Four types of bounded wave solutions of CH-γ equation

Recently, many authors have studied the following CH-γ equationut c0ux 3uux - α2(uxxt uuxxx 2uxuxx) γuxxx =0,where α2, c0 and γ are paramters. Its bounded wave solutions have been investigated mainly for the case α2 ＞ 0. For the case α2 ＜ 0, the existence of three bounded waves (regular solitary waves,compactons, periodic peakons) was pointed out by Dullin et al. But the proof has not been given.In this paper, not only the existence of four types of bounded waves periodic waves, compacton-like waves, kink-like waves, regular solitary waves, is shown, but also their explicit expressions or implicit expressions are given for the case α2 ＜ 0. Some planar graphs of the bounded wave solutions and their numerical simulations are given to show the correctness of our results.     

On cauchy problem of the Benney-Lin equation with low regularity initial data

In this work we prove that the initial value problem of the Benney-Lin equation ut ＋ uxxx ＋ β（uxx ＋ u xxxx） ＋ ηuxxxxx ＋ uux = 0 （x ∈ R, t ≥0 0）, where β 〉 0 and η∈R, is locally well-posed in Sobolev spaces HS（R） for s ≥ -7/5. The method we use to prove this result is the bilinear estimate method initiated by Bourgain.     

A limit theorem for random coverings of a circle

LetN _{α, m} equal the number of randomly placed arcs of length α (0<α<1) required to cover a circleC of unit circumferencem times. We prove that lim_α→0 P(N_α,m≦(1/α) (log (1/α)+mlog log(1/α)+x)=exp ((−1/(m−1)!) exp (−x)). Using this result for m=1, we obtain another derivation of Steutel's resultE(N_α,1)=(1/α) (log(1/α)+log log(1/α)+γ+o(1)) as α→0, γ denoting Euler's constant.     

Local solution for the Kadomtsev-Petviashvili equation with periodic conditions

In this article we prove a local existence and uniqueness theorem for the Kadomtsev-Petviashvili Equation (u _t +u _xxx +uu _x ) _x −u _yy =0) in the Sobolev spaces of orders≥3, with initial values in the same spaces, and periodic boundary conditions. This theorem improves previous results based upon the application of singular perturbation techniques.     

The Camassa–Holm Equation on the Half-Line: a Riemann–Hilbert Approach

We consider the initial-boundary value (IBV) problem for the Camassa–Holm (CH) equation u _t −u _txx +2u _x +3uu _x =2u _x u _xx +uu _xxx on the half-line x≥0. In this article, we aim to provide a characterization of the solution of the IBV problem in terms of the solution of a matrix Riemann–Hilbert (RH) factorization problem in the complex plane of the spectral parameter. The data of this RH problem are determined in terms of spectral functions associated to initial and boundary values of the solution. The construction requires more boundary data than those needed for a well-posed IBV problem. Their dependence is expressed in terms of an algebraic relation to be satisfied by the spectral functions. This RH formulation gives us the long-time asymptotics of a solution of the CH-equation. Dedicated to Gennadi Henkin in great admiration.     

New solutions for the modified generalized Degasperis-Procesi equation

In this paper, using three distinct computational methods we obtain some new exact solutions for the generalized modified Degasperis-Procesi equation (mDP equation) u_t-u_xxt+(b+1)u²u_x=bu_xu_xx+uu_xxx. We show the graph of some of the new solutions obtained here with the aim to illustrate their physical relevance. Mathematica is used. Finally some conclusions are given.     

Equations fonctionnelles et estimations de normes de matrices

We solve independently the equations 1/θ(x)θ(y)=ψ(x)−ψ(y)+φ(x−y)/θ(x−y) and 1/θ(x)θ(y)=σ(x)−σ(y)/θ(x−y)+τ(x)τ(y), τ(0)=0. In both cases we find θ²=aθ⁴+bθ²+c. We deduce estimates for the spectral radius of a matrix of type(1/θ(x _r −x _s )) (the accent meaning that the coefficients of the main diagonal are zero) and we study the case where thex _r are equidistant.

