Spectral analysis of the Euler‐Bernoulli beam model with fully nonconservative feedback matrix

The Euler‐Bernoulli beam model with fully nonconservative boundary conditions of feedback control type is investigated. The output vector (the shear and the moment at the right end) is connected to the observation vector (the velocity and its spatial derivative on the right end) by a 2 × 2 matrix (the boundary control matrix), all entries of which are nonzero real numbers. For any combination of the boundary parameters, the dynamics generator, , of the model is a non–self‐adjoint matrix differential operator in the state Hilbert space. A set of 4 self‐adjoint operators, defined by the same differential expression as on different domains, is introduced. It is proven that each of these operators, as well as , is a finite‐rank perturbation of the same self‐adjoint dynamics generator of a cantilever beam model. It is also shown that the non–self‐adjoint operator, , shares a number of spectral properties specific to its self‐adjoint counterparts, such as (1) boundary inequalities for the eigenfunctions, (2) the geometric multiplicities of the eigenvalues, and (3) the existence of real eigenvalues. These results are important for our next paper on the spectral asymptotics and stability for the multiparameter beam model.

Screen‐type boundary value problems for polymetaharmonic equations

In this paper, we consider the three‐dimensional Riquier‐type and Dirichlet‐type screen boundary value problems for the polymetaharmonic equation with real wave numbers k₁ and k₂. We investigate these problems by means of the potential method and the theory of pseudodifferential equations, prove the existence and uniqueness of solutions in Sobolev–Slobodetski spaces, and on the basis of asymptotic analysis, we establish the best Hölder smoothness results for solutions.

Pseudo asymptotically periodic solutions for Volterra integro‐differential equations

In this paper, we propose a new class of functions called pseudo ‐asymptotically ω‐periodic function in the Stepanov sense and explore its properties in Banach spaces including composition results. Furthermore, the existence and uniqueness of the pseudo ‐asymptotically ω‐periodic mild solutions to Volterra integro‐differential equations is investigated. Applications to integral equations arising in the study of heat conduction in materials with memory are shown. Copyright © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Global existence and asymptotic behavior of classical solutions for a 3D two‐species chemotaxis‐Stokes system with competitive kinetics

This paper considers the 2‐species chemotaxis‐Stokes system with competitive kinetics under homogeneous Neumann boundary conditions in a 3‐dimensional bounded domain with smooth boundary. Both chemotaxis‐fluid systems and 2‐species chemotaxis systems with competitive terms were studied by many mathematicians. However, there have not been rich results on coupled 2‐species–fluid systems. Recently, global existence and asymptotic stability in the above problem with (u·∇)u in the fluid equation were established in the 2‐dimensional case. The purpose of this paper is to give results for global existence, boundedness, and stabilization of solutions to the above system in the 3‐dimensional case when is sufficiently small.

Spatial‐skin effect for eigenvibrations of a thick cascade junction with ‘heavy’ concentrated masses

A spectral problem for the Laplace operator in a thick cascade junction with concentrated masses is considered. This cascade junction consists of the junction's body and a great number of ?‐alternating thin rods belonging to two classes. One class consists of rods of finite length, and the second one consists of rods of small length of order . The density of the junction is of order on the rods from the second class and outside of them. The asymptotic behavior of eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of this problem is studied as ? → 0. There exist five qualitatively different cases in the asymptotic behavior of eigenmagnitudes as ? → 0, namely the case of ‘light’ concentrated (α ∈ (0,1)), ‘middle’ concentrated (α = 1), and ‘heavy’ concentrated masses (α ∈ (1, + ∞ )) that we divide into ‘slightly heavy’ concentrated (α ∈ (1,2)), ‘intermediate heavy’ concentrated (α = 2), and ‘very heavy’ concentrated masses (α > 2). In the paper, we study in detail the influence of the concentrated masses on the asymptotic behavior if α ∈ (1,2). We construct the leading terms of asymptotic expansions both for the eigenvalues and eigenfunctions and prove the corresponding asymptotic estimates. Copyright © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Existence of multiplicity harmonic and subharmonic solutions for second‐order quasilinear equation via Poincaré‐Birkhoff twist theorem

In this paper, we investigate the existence and multiplicity of harmonic and subharmonic solutions for second‐order quasilinear equation where , g satisfies the superlinear condition at infinity. We prove that the given equation possesses harmonic and subharmonic solutions by using the phase‐plane analysis methods and a generalized version of the Poincaré‐Birkhoff twist theorem.     

Far‐field patterns of solutions of the perturbed Dirac equation

The purpose of the paper is to study the asymptotic behavior at infinity of solutions of a perturbed Dirac equation in called k‐monogenic. Every such solution is a solution of the Helmholtz equation with values in a complex Clifford algebra. The main goal is to use the far‐field pattern to characterize the radiating (outgoing) k‐monogenic functions among the radiating solutions of the Helmholtz equation. It will be shown that an algebraic condition characterizes these far‐field patterns. Copyright © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Concentration phenomena for a fractional Schrödinger‐Kirchhoff type equation

In this paper, we deal with the multiplicity and concentration of positive solutions for the following fractional Schrödinger‐Kirchhoff type equation where ε>0 is a small parameter, is the fractional Laplacian, M is a Kirchhoff function, V is a continuous positive potential, and f is a superlinear continuous function with subcritical growth. By using penalization techniques and Ljusternik‐Schnirelmann theory, we investigate the relation between the number of positive solutions with the topology of the set where the potential attains its minimum.

On the mixed problem for the semilinear Darcy‐Forchheimer‐Brinkman PDE system in Besov spaces on creased Lipschitz domains

The purpose of this paper is to study the mixed Dirichlet‐Neumann boundary value problem for the semilinear Darcy‐Forchheimer‐Brinkman system in L _p ‐based Besov spaces on a bounded Lipschitz domain in ${\mathbb{R}}^3$, with p in a neighborhood of 2. This system is obtained by adding the semilinear term | u | u to the linear Brinkman equation. First, we provide some results about equivalence between the Gagliardo and nontangential traces, as well as between the weak canonical conormal derivatives and the nontangential conormal derivatives. Various mapping and invertibility properties of some integral operators of potential theory for the linear Brinkman system, and well‐posedness results for the Dirichlet and Neumann problems in L _p ‐based Besov spaces on bounded Lipschitz domains in ${\mathbb{R}}^n$(n ≥3) are also presented. Then, using integral potential operators, we show the well‐posedness in L ₂‐based Sobolev spaces for the mixed problem of Dirichlet‐Neumann type for the linear Brinkman system on a bounded Lipschitz domain in ${\mathbb{R}}^n$(n ≥3). Further, by using some stability results of Fredholm and invertibility properties and exploring invertibility of the associated Neumann‐to‐Dirichlet operator, we extend the well‐posedness property to some L _p ‐based Sobolev spaces. Next, we use the well‐posedness result in the linear case combined with a fixed point theorem to show the existence and uniqueness for a mixed boundary value problem of Dirichlet and Neumann type for the semilinear Darcy‐Forchheimer‐Brinkman system in L _p ‐based Besov spaces, with p ∈(2?ε ,2+ε ) and some parameter ε >0.
