The authors consider m -th order nonlinear difference equations of the form D m p x n + i h j ( n , x s j ( n ) )=0, j =1,2,( E j ) where m S 1, n ] N 0 ={0,1,2,…}, D 0 p x n = x n , D i p x n = p n i j ( D i m 1 p x n ), i =1,2,…, m , j x n = x n +1 m x n , { p n 1 },…,{ p n m } are real sequences, p n i >0, and p n m L 1. In Eq. ( E 1 ) , p = a and p n i = a n i , and in Eq. ( E 2 ) , p = A and p n i = A n i , i =1,2,…, m . Here, { s j ( n )} are sequences of nonnegative integers with s j ( n ) M X as n M X , and h j : N 0 2 R M R is continuous with uh j ( n , u )>0 for u p 0. They prove a comparison result on the oscillation of solutions and the asymptotic behavior of nonoscillatory solutions of Eq. ( E j ) for j =1,2. Examples illustrating the results are also included.

On the Periodic Character of Some Difference Equations

We consider positive solutions of the following difference equation x n =max A x n m k , B x n m m , n =0,1,…, where A , B are any positive real numbers and k , m are any positive integers. We prove that every positive solution is eventually periodic and determine the period in terms of the parameters A , B , k , and m .     

On the Global Character of the Difference Equation X n + 1 =

We investigate the global stability, the periodic character, and the boundedness nature of solutions of the difference equation x n +1 = f + n x n m (2 k +1) + i x n m 2 l A + x n m 2 l , n =0,1,… where k and l are non-negative integers, the parameters f , n , i , A are non-negative real numbers with f + n + i >0, and the initial conditions are non-negative real numbers. We show that the solutions exhibit a trichotomy character depending upon the parameters n , i and A .

GENERALISED MAXIMAL INDEPENDENCE AND CLIQUE NUMBERS OF GRAPHS

Abstract

A set B of vertices of a graph G = (V,E) is a k-maximal independent set (kMIS) if B is independent but for all ?-subsets X of B, where ? ? k—1, and all (? + 1)-subsets Y of V—B, the set (B—X) u Y is dependent. A set S of vertices of C is a k-maximal clique (kMc) of G iff S is a kMIS of [Gbar]. Let β_k, (G) (w_k(G) respectively) denote the smallest cardinality of a kMIS (kMC) of G—obviously β_k(G) = w_k([Gbar]). For the sequence m₁ ? m₂ ?…? m_n = r of positive integers, necessary and sufficient conditions are found for a graph G to exist such that w_k(G) = m_k for k = 1,2,…,n and w(G) = r (equivalently, β_k(G) = m_k for k = 1,2,…,n and β(G) = r). Define s_k(?,m) to be the largest integer such that for every graph G with at most s_k(?,m) vertices, β_k(G) ? ? or w_k(G) ? m. Exact values for s_k(?,m) if k ≥ 2 and upper and lower bounds for s₁(?,m) are de termined.     

Existence and Comparison Results for First Order Periodic Implicit Difference Equations with Maxima

Asymptotically Constant Solutions of Functional Difference Systems

We consider the functional difference system ( A ) j x i ( n )= f i ( n ; X ), 1 h i h k , where X =( x 1 ,…, x k ) and f 1 (·; X ),…, f k (·; X ) are real-valued functionals of X , which may depend quite arbitrarily on values of X ( l ) for multiple values of l ] Z . We give sufficient conditions for ( A ) to have solutions that approach specified constant vectors as n M X . Some of the results guarantee only that the solutions are defined for n sufficiently large, while others are global. The proof of the main theorem is based on the Schauder-Tychonoff theorem. Applications to specific quasi-linear systems are included.

On the Periodic Structure of Delayed Difference Equations of the Form x n = f ( x n − k ) on I and S 1

Sur la quasi-convexité des arcs trinomiaux

From the equationp ^n?k sinnθ?ρ ⁿ sin(n?k)θ=sinkθ we will show that the function σ=σ(θ) is increasing for the arcsA _m , obtained when one putsn=m, k=m?1 andm=3,4,5,… Next, we will study the arcsB _m obtained whenn=m, k=m?2 andm an odd integer larger than 3. In this case, σ(θ) will be shown to be a decreasing function. Finally, the Farey arcsF(p,q;r,s) are obtained whenn=s, k=q, s andq relatively prime. It will be proved that the function σ(θ) is strictly quasi-convex.     

Well-posedness of a semilinear heat equation with weak initial data

This article mainly consists of two parts. In the first part the initial value problem (IVP) of the semilinear heat equation $$\begin{gathered} \partial _t u - \Delta u = \left| u \right|^{k - 1} u, on \mathbb{R}^n x(0,\infty ), k \geqslant 2 \hfill \\ u(x,0) = u_0 (x), x \in \mathbb{R}^n \hfill \\ \end{gathered} $$ with initial data in $\dot L_{r,p} $ is studied. We prove the well-posedness when $$1< p< \infty , \frac{2}{{k(k - 1)}}< \frac{n}{p} \leqslant \frac{2}{{k - 1}}, and r =< \frac{n}{p} - \frac{2}{{k - 1}}( \leqslant 0)$$ and construct non-unique solutions for $$1< p< \frac{{n(k - 1)}}{2}< k + 1, and r< \frac{n}{p} - \frac{2}{{k - 1}}.$$ In the second part the well-posedness of the avove IVP for k=2 with μ₀?H ^s (? ⁿ ) is proved if $$ - 1< s, for n = 1, \frac{n}{2} - 2< s, for n \geqslant 2.$$ and this result is then extended for more general nonlinear terms and initial data. By taking special values of r, p, s, and u₀, these well-posedness results reduce to some of those previously obtained by other authors [4, 14].
