A Finite Difference Scheme for Blow-Up Solutions of Nonlinear Wave Equations

<正>We consider a finite difference scheme for a nonlinear wave equation,whose solutions may lose their smoothness in finite time,i.e.,blow up in finite time.In order to numerically reproduce blow-up solutions,we propose a rule for a time-stepping, which is a variant of what was successfully used in the case of nonlinear parabolic equations.A numerical blow-up time is defined and is proved to converge,under a certain hypothesis,to the real blow-up time as the grid size tends to zero.     

Implicit Shape Reconstruction of Unorganized Points Using PDE-Based Deformable 3D Manifolds

<正>In this work we consider the problem of shape reconstruction from an unorganized data set which has many important applications in medical imaging,scientific computing,reverse engineering and geometric modelling.The reconstructed surface is obtained by continuously deforming an initial surface following the Partial Differential Equation(PDE)-based diffusion model derived by a minimal volume-like variational formulation.The evolution is driven both by the distance from the data set and by the curvature analytically computed by it.The distance function is computed by implicit local interpolants defined in terms of radial basis functions.Space discretization of the PDE model is obtained by finite co-volume schemes and semi-implicit approach is used in time/scale.The use of a level set method for the numerical computation of the surface reconstruction allows us to handle complex geometry and even changing topology, without the need of user-interaction.Numerical examples demonstrate the ability of the proposed method to produce high quality reconstructions.Moreover,we show the effectiveness of the new approach to solve hole filling problems and Boolean operations between different data sets.

Multivariate quasi-tight framelets with high balancing orders derived from any compactly supported refinable vector functions

Generalizing wavelets by adding desired redundancy and flexibility,framelets(i.e.,wavelet frames)are of interest and importance in many applications such as image processing and numerical algorithms.Several key properties of framelets are high vanishing moments for sparse multiscale representation,fast framelet transforms for numerical efficiency,and redundancy for robustness.However,it is a challenging problem to study and construct multivariate nonseparable framelets,mainly due to their intrinsic connections to factorization and syzygy modules of multivariate polynomial matrices.Moreover,all the known multivariate tight framelets derived from spline refinable scalar functions have only one vanishing moment,and framelets derived from refinable vector functions are barely studied yet in the literature.In this paper,we circumvent the above difficulties through the approach of quasi-tight framelets,which behave almost identically to tight framelets.Employing the popular oblique extension principle(OEP),from an arbitrary compactly supported M-refinable vector functionφwith multiplicity greater than one,we prove that we can always derive fromφa compactly supported multivariate quasi-tight framelet such that:(i)all the framelet generators have the highest possible order of vanishing moments;(ii)its associated fast framelet transform has the highest balancing order and is compact.For a refinable scalar functionφ(i.e.,its multiplicity is one),the above item(ii)often cannot be achieved intrinsically but we show that we can always construct a compactly supported OEP-based multivariate quasi-tight framelet derived fromφsatisfying item(i).We point out that constructing OEP-based quasi-tight framelets is closely related to the generalized spectral factorization of Hermitian trigonometric polynomial matrices.Our proof is critically built on a newly developed result on the normal form of a matrix-valued filter,which is of interest and importance in itself for greatly facilitating the study of refinable vector functions and multiwavelets/multiframelets.This paper provides a comprehensive investigation on OEP-based multivariate quasi-tight multiframelets and their associated framelet transforms with high balancing orders.This deepens our theoretical understanding of multivariate quasi-tight multiframelets and their associated fast multiframelet transforms.

Poisson Stable Solutions for Stochastic Differential Equations with Lévy Noise

In this paper,we use a unified framework to study Poisson stable(including stationary,periodic,quasi-periodic,almost periodic,almost automorphic,Birkhoff recurrent,almost recurrent in the sense of Bebutov,Levitan almost periodic,pseudo-periodic,pseudo-recurrent and Poisson stable)solutions for semilinear stochastic differential equations driven by infinite dimensional L′evy noise with large jumps.Under suitable conditions on drift,diffusion and jump coefficients,we prove that there exist solutions which inherit the Poisson stability of coefficients.Further we show that these solutions are globally asymptotically stable in square-mean sense.Finally,we illustrate our theoretical results by several examples.

Nonconforming Finite Element Methods for the Constrained Optimal Control Problems Governed by Nonsmooth Elliptic Equations

In this paper,nonconforming finite element methods(FEMs)are proposed for the constrained optimal control problems(OCPs)governed by the nonsmooth elliptic equations,in which the popular EQr1 ot element is employed to approximate the state and adjoint state,and the piecewise constant element is used to approximate the control.Firstly,the convergence and superconvergence properties for the nonsmooth elliptic equation are obtained by introducing an auxiliary problem.Secondly,the goal-oriented error estimates are obtained for the objective function through establishing the negative norm error estimate.Lastly,the methods are extended to some other well-known nonconforming elements.     

