With the help of a monotonically convergent algorithm, we find that the optimal field is in the microwave part of the spectrum and acts by resonantly exciting the rotation of the molecule progressively from the ground state, i.e., by rotational ladder climbing. This mechanism is present not only when maximizing orientation or alignment, but also when using prescribed target states that simultaneously optimize the efficiency of orientation/alignment and its duration. The extension of the optimization method to consider a finite rotational temperature is also presented.

However, despite their mathematical simplicity, very limited intuitive understanding exists at this time to explain the former type of algorithms. Departing from the usual mathematical formalization, we present in this paper an interpretation of the monotonic algorithms as finite horizon, local in time, tracking schemes. Our purpose is not to present a new class of procedures but rather to introduce the necessary rigorous framework that supports this interpretation. As a by-product we show that at each instant, estimates of the future quality of the current control field are available and used in the optimization. When the target is expressed as reaching a prescribed final state, we also present an intuitive geometrical interpretation as the minimization of the distance between two correlated trajectories: one starting from the given initial state and the other backward in time from the target state. As an illustration, a stochastic monotonic algorithm is introduced. Numerical discretizations of the two procedures are also presented.

We introduce a notion of locally optimal transport plan, motivated by the weak KAM (Aubry-Mather) theory, and show that all locally optimal transport plans are conjugate to shifts and that the cost of a locally optimal transport plan is a convex function of a shift parameter. This theory is applied to a transportation problem arising in image processing: for two sets of point masses on the circle, both of which have the same total mass, find an optimal transport plan with respect to a given cost function c satisfying the Monge condition. In the circular case the sorting strategy fails to provide a unique candidate solution, and a naive approach requires a quadratic number of operations. For the case of N real-valued point masses we present an O(N vertical bar log epsilon vertical bar) algorithm that approximates the optimal cost within epsilon; when all masses are integer multiples of 1/M, the algorithm gives an exact solution in O(N log M) operations.}}, DOI = {{10.1137/090772708}}, ISSN = {{0036-1399}}, ResearcherID-Numbers = {{salomon, julien/B-3402-2013 Sobolevski, Andrei/D-9361-2012}}, ORCID-Numbers = {{Sobolevski, Andrei/0000-0002-3082-5113}}, Unique-ID = {{ISI:000281108800006}}, }

The versatility of such methods has been demonstrated with particular elegance within nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) where natural separation between coherent and dissipative spin dynamics processes has enabled coherent quantum control over long periods of time to shape the experiment to almost ideal adoption to the spin system and external manipulations. This has led to new design principles as well as powerful new experimental methods within magnetic resonance imaging, liquid-state and solid-state NMR spectroscopy.

The numerical resolution is done with finite elements method based on a tetrahedral meshing of the computational domain, representing the reactor core, and time discretization is achieved using a theta-scheme. The transient model presents moving control rods during the time of the reaction. Therefore, cross-sections (piecewise constants) are taken into account by interpolations with respect to the velocity of the control rods. The parallelism across the time is achieved by an adequate use of the parareal in time algorithm to the handled problem. This parallel method is a predictor corrector scheme that iteratively combines the use of two kinds of numerical propagators, one coarse and one fine. Our method is made efficient by means of a coarse solver defined with large time step and fixed position control rods model, while the fine propagator is assumed to be a high order numerical approximation of the full model. The parallel implementation of our method provides a good scalability of the algorithm. Numerical results show the efficiency of the parareal method on large light water reactor transient model corresponding to the Langenbuch-Maurer-Werner benchmark. (C) 2014 Elsevier Inc.

However when perturbations are present some interesting theoretical questions are raised. We consider in this paper a control system whose control cannot be implemented exactly but is shifted by a time independent constant in a discrete list of possibilities. We prove under general hypothesis that the collection of possible systems (one for each possible perturbation) is simultaneously controllable with a common control. The result is extended to the situations where the perturbations are constant over a common, long enough, time frame. We apply the result to the controllability of quantum systems. Furthermore, some examples and a convergence result are presented for the situation where an infinite number of perturbations occurs. In addition, the techniques invoked in the proof allow us to obtain generic necessary and sufficient conditions for ensemble controllability. (C) 2015 European Control Association.

