The Relations between Discrete Frames and Continuous Frames with Respect to （N, μ）

The discrete frame and the continuous frame in a Hilbert space are discussed. By the tool excess of a sequence, a sufficient and necessary condition is presented under which a discrete frame is equivalent to a continuous frame with respect to the whole natural numbers with a positive Borel measure. And some examples are given to illuminate the condition.     

A REACTIVE DYNAMIC CONTINUUM USER EQUILIBRIUM MODEL FOR BI-DIRECTIONAL PEDESTRIAN FLOWS

In this paper, a reactive dynamic user equilibrium model is extended to simulate two groups of pedestrians traveling on crossing paths in a continuous walking facility. Each group makes path choices to minimize the travel cost to its destination in a reactive manner based on instantaneous information. The model consists of a conservation law equation coupled with an Eikonal-type equation for each group. The velocity-density relationship of pedestrian movement is obtained via an experimental method. The model is solved using a finite volume method for the conservation law equation and a fast-marching method for the Eikonal-type equation on unstructured grids. The numerical results verify the rationality of the model and the validity of the numerical method. Based on this continuum model, a number of results, e.g., the formation of strips or moving clusters composed of pedestrians walking to the same destination, are also observed.     

On the Steady Solutions to a Model of Compressible Heat Conducting Fluid in Two Space Dimensions

We consider steady compressible Navier-Stokes-Fourier system in a bounded two-dimensional domain with the pressure law p（e,θ） - qθ＋eln^α（1＋e）. For the heat flux q ~ -（1＋θ^m） △θwe show the existence of a weak solution provided α〉max{1,1/m}, m 〉0. This improves the recent result from [1].     

EXISTENCE OF ENTROPY SOLUTIONS TO TWO-DIMENSIONAL STEADY EXOTHERMICALLY REACTING EULER EQUATIONS

We are concerned with the global existence of entropy solutions of the twodimensional steady Euler equations for an ideal gas, which undergoes a one-step exothermic chemical reaction under the Arrhenius-type kinetics. The reaction rate function φ(T) is assumed to have a positive lower bound. We first consider the Cauchy problem(the initial value problem), that is, seek a supersonic downstream reacting flow when the incoming flow is supersonic, and establish the global existence of entropy solutions when the total variation of the initial data is suffciently small. Then we analyze the problem of steady supersonic, exothermically reacting Euler flow past a Lipschitz wedge, generating an additional detonation wave attached to the wedge vertex, which can be then formulated as an initial-boundary value problem. We establish the global existence of entropy solutions containing the additional detonation wave(weak or strong, determined by the wedge angle at the wedge vertex) when the total variation of both the slope of the wedge boundary and the incoming flow is suitably small. The downstream asymptotic behavior of the global solutions is also obtained.

MULTIPLE SOLUTIONS AND THEIR LIMITING BEHAVIOR OF COUPLED NONLINEAR SCHRDINGER SYSTEMS

We study the multiplicity of positive solutions and their limiting behavior as ε tends to zero for a class of coupled nonlinear Schrdinger system in RN . We relate the number of positive solutions to the topology of the set of minimum points of the least energy function for ε suffciently small. Also, we verify that these solutions concentrate at a global minimum point of the least energy function.     

TANGENT UNIT-VECTOR FIELDS:NONABELIAN HOMOTOPY INVARIANTS AND THE DIRICHLET ENERGY

Let O be a closed geodesic polygon in S~2 . Maps from O into S~2 are said to satisfy tangent boundary conditions if the edges of O are mapped into the geodesics which contain them. Taking O to be an octant of S 2,we compute the infimum Dirichlet energy E(H) for continuous maps satisfying tangent boundary conditions of arbitrary homotopy type H . The expression for E (H ) involves a topological invariant - the spelling length - associated with the (non-abelian) fundamental group of the n-times punctured two-sphere, π 1 (S 2 ? {s 1 , ··· , s n }, ?). The lower bound for E(H) is obtained from combinatorial group theory arguments, while the upper bound is obtained by constructing explicit representa- tives which, on all but an arbitrarily small subset of O, are alternatively locally conformal or anticonformal. For conformal and anticonformal classes (classes containing wholly con- formal and anticonformal representatives respectively), the expression for E (H ) reduces to a previous result involving the degrees of a set of regular values s 1 , ··· , s n in the target S 2 space. These degrees may be viewed as invariants associated with the abelianization of π 1 (S 2 ? {s 1 , ··· , s n }, *). For nonconformal classes, however, E(H) may be strictly greater than the abelian bound. This stems from the fact that, for nonconformal maps, the number of preimages of certain regular values may necessarily be strictly greater than the absolute value of their degrees.This work is motivated by the theoretical modelling of nematic liquid crystals in confined polyhedral geometries. The results imply new lower and upper bounds for the Dirichlet energy (one-constant Oseen-Frank energy) of reflection-symmetric tangent unit- vector fields in a rectangular prism.     

