In this paper we present the analysis of an algorithm of Uzawa type to compute solutions of the quasi variational inequality $$\begin{gathered} (QVI)\left( {\frac{{\partial ^2 u}}{{\partial t^2 }},\upsilon - \frac{{\partial u}}{{\partial t}}} \right) + \left( {\frac{{\partial u}}{{\partial x}},\frac{{\partial \upsilon }}{{\partial x}} - \frac{{\partial ^2 u}}{{\partial x\partial t}}} \right) + \left( {\frac{{\partial ^2 u}}{{\partial x\partial t}},\frac{{\partial \upsilon }}{{\partial x}} - \frac{{\partial ^2 u}}{{\partial x\partial t}}} \right) + \hfill \\ + \left[ {u(1,t) + \frac{{\partial u}}{{\partial t}}(1,t)} \right]\left[ {\upsilon (1) - \frac{{\partial u}}{{\partial t}}(1,t)} \right] + J(u;\upsilon ) - J\left( {u;\frac{{\partial u}}{{\partial t}}} \right) \geqslant \hfill \\ \geqslant \left( {f,\upsilon - \frac{{\partial u}}{{\partial t}}} \right) + F(t)\left[ {\upsilon (0) - \frac{{\partial u}}{{\partial t}}(0,t)} \right],t > 0,\forall \upsilon \in H^1 (0,1), \hfill \\ \end{gathered} $$ which is a model for the dynamics of a pile driven into the ground under the action of a pile hammer. In (QVI) (...) is the scalar product inL ²(0, 1) andJ(u;.) is a convex functional onH ¹(0, 1), for eachu, describing the soil-pile friction effect.

Approximation by Nörlund means of double fourier series to continuous functions in two variables

We study the rate of uniform approximation by Nörlund means of the rectangular partial sums of double Fourier series of continuous functionsf(x, y), 2π-periodic in each variable. The results are given in terms of the modulus of symmetric smoothness defined by $$\begin{gathered} \omega _2 \left( {f,\delta _1 ,\delta _2 } \right) = \mathop {\sup }\limits_{x,y} \mathop {\sup }\limits_{\left| u \right| \leqslant \delta _1 ,\left| v \right| \leqslant \delta _2 } \left| {f\left( {x + u,y + v} \right)} \right. + f\left( {x + u,y - v} \right) + f\left( {x - u,y + v} \right) \hfill \\ + \left. {f\left( {x - u,y - v} \right) + 4f\left( {x,y} \right)} \right| for \delta _1 ,\delta _2 \geqslant 0. \hfill \\ \end{gathered} $$ As a special case we obtain the rate of uniform approximation to functionsf(x,y) in Lip({α, β}), the Lipschitz class, and inZ({α, β}), the Zygmund class of ordersα andβ, 0<α,β ≤ l, as well as the rate of uniform approximation to the conjugate functions \(\tilde f^{(1,0)} (x,y), \tilde f^{(0,1)} (x,y)\) and \(\tilde f^{(1,1)} (x,y)\) .     

Difference schemes for one class of variational inequalities and fourth-order mixed boundary-value problem

A difference scheme is constructed for the solution of the variational equation $$\begin{gathered} a\left( {u, v} \right)---u \geqslant \left( {f, v---u} \right)\forall v \varepsilon K,K \{ vv \varepsilon W_2^2 \left( \Omega \right) \cap \mathop {W_2^1 \left( \Omega \right)}\limits^0 ,\frac{{\partial v}}{{\partial u}} \geqslant 0 a.e. on \Gamma \} ; \hfill \\ \Omega = \{ x = (x_1 ,x_2 ):0 \leqslant x_\alpha< l_\alpha ,\alpha = 1, 2\} \Gamma = \bar \Omega - \Omega ,a(u, v) = \hfill \\ = \int\limits_\Omega {\Delta u\Delta } vdx \equiv (\Delta u,\Delta v, \hfill \\ \end{gathered} $$ The following bound is obtained for this scheme: $$\left\| {y - u} \right\|_{W_2 \left( \omega \right)}^2 = 0(h^{(2k - 5)/4} )u \in W_2^k \left( \Omega \right),\left\| {y - u} \right\|_{W_2^2 \left( \omega \right)} = 0(h^{\min (k - 2;1,5)/2} ),u \in W_\infty ^k \left( \Omega \right) \cap W_2^3 \left( \Omega \right)$$ The following bounds are obtained for the mixed boundary-value problem: $$\begin{gathered} \left\| {y - u} \right\|_{W_2^2 \left( \omega \right)} = 0\left( {h^{\min \left( {k - 2;1,5} \right)} } \right),u \in W_\infty ^k \left( \Omega \right),\left\| {y - u} \right\|_{W_2^2 \left( \omega \right)} = 0\left( {h^{k - 2,5} } \right), \hfill \\ u \in W_2^k \left( \Omega \right),k \in \left[ {3,4} \right] \hfill \\ \end{gathered} $$ .

