We present an ab initio symmetry-adapted no-core shell-model description for 6 Li. We study the structure of the ground state of 6 Li and the impact of the symmetry-guided space selection on the charge density components for this state in momentum space, including the effect of higher shells. We accomplish this by investigating the electron scattering charge form factor for momentum transfers up to q ∼ 4 fm −1 . We demonstrate that this symmetry-adapted framework can achieve significantly reduced dimensions for equivalent large shell-model spaces while retaining the accuracy of the form factor for any momentum transfer. These new results confirm the previous outcomes for selected spectroscopy observables in light nuclei, such as binding energies, excitation energies, electromagnetic moments, E2 and M 1 reduced transition probabilities, as well as point-nucleon matter rms radii.
The main goal of this paper is to present results of comparison study for the level set and direct Lagrangian methods for computing evolution of the Willmore flow of embedded planar curves. To perform such a study we construct new numerical approximation schemes for both Lagrangian as well as level set methods based on semi-implicit in time and finite/complementary volume in space discretizations. The Lagrangian scheme is stabilized in tangential direction by the asymptotically uniform grid point redistribution. Both methods are experimentally second order accurate. Moreover, we show precise coincidence of both approaches in case of various elastic curve evolutions provided that solving the linear systems in semi-implicit level set method is done in a precise way, redistancing is performed occasionally and the influence of boundary conditions on the level set function is eliminated.
We propose and analyze a constrained level-set method for semi-automatic image segmentation. Our level-set model with constraints on the level-set function enables us to specify which parts of the image lie inside respectively outside the segmented objects. Such a-priori information can be expressed in terms of upper and lower constraints prescribed for the level-set function. Constraints have the same conceptual meaning as initial seeds of the popular graph-cuts based methods for image segmentation. A numerical approximation scheme is based on the complementary-finite volumes method combined with the Projected successive over-relaxation method adopted for solving constrained linear complementarity problems. The advantage of the constrained level-set method is demonstrated on several artificial images as well as on cardiac MRI data.
