• Mathematical analysis of light propagation in optical fibers with randomly varying birefringence
  
  • Gazeau Maxime
  , 2012. The study of light propagation in monomode optical fibers requires to take care of various complex phenomena such as the polarization mode dispersion (PMD) and the Kerr effect. It has been proved that the slowly varying envelope of the electric field is well described by a coupled non linear schrödinger equation with random coefficients called the Manakov PMD equation. The particularity of this equation is the presence of various length scales whose ratio is given by a small parameter. The first part of this thesis is concerned with the theoretical study of the asymptotic dynamic of the solution of the Manakov PMD equation as this parameter goes to zero. Generalizing the theory of the Diffusion Approximation in the infinite dimensional setting, we were able to prove that the asymptotic dynamic is given by a stochastic partial differential equation driven by three Brownian motions. In a second part, we propose a Crank Nicolson scheme for this equation and we prove that the order of convergence is 1/2. The discretization of the noise term is taken implicit so that the scheme is conservative and stable. Finally the last part is concerned with numerical simulations of the PMD and propagation and collision of Manakov solitons. The above scheme is implemented and we propose a variance reduction method valid in the context of stochastic partial differential equations.

• Necessary conditions involving Lie brackets for impulsive optimal control problems; the commutative case
  
  • Aronna Maria Soledad
  • Rampazzo Franco
  , 2012. In this article we study control problems with systems that are governed by ordinary differential equations whose vector fields depend linearly in the time derivatives of some components of the control. The remaining components are considered as classical controls. This kind of system is called 'impulsive system'. We assume that the vector fields multiplying the derivatives of each component of the control are commutative. We derive new necessary conditions in terms of the adjoint state and the Lie brackets of the data functions.
• A remark on Lipschitz stability for inverse problems
  
  • Bourgeois Laurent
  , 2012. An abstract Lipschitz stability estimate is proved for a class of inverse problems. It is then applied to the inverse Robin problem for the Laplace equation and to the inverse medium problem for the Helmholtz equation.

  • Kazeykina Anna
  , 2012. We show that the Novikov--Veselov equation (an analog of KdV in dimension 2 + 1) at positive and negative energies does not have solitons with the space localization stronger than O( | x |^{ -3 } ) as | x | \to \infty.

• On the Spherical Hausdorff Measure in Step 2 Corank 2 sub-Riemannian Geometry
  
  • Boscain Ugo
  • Gauthier Jean-Paul
  , 2012. In this paper, we consider generic corank 2 sub-Riemannian structures, and we show that the Spherical Hausdorf measure is always a C^1-smooth volume, which is in fact generically C^2- smooth out of a stratified subset of codimension 7. In particular, for rank 4, it is generically C^2 . This is the continuation of a previous work by the auhors.

• Semi-Lagrangian discontinuous Galerkin schemes for some first and second order partial differential equations
  
  • Bokanowski Olivier

  Journal of Scientific Computing, Springer Verlag, 2012, pp.DOI 10.1007/s10915-012-9648-x. Explicit, unconditionally stable, high order schemes for the approximation of some first and second order linear, time-dependent partial differential equations (PDEs) are proposed. The schemes are based on a weak formulation of a semi-Lagrangian scheme using discontinuous Galerkin elements. It follows the ideas of the recent works of Crouseilles, Mehrenberger and Vecil (2010) and of Qiu and Shu (2011), for first order equations, based on exact integration, quadrature rules, and splitting techniques. In particular we obtain high order schemes, unconditionally stable and convergent, in the case of linear second order PDEs with constant coefficients. In the case of non-constant coefficients, we construct "almost" unconditionally stable second order schemes and give precise convergence results. The schemes are tested on several academic examples, including the Black and Scholes PDE in finance.

• A universality result for the global fluctuations of the eigenvectors of Wigner matrices
  
  • Benaych-Georges Florent
  Random Matrices: Theory and Applications, World Scientific, 2012, 01 (04), pp.23. Let $U_n=[u_{i,j}]$ be the eigenvectors matrix of a Wigner matrix. We prove that under some moments conditions, the bivariate random process indexed by $[0,1]^2$ with value at $(s,t)$ equal to the sum, over $1\le i \le ns$ and $1\le j \le nt$, of $|u_{i,j}|^2 - 1/n$, converges in distribution to the bivariate Brownian bridge. This result has already been proved for GOE and GUE matrices. It is conjectured here that the necessary and sufficient condition, for the result to be true for a general Wigner matrix, is the matching of the moments of orders $1$, $2$ and $4$ of the entries of the Wigner with the ones of a GOE or GUE matrix. Surprisingly, the third moment of the entries of the Wigner matrix has no influence on the limit distribution. (10.1142/S2010326312500116)