Peakon, loop and solitary travelling wave solutions for the general modified CH-DP equation

Travelling wave solutions for the general modified CH-DP equation u_t − u_xxt + αu²u_x − βu_xu_xx = uu_xxx are developed. By using the dynamical system method, a peakon and a dark soliton are found to coexist for the same wave speed. Exact explicit blow-up solutions are given. By using numerical simulation, a loop solution for a special case is discussed.     

Complex ordering and stochastic oscillations in a class of reaction-diffusion systems with small diffusion

Summary We consider four models of partial differential equations obtained by applying a generalization of the method of normal forms to two-component reaction-diffusion systems with small diffusionu _t=εDu _xx+(A+εA ₁)u+F(u),u ∈ ℝ². These equations (quasinormal forms) describe the behaviour of solutions of the original equation forε → 0. One of the quasinormal forms is the well-known complex Ginzburg-Landau equation. The properties of attractors of the other three equations are considered. Two of these equations have an interesting feature that may be called asensitivity to small parameters: they contain a new parameterϑ(ε)=−(aε ^−1/2 mod 1) that influences the behaviour of solutions, but changes infinitely many times whenε → 0. This does not create problems in numerical analysis of quasinormal forms, but makes numerical study of the original problem involvingε almost impossible.     

Asymptotics of Recurrence Relation Coefficients,Hankel Determinant Ratios,and Root Products Associated with Laurent Polynomials Orthogonal with Respect to Varying Exponential Weights

Let Λ^ℝ denote the linear space over ℝ spanned by z ^k , k∈ℤ. Define the real inner product 〈⋅,⋅〉 _L :Λ^ℝ×Λ^ℝ→ℝ, , N∈ℕ, where V satisfies: (i) V is real analytic on ℝ∖{0}; (ii) lim  _{| x |→∞}(V(x)/ln (x ²+1))=+∞; and (iii) lim  _{| x |→0}(V(x)/ln (x ⁻²+1))=+∞. Orthogonalisation of the (ordered) base with respect to 〈⋅,⋅〉 _L yields the even degree and odd degree orthonormal Laurent polynomials (OLPs) : φ _2n (z)=∑ _k=−n ⁿ ξ _k ⁽²ⁿ⁾ z ^k , ξ _n ⁽²ⁿ⁾>0, and φ _2n+1(z)=∑ _k=−n−1 ⁿ ξ _k ⁽²ⁿ⁺¹⁾ z ^k , ξ _−n−1⁽²ⁿ⁺¹⁾>0. Associated with the even degree and odd degree OLPs are the following two pairs of recurrence relations: z φ _2n (z)=c _2n ^♯ φ _2n−2(z)+b _2n ^♯ φ _2n−1(z)+a _2n ^♯ φ _2n (z)+b _2n+1 ^♯ φ _2n+1(z)+c _2n+2 ^♯ φ _2n+2(z) and z φ _2n+1(z)=b _2n+1 ^♯ φ _2n (z)+a _2n+1 ^♯ φ _2n+1(z)+b _2n+2 ^♯ φ _2n+2(z), where c ₀ ^♯ =b ₀ ^♯ =0, and c _2k ^♯ >0, k∈ℕ, and z ⁻¹ φ _2n+1(z)=γ _2n+1 ^♯ φ _2n−1(z)+β _2n+1 ^♯ φ _2n (z)+α _2n+1 ^♯ φ _2n+1(z)+β _2n+2 ^♯ φ _2n+2(z)+γ _2n+3 ^♯ φ _2n+3(z) and z ⁻¹ φ _2n (z)=β _2n ^♯ φ _2n−1(z)+α _2n ^♯ φ _2n (z)+β _2n+1 ^♯ φ _2n+1(z), where β ₀ ^♯ =γ ₁ ^♯ =0, β ₁ ^♯ >0, and γ _2l+1 ^♯ >0, l∈ℕ. Asymptotics in the double-scaling limit N,n→∞ such that N/n=1+o(1) of the coefficients of these two pairs of recurrence relations, Hankel determinant ratios associated with the real-valued, bi-infinite strong moment sequence , and the products of the (real) roots of the OLPs are obtained by formulating the even degree and odd degree OLP problems as matrix Riemann-Hilbert problems on ℝ, and then extracting the large-n behaviours by applying the non-linear steepest-descent method introduced in (Ann. Math. 137(2):295–368, [1993]) and further developed in (Commun. Pure Appl. Math. 48(3):277–337, [1995]) and (Int. Math. Res. Not. 6:285–299, [1997]).

