Boundary value problems for a quasilinear parabolic equation with an unknown coefficient

The work is connected with the mathematical modeling of physical–chemical processes in which inner characteristics of materials are subjected to changes. The considered nonlinear parabolic models consist of a boundary value problem for a quasilinear parabolic equation with an unknown coefficient multiplying the derivative with respect to time and, moreover, involve an additional relationship for a time dependence of this coefficient. For such a system, conditions of unique solvability in a class of smooth functions are studied on the basis of the Rothe method. The proposed approach involves the proof of a priori estimates in the difference-continuous Hölder spaces for the corresponding differential-difference nonlinear system that approximates the original system by the Rothe method. These estimates allow one to establish the existence of the smooth solutions and to obtain the error estimates of the approximate solutions.As examples of applications of the considered nonlinear boundary value problems, the models of destruction of heat-protective composite under the influence of high temperature heating are discussed.     

A statistical approach to graduation by mathematical formula

Graduation by mathematical formula is recast as problem of statistical estimation. The method of maximum likelihood is used to determine the estimates of the parameters. Theory is developed to allow for estimation without resorting to the usual ‘exposure’ formulas. Both single and multiple decrement models are considered. Theoretical results are obtained for some specific mortality models. Numerical procedures to obtain the estimates are considered.     

On Solvability of Some Initial-Boundary Problems for Mathematical Models of the Motion of Nonlinearly Viscous and Viscoelastic Fluids

In the paper, the settings of initial-boundary and initial value problems arising in a number of models of movement of nonlinearly viscous or viscoelastic incompressible fluid are considered, and existence theorems for these problems are presented. In particular, the settings of initial-boundary value problems appearing in the regularized model of the movement of viscoelastic fluid with Jeffris constitutive relation are described. The theorems for the existence of weak and strong solutions for these problems in bounded domains are given. The initial value problem for a nonlinearly viscous fluid on the whole space is considered. The estimates on the right-hand side and initial conditions under which there exist local and global solutions of this problem are presented. The modification of Litvinov's model for laminar and turbulent flows with a memory is described. The existence theorem for weak solutions of initial-boundary value problem appearing in this model is given.     

Least squares estimation of linear regression models for convex compact random sets

Simple and multiple linear regression models are considered between variables whose “values” are convex compact random sets in ${\mathbb{R}^p}$ , (that is, hypercubes, spheres, and so on). We analyze such models within a set-arithmetic approach. Contrary to what happens for random variables, the least squares optimal solutions for the basic affine transformation model do not produce suitable estimates for the linear regression model. First, we derive least squares estimators for the simple linear regression model and examine them from a theoretical perspective. Moreover, the multiple linear regression model is dealt with and a stepwise algorithm is developed in order to find the estimates in this case. The particular problem of the linear regression with interval-valued data is also considered and illustrated by means of a real-life example.     

The Asymptotic Behavior of Global Smooth Solutions to the Macroscopic Models for Semiconductors

The authors study the asymptotic behavior of the smooth solutions to the Cauchy problems for two macroscopic models (hydrodynamic and drift-diffusion models) for semiconductors and the related relaxation limit problem. First, it is proved that the solutions to these two systems converge to the unique stationary solution time asymptotically without the smallness assumption on doping profile. Then, very sharp estimates on the smooth solutions, independent of the relaxation time, are obtained and used to establish the zero relaxation limit.     

On the solution of a Schrödinger type equation by a projection-difference method with an implicit Euler scheme with respect to time

A linear nonstationary Schrödinger type problem in a separable Hilbert space is approximately solved by a projection-difference method. The problem is discretized in space by the Galerkin method using finite-dimensional subspaces of finite-element type, and an implicit Euler scheme is used with respect to time. We establish error estimates uniform with respect to the time grid for the approximate solutions; as to the spatial variables, the estimates are given in the norm of the original space as well as in the energy norm. The estimates considered here not only permit one to prove the convergence of approximate solutions to the exact solution but also give a numerical characterization of the convergence rate.

