Numerical Approximation of a Reaction-Diffusion System with Fast Reversible Reaction

The authors consider the finite volume approximation of a reaction-diffusion system with fast reversible reaction.It is deduced from a priori estimates that the approximate solution converges to the weak solution of the reaction-diffusion problem and satisfies estimates which do not depend on the kinetic rate.It follows that the solution converges to the solution of a nonlinear diffusion problem,as the size of the volume elements and the time steps converge to zero while the kinetic rate tends to infinity.

New Monotonicity Formulae for Semi-linear Elliptic and Parabolic Systems

The authors establish a general monotonicity formula for the following elliptic system
△ui＋fi（x,ui,…,um）=0 in Ω,
where Ω belong to belong to R^n is a regular domain, （fi（x, u1,... ,um）） = △↓F（x,→↑u）, F（x,→↑u ） is a given smooth function of x ∈ R^n and →↑u = （u1,…,um） ∈ R^m. The system comes from understanding the stationary case of Ginzburg-Landau model. A new monotonicity formula is also set up for the following parabolic system
δtui-△ui-fi（x,ui,…,um）=0 in（ti,t2）×R^n,
where t1 〈 t2 are two constants, （fi（x,→↑u ） is given as above. The new monotonicity formulae are focused more attention on the monotonicity of nonlinear terms. The new point of the results is that an index β is introduced to measure the monotonicity of the nonlinear terms in the problems. The index β in the study of monotonieity formulae is useful in understanding the behavior of blow-up sequences of solutions. Another new feature is that the previous monotonicity formulae are extended to nonhomogeneous nonlinearities. As applications, the Ginzburg-Landau model and some different generalizations to the free boundary problems are studied.

A note on parameterized Marcinkiewicz integrals with variable kernels

In this paper,the parameterized Marcinkiewicz integrals with variable kernels defined by μΩ^ρ（f）（x）=（∫0^∞│∫│1-y│≤t Ω（x,x-y）/│x-y│^n-p f（y）dy│^2dt/t1＋2p）^1/2 are investigated.It is proved that if Ω∈ L∞（R^n） × L^r（S^n-1）（r〉（n-n1p＇/n） is an odd function in the second variable y,then the operator μΩ^ρ is bounded from L^p（R^n） to L^p（R^n） for 1 〈 p ≤ max{（n＋1）/2,2}.It is also proved that,if Ω satisfies the L^1-Dini condition,then μΩ^ρ is of type（p,p） for 1 〈 p ≤ 2,of the weak type（1,1） and bounded from H1 to L1.     

Applications of Bernstein-Durrmeyer operators in estimating the covering number

The paper deals with estimates of the covering number for some Mercer kernel Hilbert space with Bernstein-Durrmeyer operators. We first give estimates of l2-norm of Mercer kernel matrices reproducing by the kernels K(α,β)(x,y):=∞∑k=0 C(α,β)k Qk(α,β)(x)Qk(α,β)(y),where Qα,βk(x) are the Jacobi polynomials of order k on (0, 1), Cα,βk > 0 are real numbers,and from which give the lower and upper bounds of the covering number for some particular reproducing kernel Hilbert space reproduced by K(α,β)(x,y).     

Strong Convergence for Weighted Sums of Negatively Associated Arrays

Let {Xni} be an array of rowwise negatively associated random variables and Tnk=k∑i=1 i^a Xni for a ≥ -1, Snk =∑｜i｜≤k Ф（i/nη）1/nη Xni for η∈（0,1],where Ф is some function. The author studies necessary and sufficient conditions of ∞∑n=1 AnP（max 1≤k≤n｜Tnk｜〉εBn）〈∞ and ∞∑n=1 CnP（max 0≤k≤mn｜Snk｜〉εDn）〈∞ for all ε 〉 0, where An, Bn, Cn and Dn are some positive constants, mn ∈ N with mn /nη →∞. The results of Lanzinger and Stadtmfiller in 2003 are extended from the i.i.d, case to the case of the negatively associated, not necessarily identically distributed random variables. Also, the result of Pruss in 2003 on independent variables reduces to a special case of the present paper; furthermore, the necessity part of his result is complemented.

In the present paper, we give the explicit formula of the principal part of n ∑ k=0 ([k]q -[n]qx)sxk n-k-1 ∏ m=0 (1-qmx) with respect to [n]q for any integer s and q ∈ (0,1]. And, using the expressions, we obtain saturation theorems for Bn(f,qn;x) approximating to f(x) ∈ C[0,1], 0 < qn ≤ 1, qn → 1.

Upper embeddability,edge independence number and girth

Combined with the edge-connectivity, this paper investigates the relationship between the edge independence number and upper embeddability. And we obtain the following result: Let G be a k-edge-connected graph with girth g. If α '(G)≤((k-1)2+2) [g/2]+(1-(-1)n)/2((k-1)(k-2)+1)-1,where k=1,2,3, and α(G) denotes the edge independence number of G, then G is upper embeddable and the upper bound is best possible. And it has generalized the relative results.     

