  Polynomial Convexity and a Nonlinear Triangle Inequality Abstract: A subset of the plane is called convex if the line segment joining any two of its points also lies in the set. The “convex hull” of a set is the smallest convex set containing the given one. I’ll describe how convexity can be interpreted in terms of

Title: Phantom Traffic Jams, Autonomous Vehicles, and the Future of Traffic Modelling Abstract: Initially homogeneous vehicular traffic flow can become inhomogeneous even in the absence of obstacles. In this "phantom traffic jam'' phenomenon, small perturbations grow into traffic waves, called “jamitons”. Via the mathematical analysis of traffic models, we demonstrate that phantom jams can arise from

VARIABLE EXPONENT BOUNDED VARIATION SPACES IN THE RIESZ SENSE Abstract This talk introduces Variable Exponent Bounded Variation Spaces in the Riesz Sense. We prove some embedding results and present a Riesz representation lemma in our setting . Also it shows an application of the latter result by characterizing the global Lipschitz Nemytskii operator on the newly introduced spaces