Problem with periodicity conditions for a degenerating equation of mixed type

For the equation K(t)u _xx + u _tt − b ² K(t)u = 0 in the rectangular domain D = “(x, t)‖ 0 < x < 1, −α < t < β”, where K(t) = (sgnt)|t| ^m , m > 0, and b > 0, α > 0, and β > 0 are given real numbers, we use the spectral method to obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for the unique solvability of the boundary value problem u(0, t) = u(1, t), u _x (0, t) = u _x (1, t), −α ≤ t ≤ β, u(x, β) = φ(x), u(x,−α) = ψ(x), 0 ≤ x ≤ 1.

Global Existence and Nonexistence for a Strongly Coupled Parabolic System with Nonlinear Boundary Conditions

This paper deals with the strongly coupled parabolic system ut = v^m△u, vt = u^n△v, （x, t） ∈Ω × （0,T） subject to nonlinear boundary conditions 偏du/偏dη = u^αv^p, 偏du/偏dη= u^qv^β, （x, t） ∈ 偏dΩ × （0, T）, where Ω 包含 RN is a bounded domain, m, n are positive constants and α,β, p, q are nonnegative constants. Global existence and nonexistence of the positive solution of the above problem are studied and a new criterion is established. It is proved that the positive solution of the above problem exists globally if and only if α 〈 1,β 〈 1 and （m ＋p）（n ＋ q） ≤ （1 - α）（1 -β）.

Asymptotic Behaviors of the Solutions to Scalar Viscous Conservation Laws on Bounded Interval

Abstract This paper concerns the asymptotic behaviors of the solutions to the initial-boundary value prob-lem for scalar viscous conservations laws u_t+f(u)_x=u_(xx) on[0,1],with the boundary condition u(0,t) =u_,u(1,t)=u_+ and the initial data u(x,0)=u_0(x,0)=u_0(x),where u_≠u_+ and f is a given function satisfyingf'(u)>0 for u under consideration.By means of energy estimates method and under some more regular condi-tions on the initial data,both the global existence and the asymptotic behavior are obtained.When u_u_+, which corresponds to shock waves in inviscid conservation laws, it is established for weak shockwaves,which means that │u_-u_+│is small.Moreover,exponential decay rates are both given.

Almost-sure central limit theorem for a Markov model of random walk in dynamical random environment

Summary We consider a model of random walk on ℤ^ν, ν≥2, in a dynamical random environment described by a field ξ={ξ _t (x): (t,x)∈ℤ^ν+1}. The random walk transition probabilities are taken as P(X _{t +1}= y|X _t = x,ξ _t =η) =P ₀( y−x)+ c(y−x;η(x)). We assume that the variables {ξ _t (x):(t,x) ∈ℤ^ν+1} are i.i.d., that both P ₀(u) and c(u;s) are finite range in u, and that the random term c(u;·) is small and with zero average. We prove that the C.L.T. holds almost-surely, with the same parameters as for P ₀, for all ν≥2. For ν≥3 there is a finite random (i.e., dependent on ξ) correction to the average of X _t , and there is a corresponding random correction of order to the C.L.T.. For ν≥5 there is a finite random correction to the covariance matrix of X _t and a corresponding correction of order to the C.L.T.. Proofs are based on some new L ^p estimates for a class of functionals of the field. Received: 4 January 1996/In revised form: 26 May 1997
