Dilation Theory of Contractions and Nevanlinna-Pick Interpolation Problem
In this article, we give two different proofs of the existence of the minimal isometric dilation of a single contraction. Then using the existence of a unitary dilation of a contraction, we prove the `von Neumann's ... -
Dilations, Functoinal Model And A Complete Unitary Invariant Of A r-contraction.
(2013-08-02)A pair of commuting bounded operators (S, P) for which the set r = {(z 1 +z 2,z 1z 2) : |z 1| ≤1, |z 2| ≤1} C2 is a spectral set, is called a r-contraction in the literature. For a contraction P and a bounded commutant ... -
Direct and Indirect Search for New Physics at Colliders
The Standard Model (SM) of particle physics has been remarkably successful to describe strong, weak and electromagnetic forces of nature, as it has agreed with most of the experiments till date. However, there are still ... -
Direct Measurement of Itinerant Magnetism & Interface States in Semiconductors using Time-varying Magnetic Fields
(2017-11-28)Magnetism in a solid | dia, para, ferro, or of other forms | originates majorly from its electrons; one could, infact, ignore the nuclear contribution. There are two types of electrons in a solid: bound, and free (also ... -
Direct Numerical Simulations of Fluid Turbulence : (A) Statistical Properties of Tracer And Inertial Particles (B) Cauchy-Lagrange Studies of The Three Dimensional Euler Equation
(2017-11-09)The studies of particles advected by tubulent flows is an active area of research across many streams of sciences and engineering, which include astrophysics, fluid mechanics, statistical physics, nonlinear dynamics, and ... -
Driven Granular and Soft-matter : Fluctuation Relations, Flocking and Oscillatory Sedimentation
(2018-06-11)Active matter refers to systems driven out of thermal equilibrium by the uptake and dissipation of energy directly at the level of the individual constituents, which then undergo systematic movement in a direction decided ... -
Duality for Spaces of Holomorphic Functions into a Locally Convex Topological Vector Space
Consider an open subset O of the complex plane and a function f : O ÝÑ C. We understand the concept of holomorphicity of a complex-valued function. Suppose a function f defined on O takes values in a locally convex ... -
Dynamic Flow Rules in Continuum Visco-plasticity and Damage Models for Poly-crystalline Solids
Modelling highly non-linear, strongly temperature- and rate-dependent visco-plastic behaviour of poly-crystalline solids (e.g., metals and metallic alloys) is one of the most challenging topics of contemporary research ... -
Dynamical Imprint of Dark Matter Halo and Interstellar Gas on Spiral Structure in Disk Galaxies
(2018-08-29)The topic of this thesis deals with the spiral structure in disk galaxies with a specific aim of probing the influence of the dark matter halo and the interstellar gas on the origin and longevity of the spiral arms in ... -
Dynamical Properties of Families of Holomorphic Mappings
(2018-06-08)Thesis Abstract In the first part of the thesis, we study some dynamical properties of skew products of H´enon maps of C2 that are fibered over a compact metric space M . The problem reduces to understanding the dynamical ... -
Dynamics and Organization of Passive and Magnetically Driven Colloids Under Optical Confinement
The physics of confined systems of interacting particles has been a subject of active research for more than a century. Such systems are ubiquitous in nature - examples include petroleum in porous rocks, cytoplasm in ... -
Dynamics and Transport Properties in Polymer Nanocomposites: Role of Interfacial Entropic and Enthalpic Effects
Polymers embedded with nanoparticles polymer nanocomposites (PNCs) have emerged as a new class of hybrid materials, which combine the unique electronic, mechanical, magnetic, catalytic, and optical properties of nanoparticles ... -
Dynamics of glass forming liquids with emphasis on vibrational modes
The potential energy landscape (PEL) description is regarded as one of the fundamental landmarks in the theory of glass transition, which has found wide applications not only in the understanding of disordered materials ... -
Dynamics of Glass-Forming Liquids and Shear-Induced Grain Growth in Dense Colloidal Suspensions
(2018-06-19)The work presented in this doctoral thesis employs colloidal suspensions to explore key open problems in condensed matter physics. Colloidal suspensions, along with gels, polymers, emulsions and liquid crystals belong to ... -
Dynamics of Spiral and Scroll Waves in a Mathematical Model for Human-Ventricular Tissue : The Effects of Fibroblasts, Early-after depolarization, and Heterogeneities
(2018-07-09)This thesis is devoted to the study of the dynamics of spiral and scroll waves in a mathematical model for cardiac tissue. We study the effects of the presence of heterogeneities on electrical-wave dynamics. The heterogeneities ... -