Tame Kernels of Quaternion Number Fields

Let E/F be a Galois extension of number fields with the quaternion Galois group Q ₈. In this paper, we prove some relations connecting orders of the odd part of the kernel of the transfer map of the tame kernel of E with the same orders of some of its subfields. Let E/? be a Galois extension of number fields with the Galois group Q ₈ and p an odd prime such that p ≡ 3 (mod 4). We prove that if there is at most one quadratic subfield such that the p-Sylow subgroup of the tame kernel is nontrivial, then p ^r -rank(K ₂(E/K)) is even, i.e., 2|p ^r -rank(K ₂(𝒪 _E )) ? p ^r -rank(K ₂(𝒪 _K )), where K is the quartic subfield of E.     

On the p 2-Rank of Tame Kernels of Quadratic Fields

For any odd prime p, we prove some results connecting the p²-rank of the tame kernel of a quadratic field F with the p²-rank Cl(𝒪_E1 ), where E₁ is the maximal real subfield of F(ζ_p² ).     

On Tame Kernels and Ideal Class Groups

It is well known that there is a close connection between tame kernels and ideal class groups of number fields. However, the latter is a very difficult subject in number theory. In this paper, we prove some results connecting the p^n-rank of the tame kernel of a cyclic cubic field F with the p^n-rank of the coinvariants of μp^n×CI（δE,T） under the action of the Galois group, where E = F（ζp^n ） and T is the finite set of primes of E consisting of the infinite primes and the finite primes dividing p. In particular, if F is a cyclic cubic field with only one ramified prime and p = 3, n = 2, we apply the results of the tame kernels to prove some results of the ideal class groups of E, the maximal real subfield of E and F（ζ3）.

On the cohomology of Witt vectors of p-adic integers and a conjecture of Hesselholt

Let K be a complete discrete valued field of characteristic zero with residue field kK of characteristic p>0. Let L/K be a finite Galois extension with Galois group G such that the induced extension of residue fields kL/kK is separable. Hesselholt (2004) [2] conjectured that the pro-abelian group {H¹(G,Wn(OL))}_n∈N is zero, where OL is the ring of integers of L and W(OL) is the ring of Witt vectors in OL w.r.t. the prime p. He partially proved this conjecture for a large class of extensions. In this paper, we prove Hesselholt?s conjecture for all Galois extensions.     

Galois structure and de Rham invariants of elliptic curves

Let K be a number field with ring of integers OK. Suppose a finite group G acts numerically tamely on a regular scheme X over OK. One can then define a de Rham invariant class in the class group Cl(OK[G]), which is a refined Euler characteristic of the de Rham complex of X. Our results concern the classification of numerically tame actions and the de Rham invariant classes. We first describe how all Galois étale G-covers of a K-variety may be built up from finite Galois extensions of K and from geometric covers. When X is a curve of positive genus, we show that a given étale action of G on X extends to a numerically tame action on a regular model if and only if this is possible on the minimal model. Finally, we characterize the classes in Cl(OK[G]) which are realizable as the de Rham invariants for minimal models of elliptic curves when G has prime order.     

Genus number and l-rank of genus group of cyclic extensions of degree l

Let l be an odd prime, and k an algebraic number field of a finite degree. Let S be a finite product of distinct prime ideals g of k such that Ng1 (mod l). Let I(s) (resp. P(s)) denote the group of ideals (resp. principal ideals) of k prime to S, and let P_S denote the ray modulo S. In this paper we prove that the order (resp. the l-rank) of I(S)/P(S)^lP_S is expressed by the decomposition groups of prime factors of S in a Galois extension K_o (resp. K_r) over k. As an application of this, some results about genus theory are obtained.     

Torsion points of elliptic curves over large algebraic extensions of finitely generated fields

The following Theorem is proved:Let K be a finitely generated field over its prime field. Then, for almost all e-tuples (σ)=(σ ₁, …,σ _e)of elements of the abstract Galois group G(K)of K we have:

1. If e=1,then E _tor(K(σ))is infinite. Morover, there exist infinitely many primes l such that E(K(σ))contains points of order l.
2. If e≧2,then E _tor(K(σ))is finite.
3. If e≧1,then for every prime l, the group E(K(σ))contains only finitely many points of an l-power order.

HereK(σ) is the fixed field in the algebraic closureK ofK, ofσ ₁, …,σ _e, and “almost all” is meant in the sense of the Haar measure ofG(K).
