Identifying invariant solutions of wall-bounded three-dimensional shear flows using robust adjoint-based variational techniques

Invariant solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations play an important role in the spatiotemporally chaotic dynamics of turbulent shear flows. Despite the significance of these solutions, their identification remains a computational challenge, rendering many ...

Scalable Multi-agent Coordination and Resource Sharing

Panayiotis Danassis

A plethora of real world problems consist of a number of agents that interact, learn, cooperate, coordinate, and compete with others in ever more complex environments. Examples include autonomous vehicles, robotic agents, intelligent infrastructure, IoT de ...

Convergence without Convexity: Sampling, Optimization, and Games

Ya-Ping Hsieh

Many important problems in contemporary machine learning involve solving highly non- convex problems in sampling, optimization, or games. The absence of convexity poses significant challenges to convergence analysis of most training algorithms, and in some ...

Finding Mixed Nash Equilibria of Generative Adversarial Networks

Volkan Cevher, Ya-Ping Hsieh, Chen Liu

We reconsider the training objective of Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) from the mixed Nash Equilibria (NE) perspective. Inspired by the classical prox methods, we develop a novel algorithmic framework for GANs via an infinite-dimensional two-player ...

Effects of magnetic ripple on 3D equilibrium and alpha particle confinement in the European DEMO

Ambrogio Fasoli, Jonathan Graves, Wilfred Anthony Cooper, David Pfefferlé

An assessment of alpha particle confinement is performed in the European DEMO reference design. 3D MHD equilibria with nested flux-surfaces and single magnetic axis are obtained with the VMEC free-boundary code, thereby including the plasma response to the ...

Collaborative Housing and the Intermediation of Moral Hazard

Thomas Alois Weber

This paper considers intermediation in a differentiated short-term housing market where heterogeneous agents may stay at a hotel or at one of several private hosts' properties, below or above hotel quality. The collaborative-housing market fails when agent ...

Challenges in Algorithmic Mechanism Design

Paul David Dütting

This thesis addresses three challenges in algorithmic mechanism design, which seeks to devise computationally efficient mechanisms consisting of an outcome rule and a payment rule that implement desirable outcomes in strategic equilibrium. The first challe ...

Multi-Agent Learning for Resource Allocation Problems

Ludek Cigler

We analyze resource allocation problems where N independent agents want to access C resources. Each resource can be only accessed by one agent at a time. In order to use the resources efficiently, the agents need to coordinate their access. We focus on dec ...

Decentralized Anti-coordination Through Multi-agent Learning

Boi Faltings, Ludek Cigler

To achieve an optimal outcome in many situations, agents need to choose distinct actions from one another. This is the case notably in many resource allocation problems, where a single resource can only be used by one agent at a time. How shall a designer ...

On optimal bidding strategy modeling in the context of a liberalized electricity market

Elena Vdovina Beck

The electricity markets worldwide have distinctive particularities due to some political and historical reasons. However, principal guidelines of market design remain very similar. The main feature of deregulation is to introduce a competition into the gen ...

Non-cooperative behavior in wireless networks

Mark Felegyhazi

Existing cellular networks are centrally managed and require a tremendous initial investment. With the advancement of new wireless technologies, the operators of traditional networks have to face new competition. New technologies make it possible to provid ...

A Two-level Computable Equilibrium Model to Assess the Strategic Allocation of Emission Allowances Within the European Union

Marc Vielle, Alain Haurie, Alain Bernard

This paper deals with the modeling of the strategic allocation of greenhouse gases emission allowances in the EU-wide trading market that results from Kyoto agreement implementation. An M-matrix game is formulated where the players are countries or groups ...