THE NAVIER-STOKES EQUATIONS WITH THE KINEMATIC AND VORTICITY BOUNDARY CONDITIONS ON NON-FLAT BOUNDARIES

We study the initial-boundary value problem of the Navier-Stokes equations for incompressible fluids in a general domain in R^n with compact and smooth boundary, subject to the kinematic and vorticity boundary conditions on the non-flat boundary. We observe that, under the nonhomogeneous boundary conditions, the pressure p can be still recovered by solving the Neumann problem for the Poisson equation. Then we establish the well-posedness of the unsteady Stokes equations and employ the solution to reduce our initial-boundary value problem into an initial-boundary value problem with absolute boundary conditions. Based on this, we first establish the well-posedness for an appropriate local linearized problem with the absolute boundary conditions and the initial condition （without the incompressibility condition）, which establishes a velocity mapping. Then we develop apriori estimates for the velocity mapping, especially involving the Sobolev norm for the time-derivative of the mapping to deal with the complicated boundary conditions, which leads to the existence of the fixed point of the mapping and the existence of solutions to our initial-boundary value problem. Finally, we establish that, when the viscosity coefficient tends zero, the strong solutions of the initial-boundary value problem in R^n（n ≥ 3） with nonhomogeneous vorticity boundary condition converge in L^2 to the corresponding Euler equations satisfying the kinematic condition.     

SUBORDINATION PROPERTIES OF MULTIVALENT FUNCTIONS INVOLVING AN EXTENDED FRACTIONAL DIFFERINTEGRAL OPERATOR

Well- and Ill-Posedness Issues for a Class of 2D Wave Equation with Exponential Growth

Extending the previous work [1], we establish well-posedness results for a more general class of semilinear wave equations with exponential growth. First, we investigate the well-posedness in the energy space. Then, we prove the propagation of the regularity in the Sobolev spaces HS（IR^2） with s 〉 1. Finally, an ill-posedness result is obtained in HS（IR^2） for s 〈 1.     

GENERALIZED DERIVATIONS ON PARABOLIC SUBALGEBRAS OF GENERAL LINEAR LIE ALGEBRAS

Let P be a parabolic subalgebra of a general linear Lie algebra gl(n, F) over a field F, where n ≥ 3, F contains at least n different elements, and char(F) = 2. In this article, we prove that generalized derivations, quasiderivations, and product zero derivations of P coincide, and any generalized derivation of P is a sum of an inner derivation, a central quasiderivation, and a scalar multiplication map of P. We also show that any commuting automorphism of P is a central automorphism, and any commuting derivation of P is a central derivation.     

AREA INTEGRAL FUNCTIONS AND H∞ FUNCTIONAL CALCULUS FOR SECTORIAL OPERATORS ON HILBERT SPACES

Area integral functions are introduced for sectorial operators on Hilbert spaces. We establish the equivalence relationship between the square and area integral functions. This immediately extends McIntosh/Yagi＇s results on H∞ functional calculus of sectorial operators on Hilbert spaces to the case when the square functions are replaced by the area integral functions.     

FIXED POINTS AND STABILITY FOR QUARTIC MAPPINGS IN β-NORMED LEFT BANACH MODULES ON BANACH ALGEBRAS

The goal of the present paper is to investigate some new HUR-stability results by applying the alternative fixed point of generalized quartic functional equationin β-Banach modules on Banach algebras. The concept of Ulam-Hyers-Rassias stability （briefly, HUR-stability） originated from Th. M. Rassias stability theorem that appeared in his paper： On the stability of the linear mapping in Banach spaces, Proc. Amer. Math. Soc. 72 （1978）, 297-300.

