The Bergman–Sce transform for slice monogenic functions

In a recent paper, we showed that the classical Bergman theory admits two possible formulations for the class of slice regular functions with quaternionic values. In the so called formulation of the first kind, we provide a Bergman kernel which is defined on and is a reproducing kernel. In the so called formulation of the second kind, we use the Representation Formula for slice regular functions to define a second Bergman kernel; this time the kernel is still defined on U, but the integral representation of f is based on an integral computed only on and the integral does not depend on , (here denotes the sphere unit of purely imaginary quaternions, and represents the complex plane with imaginary unit I). In this paper, we extend the second formulation of the Bergman theory to the case of slice monogenic functions and we focus our attention on the so‐called Bergman–Sce transform. This integral transform is defined by using the Bergman kernel and the Sce mapping theorem and associates to every slice monogenic function f, an axially monogenic function .

A new Beale–Kato–Majda criteria for the 3D magneto‐micropolar fluid equations in the Orlicz–Morrey space

In this work, we are interested in the study of regularity for the three‐dimensional magneto‐micropolar fluid equations in Orlicz–Morrey spaces. If the velocity field satisfies or the gradient field of velocity satisfies then we show that the solution remains smooth on [0,T]. In view of the embedding with 2 < p < 3 ∕ r and P > 1, we see that our result extends the result of Yuan and that of Gala. Copyright © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

ψ‐Hyperholomorphic functions and a Kolosov–Muskhelishvili formula

Holomorphic function theory is an effective tool for solving linear elasticity problems in the complex plane. The displacement and stress field are represented in terms of holomorphic functions, well known as Kolosov–Muskhelishvili formulae. In , similar formulae were already developed in recent papers, using quaternionic monogenic functions as a generalization of holomorphic functions. However, the existing representations use functions from to , embedded in . It is not completely appropriate for applications in . In particular, one has to remove many redundancies while constructing basis solutions. To overcome that problem, we propose an alternative Kolosov–Muskhelishvili formula for the displacement field by means of a (paravector‐valued) monogenic, an anti‐monogenic and a ψ‐hyperholomorphic function.

By using the variant fountain theorem, we obtain an existence criterion to guarantee that the aforementioned system has infinitely many homoclinic solutions under the assumption that W(n,x) is asymptotically quadratic as | x | → + ∞ .

Pseudo asymptotically periodic solutions for Volterra integro‐differential equations

In this paper, we propose a new class of functions called pseudo ‐asymptotically ω‐periodic function in the Stepanov sense and explore its properties in Banach spaces including composition results. Furthermore, the existence and uniqueness of the pseudo ‐asymptotically ω‐periodic mild solutions to Volterra integro‐differential equations is investigated.

We prove the existence of global pullback attractor, and we exhibit a functional to evolution process generated by this problem that decreases along of solutions. Assuming the parameter β is small enough, we show that the origin is locally pullback asymptotically stable. Copyright © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Weak Musielak–Orlicz Hardy spaces and applications

Let satisfy that , for any given , is an Orlicz function and is a Muckenhoupt weight uniformly in . In this article, the authors introduce the weak Musielak–Orlicz Hardy space via the grand maximal function and then obtain its vertical or its non–tangential maximal function characterizations. The authors also establish other real‐variable characterizations of , respectively, in terms of the atom, the molecule, the Lusin area function, the Littlewood–Paley g‐function or ‐function. All these characterizations for weighted weak Hardy spaces (namely, and with and ) are new and part of these characterizations even for weak Hardy spaces (namely, and with ) are also new. As an application, the boundedness of Calderón–Zygmund operators from to in the critical case is presented.

On decay estimates of the 3D nematic liquid crystal flows in critical Besov spaces

In this paper, we develop the energy argument in homogeneous Besov space framework to study the large time behavior of global‐in‐time strong solutions to the Cauchy problem of the three‐dimensional incompressible nematic liquid crystal flows with low regularity assumptions on initial data. More precisely, if the small initial data with 1 < p < ∞ and further assume that with 1 < q≤p and , then the global‐in‐time strong solution (u,d) to the nematic liquid crystal flows admits the following temporal decay rate: Here, is a constant unit vector. The highlight of our argument is to show that the ‐norms (with ) of solution are preserved along time evolution. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Stability and Hopf bifurcation of a delayed virus infection model with Beddington–DeAngelis infection function and cytotoxic T‐lymphocyte immune response

In this paper, a class of virus infection model with Beddington–DeAngelis infection function and cytotoxic T‐lymphocyte immune response is investigated. Time delay in the immune response term is incorporated into the model. We show that the dynamics of the model are determined by the basic reproduction number and the immune response reproduction number . If , then the infection‐free equilibrium is globally asymptotically stable. If , then the immune‐free equilibrium is globally asymptotically stable. If , then the stability of the interior equilibrium is investigated. We conclude that Hopf bifurcation occurs as the time delay passes through a critical value. Numerical simulations are carried out to support our theoretical conclusion well. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Let be a bounded open domain of . Let denote the outward unit normal of . We assume that the Steklov problem Δu = 0 in and on has a simple eigenvalue of . Then we consider an annular domain obtained by removing from a small‐cavity size of ε > 0, and we show that under proper assumptions there exists a real valued and real analytic function defined in an open neighborhood of (0,0) in and such that is a simple eigenvalue for the Steklov problem Δu = 0 in and on for all ε > 0 small enough, and such that . Here denotes the outward unit normal of , and δ_2,2 ≡ 1 and δ_2,n ≡ 0 if n ≥ 3. Then related statements have been proved for corresponding eigenfunctions.

Linear statistics of matrix ensembles in classical background

Given a joint probability density function of N real random variables, , obtained from the eigenvector–eigenvalue decomposition of N × N random matrices, one constructs a random variable, the linear statistics, defined by the sum of smooth functions evaluated at the eigenvalues or singular values of the random matrix, namely, . For the joint PDFs obtained from the Gaussian and Laguerre ensembles, we compute, in this paper, the moment‐generating function , where denotes expectation value over the orthogonal (β = 1) and symplectic (β = 4) ensembles, in the form one plus a Schwartz function, none vanishing over for the Gaussian ensembles and for the Laguerre ensembles. These are ultimately expressed in the form of the determinants of identity plus a scalar operator, from which we obtained the large N asymptotic of the linear statistics from suitably scaled F(·).
