Cauchy problem on the plane for the dispersionless Kadomtsev-Petviashvili equation

We construct the formal solution to the Cauchy problem for the dispersionless Kadomtsev-Petviashvili equation as an application of the inverse scattering transform for the vector field corresponding to a Newtonian particle in a time-dependent potential. This is in full analogy with the Cauchy problem for the Kadomtsev-Petviashvili equation, associated with the inverse scattering transform of the time-dependent Schrödinger operator for a quantum particle in a time-dependent potential.     

Exact Green's function of the equations of quantum mechanics in an electromagnetic field. I

An exact Green's function of the Cauchy problem in arbitrary (nonparallel) stationary homogeneous electrical and magnetic fields is constructed for the Klein-Gordon-Fock and Dirac equations and for the Pauli equation in arbitrary nonstationary fields, on the basis of a single approach using the method of the canonical Maslov operator (extension of the WKB method to the multidimensional case) and a Fock idea about the proper time in relativitic mechanics.     

Generation of large-scale coherent structures in the KPZ equation and multidimensional Burgers turbulence

The development of multiple-scale random fluctuations in the problem of interface growth is analyzed. The evolution of the interface is described by the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ) equation, and the gradient vector field satisfies the multidimensional Burgers equation. It is shown that the nonlinear effects in the evolution of statistically inhomogeneous multiple-scale fluctuations lead to the generation of large-scale coherent structures. Due to combined effects of nonlinearity and dissipation, localized disturbances tend to exhibit universal long-time behavior.     

Some new results for the multidimensional Landau-Lifshitz equations

In this Letter, we study the multidimensional Landau-Lifshitz equations for two cases of external magnetic fields depending on both time and position, and obtain some new interesting results. For the strong degenerate Landau-Lifshitz equation, we obtain a new blow up solution.     

The Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov system as a deformation of the isomonodromy problem

It is shown that the Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov (KZ) equation (and corresponding vector bundle) can be viewed as a quantization of the isomonodromy problem for differential equations with several singular points.     

Equation for wave processes in inhomogeneous moving media and functional solution of the acoustic tomography problem based on it

The paper considers the derivation of the wave equation and Helmholtz equation for solving the tomographic problem of reconstruction combined scalar-vector inhomogeneities describing perturbations of the sound velocity and absorption, the vector field of flows, and perturbations of the density of the medium. Restrictive conditions under which the obtained equations are meaningful are analyzed. Results of numerical simulation of the two-dimensional functional-analytical Novikov–Agaltsov algorithm for reconstructing the flow velocity using the the obtained Helmholtz equation are presented.     

Inverse problem of the variational calculus for higher KdV equations

It is shown that the usual Hamilton's variational principle supplemented by the methodology of the integer-programming problem can be used to construct expressions for the Lagrangian densities of higher KdV fields. This is demonstrated with special emphasis on the second and third members of the hierarchy. However, the method is general enough for applications to equations of any order. The expressions for Lagrangian densities are used to calculate results for Hamiltonian densities that characterize Zakharov-Faddeev-Gardner equation.

Vector functional spaces related to the electromagnetic diffraction problem in a conical domain and their properties

A special vector functional space is defined for a weak formulation of the diffraction problem in a cone. For this space, a number of embedding theorems are proved. It is also shown that the diffraction problem is reduced to the Fredholm equation.     

Gauge fixing problem in the conformal QED

The gauge fixing problem in the conformal (spinor and scalar) QED is examined. For the analysis, we generalize Dirac's manifestly conformal-covariant formalism. It is shown that the (vector and matter) fields must obey a certain mixed (conformal and gauge) type of transformation law in order to fix the local gauge symmetry preserving the conformal invariance in the Lagrangian.     

Essential variables in the integrability problem of planar vector fields

This Letter is devoted to the integrability problem of planar nonlinear differential equations. We introduce a new method to detect local analytic integrability or to construct a singular series expansion of the first integral around a singular point for planar vector fields. The method allows to find new variables (essential variables) where the integrability problem is more feasible. The new method can be used in different context and is an alternative to all the methods developed up to now for any particular case.

Physical and mathematical modeling of the electron-beam-induced charging of ferroelectrics during the process of domain-structure switching

The results of modeling the dynamic charging processes that arise when ferroelectrics are under the action of an electron beam in a scanning electron microscope are presented. Implementation of the model is based on simultaneous solution of the continuity equation and Poisson equation with allowance for the radiation-stimulated intrinsic conductivity of the irradiated sample and with an initial charge distribution determined using the Monte Carlo method. The multidimensional boundary evolutionary problem is solved using grid methods. The model permits one to study the dynamics of the process of the electron-beam-induced charging of ferroelectrics. Estimates for the values of fields generated by charges accumulated during the irradiation process are presented for a set of modeling parameters corresponding to physical data obtained in experimental observations of the polarization switch for a ferroelectric lithium niobate crystal.     

Lie-symmetry vector fields for linear and nonlinear wave equations

We derive the Lie symmetry vector fields for the linear wave equation u=0 and nonlinear wave equation u=u ³. The conformal vector fields for the underlying metric tensor fieldg are also given. We construct the conservation laws and derive similarity solutions. Furthermore, we perform a Painlevé test for the nonlinear wave equation and discuss whether Lie-Bäcklund vector fields exist.     

The Riemann boundary problem on a torus and the inverse scattering problem for the Landau-Lifschitz equation

The Landau-Lifschitz equation for ferromagnets is written as a compatibility condition of two linear differential equations. The inverse scattering problem for this system is ruduced to the matrix Riemann boundary problem on a torus and then to a certain Fredholm integral equation. The N-soliton solitoons are also obtaine.     

Classical mechanics: Inverse problem and symmetries

The inverse problem of classical mechanics, i.e. the variational formulation of a given Newton equation is presented “in the broadest generality” in the framework of the Cartan's exterior differential systems. The relation between the second degree symmetries (i.e. the symmetry bivector fields) of the Newton equation and the first integrals of motion is demonstrated.     

Structure-preserving algorithms for the Duffing equation

In this paper, the dissipative and the forced terms of the Duffing equation are considered as the perturbations of nonlinear Hamiltonian equations and the perturbational effect is indicated by parameter ε. Firstly, based on the gradient- Hamiltonian decomposition theory of vector fields, by using splitting methods, this paper constructs structure-preserving algorithms （SPAs） for the Duffing equation. Then, according to the Liouville formula, it proves that the Jacobian matrix determinants of the SPAs are equal to that of the exact flow of the Duffing equation. However, considering the explicit Runge Kutta methods, this paper finds that there is an error term of order p＋l for the Jacobian matrix determinants. The volume evolution law of a given region in phase space is discussed for different algorithms, respectively. As a result, the sum of Lyapunov exponents is exactly invariable for the SPAs proposed in this paper. Finally, through numerical experiments, relative norm errors and absolute energy errors of phase trajectories of the SPAs and the Heun method （a second-order Runge-Kutta method） are compared. Computational results illustrate that the SPAs are evidently better than the Heun method when e is small or equal to zero.
