Eigenschaften chromatischer Polynome
(2015-11-02)
Die Berechnung des 1912 von Birkhoff eingeführten chromatischen Polynoms eines Graphen stellt bekanntlich ein NP-vollständiges Problem dar. Dieses gilt somit erst recht für die Verallgemeinerung des chromatischen Polynoms zum bivariaten chromatischen Polynom nach Dohmen, Pönitz und Tittmann aus dem Jahre 2003. Eine von Averbouch, Godlin und Makowsky 2008 vorgestellte Rekursionsformel verursacht durch wiederholte Anwendung im Allgemeinen einen exponentiellen Rechenaufwand. Daher war das Ziel der vorliegenden Dissertation, ...

Analysis of a Coupled Fluid-Elastic Interaction Problem
(2023-01)
In this thesis, a non-linear system of partial differential equations is studied, describing the motions of an elastic structure which is immersed into an incompressible viscous fluid. The displacement of the elastic structure is modelled by a Lamé system and the fluid velocity as well as the fluid pressure are described by the Navier-Stokes equations. The structure and the fluid are coupled via two boundary conditions at the interface which correspond to continuity of velocities and forces. As the elasticity is ...

Finite Element Simulations for the Design of Therapeutic Approaches for Retinal Diseases
(2022)
The retinal disease age-related macular degeneration is the most common cause of vision loss in industrialized countries. In this thesis, motivated by the drug (antibody) treatment of this disease, we designed long-term three dimensional Finite Element simulations of the drug distribution in the healthy human eye. The underlying model consists of a time-dependent convection-diffusion equation coupled to a stationary Darcy equation describing the flow of the aqueous humor through the vitreous medium. We replaced the ...

Existence and Asymptotic Behavior of Solutions to the Time-Periodic Navier-Stokes Equations in a Layer Domain with Nonhomogeneous Boundary Data
(2024)
This dissertation is dedicated to the analysis of the Navier-Stokes equations in a timeperiodic framework in the so-called layer domain Π = R2 × (0, 1), described by:
∂tu − νΔu + (u · ∇)u + ∇p = f in [0, T] × Π,
div u = 0 in [0, T] × Π,
u|∂Π = a for all t ∈ [0, T] ,
u|t=0 = u|t=T in Π.
The velocity field u and the pressure p are unknowns, while the external force f is prescribed. Challenges arise due to unboundedness of the layer Π and from introduction of a nonhomogeneous boundary condition a. The investigated ...

A Unifying Theory for Runge-Kutta-like Time Integrators: Convergence and Stability
(2024)
The work deals with two major topics concerning the numerical analysis of Runge-Kutta-like (RK-like) methods, namely their stability and order of convergence. RK-like methods differ from additive RK methods in that their coefficients are allowed to depend on the solution and the step size. As a result of this, we also refer to them as non-standard additive RK (NSARK) methods. We motivate and introduce modified Patankar (MP) schemes as a subclass of NSARK methods and emphasize their importance. The first major part ...

Job-shop scheduling with flexible energy prices and time windows: A branch-and-price-and-cut approach
(2024)
Energy-aware scheduling is crucial in the current economy and green production initiatives. However, with the rise of renewable energy sources, power production is subject to uncertain weather conditions. Hence, within a network, some balancing group managers must maintain a balance between production and demand, which requires precise energy orders for specific times. Therefore, those managers must prioritize accurate energy orders to manage this complex problem.
The primary aim of this thesis is to manage one ...

Existence and Regularity Results of a Ferroelectric Phase-Field Model
(2019)
In this thesis, we investigate the existence and regularity results of a ferroelectric phase-field model, which is a state-of-the-art model arising in recent years from the engineering area for the ferroelectric study.

Generalized Involutive Bases and Their Induced Free Resolutions
(2022-05)
In this thesis, we generalize several types of involutive and marked bases for ideals in quotient rings of commutative polynomial rings. We apply these new types of bases to the analysis of infinite free resolutions and of Hilbert schemes defined over certain types of quotient rings. We are mostly concerned with Pommaret and Janet bases; the marked bases we consider are marked over monomial submodules that are quasi-stable, i.e., that possess finite Pommaret bases.
Involutive bases of the types we consider induce ...

Generation Human Body Motion by the Centralized Networks
(2023)
The main goal of the thesis is to describe and study reduced models for efficient simulations of human body motions (HBM). To this end, we propose new coupled oscillator models, which are networks of dynamically coupled elements. These networks consist of a few of centers and many satellites. The centers evolve in time as periodical oscillators with different frequencies. The satellite states are defined via center states by a radial basis function (RBF) networks. To simulate different motions we adjust the parameter ...

On the analysis of path-dependent functionals of stochastic PDEs
(2023)
Weak approximation methods for stochastic partial differential equations (SPDEs) are concerned with approximating the probability distribution of the solution process rather than the realizations of the solution process itself. In this thesis, we provide new results and methods concerning the weak error analysis of numerical approximations of path-dependent functionals of solution processes of SPDEs. Two separate approaches to analyzing weak approximation errors are considered: the Itô calculus approach and the ...
