Analytical properties of viscosity solutions for integro-differential equations : image visualization and restoration by curvature motions / Propriétés analytiques des solutions de viscosité des équations integro-différentielles : visualisation et restauration d'images par mouvements de courbure

Ciomaga, Adina 29 April 2011 (has links)
Le manuscrit est constitué de deux parties indépendantes.Propriétés des Solutions de Viscosité des Equations Integro-Différentielles.Nous considérons des équations intégro-différentielles elliptiques et paraboliques non-linéaires (EID), où les termes non-locaux sont associés à des processus de Lévy. Ce travail est motivé par l'étude du Comportement en temps long des solutions de viscosité des EID, dans le cas périodique. Le résultat classique nous dit que la solution u(¢, t ) du problème de Dirichlet pour EID se comporte comme ?t Åv(x)Åo(1) quand t !1, où v est la solution du problème ergodique stationaire qui correspond à une unique constante ergodique ?.En général, l'étude du comportement asymptotique est basé sur deux arguments: la régularité de solutions et le principe de maximumfort.Dans un premier temps, nous étudions le Principe de Maximum Fort pour les solutions de viscosité semicontinues des équations intégro-différentielles non-linéaires. Nous l'utilisons ensuite pour déduire un résultat de comparaison fort entre sous et sur-solutions des équations intégro-différentielles, qui va assurer l'unicité des solutions du problème ergodique à une constante additive près. De plus, pour des équationssuper-quadratiques le principe de maximum fort et en conséquence le comportement en temps grand exige la régularité Lipschitzienne.Dans une deuxième partie, nous établissons de nouvelles estimations Hölderiennes et Lipschitziennes pour les solutions de viscosité d'une large classe d'équations intégro-différentielles non-linéaires, par la méthode classique de Ishii-Lions. Les résultats de régularité aident de plus à la résolution du problème ergodique et sont utilisés pour fournir existence des solutions périodiques des EID.Nos résultats s'appliquent à une nouvelle classe d'équations non-locales que nous appelons équations intégro-différentielles mixtes. Ces équations sont particulièrement intéressantes, car elles sont dégénérées à la fois dans le terme local et non-local, mais leur comportement global est conduit par l'interaction locale - non-locale, par exemple la diffusion fractionnaire peut donner l'ellipticité dans une direction et la diffusion classique dans la direction orthogonale.Visualisation et Restauration d'Images par Mouvements de CourbureLe rôle de la courbure dans la perception visuelle remonte à 1954, et on le doit à Attneave. Des arguments neurologiques expliquent que le cerveau humain ne pourrait pas possiblement utiliser toutes les informations fournies par des états de simulation. Mais en réalité on enregistre des régions où la couleur change brusquement (des contours) et en outre les angles et les extremas de courbure. Pourtant, un calcul direct de courbures sur une image est impossible. Nous montrons comment les courbures peuvent être précisément évaluées, à résolution sous-pixelique par un calcul sur les lignes de niveau après leur lissage indépendant.Pour cela, nous construisons un algorithme que nous appelons Level Lines (Affine) Shortening, simulant une évolution sous-pixelique d'une image par mouvement de courbure moyenne ou affine. Aussi bien dans le cadre analytique que numérique, LLS (respectivement LLAS) extrait toutes les lignes de niveau d'une image, lisse indépendamment et simultanément toutes ces lignes de niveau par Curve Shortening(CS) (respectivement Affine Shortening (AS)) et reconstruit une nouvelle image. Nousmontrons que LL(A)S calcule explicitement une solution de viscosité pour le le Mouvement de Courbure Moyenne (respectivement Mouvement par Courbure Affine), ce qui donne une équivalence avec le mouvement géométrique.Basé sur le raccourcissement de lignes de niveau simultané, nous fournissons un outil de visualisation précis des courbures d'une image, que nous appelons un Microscope de Courbure d'Image. En tant que application, nous donnons quelques exemples explicatifs de visualisation et restauration d'image : du bruit, des artefacts JPEG, de l'aliasing seront atténués par un mouvement de courbure sous-pixelique / The present dissertation has two independent parts.Viscosity solutions theory for nonlinear Integro-Differential EquationsWe consider nonlinear elliptic and parabolic Partial Integro-Differential Equations (PIDES), where the nonlocal terms are associated to jump Lévy processes. The present work is motivated by the study of the Long Time Behavior of Viscosity Solutions for Nonlocal PDEs, in the periodic setting. The typical result states that the solution u(¢, t ) of the initial value problem for parabolic PIDEs behaves like ?t Å v(x) Å o(1) as t ! 1, where v is a solution of the stationary ergodic problem corresponding to the unique ergodic constant ?. In general, the study of the asymptotic behavior relies on two main ingredients: regularity of solutions and the strong maximum principle.We first establish Strong Maximum Principle results for semi-continuous viscosity solutions of fully nonlinear PIDEs. This will be used to derive Strong Comparison results of viscosity sub and super-solutions, which ensure the up to constants uniqueness of solutions of the ergodic problem, and subsequently, the convergence result. Moreover, for super-quadratic equations the strong maximum principle and accordingly the large time behavior require Lipschitz regularity.We then give Lipschitz estimates of viscosity solutions for a large class of nonlocal equations, by the classical Ishii-Lions's method. Regularity results help in addition solving the ergodic problem and are used to provide existence of periodic solutions of PIDEs. In both cases, we deal with a new class of nonlocal equations that we term mixed integrodifferential equations. These equations are particularly interesting, as they are degenerate both in the local and nonlocal term, but their overall behavior is driven by the local-nonlocal interaction, e.g. the fractional diffusion may give the ellipticity in one direction and the classical diffusion in the complementary one.Image Visualization and Restoration by CurvatureMotionsThe role of curvatures in visual perception goes back to 1954 and is due to Attneave. It can be argued on neurological grounds that the human brain could not possible use all the information provided by states of simulation. But actually human brain registers regions where color changes abruptly (contours), and furthermore angles and peaks of curvature. Yet, a direct computation of curvatures on a raw image is impossible. We show how curvatures can be accurately estimated, at subpixel resolution, by a direct computation on level lines after their independent smoothing.To performthis programme, we build an image processing algorithm, termed Level Lines (Affine) Shortening, simulating a sub-pixel evolution of an image by mean curvature motion or by affine curvature motion. Both in the analytical and numerical framework, LL(A)S first extracts all the level lines of an image, then independently and simultaneously smooths all of its level lines by curve shortening (CS) (respectively affine shortening (AS)) and eventually reconstructs, at each time, a new image from the evolved level lines.We justify that the Level Lines Shortening computes explicitly a viscosity solution for the Mean CurvatureMotion and hence is equivalent with the clasical, geometric Curve Shortening.Based on simultaneous level lines shortening, we provide an accurate visualization tool of image curvatures, that we call an Image CurvatureMicroscope. As an application we give some illustrative examples of image visualization and restoration: noise, JPEG artifacts, and aliasing will be shown to be nicely smoothed out by the subpixel curvature motion.

