Strong uniqueness and second order convergence in nonlinear discrete approximation

Summary Strong uniqueness has proved to be an important condition in demonstrating the second order convergence of the generalised Gauss-Newton method for discrete nonlinear approximation problems [4]. Here we compare strong uniqueness with the multiplier condition which has also been used for this purpose. We describe strong uniqueness in terms of the local geometry of the unit ball and properties of the problem functions at the minimum point. When the norm is polyhedral we are able to give necessary and sufficient conditions for the second order convergence of the generalised Gauss-Newton algorithm.     

The “do nothing” problem for Boussinesq fluids

In this note we establish the local existence and global uniqueness of strong solutions to the Boussinesq approximation for incompressible fluids in three-dimensional open channels considering the “do nothing” conditions prescribed at the in/outlets. The existence proof rests on estimates for the corresponding linear problems followed by a fixed point argument. The uniqueness is proved using the technique of Gronwall lemma.     

Uniform local strong uniqueness on finite subsets

Summary LetF be an approximating function with parameter setP, a subset ofn-space, on an intervalI satisfying the hypotheses of Meinardus and Schwedt (the local Haar condition and propertyZ) which result in an alternating theory. Consider uniform approximation to functionf onX, a finite subset ofI. A sufficient condition is given, involving best parameters being in a closed set, on which the degree isn that a family of functionsf have a uniform (parameterwise) local strong uniqueness constant > 0. The necessity of the condition in this and related problems, in particular ordinary rational approximation on an interval, is examined.

In this paper, we establish a new type of alternation theory for more general restricted ranges Chebyshev approximation with equalities. The uniqueness and strong uniqueness theorems are given. Applying the results, we obtain the alternation theorem and uniqueness theorem for best coposilive approximation.     

Strong uniqueness of best approximations in spaces of bounded linear operators

The present paper is concerned with problems of the strong uniqueness of thebest approximation and the characterization of a uniqueness element in operator spaces.Some results on the strong uniqueness of the best approximation operator from RS-setsare proved and the uniqueness element of a sun in the compact operator space from c_0to c_0 is characterized by the strict Kolmogorov's condition. Some recent results due toLewicki and others are extended and improved.

Global and blow-up solutions for a quasilinear hyperbolic equation with strong damping

In this paper, we study a quasilinear hyperbolic equation with strong damping. Firstly, by use of the successive approximation method and a series of classical estimates, we prove the local existence and uniqueness of a weak solution. Secondly, via some inequalities, the potential method and the concave method, we derive the asymptotic and blow-up behavior of the weak solution with different conditions.

On the Problem of Best Rational Approximation with Interpolating Constraints (I)

The aim of this conjoint paper is to discuss the problem of the best rational approximation with interpolating constraints. In part I, we give the necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of the best rational approximations and establish some characterization theorem for such approximations. The problems of uniqueness, the properties for the set of best approximations, strong uniqueness and continuity of best approximation operator are considered in Part II. The results obtained in this paper are the completion and extension of those given in [1].     

Local rotundity structure of Cesàro-Orlicz sequence spaces

Some criteria for extreme points and strong U-points in Cesàro-Orlicz spaces are given. In consequence we find a Cesàro-Orlicz sequence space different from c₀ which has no extreme points. Some examples show that in these spaces the notion of the strong U-point is essentially stronger than the notion of the extreme point. Various examples presented in this paper show that there are some differences between criteria for extreme points and strong U-points in Orlicz spaces and in Cesàro-Orlicz spaces. We also show that the uniqueness of the local best approximation needs the notion of SU-point, that is, the notion of the extreme point is not strong enough here.     

Vibrations of elastic string with nonhomogeneous material

In this paper we analyze from the mathematical point of view a model for small vertical vibrations of an elastic string with fixed ends and the density of the material being not constant. We employ techniques of functional analysis, mainly a theorem of compactness for the analysis of the approximation of Faedo-Galerkin method. We obtain strong global solutions with restrictions on the initial data u₀ and u₁, uniqueness of solutions and a rate decay estimate for the energy.     

On Best Simultaneous Approximation

The problem is considered of best approximation of finite number of functions simultaneously. For a very general class of norms, characterization results are derived. The main part of the paper is concerned with proving uniqueness and strong uniqueness theorems. For a particular subclass, which includes the important special case of the Chebyshev norm, a characterization is given of a uniqueness element.

Yosida approximations for multivalued stochastic partial differential equations driven by Lévy noise on a Gelfand triple

We prove the existence and uniqueness of solutions for a class of multivalued stochastic partial differential equations with maximal monotone drift on Banach space driven by multiplicative Lévy noise. We also establish the strong convergence result for solutions of the approximating equations where the maximal monotone drift operator is replaced by its Yosida approximation. As an application, the existence and uniqueness of solutions for multivalued stochastic porous medium equations is obtained.     

Global existence of strong solutions to the Cauchy problem for a 1D radiative gas

We consider a one-dimensional radiation hydrodynamics model in the case of the equilibrium diffusion approximation which is described by the compressible Navier-Stokes system with the additional terms in the pressure and internal energy respectively, which embody the effect of radiation. Under the physical growth conditions on the heat conductivity, we establish the existence and uniqueness of strong solutions to the Cauchy problem with large initial data, where the initial density and velocity may have differing constant states at infinity. Moreover, we show that if there is no vacuum in the initial density, then, the vacuum and concentration of the density will never occur in any finite time.

非定常Navier-Stokes方程的稳定化特征有限元法

1引言特征线有限元法是求解对流扩散问题的有效方法。在处理对流占优问题时,表现出了很好的稳定性[8]。对于求解Navier-Stokes方程,文[9]建立了特征有限元格式,并进行了详细分析,但得到的收敛阶O(h~m △t (h~(m 1)/△t))只是拟丰满的。文[10]对此作了非线性稳定性的进一步分析,给出了关于速度和压力的最优误差估计。但目前所有的特征有限元法都要求有限元空间满足inf-sup条件,这就排除了工程实际应用计算方便的低阶有     

On approximate solution of stochastic delay evolution equation in infinite dimensions

In [6] [7], the coefficients of given equation are supposed to be Lipschitz continuity or to be a bit weaker than Lipschitz continuity for establishing existence and uniqueness of the solution. In this paper, we show that, under the assumption of so-called pathwise uniqueness to the equation, a weaker restriction to coefficients than these mentioned above will recapture the convergence of Carathéodory approximation of the equation in the strong sense.
