    Some properties of the phonon spectra of transition metal disilicides VSi2, NbSi2, and TaSi2

    No full text
    The phonon spectra of metallic disilicides VSi2, NbSi2, and TaSi2 have been studied in detail by inelastic neutron scattering at 300 K and specific heat measurements between 10 K and 250 K. The specific heat calculated from the generalised phonon density of states extracted from neutron measurements is in good agreement with the measured lattice contribution to the specific heat. The properties of the phonon spectra are discussed in relation with other data reported for these isostructural and isoelectronic disilicides. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved

    Strong convergence of the exponential Euler scheme for SDEs with superlinear growth coefficients and one-sided Lipschitz drift

    No full text
    We consider the problem of the discrete-time approximation of the solution of a one-dimensional SDE with piecewise locally Lipschitz drift and continuous diffusion coefficients with polynomial growth. In this paper, we study the strong convergence of a (semi-explicit) exponential-Euler scheme previously introduced in Bossy et al. (2021). We show the usual 1/2 rate of convergence for the exponential-Euler scheme when the drift is continuous. When the drift is discontinuous, the convergence rate is penalised by a factor {ϵ\epsilon} decreasing with the time-step. We examine the case of the diffusion coefficient vanishing at zero, which adds a positivity preservation condition and a convergence analysis that exploits the negative moments and exponential moments of the scheme with the help of change of time technique introduced in Berkaoui et al. (2008). Asymptotic behaviour and theoretical stability of the exponential scheme, as well as numerical experiments, are also presented

    Separability and aggregation of equivalence relations

    No full text
    We provide axiomatic characterizations of two natural families of rules for aggregating equivalence relations: the family of join aggregators and the family of meet aggregators. The central conditions in these characterizations are two separability axioms. Disjunctive separability, neutrality, and unanimity characterize the family of join aggregators. On the other hand, conjunctive separability and unanimity characterize the family of meet aggregators. We show another characterization of the family of meet aggregators using conjunctive separability and two Pareto axioms, Pareto+ and Pareto-. If we drop Pareto-, then conjunctive separability and Pareto+ characterize the family of meet aggregators along with a trivial aggregator
