ON THE BOREL SUMMABILITY OF FORMAL SOLUTIONS FOR SOME FIRST ORDER SINGULAR PDES WITH IRREGULAR SINGULARITY

In this paper the authors consider the summability of formal solutions for some first order singular PDEs with irregular singularity. They prove that in this case the formal solutions will be divergent, but except a enumerable directions, the formal solutions are Borel summable.     

Quantum and Integral (Co)Bordisms in Partial Differential Equations

Characterizations of quantum bordisms and integral bordisms in PDEs by means of subgroups of usual bordism groups are given. More precisely, it is proved that integral bordism groups can be expressed as extensions of quantum bordism groups and these last are extensions of subgroups of usual bordism groups. Furthermore, a complete cohomological characterization of integral bordism and quantum bordism is given. Applications to particular important classes of PDEs are considered. Finally, we give a complete characterization of integral and quantum singular bordisms by means of some suitable characteristic numbers. Some examples of interesting PDEs which arise in physics are also considered where existence of solutions with change of sectional topology (tunnel effect) is proved. As an application, we relate integral bordism to the spectral term that represents the space of conservation laws for PDEs. This also gives a general method to associate in a natural way a Hopf algebra to any PDE.     

(Co)Bordism Groups in PDEs

We introduce a geometric theory of PDEs, by obtaining existence theorems of smooth and singular solutions. Within this framework, following our previous results on (co)bordisms in PDEs, we give characterizations of quantum and integral (co)bordism groups and relate them to the formal integrability of PDEs. An explicit proof that the usual Thom–Pontryagin construction in (co)bordism theory can be generalized also to a singular integral (co)bordism on the category of differential equations is given. In fact, we prove the existence of a spectrum that characterizes the singular integral (co)bordism groups in PDEs. Moreover, a general method that associates, in a natural way, Hopf algebras (full p-Hopf algebras, 0 p n – 1), to any PDE, recently introduced, is further studied. Applications to particular important classes of PDEs are considered. In particular, we carefully consider the Navier–Stokes equation (NS) and explicitly calculate their quantum and integral bordism groups. An existence theorem of solutions of (NS) with a change in sectional topology is obtained. Relations between integral bordism groups and causal integral manifolds, causal tunnel effects, and the full p-Hopf algebras, 0 p 3, for the Navier–Stokes equation are determined.     

Existence of solutions to a continuum model for hydrostatics of fluid-saturated granular materials

In this letter, we establish an existence theory for an overdetermined system of nonlinear PDEs describing hydrostatics of fluid-saturated granular materials. Our proof consists of three steps: (i) the conduction of an integrability analysis, (ii) the reduction of the governing system to a singular elliptic PDE, for which the existence of solutions can be obtained via weak-convergence methods, and (iii) the development of an existence theory for the original system.     

Some new and short proofs for a class of Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg type inequalities

In this note we provide simple and short proofs for a class of inequalities of Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg type with sharp constants. Our approach suggests some definitions of weighted Sobolev spaces and their embedding into weighted L² spaces. These may be useful in studying solvability of problems involving new singular PDEs.     

MONOTONE ITERATION FOR ELLIPTIC PDEs WITH DISCONTINUOUS NONLINEAR TERMS

In this paper, we use monotone iterative techniques to show the existence of maximal or minimal solutions of some elliptic PDEs with nonlinear discontinuous terms. As the numerical analysis of this PDEs is concerned, we prove the convergence of discrete extremal solutions.     

改进的PNC方法及其在非线性偏微分方程多解问题中的应用

2017年，李昭祥等提出了一种偏牛顿-校正法（Partial Newton-Correction Method，简记为PNC方法），并利用它成功地计算出了三类非线性偏微分方程的多重不稳定解.本文在PNC方法的基础上，提出并发展了一种改进的PNC方法.首先，利用Nehari流形$\mathcal{N}$与零平凡解的可分离性，建立并证明了$\mathcal{N}$的某特殊子流形$\mathcal{M}$上的全局分离定理及其推广（即局部分离定理）.全局分离定理只跟非线性偏微分算子或相应的非线性泛函本身有关，而与具体的计算方法无关.对一些典型的非线性偏微分方程多解问题（比如，Henon方程问题），该全局分离定理的分离条件，经验证是成立的.另一个方面，通过修改或补充原辅助变换的定义，去掉了原辅助变换的奇异性；接着建立并证明了某些非线性偏微分方程问题的新未知解与该非线性偏微分算子零核空间的密切关系；在证明中，去掉了在原奇异变换下所需的标准收敛（standard convergence）假设.最后，计算实例与数值结果验证了改进的PNC方法的可行性和有效性；同时表明子流形$\mathcal{M}$与已知解的可分离性是PNC方法和本文新方法能成功找到多解的关键.

PHYSICS INFORMED NEURAL NETWORKS (PINNs) FOR APPROXIMATING NONLINEAR DISPERSIVE PDEs

We propose a novel algorithm,based on physics-informed neural networks (PINNs) to efficiently approximate solutions of nonlinear dispersive PDEs such as the KdV-Kawahara,Camassa-Holm and Benjamin-Ono equations.The stability of solutions of these dispersive PDEs is leveraged to prove rigorous bounds on the resulting error.We present several numerical experiments to demonstrate that PINNs can approximate solutions of these dispersive PDEs very accurately.     

On generalized Malliavin calculus

The Malliavin derivative, the divergence operator (Skorokhod integral), and the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck operator are extended from the traditional Gaussian setting to nonlinear generalized functionals of white noise. These extensions are related to the new developments in the theory of stochastic PDEs, in particular elliptic PDEs driven by spatial white noise and quantized nonlinear equations.     