Exact Dark Soliton and Its Persistence in the Perturbed2+1-dimensional Davey-Stewartson System

For the Davey-Stewartson system, the exact dark solitary wave solutions, solitary wave solutions, kink wave solution and periodic wave solutions are studied. To guarantee the existence of the above solutions, all parameter conditions are determined. The persistence of dark solitary wave solutions to the perturbed Davey-Stewartson system is proved.     

MARKOWITZ STRATEGIES REVISED

Continuous-time Markowitz＇s by parameterizing a critical quantity. It mean-variance efficient strategies are modified is shown that these parameterized Markowitz strategies could reach the original mean target with arbitrarily high probabilities. This, in turn, motivates the introduction of certain stopped strategies where stock holdings are liquidated whenever the parameterized Markowitz strategies reach the present value of the mean target. The risk aspect of the revised Markowitz strategies are examined via expected discounted loss from the initial budget. A new portfolio selection model is suggested based on the results of the paper.     

WELL-POSEDNESS OF A COMPRESSIBLE GAS-LIQUID MODEL FOR DEEPWATER OIL WELL OPERATIONS

The main purpose of this paper is two-fold:(i) to generalize an existence result for a compressible gas-liquid model with a friction term recently published by Friis and Evje [SIAM J. Appl. Math., 71(2011), pp. 2014–2047];(ii) to derive a uniqueness result for the same model. A main ingredient in the existence part is the observation that we can consider weaker assumptions on the initial liquid and gas mass, and still obtain an existence result. Compared to the above mentioned work, we rely on a more refined application of the estimates provided by the basic energy estimate. Concerning the uniqueness result, we borrow ideas from Fang and Zhang [Nonlinear Anal. TMA, 58(2004), pp. 719–731] and derive a stability result under appropriate constraints on parameters that determine rate of decay toward zero at the boundary for gas and liquid masses, and growth rate of masses associated with the friction term and viscous coefficient.

ON THE ASYMPTOTIC BEHAVIOR OF HOLOMORPHIC ISOMETRIES OF THE POINCARE DISK INTO BOUNDED SYMMETRIC DOMAINS

In this article we bounded symmetric domains study holomorphic isometries of the Poincare disk into Earlier we solved the problem of analytic continuation of germs of holomorphic maps between bounded domains which are isometrics up to normalizing constants with respect to the Bergman metric, showing in particular that the graph 170 of any germ of holomorphic isometry of the Poincar6 disk A into an irreducible bounded symmetric domain Ω belong to C^N in its Harish-Chandra realization must extend to an affinealgebraic subvariety V belong to C × C^N = C^N＋1, and that the irreducible component of V ∩ （△ × Ω） containing V0 is the graph of a proper holomorphic isometric embedding F ： A→ Ω. In this article we study holomorphie isometric embeddings which are asymptotically geodesic at a general boundary point b ∈ δ△. Starting with the structural equation for holomorphic isometrics arising from the Gauss equation, we obtain by covariant differentiation an identity relating certain holomorphic bisectional curvatures to the boundary behavior of the second fundamental form σ of the holomorphie isometric embedding. Using the nonpositivity of holomorphic bisectional curvatures on a bounded symmetric domain, we prove that ‖σ‖ must vanish at a general boundary point either to the order 1 or to the order 1/2, called a holomorphie isometry of the first resp. second kind. We deal with special cases of non-standard holomorphic isometric embeddings of such maps, showing that they must be asymptotically totally geodesic at a general boundary point and in fact of the first kind whenever the target domain is a Cartesian product of complex unit balls. We also study the boundary behavior of an example of holomorphic isometric embedding from the Poincare disk into a Siegel upper half-plane by an explicit determination of the boundary behavior of holomorphic sectional curvatures in the directions tangent to the embedded Poincare disk, showing that the map is indeed asymptotically totally geodesic at a general boundary point and of the first kind. For the metric computation we make use of formulas for symplectic geometry on Siegel upper half-planes.