О последовательност ях сумм Фурье-Уолша ограниченных функци й

Let L^∞ denote the space of measurable 1-periodic essentially bounded functionsf(x) with ∥f∥=vrai sup ¦f(x)¦,S _k (f, x) thek-th partial sum of the Walsh-Fourier series off(x),L _k thek-th Lebesgue constant. The following theorem is proved. Theorem. Letλ={λ _K } be a sequence of nonnegative numbers, $$\left\| \lambda \right\|_1 = \mathop \sum \limits_{k = 1}^\infty \lambda _k< \infty ,\left\| \lambda \right\|_2 = (\mathop \sum \limits_{k = 1}^\infty \lambda _k^2 )^{1/2} ,m = log[(\left\| \lambda \right\|_1 /\left\| \lambda \right\|_2 )]$$ .Then for an arbitrary function f∈L ^∞ the following inequalities hold true $$\begin{gathered} \left\| {\mathop \sum \limits_{k = 1}^\infty \lambda _k \left| {S_k (f,x)} \right|} \right\| \leqq \mathop \sum \limits_{k = 1}^\infty \lambda _k (L_{[k2 - 2m]} + c)\left\| f \right\|, \hfill \\ \hfill \\ \mathop \sum \limits_{k = 1}^\infty \lambda _k \left\| {S_k (f)} \right\| \leqq \mathop \sum \limits_{k = 1}^\infty \lambda _k (L_{[k2 - m]} + c)\left\| f \right\| \hfill \\ \end{gathered} $$ , where[y] denotes integral part of a number y>0 and c is an absolute constant. A corollary of the above theorem is that for each functionfεL ^∞ the Lebesgue estimate can be refined for a certain sequence of indices, while the growth order of Lebesgue constants along that sequence can be arbitrarily close to the logarithmic one. “In the mean”, however, the Lebesgue estimate is exact. A further corollary deals with strong summability.     

On the existence of solutions for an elliptic system of equations with arbitrary order growth

Let BR be the ball centered at the origin with radius R in RN ( N ≥2). In this paper we study the existence of solution for the following elliptic systemu -△u+λu=p/(p + q)κ(| x |)) u(p-1)vq1,x ∈BR1,-△u+λu=p/(p + q)κ(| x |)) upv(q-1)1,x ∈BR1,u > 01,v > 01,x ∈ BR1,(u)/(v)=01,(v)/(v)=01,x ∈BRwhereλ > 0 , μ > 0 p ≥ 2, q ≥ 2,ν is the unit outward normal at the boundary BR . Under certainassumptions on κ ( | x | ), using variational methods, we prove the existence of a positive and radially increasing solution for this problem without growth conditions on the nonlinearity.     

Some Tauberian conditions for Cesàro summability method

The formula for the number of order-preserving selfmappings of a fence

LetY be a fence of sizem andr=?m?1/2?. The numberb(m) of order-preserving selfmappings ofY is equal toA _r-B_r-C_r-D_r, where, ifm is odd, $$\begin{gathered} A_r = 2(r + 1)\sum\limits_{s = 0}^r {\left( {\begin{array}{*{20}c} {r + s} \\ {2s} \\ \end{array} } \right)} 4^s , B_r = 2r\sum\limits_{s = 1}^r {\left( {\begin{array}{*{20}c} {r + s} \\ s \\ \end{array} } \right)\left( {\begin{array}{*{20}c} {r - 1} \\ {s - 1} \\ \end{array} } \right),} \hfill \\ C_r = 4r\sum\limits_{s = 0}^{r - 1} {\left( {\begin{array}{*{20}c} {r + s} \\ s \\ \end{array} } \right)\left( {\begin{array}{*{20}c} {r - 1} \\ s \\ \end{array} } \right), D_r = \sum\limits_{s = 0}^{r - 1} {(2s + 1)} \left( {\begin{array}{*{20}c} {r + s - 1} \\ s \\ \end{array} } \right)\left( {\begin{array}{*{20}c} {r - 1} \\ s \\ \end{array} } \right)} \hfill \\ \end{gathered} $$ . Ifm is even, a similar formula forb(m) is true. The key trick in the proof is a one-to-one correspondence between order-preserving selfmappings ofY and pairs consisted of a partition ofY and a strictly increasing mapping of a subfence ofY toY.

General decay and blow-up of solutions for a viscoelastic equation with nonlinear boundary damping-source interactions

In this paper, a viscoelastic equation with nonlinear boundary damping and source terms of the form $$\begin{array}{llll}u_{tt}(t)-\Delta u(t)+\displaystyle\int\limits_{0}^{t}g(t-s)\Delta u(s){\rm d}s=a\left\vert u\right\vert^{p-1}u,\quad{\rm in}\,\Omega\times(0,\infty), \\ \qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad u=0,\,{\rm on}\,\Gamma_{0} \times(0,\infty),\\ \dfrac{\partial u}{\partial\nu}-\displaystyle\int\limits_{0}^{t}g(t-s)\frac{\partial}{\partial\nu}u(s){\rm d}s+h(u_{t})=b\left\vert u\right\vert ^{k-1}u,\quad{\rm on} \ \Gamma_{1} \times(0,\infty) \\ \qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad u(0)=u^{0},u_{t}(0)=u^{1},\quad x\in\Omega, \end{array}$$ is considered in a bounded domain ??. Under appropriate assumptions imposed on the source and the damping, we establish both existence of solutions and uniform decay rate of the solution energy in terms of the behavior of the nonlinear feedback and the relaxation function g, without setting any restrictive growth assumptions on the damping at the origin and weakening the usual assumptions on the relaxation function g. Moreover, for certain initial data in the unstable set, the finite time blow-up phenomenon is exhibited.
