We show the existence of weak solutions to the partial differential equation which describes the motion by R-curvature in R ^d , by the continuum limit of a class of infinite particle systems. We also show that weak solutions of the partial differential equation are viscosity solutions and give the uniqueness result on both weak and viscosity solutions.

Solitary waves for power-law regularized long-wave equation and <Emphasis Type="Italic">R</Emphasis>(<Emphasis Type="Italic">m</Emphasis>,<Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis>) equation

This paper integrates the regularized long-wave equation with power-law nonlinearity using the solitary-wave ansatz. A few of the conserved quantities are calculated by using the 1-soliton solution. This technique is then extended to obtain the solitary-wave solution of the R(m,n) equation and a conserved quantity is also calculated for this generalized equation.     

Constrained multiobjective games in locally convex<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>-spaces

A new class of constrained multiobjective games with infinite players in noncompact locally convex H-spaces without linear structure are introduced and studied. By applying a Fan-Glicksberg type fixed point theorem for upper semicontinuous set-valued mappings with closed acyclic values and a maximum theorem, several existence theorems of weighted Nath-equilibria and Pareto equilibria for the constrained multiobjective games are proved in noncompact locally convex H-spaces. These theorems improve, unify and generalize the corresponding results of the multiobjective games in recent literatures.

g-η-Monotone mapping and resolvent operator technique for solving generalized implicit variational-like inclusions

A new class of g-η-monotone mappings and a class of generalized implicit variational-like inclusions involving g-η-monotone mappings are introduced. The resolvent operator of g-η-monotone mappings is defined and its Lipschitz continuity is presented. An iterative algorithm for approximating the solutions of generalized implicit variational-like inclusions is suggested and analyzed.

MODAL SYNTHESIS METHOD FOR NORM COMPUTATION OF H∞ DECENTRALIZED CONTROL SYSTEMS （II）

When using H∞ techniques to design decentralized controllers for large systems, the whole system is divided into subsystems, which are analysed using H∞ control theorybefore being recombined. An analogy was established with substructural analysis instructural mechanics, in which H∞ decentralized control theory corresponds to substructuralmodal synthesis theory so that the optimal H∞ norm of the whole system corresponds to thefundamental vibration frequency of the whole structure. Hence, modal synthesismethodology and the extended Wittrick-Williams algorithm were transplanted from structuralmechanics to compute the optimal H∞ norm of the control system. The orthogonality and theexpansion theorem of eigenfunctions of the subsystems H~ control are presented in part (I)of the paper. The modal synthesis method for computation of the optimal H∞ norm ofdecentralized control systems and numerical examples are presented in part (Ⅱ).

Differential Independence of <Emphasis Type="Italic">Γ</Emphasis> and <Emphasis Type="Italic">ζ</Emphasis>

In a celebrated theorem H?lder proved that the Euler Γ-function is differential transcendental, i.e. Γ(z) is not a solution of any (non-trivial) algebraic ordinary differential equation with coefficients that are complex numbers; and we extend his methods to the Riemann ζ-function. Moreover, we conjecture that Γ and ζ are differential independent, i.e. Γ(z) is not a solution of any such algebraic differential equation—even allowing coefficients that are differential polynomials in ζ(z). However, we are able to demonstrate only the partial result that Γ(z) and ζ(sin 2πz) are differential independent.     

Optimal harvesting for an age-dependent <Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis>-dimensional food chain model

This paper is concerned with optimal harvesting policy for an age-dependent n-dimensional food chain model. The existence and uniqueness of non-negative solution of the system are proved using the fixed point theorem. By Mazur＇s theorem, the existence of optimal control strategy is demonstrated and optimality conditions derived by means of normal cone.     

<Emphasis Type="Italic">J</Emphasis><Subscript>2</Subscript> invariant relative orbits via differential correction algorithm

This paper describes a practical method for finding the invariant orbits in J ₂ relative dynamics. Working with the Hamiltonian model of the relative motion including the J ₂ perturbation, the effective differential correction algorithm for finding periodic orbits in three-body problem is extended to formation flying of Earth’s orbiters. Rather than using orbital elements, the analysis is done directly in physical space, which makes a direct connection with physical requirements. The asymptotic behavior of the invariant orbit is indicated by its stable and unstable manifolds. The period of the relative orbits is proved numerically to be slightly different from the ascending node period of the leader satellite, and a preliminary explanation for this phenomenon is presented. Then the compatibility between J ₂ invariant orbit and desired relative geometry is considered, and the design procedure for the initial values of the compatible configuration is proposed. The influences of measure errors on the invariant orbit are also investigated by the Monte–Carlo simulation.

A new method for calculating hysteretic <Emphasis Type="Italic">K</Emphasis>(<Emphasis Type="Italic">S</Emphasis>) relationship

A new method for calculating the hysteretic relationship between hydraulic conductivity (K) and suction (S) is proposed. This method uses the experimental (K–S) data of the main wetting and drying branches and predicts satisfactorily the scanning drying and wetting curves. The proposed method is applicable to those porous media where the hysteretic Θ–S relationship complies with the independent domain concept.     

Inequalities relating to Lp-version of Petty＇s conjectured projection inequality

Petty＇s conjectured projection inequality is a famous open problem in the theory of convex bodies. In this paper, it is shown that an inequality relating to Lp-version of the Petty＇s conjectured projection inequality is developed by using the notions of the Lp-mixed volume and the Lp-dual mixed volume, the relation of the Lp-projection body and the geometric body Г-pK, the Bourgain-Milman inequality and the Lp-Bnsemann-Petty inequality. In addition, for each origin-symmetric convex body, by applying the Jensen inequality and the monotonicity of the geometric body Г-pK, the reverses of Lp-version of the Petty＇s conjectured projection inequality and the Lp-Petty projection inequality are given, respectively.     

Weakly R-KKM mappings——intersection theorems and minimax inequalities in topological spaces

In this paper, we introduce the concepts of weakly R-KKM mappings, R-convex and ,R-β-quasiconvex in general topological spaces without any convex structure. Relating to these, we obtain an extension to general topological spaces of Fan's matching theorem, namely that Lemma 1.2 in this paper. On this basis, two intersection theorems are proved in topological spaces. By using intersection theorems, some minimax inequalities of Ky Fan type are also proved in topological spaces. Our results generalize and improve the corresponding results in the literature.

On the <Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis><Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">s</Emphasis></Superscript> Theory of Hydrostatic Euler Equations

In this paper we study the two-dimensional hydrostatic Euler equations in a periodic channel. We prove the local existence and uniqueness of H ^s solutions under the local Rayleigh condition. This extends Brenier’s (Nonlinearity 12(3):495–512, 1999) existence result by removing an artificial condition and proving uniqueness. In addition, we prove weak–strong uniqueness, mathematical justification of the formal derivation and stability of the hydrostatic Euler equations. These results are based on weighted H ^s a priori estimates, which come from a new type of nonlinear cancellation between velocity and vorticity.     

A class of nonlinear boundary value problems for the second-order<Emphasis Type="Italic">E</Emphasis><Subscript>2</Subscript> class elliptic systems in general form

A class of nonlinear boundary value problems (BVP) for the second-order E₂ class elliptic systems in general form is discussed. By introducing a kind of transformation, this kind of BVP is reduced to a class of generalized nonlinear Riemann-Hilbert BVP. And then some singular integral operators are introduced to establish the equivalent nonlinear singular integral equations. The solvability is proved under some suitable hypotheses by means of the properties of singular integral operators and the function theoretic methods.