The fundamental theory of abstract majorization inequalities

Using the axiomatic method,abstract concepts such as abstract mean, abstract convex function and abstract majorization are proposed. They are the generalizations of concepts of mean, convex function and majorization, respectively. Through the logical deduction, the fundamental theorems about abstract majorization inequalities are established as follows: for arbitrary abstract mean Σ and Σ , and abstract Σ → Σ strict convex function f(x) on the interval I, if xi, yi ∈ I (i = 1, 2, . . . , n) satisfy that (x1...

In the present paper, we deal with the existence and multiplicity of solutions for the following impulsive fractional boundary value problem

$$\begin{aligned} {_{t}}D_{T}^{\alpha }\left( \left| {_{0}}D_{t}^{\alpha }u(t)\right| ^{p-2}{_{0}}D_{t}^{\alpha }u(t)\right) + a(t)|u(t)|^{p-2}u(t)= & {} f(t,u(t)),\;\;t\ne t_j,\;\;\hbox {a.e.}\;\;t\in [0,T],\\ \Delta \left( {_{t}}I_{T}^{1-\alpha }\left( \left| {_{0}}D_{t}^{\alpha }u(t_j)\right| ^{p-2}{_{0}}D_{t}^{\alpha }u(t_j)\right) \right)= & {} I_j(u(t_j))\;\;j=1,2,\ldots ,n,\\ u(0)= & {} u(T) = 0. \end{aligned}$$

where \(\alpha \in (1/p, 1]\), \(1<p<\infty \), \(0 = t_0<t_1< t_2< \cdots< t_n < t_{n+1} = T\), \(f:[0,T]\times \mathbb {R} \rightarrow \mathbb {R}\) and \(I_j : \mathbb {R} \rightarrow \mathbb {R}\), \(j = 1, \ldots , n\), are continuous functions, \(a\in C[0,T]\) and

By using variational methods and critical point theory, we give some criteria to guarantee that the above-mentioned impulsive problems have at least one weak solution and a sequences of weak solutions.

     

Some properties of a hypergeometric function which appear in an approximation problem

In this paper we consider properties and power expressions of the functions $f:(-1,1)\rightarrow \mathbb{R }$ and $f_L:(-1,1)\rightarrow \mathbb{R }$ , defined by $$\begin{aligned} f(x;\gamma )=\frac{1}{\pi }\int \limits _{-1}^1 \frac{(1+xt)^\gamma }{\sqrt{1-t^2}}\,\mathrm{d}t \quad \text{ and}\quad f_L(x;\gamma )=\frac{1}{\pi }\int \limits _{-1}^1 \frac{(1+xt)^\gamma \log (1+x t)}{\sqrt{1-t^2}}\,\mathrm{d}t, \end{aligned}$$ respectively, where $\gamma $ is a real parameter, as well as some properties of a two parametric real-valued function $D(\,\cdot \,;\alpha ,\beta ) :(-1,1) \rightarrow \mathbb{R }$ , defined by $$\begin{aligned} D(x;\alpha ,\beta )= f(x;\beta )f(x;-\alpha -1)- f(x;-\alpha )f(x;\beta -1),\quad \alpha ,\beta \in \mathbb{R }. \end{aligned}$$ The inequality of Turán type $$\begin{aligned} D(x;\alpha ,\beta )>0,\quad -1<x<1, \end{aligned}$$ for $\alpha +\beta >0$ is proved, as well as an opposite inequality if $\alpha +\beta <0$ . Finally, for the partial derivatives of $D(x;\alpha ,\beta )$ with respect to $\alpha $ or $\beta $ , respectively $A(x;\alpha ,\beta )$ and $B(x;\alpha ,\beta )$ , for which $A(x;\alpha ,\beta )=B(x;-\beta ,-\alpha )$ , some results are obtained. We mention also that some results of this paper have been successfully applied in various problems in the theory of polynomial approximation and some “truncated” quadrature formulas of Gaussian type with an exponential weight on the real semiaxis, especially in a computation of Mhaskar–Rahmanov–Saff numbers.

hold for the maximal operator M _Ω and \(f\in L^{1}(\mathbb {R}^{n})\), here \(\tilde {\omega }_{1}\) denotes the L ¹ integral modulus of continuity of Ω defined by translation in \(\mathbb {R}^{n}\).     

An Erdös-Ko-Rado theorem for restricted signed sets

A restricted signed r-set is a pair （A, f）, where A lohtain in [n] = {1, 2,…, n} is an r-set and f is a map from A to [n] with f（i） ≠ i for all i ∈ A. For two restricted signed sets （A, f） and （B, g）, we define an order as （A, f） ≤ （B, g） if A C B and g｜A ： f A family .A of restricted signed sets on [n] is an intersecting antiehain if for any （A, f）, （B, g） ∈ A, they are incomparable and there exists x ∈ A ∩ B such that f（x） = g（x）. In this paper, we first give a LYM-type inequality for any intersecting antichain A of restricted signed sets, from which we then obtain ｜A｜≤ （r-1^n-1）（n-1）^r-1 if A. consists of restricted signed r-sets on [n]. Unless r = n = 3, equality holds if and only if A consists of all restricted signed r-sets （A, f） such that x0∈ A and f（x0） =ε0 for some fixed x0 ∈ [n], ε0 ∈ [n] ／ {x0}.
