A novel strong duality-based reformulation for trilevel infrastructure models in energy systems development
* Monday 25 November 2024, 15:15, Riihi (Y225a)
Further information
We explore the class of trilevel equilibrium problems with a focus on energy-environmental applications and present a novel single-level reformulation for such problems, based on strong duality. To the best of our knowledge, only one alternative single-level reformulation for trilevel problems exists. This reformulation uses a representation of the bottom-level solution set, whereas we propose a reformulation based on strong duality. Our novel reformulation is compared to this existing formulation, discussing both model sizes and computational performance. In particular, we apply this trilevel framework to a power market model, exploring the possibilities of an international policymaker in reducing emissions of the system. Using the proposed approach, we are able to obtain globally optimal solutions for a five-node case study representing the Nordic countries and assess the impact of a carbon tax on the electricity production portfolio.

Ball Evans approximation problem: Recent progress and open problems
* Wednesday 27 November 2024, 10:15, M3 (M234)
In this talk we give a short overview about the Ball-Evans approximation problem, i.e. about the approximation of Sobolev homeomorphism by a sequence of diffeomorphisms (or piecewise affine homeomorphisms) and we recall the motivation for this problem. We show some recent planar results and counterexamples in higher dimensions, and we give a number of open problems connected to this problem and related fields. We concentrate in detail on the joint result with A. Pratelli [1] about the approximation on planar W1,1-homeomorphisms by a sequence of piecewise affine homeomorphisms.

Recovery of material parameters in induction motor rotors
* Thursday 28 November 2024, 11:00, M2 (M233)
We discuss some numerical algorithms for recovering parameters in eigenvalue problems for linear elasticity of transversely isotropic materials. Specifically, the algorithms are used to recover the elastic constants of a rotor core. Numerical tests show that in the noiseless setup, two pairs of bending modes are sufficient for recovering one to four parameters accurately. To recover all five parameters that govern the elastic properties of induction motors accurately, we require three pairs of bending modes and one torsional mode. Moreover, we study the stability of the inversion method against multiplicative noise; for tests in which the data contained multiplicative noise of at most 1\%, we find that all parameters can be recovered with an error less than $10\%$.

Seminar course (7.-17.1.): An introduction to Dirichlet's L-functions and a proof of Dirichlet's theorem of primes in arithmetic progressions
Tuesday 07 January 2025, 10:15, M3 (M234)
We will begin this course (MS-EV0030) by reviewing Euler's change of paradigm, with respect to Euclid, and his proof on infinitude of primes. Then, we will study the generalization made by Dirichlet, and will prove Dirichlet's theorem on arithmetic progression. Through the course we will learn about the development of L-functions, character theory and the beginning of the relation between Galois representations and certain complex functions.
There will be 5 sessions during 2 weeks. For students interested in credits: attendance gives 2 cr and more can be obtained (upon request) by completing further assignments. Sessions take place on Tue, Thu on the first week and Mon, Wed, Fri the second week, all at 10:15-12.

On the usage of joint diagonalization in multivariate statistics
Monday 20 January 2025, 14:15, Y313
Scatter matrices generalize the covariance matrix and are useful in many multivariate data analysis methods, including principal component analysis, which is usually based on the diagonalization of the covariance matrix. The simultaneous diagonalization of two or more scatter matrices goes beyond PCA and is used more and more often. In this talk, we offer an overview of many methods that are based on joint diagonalization. These methods range from the unsupervised context with invariant coordinate selection and blind source separation, which includes independent component analysis, to the supervised context with linear discriminant analysis and sliced inverse regression. They also encompass methods that handle dependent data such as time series or spatial data.

Unsupervised linear discrimination using skewness
Wednesday 12 February 2025, 10:15, M237
It is known that, in Gaussian two-group separation, the optimally discriminating projection direction can be estimated without any knowledge on the group labels. In this presentation, we (a) motivate this estimation problem, and (b) gather several unsupervised estimators based on skewness and derive their limiting distributions. As one of our main results, we show that all affine equivariant estimators of the optimal direction have proportional asymptotic covariance matrices, making their comparison straightforward. We use simulations to verify our results and to inspect the finite-sample behaviors of the estimators.
