Recovery of An Unknown Flux in Parabolic Problems with Nonstandard Boundary Conditions: Error Estimates

In this paper, we consider a 2nd order semilinear parabolic initial boundary value problem (IBVP) on a bounded domain ^N, with nonstandard boundary conditions (BCs). More precisely, at some part of the boundary we impose a Neumann BC containing an unknown additive space-constant (t), accompanied with a nonlocal (integral) Dirichlet side condition.We design a numerical scheme for the approximation of a weak solution to the IBVP and derive error estimates for the approximation of the solution u and also of the unknown function .     

Isoperimetric inequalities in a boundary value problem on a Riemannian manifold

In this paper the problem u+1=0 in ,u=0 on is considered. Here is a finite domain on a Riemannian manifold and the associated Laplace-Beltrami operator. By means of maximum principles isoperimetric bounds for the maximum ofu and the maximum of the absolute value of the gradient ofu, as well as some related bounds are derived.

Compressible flow induced by the transient motion of a wavemaker

The effect of fluid compressibility on the evolution of the pressure distribution and free surface elevation, following the initiation of a horizontal motion of a vertical wavemaker, is analysed. This effect is significant even in a liquid (like water) when the time scale of the motion is very short (e.g. impulsive motions).In the leading order the present problem is analogous to that of supersonic flow about a thin wing, thus the solution is represented by means of an appropriate supersonic source distribution. Closed-form results are obtained for the case of impulsive motion (i.e. a step function velocity). The pressure field corresponds to systems of double rarefaction and double compression waves traversing the fluid domain intermittently. Following the passage of a rarefaction (compression) wave, the free surface becomes locally concave (convex). The resulting free surface profile consists of an elongating wavetrain in front of a jet riding up the vertical wall.On the compressible time-scale the pressure and velocity fields approach a steady long-time limit. This limit corresponds to the short-time incompressible flow prevailing after the attenuation of the pressure waves. The spatial nonuniformity of the asymptotic expansion in the neighbourhood of the waterline is briefly discussed.     

The Trace Conjecture – A Counterexample

In the paper Geometric K-Theory for Lie Groups and Foliations, Baum and Connes conjecture in a remark following Corollary 2 of their famous Isomorphism conjecture that for a finitely generated group with torsion, the trace map tr: K₀(C^*)R maps K₀(C^*) onto the additive subgroup of Q generated by all rational numbers of the form 1/n where n is the order of a finite subgroup of . We construct a counterexample to this conjecture.     

Isogeny Covariant Differential Modular Forms and the Space of Elliptic Curves up to Isogeny

The purpose of this article is to develop the theory of differential modular forms introduced by A. Buium. The main points are the construction of many isogeny covariant differential modular forms and some auxiliary (nonisogeny covariant) forms and an extension of the classical theory of Serre differential operators on modular forms to a theory of -Serre differential operators on differential modular forms. As an application, we shall give a geometric realization of the space of elliptic curves up to isogeny.

Central Limit Theorems for dependent variables. I

Summary This paper gives a flexible approach to proving the Central Limit Theorem (C.L.T.) for triangular arrays of dependent random variables (r.v.s) which satisfy a weak mixing condition called -mixing. Roughly speaking, an array of real r.v.s is said to be -mixing if linear combinations of its past and future are asymptotically independent. All the usual mixing conditions (such as strong mixing, absolute regularity, uniform mixing, -mixing and -mixing) are special cases of -mixing. Linear processes are shown to be -mixing under weak conditions. The main result makes no assumption of stationarity. A secondary result generalises a C.L.T. that Rosenblatt gave for strong mixing samples which are nearly second order stationary.

New elliptic potentials

We construct all tangential covers as zeroes of a particular set of polynomials. The resulting pointed curves give rise, through the Krichever dictionary, to elliptic KP solitons. We then give a criterion to detect the so-called hyperelliptic-tangential covers, which give rise to elliptic KdV solitons. Finally we construct new examples of the latter covers and write down the corresponding (doubly periodic finite-gap) source potentials.Dedicated to the memory of J.-L. Verdier
