Cost of controllability of the Burgers' equation linearized at a steady shock in the vanishing viscosity limit

We consider the one-dimensional Burgers' equation linearized at a stationary shock, and investigate its null-controllability cost with a control at the left endpoint. We give an upper and a lower bound on the control time required for this cost to remain bounded in the vanishing viscosity limit, and construct an admissible control with an explicit limit behavior. We also provide an extension of the analysis to the case where the control acts on both endpoints. The proof relies on complex analysis and adapts methods previously used to tackle the same issue with a constant transport term.

On the singularity of the Fisher Information matrix in the sine-skewed family on the d-dimensional torus

Skewed distributions are fundamental in modelling asymmetric data on the d-dimensional torus. In this context, asymmetry is introduced through the sine-skewing mechanism, which is the only skewing mechanism that has been proposed on the hyper-torus in the literature. Some sine-skewed models are known to suffer from a singular Fisher information matrix in the vicinity of symmetry, which poses a significant issue for inferential purposes. It is an open question to determine for which sine-skewed models Fisher information singularity occurs. In this paper, a general characterization of the class of models that exhibit this singularity is given in the general d-dimensional setting.

A new look at the controllability cost of linear evolution systems with a long gaze at localized data

We revisit the classical issue of the controllability/observability cost of linear first order evolution systems, starting with ODEs, before turning to some linear first order evolution PDEs in several space dimensions, including hyperbolic systems and pseudo-differential systems obtained by linearization in fluid mechanics. In particular we investigate the cost of localized initial data, and in the dispersive case, of initial data which are semi-classically microlocalized.