More precisely, we consider a system with N\$\$ N \$\$ resources and N\$\$ N \$\$ activities, each activity use the allocated resource to evolve up to a given time T>0\$\$ T>0 \$\$ where a control (represented by a given permutation) will be applied on the system to reallocate the resources. The goal is to find the optimal control strategies which optimize the cost or the benefit of the system. This problem can be illustrated by an industrial biological application, namely, the optimization of a mixing strategy to enhance the growth rate in a microalgal raceway system. A mixing device, such as a paddle wheel, is considered to control the rearrangement of the depth of the algae cultures, hence the light perceived at each lap. We prove that if the dynamics of the system is periodic, then the period corresponds to one reallocation whatever the order of the involved permutation matrix is. A nonlinear optimization problem for one reallocation process is then introduced. Since N!\$\$ N! \$\$ permutations need to be tested in the general case, it can be numerically solved only for a limited number of N\$\$ N \$\$. To overcome this difficulty, we introduce a second optimization problem which provides a suboptimal solution of the initial problem, but whose solution can be determined explicitly. A sufficient condition to characterize cases where the two problems have the same solution is given. Some numerical experiments are performed to assess the benefit of optimal strategies in various settings.} } }

Left: sequential iterations.
Right: iterations achieved in parallel.

The red dots indicate the borders of the sub-intervals used in the parallelization. Note that we are close to the full efficiency: with our approach, the computational time is approximately divided by the number of processors used in the parallelization (here 5 processors). This method also applies to Nuclear Magnetic Resonance.

First in 2D : an elastic disc bounces on the ground. Because of friction, it starts rotating.

In the second example, we compare the 3D evolution of a torus for various values of the friction coefficient. In our case high friction leads to a return motion, see the torus on the right.

Optimal Transport, Mean Field Games and Economics

Abstract (french) »


We consider an optimal transport problem in a PDE formulation where the final state optimizes a given potential. The transport between initial and final state minimizes the kinetic energy. Here, the final state minimizes a potential containing two wells.

Optimal Transport, Concave Costs

Abstract (french) »


In this example, we want to find the optimal transport plan that matches two sets of 50 demands and 50 supplies, represented by (very small) blue crosses and red dots. Both are randomly distributed.
Using the Local Matching Indicators presented in "17. Local matching indicators for transport problems with concave costs" we compute the cheapest plan.

@article{ ISI:000305962300026, Author = {Delon, Julie and Salomon, Julien and Sobolevski, Andrei}, Title = {{LOCAL MATCHING INDICATORS FOR TRANSPORT PROBLEMS WITH CONCAVE COSTS}}, Journal = {{SIAM JOURNAL ON DISCRETE MATHEMATICS}}, Year = {{2012}}, Volume = {{26}}, Number = {{2}}, Pages = {{801-827}}, Abstract = {{In this paper, we introduce a class of local indicators that enable us to compute efficiently optimal transport plans associated with arbitrary weighted distributions of N demands and M supplies in R in the case where the cost function is concave. Indeed, whereas this problem can be solved linearly when the cost is a convex function of the distance on the line (or more generally when the cost matrix between points is a Monge matrix), to the best of our knowledge no simple solution has been proposed for concave costs, which are more realistic in many applications, especially in economic situations. The problem we consider may be unbalanced, in the sense that the weight of all the supplies might be larger than the weight of all the demands. We show how to use the local indicators hierarchically to solve the transportation problem for concave costs on the line.}}, DOI = {{10.1137/110823304}}, ISSN = {{0895-4801}}, EISSN = {{1095-7146}}, ResearcherID-Numbers = {{salomon, julien/B-3402-2013 Sobolevski, Andrei/D-9361-2012}}, ORCID-Numbers = {{Sobolevski, Andrei/0000-0002-3082-5113}}, Unique-ID = {{ISI:000305962300026}}, }
The matching (represented by black arcs) is built iteratively, by detecting negative values of the indicators.
