    • Definable Additive Subgroups of Partial Differential Fields of Characteristic Zero with an Automorphism 

      Bustamante Medina, Ronald F. (2020-10-19)
      Abstract.The theory of partial differential fields of characteristic zero withan automorphism has a model companion denoted DCFmA. This theory isnot complete, but its completions are easily discribed. They are supersimpleand ...
    • Dengue model with early-life stage of vectors and age-structure within host 

      Sánchez Peña, Fabio Ariel; Calvo Alpízar, Juan Gabriel (2019-12)
      We construct an epidemic model for the transmission of dengue fever with an early-life stage in the vector dynamics and age-structure within hosts. The early-life stage of the vector is modeled via a general function that ...
    • Density functional theory on phase space 

      Blanchard, Philippe; Gracia Bondía, José M.; Várilly Boyle, Joseph C. (2012)
      Forty-five years after the point de départ [Hohenberg and Kohn, Phys. Rev. 1964, B864, 136] of density functional theory, its applications in chemistry and the study of electronic structures keep steadily growing. However, ...
    • Desarrollo y análisis del comportamiento humano adaptativo en modelos con relapso no lineal 

      Calvo Monge, Jimmy José (2023)
      En este proyecto proponemos estudiar las propiedades teóricas y nuevas aplicaciones de un algoritmo de formulación recuente para modelar las decisiones de contacto humanas en modelos epidemiológicos, que es llamado el ...
    • Dilation of a non-quasifree dissipative evolution 

      Várilly Boyle, Joseph C. (1981-03)
      A semigroup evolution for the 1/2-spin which admits a conservative dilation is known to be governed by a Bloch equation in a standard form. Here we construct a conservative dilation directly from the Bloch equation, thus ...
    • Diseño de fórmulas integrales 

      Alarcón Athens, Winston (1992)
      Presentamos una nueva metodología de diseño de fórmulas integrales que no utiliza explícitamente sumas de Riemann ni procesos de límite. El método consiste en partir de un modelo elemental con solución conocida, e interpretar ...
    • Distinguished Hamiltonian theorem for homogeneous symplectic manifolds 

      Cariñena Marzo, José F.; Gracia Bondía, José M.; Ibort Latre, Luis Alberto; López, Carlos; Várilly Boyle, Joseph C. (1991-09)
      A diffeomorphism of a finite-dimensional flat symplectic manifold which is canonoid with respect to all linear and quadratic Hamiltonians preserves the symplectic structure up to a factor: so runs the "quadratic Hamiltonian ...
