 Alexey Ostrovsky Mathematics , 2012, Abstract: A subset $B \subset Y$ is constructible if it is an element of the smallest family that contains all open sets and is stable under finite intersections and complements. A function $f : X \to Y$ is said to be piece-wise closed if $X$ can be written as a countable union of closed sets $Z_n$ such that $f$ is closed on every $Z_n.$ We prove that if a continuous function $f$ takes each closed set into a constructible subset of $Y$, then $f$ is piece-wise closed.
 Marius-F. Danca Physics , 2014, Abstract: In this paper we provide a rigorous mathematical foundation for continuous approximations of a class of systems with piece-wise continuous functions. By using techniques from the theory of differential inclusions, the underlying piece-wise functions can be locally or globally approximated. The approximation results can be used to model piece-wise continuous-time dynamical systems of integer or fractional-order. In this way, by overcoming the lack of numerical methods for diffrential equations of fractional-order with discontinuous right-hand side, unattainable procedures for systems modeled by this kind of equations, such as chaos control, synchronization, anticontrol and many others, can be easily implemented. Several examples are presented and three comparative applications are studied.
 Advances in Pure Mathematics (APM) , 2012, DOI: 10.4236/apm.2012.26067 Abstract: In this paper we embark on the study of Dynamic Systems of Shifts in the space of piece-wise continuous functions analogue to the known Bebutov system. We give a formal definition of a topological dynamic system in the space of piece-wise continuous functions and show, by way of an example, stability in the sense of Poisson discontinuous function. We prove that a fixed discontinuous function, f, is discontinuous for all its shifts, whereas the trajectory of discontinuous function is not a compact set.
 Marius-F. Danca Physics , 2014, DOI: 10.1007/s11071-014-1577-9 Abstract: The aim of this study is to prove analytically that synchronization of a piece-wise continuous class of systems of fractional order can be achieved. Based on our knowledge, there are no numerical methods to integrate differential equations with discontinuous right hand side of fractional order which model these systems. Therefore, via Filippov's regularization [1] and Cellina's Theorem [2,3], we prove that the initial value problem can be converted into a continuous problem of fractional-order, to which numerical methods for fractional orders apply. In this way, the synchronization problem transforms into a standard problem for continuous systems of fractional order. Three examples of fractional-order piece-wise systems are considered: Sprott system, Chen and Shimizu-Morioka system.
 Physics , 2015, Abstract: Quasi-static strain-controlled measurements of stress vs strain curves in macroscopic amorphous solids result in a nonlinear looking curve that ends up either in mechanical collapse or in a steady-state with fluctuations around a mean stress that remains constant with increasing strain. It is therefore very tempting to fit a nonlinear expansion of the stress in powers of the strain. We argue here that at low temperatures the meaning of such an expansion needs to be reconsidered. We point out the enormous difference between quenched and annealed averages of the stress vs. strain curves, and propose that a useful description of the mechanical response is given by a stress (or strain) dependent shear modulus. The elastic response is piece-wise linear rather than nonlinear.
 Mathematics , 2006, DOI: 10.1016/j.aim.2007.11.024 Abstract: We study multivariate generalisations of the classical Wiener--Hopf algebra, which is the C$^*$-algebra generated by the Wiener--Hopf operators, given by the convolutions restricted to convex cones. By the work of Muhly and Renault, this C$^*$-algebra is known to be isomorphic to the reduced C$^*$-algebra of a certain restricted action groupoid. In a previous paper, we have determined a composition series of this C$^*$-algebra, and compute the $K$-theory homomorphisms induced by the `symbol' maps given by the subquotients of the composition series in terms of the analytical index of a continuous family of Fredholm operators. In this paper, we obtain a topological expression for these index maps in terms of geometric-topological data naturally associated to the underlying convex cone. The resulting index formula is expressed in the framework of Kasparov's bivariant $KK$-theory. Our proof relies heavily on groupoid methods.
 Harold Widom Mathematics , 2006, Abstract: The solution of a problem arising in integrable systems requires sharp asymptotics for the inverses and determinants of truncated Wiener-Hopf operators, both in the regular case (where the non-truncated Wiener-Hopf operator is invertible) and in singular cases. This paper treats the singular cases where the symbol of the Wiener-Hopf operator has one double zero or two simple zeros. We find formulas for the inverses that hold uniformly throughout the underlying interval with very small error, and formulas for the determinants with very small error.
 Alexander V. Sobolev Mathematics , 2010, Abstract: Relying on the known two-term quasiclassical asymptotic formula for the trace of the function $f(A)$ of a Wiener-Hopf type operator $A$ in dimension one, in 1982 H. Widom conjectured a multi-dimensional generalization of that formula for a pseudo-differential operator $A$ with a symbol $a(\bx, \bxi)$ having jump discontinuities in both variables. In 1990 he proved the conjecture for the special case when the jump in any of the two variables occurs on a hyperplane. The present paper gives a proof of Widom's Conjecture under the assumption that the symbol has jumps in both variables on arbitrary smooth bounded surfaces.
 International Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences , 2006, DOI: 10.1155/ijmms/2006/38152 Abstract: A characterization of the invertibility of a class of matrix Wiener-Hopf plus Hankel operators is obtained based on a factorization of the Fourier symbols which belong to the Wiener subclass of the almost periodic matrix functions. Additionally, a representation of the inverse, lateral inverses, and generalized inverses is presented for each corresponding possible case.
 Mathematics , 2002, Abstract: The continuous analogue of a Toeplitz determinant identity for Wiener-Hopf operators is proved. An example which arises from random matrix theory is studied and an error term for the asymptotics of the determinant is computed.