[en] A PRIORI ESTIMATES WITH APPLICATION TO MEAN-FIELD GAMES / [pt] ESTIMATIVAS A PRIORI E JOGOS DE CAMPO MÉDIO

JOAO VITOR MEDEIROS DOMINGOS 28 January 2021 (has links)
[pt] A estrutura dos mean-filed games foi desenvolvida com o intuito de estudar problemas com um infinito número de jogadores em algum tipo de competição, ao qual pode ser aplicado em diversos problemas. O estudo formalizado desses problemas começou, na comunidade matemática com Lasry and Lions, e mais ou menos na mesma época, porém independentemente, na comunidade de engenharia por P. Caines, Minyi Huang, and Roland Malhamé. Desde então a pesquisa nos mean-field games cresceu exponencialmente, e nesse trabalho apresentaremos regularidade para um caso de mean-field games utilizando tecnicas particulares. Nesse trabalho, estudamos time-dependent mean-field games no caso subquadrático, isto é, mean-field games, o qual é escrito como um sistema de duas equações, uma equação de Hamilton-Jacobi e uma equação do transporte ou uma equação de Fokker-Plank, em que o Hamiltoniano na equação de Hamilton-Jacobi possui um crescimento subquadratico. Começamos em assumir dez suposições, e então sob os mesmos deduzir regularidade Lipschitz para o sistema. / [en] The mean-field games framework was developed to study problems with an infinite number of rational players in competition, which could be applied in many problems. The formalized study of these problems has begun, in the mathematical community by Lasry and Lions, and beside them, but independently close to the same time in the engineering community by P. Caines, Minyi Huang, and Roland Malhamé. Since these seminal contributions, the research in mean-field games has grown exponentially, and in this work we present a regularity to a case of mean-field games using particulars techniques. In this work, we study time-dependent mean-field games in the subquadratic case, that is, mean-field games, which are written as a system of a Hamilton–Jacobi equation and a transport or Fokker–Planck equation, where The Hamiltonian presented on the Hamilton–Jacobi equation has a subquadratic growth. We begin by assuming ten assumptions, and then, under these assumptions derive Lipschitz regularity of the system.
