Understanding the dynamics and evolution of climate change and associated
uncertainties is key for designing robust policy actions. Computer models are
key tools in this scientific effort, which have now reached a high level of

Mathematics
General Mathematics
We examine q−series related to higher forms. These forms are cubics,
quartics, etc. In some points, in the article we add parts from previous works,
in such a way, the article be more complete and readable....
From Hodge theory for tame functions to Ehrhart theory for polytopes

We study the interplay between Sabbah's mixed Hodge structure for regular
functions and Ehrhart theory for polytopes. To this end, we analyze the
properties of the Poincar\'e polynomial of the Hodge filtration of this mixed
Hodge structure....

Gaussian process regression can flexibly represent the posterior distribution
of an interest parameter given sufficient information on the likelihood.
However, in some cases, we have little knowledge regarding the probability
model. For exa...
Equivalence of 'Reversible' and 'Irreversible' Entropy Modeling
June 23, 2020
Physics
General Physics
There are currently two main, continuum models of entropy: a 'reversible'
(Clausius) entropy model and an 'irreversible' (Onsager-Prigogine) entropy
model. It is shown that the equations of the 'reversible' and the
'irreversible' entropy mo...

that is of higher quality. Methods: We viewed each EDR algorithm as a software
sensor that recorded breathi...

A velocity-entropy invariance theorem for the Chapman-Jouguet detonation
June 22, 2020

Physics
Fluid Dynamics
The velocity and specific entropy of the Chapman-Jouguet (CJ) equilibrium
detonation are shown to be invariant under the same variations of initial
temperature with initial pressure. This leads to additional CJ relations, for
example, for c...
