Processing streaming data as they arrive is often necessary for high dimensional data analysis. In this paper, we analyze the convergence of a subspace online PCA iteration, as a followup of the recent work of Li, Wang, Liu, and Zhang [Math. Program., Ser. B, DOI 10.1007/s10107-017-1182-z] who considered the case for the most significant principal component only, i.e., a single vector. Under the sub-Gaussian assumption, we obtain a finite-sample error bound that closely matches the minimax information lower bound of Vu and Lei [Ann. Statist. 41:6 (2013), 2905-2947].

In this paper, we study intermittent behaviors of coupled piecewise-expanding map lattices with two nodes and a weak coupling. We show that the successive phase transition between ordered and disordered phases occurs for almost every orbit. That is, we prove $\liminf_{n\rightarrow \infty}| x_1(n)-x_2(n)|=0$ and $\limsup_{n\rightarrow \infty}| x_1(n)-x_2(n)|\ge c_0>0$, where $x_1(n), x_2(n)$ correspond to the coordinates of two nodes at the iterative step $n$. We also prove the same conclusion for weakly coupled tent-map lattices with any multi-nodes.

We develop a method searching for quasi-conformal maps from point-cloud surfaces to Euclidean plane. The maps can be got by directly solving Beltrami equation with proper boundary condition or solving optimization problem of the variational formu- lation. The point integral methd (PIM) is used for discretization on point clouds. Numerical experiments suggest that the method converges as the density of points in- creases.

In this paper, we introduce a nonlocal model for linear steady Stokes system with physical no-slip boundary condition. We use the idea of volume constraint to enforce the no-slip boundary condition. We prove that the nonlocal model is well-posed and the solution of the nonlocal system converges to the solution of the original Stokes system when the nonlocality vanishes.

In this paper, we give an integral approximation for the elliptic operators with anisotropic coecients on smooth manifold. Using the integral approximation, the elliptic equation is tranformed to an integral equation. The integral approximation preserves the symmetry and coercivity of the original elliptic operator. Based on these good properties, we prove the convergence between the solutions of the integral equation and the original elliptic equation.
