- ItemDelay-induced dynamics and jitter reduction of passively mode-locked semiconductor lasers subject to optical feedback(Bristol : IOP, 2012) Otto, C.; Lüdge, K.; Vladimirov, A.G.; Wolfrum, M.; Schöll, E.We study a passively mode-locked semiconductor ring laser subject to optical feedback from an external mirror. Using a delay differential equation model for the mode-locked laser, we are able to systematically investigate the resonance effects of the inter-spike interval time of the laser and the roundtrip time of the light in the external cavity (delay time) for intermediate and long delay times. We observe synchronization plateaus following the ordering of the well-known Farey sequence. Our results show that in agreement with the experimental results a reduction of the timing jitter is possible if the delay time is chosen close to an integer multiple of the inter-spike interval time of the laser without external feedback. Outside the main resonant regimes the timing jitter is drastically increased by the feedback.
- ItemJoint Model of Probabilistic-Robust (Probust) Constraints Applied to Gas Network Optimization(Singapore : Springer, 2020) Adelhütte, Dennis; Aßmann, Denis; Grandòn, Tatiana Gonzàlez; Gugat, Martin; Heitsch, Holger; Henrion, René; Liers, Frauke; Nitsche, Sabrina; Schultz, Rüdiger; Stingl, Michael; Wintergerst, DavidOptimization problems under uncertain conditions abound in many real-life applications. While solution approaches for probabilistic constraints are often developed in case the uncertainties can be assumed to follow a certain probability distribution, robust approaches are usually applied in case solutions are sought that are feasible for all realizations of uncertainties within some predefined uncertainty set. As many applications contain different types of uncertainties that require robust as well as probabilistic treatments, we deal with a class of joint probabilistic/robust constraints. Focusing on complex uncertain gas network optimization problems, we show the relevance of this class of problems for the task of maximizing free booked capacities in an algebraic model for a stationary gas network. We furthermore present approaches for finding their solution. Finally, we study the problem of controlling a transient system that is governed by the wave equation. The task consists in determining controls such that a certain robustness measure remains below some given upper bound with high probability.
