforme Faktor ergibt. Um die für die Behandlung des Yamabe-Problems benötigten Grundlagen so allgemein wie möglich zu halten, wird im ersten Teil dieser Arbeit die lokale Existenztheorie für beliebige semilineare Wellengleichungen für Schnitte auf Vektorbündeln im Rahmen eines Cauchy-Problems entwickelt. Hierzu wird der Umkehrsatz für Banachräume angewendet, um mithilfe von bereits existierenden Existenzergebnissen zu linearen Wellengleichungen, Existenzaussagen zu semilinearen Wellengleichungen machen zu können. Es wird bewiesen, dass, falls die Nichtlinearität bestimmte Bedingungen erfüllt, eine fast zeitglobale Lösung des Cauchy-Problems für kleine Anfangsdaten sowie eine zeitlokale Lösung für beliebige Anfangsdaten existiert. Der zweite Teil der Arbeit befasst sich mit der Yamabe-Gleichung auf global-hyperbolischen Lorentz-Mannigfaltigkeiten. Zuerst wird gezeigt, dass die Nichtlinearität der Yamabe-Gleichung die geforderten Bedingungen aus dem ersten Teil erfüllt, so dass, falls die Skalarkrümmung der gegebenen Metrik nahe an einer Konstanten liegt, kleine Anfangsdaten existieren, so dass die Yamabe-Gleichung eine fast zeitglobale Lösung besitzt. Mithilfe von Energieabschätzungen wird anschließend für 4-dimensionale global-hyperbolische Lorentz-Mannigfaltigkeiten gezeigt, dass unter der Annahme, dass die konstante Skalarkrümmung der konform äquivalenten Metrik nichtpositiv ist, eine zeitglobale Lösung der Yamabe-Gleichung existiert, die allerdings nicht notwendigerweise positiv ist. Außerdem wird gezeigt, dass, falls die H2-Norm der Skalarkrümmung bezüglich der gegebenen Metrik auf einem kompakten Zeitintervall auf eine bestimmte Weise beschränkt ist, die Lösung positiv auf diesem Zeitintervall ist. Hierbei wird ebenfalls angenommen, dass die konstante Skalarkrümmung der konform äquivalenten Metrik nichtpositiv ist. Falls zusätzlich hierzu gilt, dass die Skalarkrümmung bezüglich der gegebenen Metrik negativ ist und die Metrik gewisse Bedingungen erfüllt, dann ist die Lösung für alle Zeiten in einem kompakten Zeitintervall positiv, auf dem der Gradient der Skalarkrümmung auf eine bestimmte Weise beschränkt ist. In beiden Fällen folgt unter den angeführten Bedingungen die Existenz einer zeitglobalen positiven Lösung, falls M = I x Σ für ein beschränktes offenes Intervall I ist. Zum Schluss wird für M = R x Σ ein Beispiel für die Nichtexistenz einer globalen positiven Lösung angeführt. N2 - Yamabe claimed in 1960 that he had proven the following theorem: Any Riemannian metric g on a compact smooth manifold M of dimension n ≥ 3 is conformal to a metric with constant scalar curvature. An equivalent formulation of this theorem is the existence of a solution to a certain semilinear elliptic differential equation, the so-called Yamabe equation. In 1968 Trudinger found a mistake in Yamabe's paper and consequently many mathematicians dealt with this so-called Yamabe problem. In the 80s Trudinger, Aubin and Shoen were able to fix the mistake and prove that Yamabe's theorem was indeed true. This has many advantages, for example when analyzing a conformally invariant partial differential equation on compact Riemannian manifolds one can assume that the scalar curvature is constant. The question now arises whether the analogous statement on Lorentzian manifolds also applies. The Lorentzian Yamabe Problem can be stated as follows: Given a spatially compact globally hyperbolic Lorentzian manifold (M, g), does there exist a metric conformal to g with constant scalar curvature? The goal of this dissertation is to examine this problem. The Yamabe equation which arises from this question is a semilinear wave equation which must have a positive smooth solution. In the first part of this dissertation the local theory of existence of general semilinear wave equations for sections on vector bundles was developed. For this the inverse function theorem and already existing statements about the existence of solutions to linear wave equation on Lorentzian manifolds were used. It will be proven that there exists an almost global solution to the corresponding Cauchy problem for small initial data as well as a time local solution for arbitrary initial data if the nonlinearity fulfills certain conditions. The second part of the dissertation deals with the Yamabe equation on globally hyperbolic Lorentzian manifolds. First by using the results of the first part it will be proven that there exist initial data such that the Yamabe equation has an almost time global solution if the scalar curvature of the given metric is sufficiently close to a constant. Afterwards by using energy estimates it will be shown in the case of 4-dimensional Lorentzian manifolds that under the assumption that the constant scalar curvature of the conformal metric is non-positive there exists a global smooth solution to the Yamabe equation which is not necessarily positive. But it will be proven that the solution is positive on a compact time interval if the H2-Norm of the scalar curvature of the given metric is bounded on this time interval in a certain way or if the scalar curvature is negative and the gradient of the scalar curvature is bounded in a specific way. In both cases the existence of a global positive smooth solution follows, if the Lorentzian manifold has the form M = I x Σ where I is an open bounded time interval and Σ is a Riemannian manifold. At the end an example for the nonexistence of a global positive solution in the case of M= R x Σ will be presented.

Conventionally, this involves univariable and deterministic stage-damage functions. Recent advancements in the field promote the use of multivariable and probabilistic loss models, which consider variables beyond inundation depth and account for prediction uncertainty. Although companies contribute significantly to total loss figures, novel modeling approaches for companies are lacking. Scarce data and the heterogeneity among companies impede the development of company flood loss models. We present three multivariable flood loss models for companies from the manufacturing, commercial, financial, and service sector that intrinsically quantify prediction uncertainty. Based on object-level loss data (n = 1,306), we comparatively evaluate the predictive capacity of Bayesian networks, Bayesian regression, and random forest in relation to deterministic and probabilistic stage-damage functions, serving as benchmarks. The company loss data stem from four postevent surveys in Germany between 2002 and 2013 and include information on flood intensity, company characteristics, emergency response, private precaution, and resulting loss to building, equipment, and goods and stock. We find that the multivariable probabilistic models successfully identify and reproduce essential relationships of flood damage processes in the data. The assessment of model skill focuses on the precision of the probabilistic predictions and reveals that the candidate models outperform the stage-damage functions, while differences among the proposed models are negligible. Although the combination of multivariable and probabilistic loss estimation improves predictive accuracy over the entire data set, wide predictive distributions stress the necessity for the quantification of uncertainty.