Continuous invertibility of a boundary control operator for the wave equation on subcritical intervals in classes of weak generalized solutions

For the wave equation, problems with two-sided boundary controls of three basic types are considered. Constructive estimates for the bounded invertibility of the control operator with known estimated constants are obtained in classes of weak generalized solutions on intervals of subcritical length. With the use of these estimates, stable numerical solutions of the considered problems on time intervals of strictly subcritical length can be found by applying a variational method. The main difference of the present estimated constants from those considered previously in the case of strong generalized solutions is that they degenerate as the time interval length approaches its critical value.     

Generalized implicit Euler method for hyperbolic functional differential equations

Nonlinear hyperbolic functional differential equations with initial boundary conditions are considered. Theorems on the convergence of difference schemes and error estimates of approximate solutions are presented. The proof of the stability of the difference functional problem is based on a comparison technique. Nonlinear estimates of the Perron type with respect to the functional variable for given functions are used. Numerical examples are given (© 2010 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)     

About the regularity of solutions for the nonstationary Navier-Stokes systems

The problem of existence of regular (Hölder continuous) solutions for the multidimensional nonstationary Navier- Stokes system is considered. The results are based on explicit pointwise bounds for the velocities. The coercivity estimates in special weighted spaces for the Stokes system are used and the smallness of the Reynolds numbers is assumed.     

Exponential stability and estimates for monotone and differential-difference systems

We present necessary and sufficient conditions for the exponential stability in the nonnegative cone and refine exponential estimates for solutions of systems of autonomous difference equations with monotone nondecreasing right-hand sides, including discontinuous ones, as well as for solutions of some class of systems of differential-difference equations with monotonicity. Unlike well-known criteria, the new ones are free of some additional assumptions on the right-hand sides of the considered models other than the original monotonicity conditions. We show that, in the nonsmooth and discontinuous cases, the traditional exponential stability conditions based on ??linearization?? can lead to negative or very coarse results.     

Sharp upper global a posteriori error estimates for nonlinear elliptic variational problems

The paper is devoted to the problem of verification of accuracy of approximate solutions obtained in computer simulations. This problem is strongly related to a posteriori error estimates, giving computable bounds for computational errors and detecting zones in the solution domain where such errors are too large and certain mesh refinements should be performed. A mathematical model embracing nonlinear elliptic variational problems is considered in this work. Based on functional type estimates developed on an abstract level, we present a general technology for constructing computable sharp upper bounds for the global error for various particular classes of elliptic problems. Here the global error is understood as a suitable energy type difference between the true and computed solutions. The estimates obtained are completely independent of the numerical technique used to obtain approximate solutions, and are sharp in the sense that they can be, in principle, made as close to the true error as resources of the used computer allow. The latter can be achieved by suitably tuning the auxiliary parameter functions, involved in the proposed upper error bounds, in the course of the calculations.     

Convergence of finite volume schemes for semilinear convection diffusion equations

The topic of this work is the discretization of semilinear elliptic problems in two space dimensions by the cell centered finite volume method. Dirichlet boundary conditions are considered here. A discrete Poincaré inequality is used, and estimates on the approximate solutions are proven. The convergence of the scheme without any assumption on the regularity of the exact solution is proven using some compactness results which are shown to hold for the approximate solutions.

A Posteriori Estimates in Local Norms

We derive a posteriori estimates for the difference between exact solutions and approximate solutions to boundary-value problems in terms of local norms. The diffusion problem, linear elasticity and generalizations to other boundary-value elliptic problems are considered. Computable estimates for the deviation from the exact solution are also obtained in terms of linear functionals. Unlike published works of other authors, the construction of such estimates is not connected with any analysis of the adjoint boundary-value problem. On the basis of multiplicative inequalities, local estimates in certain norms subject to the energy norm are derived. Bibliography: 10 titles.

Estimating the Accuracy of a Method of Auxiliary Boundary Conditions in Solving an Inverse Boundary Value Problem for a Nonlinear Equation

An inverse boundary value problem for a nonlinear parabolic equation is considered. Two-sided estimates for the norms of values of a nonlinear operator in terms of those of a corresponding linear operator are obtained.On this basis, two-sided estimates for the modulus of continuity of a nonlinear inverse problem in terms of that of a corresponding linear problem are obtained. A method of auxiliary boundary conditions is used to construct stable approximate solutions to the nonlinear inverse problem. An accurate (to an order) error estimate for the method of auxiliary boundary conditions is obtained on a uniform regularization class.
