A Finite Difference Scheme for Blow-Up Solutions of Nonlinear Wave Equations

<正>We consider a finite difference scheme for a nonlinear wave equation,whose solutions may lose their smoothness in finite time,i.e.,blow up in finite time.In order to numerically reproduce blow-up solutions,we propose a rule for a time-stepping, which is a variant of what was successfully used in the case of nonlinear parabolic equations.A numerical blow-up time is defined and is proved to converge,under a certain hypothesis,to the real blow-up time as the grid size tends to zero.

Nonconforming Finite Element Methods for the Constrained Optimal Control Problems Governed by Nonsmooth Elliptic Equations

In this paper,nonconforming finite element methods(FEMs)are proposed for the constrained optimal control problems(OCPs)governed by the nonsmooth elliptic equations,in which the popular EQr1 ot element is employed to approximate the state and adjoint state,and the piecewise constant element is used to approximate the control.Firstly,the convergence and superconvergence properties for the nonsmooth elliptic equation are obtained by introducing an auxiliary problem.Secondly,the goal-oriented error estimates are obtained for the objective function through establishing the negative norm error estimate.Lastly,the methods are extended to some other well-known nonconforming elements.

Neighbor Sum Distinguishing Total Coloring of Triangle Free IC-planar Graphs

A graph is IC-planar if it admits a drawing in the plane such that each edge is crossed at most once and two crossed edges share no common end-vertex.A proper total-k-coloring of G is called neighbor sum distinguishing if∑_c(u)≠∑_c(v)for each edge uv∈E(G),where∑_c(v)denote the sum of the color of a vertex v and the colors of edges incident with v.The least number k needed for such a total coloring of G,denoted byχ∑"is the neighbor sum distinguishing total chromatic number.Pilsniak and Wozniak conjecturedχ∑"(G)≤Δ(G)+3 for any simple graph with maximum degreeΔ(G).By using the famous Combinatorial Nullstellensatz,we prove that above conjecture holds for any triangle free IC-planar graph with△(G)≥7.Moreover,it holds for any triangle free planar graph withΔ(G)≥6.     

Zeros of univariate interval polynomials

Polynomials with perturbed coefficients, which can be regarded as interval polynomials, are very common in the area of scientific computing due to floating point operations in a computer environment. In this paper, the zeros of interval polynomials are investigated. We show that, for a degree n interval polynomial, the number of interval zeros is at most n and the number of complex block zeros is exactly n if multiplicities are counted. The boundaries of complex block zeros on a complex plane are analyzed. Numeric algorithms to bound interval zeros and complex block zeros are presented.     

On the zeros of the spectrogram of white noise

In a recent paper, Flandrin [16] proposed filtering based on the zeros of a spectrogram with Gaussian window. His results are based on empirical observations on the distribution of the zeros of the spectrogram of white Gaussian noise. These zeros tend to be uniformly spread over the time–frequency plane, and not to clutter. Our contributions are threefold: we rigorously define the zeros of the spectrogram of continuous white Gaussian noise, we explicitly characterize their statistical distribution, and we investigate the computational and statistical underpinnings of the practical implementation of signal detection based on the statistics of the zeros of the spectrogram. The crux of our analysis is that the zeros of the spectrogram of white Gaussian noise correspond to the zeros of a Gaussian analytic function, a topic of recent independent mathematical interest [24].     

Enclosing all zeros of an analytic function — A rigorous approach

We present a method to find all zeros of an analytic function in a rectangular domain. The approach is based on finding guaranteed enclosures rather than approximations of the zeros. Well-isolated simple zeros are determined fast and with high accuracy. Clusters of zeros can in many cases be distinguished from multiple zeros by applying the argument principle to sufficiently high-order derivatives of the function. We illustrate the proposed method through five examples of varying levels of complexity.     

Enclosing clusters of zeros of polynomials

Lagrange interpolation and partial fraction expansion can be used to derive a Gerschgorin-type theorem that gives simple and powerful a posteriori error bounds for the zeros of a polynomial if approximations to all zeros are available. Compared to bounds from a corresponding eigenvalue problem, a factor of at least two is gained.The accuracy of the bounds is analyzed, and special attention is given to ensure that the bounds work well not only for single zeros but also for multiple zeros and clusters of close zeros.A Rouché-type theorem is also given, that in many cases reduces the bound even further.     

On the existence of zeros of monotone operators in reflexive Banach spaces

This paper is devoted to the investigation on the existence of zeros of monotone operators in reflexive Banach spaces. We first present a sufficient condition under which single-valued monotone operators have zeros. The obtained theorem includes a previous result as a special case. A necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of zeros of maximal monotone operators is presented.     

On the zeros of basic finite Hankel transforms

In this article we prove that the basic finite Hankel transform whose kernel is the third-type Jackson q-Bessel function has only infinitely many real and simple zeros, provided that q satisfies a condition additional to the standard one. We also study the asymptotic behavior of the zeros. The obtained results are applied to investigate the zeros of q-Bessel functions as well as the zeros of q-trigonometric functions. A basic analog of a theorem of G. Pólya (1918) on the zeros of sine and cosine transformations is also given.     

To solving multiparameter problems of algebra. 10. Computing zeros of a scalar polynomial

The paper considers the problem of computing zeros of scalar polynomials in several variables. The zeros of a polynomial are subdivided into the regular (eigen-and mixed) zeros and the singular ones. An algorithm for computing regular zeros, based on a decomposition of a given polynomial into a product of primitive polynomials, is suggested. The algorithm is applied to solving systems of nonlinear algebraic equations. Bibliography: 5 titles. __________ Translated from Zapiski Nauchnykh Seminarov POMI, Vol. 346, 2007, pp. 119–130.     

The Haar condition and multiplicity of zeros

Summary In this paper the problem is investigated of how to take the (possibly noninteger) multiplicity of zeros into account in the Haar condition for a linear function space on a given interval. Therefore, a distinction is made between regular and singular points of the interval, and a notion of geometric multiplicity, which always is a positive integer, is introduced. It is pointed out that, for regular zeros (i.e., zeros situate at regular points), aq-fold zero (in the sense that its geometric multiplicity equalsq), counts forq distinct zeros in the Haar condition. For singular zeros (i.e., zeros situated at singular points), this geometric multiplicity has to be diminished by some well-determinable integer.     

Asymptotics of the zeros of degenerate hypergeometric functions

We find the asymptotics of the zeros of the degenerate hypergeometric function (the Kummer function) Φ(a, c; z) and indicate a method for numbering all of its zeros consistent with the asymptotics. This is done for the whole class of parameters a and c such that the set of zeros is infinite. As a corollary, we obtain the class of sine-type functions with unfamiliar asymptotics of their zeros. Also we prove a number of nonasymptotic properties of the zeros of the function Φ.     

Numerical computation of stability and detection of Hopf bifurcations of steady state solutions of delay differential equations

The characteristic equation of a system of delay differential equations (DDEs) is a nonlinear equation with infinitely many zeros. The stability of a steady state solution of such a DDE system is determined by the number of zeros of this equation with positive real part. We present a numerical algorithm to compute the rightmost, i.e., stability determining, zeros of the characteristic equation. The algorithm is based on the application of subspace iteration on the time integration operator of the system or its variational equations. The computed zeros provide insight into the system’s behaviour, can be used for robust bifurcation detection and for efficient indirect calculation of bifurcation points.