The Order Completion Method for Systems of Nonlinear PDEs: Pseudo-topological Perspectives

By setting up appropriate uniform convergence structures, we are able to reformulate the Order Completion Method of Oberguggenberger and Rosinger in a setting that more closely resembles the usual topological constructions for solving PDEs. As an application, we obtain existence and uniqueness results for the solutions of arbitrary continuous, nonlinear PDEs.      

Adaptive Image Zo oming Algorithm Combining Total Variation Minimization and a Second-order Functional

An image zooming algorithm by using partial differential equations(PDEs) is proposed here. It combines the second-order PDE with a fourth-order PDE. The combined algorithm is able to preserve edges and at the same time avoid the blurry effect in smooth regions. An adaptive function is used to combine the two PDEs. Numerical experiments illustrate advantages of the proposed model.     

Homogeneous Hamiltonian operators and the theory of coverings

A new method (by Kersten, Krasil'shchik and Verbovetsky), based on the theory of differential coverings, allows to relate a system of PDEs with a differential operator in such a way that the operator maps conserved quantities into symmetries of the system of PDEs. When applied to a quasilinear first-order system of PDEs and a Dubrovin–Novikov homogeneous Hamiltonian operator the method yields conditions on the operator and the system that have interesting differential and projective geometric interpretations.     

Averaging of Backward Stochastic Differential Equations and Homogenization of Partial Differential Equations with Periodic Coefficients

Abstract

We study the limit of the solutions of systems of semi-linear partial differential equations (PDEs) of second order of parabolic type, with rapidly oscillating periodic coefficients, a singular drift, and singular coefficients of the zero and second order terms. Our basic tool is the approach given by Pardoux [14 Pardoux , E. 1999 . Homogenization of linear and semilinear second order parabolic PDEs with periodic coefficients: a probabilistic approach . J. Funct. Anal. 167 : 498 – 520 . [CSA] [CROSSREF] [Crossref], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]]. In particular, we use the weak convergence of an associated backward stochastic differential equation (BSDE).     

Brownian-time processes: The PDE connection II and the corresponding Feynman-Kac formula

We delve deeper into our study of the connection of Brownian-time processes (BTPs) to fourth-order parabolic PDEs, which we introduced in a recent joint article with W. Zheng. Probabilistically, BTPs and their cousins BTPs with excursions form a unifying class of interesting stochastic processes that includes the celebrated IBM of Burdzy and other new intriguing processes and is also connected to the Markov snake of Le Gall. BTPs also offer a new connection of probability to PDEs that is fundamentally different from the Markovian one. They solve fourth-order PDEs in which the initial function plays an important role in the PDE itself, not only as initial data. We connect two such types of interesting and new PDEs to BTPs. The first is obtained by running the BTP and then integrating along its path, and the second type of PDEs is related to what we call the Feynman-Kac formula for BTPs. A special case of the second type is a step towards a probabilistic solution to linearized Cahn-Hilliard and Kuramoto-Sivashinsky type PDEs, which we tackle in an upcoming paper.

     

Existence of weak positive solutions to a nonlinear PDE system around a triple phase boundary, coupling domain and boundary variables

We consider a 2D nonlinear system of PDEs representing a simplified model of processes near a triple-phase boundary (TPB) in cathode catalyst layer of hydrogen fuel cells. The particularity of this system is the coupling of a variable satisfying a PDE in the interior of the domain with another variable satisfying a differential equation (DE) defined only on the boundary, through an adsorption-desorption equilibrium mechanism. The system includes also an isolated singular boundary condition which models the flux continuity at the contact of the TPB with a subdomain. By freezing certain terms we transform the nonlinear PDE system to an equation, which has a variational formulation. We prove several L^∞ and W1,p a priori estimates and then by using Schauder fixed point theorem we prove the existence of a weak positive bounded solution.     

Error analysis of discrete conservation laws for Hamiltonian PDEs under the central box discretizations

The central box scheme has been the most successful of the multisymplectic integrators for Hamiltonian PDEs. In this paper, we investigate conservative properties of the central box scheme for Hamiltonian PDEs and derive the error formulas of discrete local and global conservation laws of energy and momentum. We apply these results to the nonlinear Schrödinger equation and Klein-Gordon equation. Numerical experiments are presented to verify the theoretical predications.     

Extension of Colombeau algebra to derivatives of arbitrary order , . Application to ODEs and PDEs with entire and fractional derivatives

We give an extension of Colombeau algebra of generalized functions to fractional derivatives. We apply it in solving ODEs and PDEs with entire and fractional derivatives with respect to temporal and spatial variables. We give applications to ODEs and PDEs driven by fractional derivatives of delta distribution.     

Forward–backward SDEs with jumps and classical solutions to nonlocal quasilinear parabolic PDEs

We obtain an existence and uniqueness theorem for fully coupled forward–backward SDEs (FBSDEs) with jumps via the classical solution to the associated quasilinear parabolic partial integro-differential equation (PIDE), and provide the explicit form of the FBSDE solution. Moreover, we embed the associated PIDE into a suitable class of non-local quasilinear parabolic PDEs which allows us to extend the methodology of Ladyzhenskaya et al. (1968) to non-local PDEs of this class. Namely, we obtain the existence and uniqueness of a classical solution to both the Cauchy problem and the initial–boundary value problem for non-local quasilinear parabolic second-order PDEs.     

Some new additive Runge–Kutta methods and their applications

We propose some new additive Runge–Kutta methods of orders ranging from 2 to 4 that may be used for solving some nonlinear system of ODEs, especially for the temporal discretization of some nonlinear systems of PDEs with constraints. Only linear ODEs or PDEs need to be solved at each time step with these new methods.
