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 .

Also, we verify that these solutions concentrate at a global minimum point of the least energy function.     

Positive solutions for a Lotka-Volterra prey-predator model with cross-diffusion and Holling type-Ⅱ functional response

We consider a Lotka-Volterra prey-predator model with cross-diffusion and Holling type-II functional response.The main concern is the existence of positive solutions under the combined effect of cross-diffusion and Holling type-II functional response.Here,a positive solution corresponds to a coexistence state of the model.Firstly,we study the sufficient conditions to ensure the existence of positive solutions by using degree theory and analyze the coexistence region in parameter plane.In addition,we present the uniqueness of positive solutions in one dimension case.Secondly,we study the stability of the trivial and semi-trivial solutions by analyzing the principal eigenvalue of the corresponding linearized system,and then we characterize the stable/unstable regions of semi-trivial solutions in parameter plane.     

NONEXISTENCE AND EXISTENCE OF POSITIVE SOLUTIONS FOR 2nTH-ORDER SINGULAR SUPERLINEAR PROBLEMS WITH STRUM-LIOUVILLE BOUNDARY CONDITIONS

This paper investigates a class of 2nth-order singular superlinear problems with Strum-Liouville boundary conditions. We obtain a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of C 2 n- 2 [0, 1] positive solutions, and a sufficient condition, a necessary condition for the existence of C 2 n-1 [0, 1] positive solutions. Relations between the positive solutions and the Green’s functions are depicted. The results are used to judge nonexistence or existence of positive solutions for given boundary value problems.     

Existence and uniqueness of positive solutions of semilinear elliptic equations

This paper is devoted to the study of existence,uniqueness and non-degeneracy of positive solutions of semi-linear elliptic equations.A necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of positive solutions to problems is given.We prove that if the uniqueness and non-degeneracy results are valid for positive solutions of a class of semi-linear elliptic equations,then they are still valid when one perturbs the differential operator a little bit.As consequences,some uniqueness results of positive solutions under the domain perturbation are also obtained.     

关于非线性矩阵方程$X^s-A^*X^{-t}A=Q$的Hermitian正定解及其扰动估计

In this paper, the Hermitian positive definite solutions of the nonlinear matrix equation X^s - A^＊X^-tA = Q are studied, where Q is a Hermitian positive definite matrix, s and t are positive integers. The existence of a Hermitian positive definite solution is proved. A sufficient condition for the equation to have a unique Hermitian positive definite solution is given. Some estimates of the Hermitian positive definite solutions are obtained. Moreover, two perturbation bounds for the Hermitian positive definite solutions are derived and the results are illustrated by some numerical examples.

Global positive periodic solutions of age-dependent competing systems

This paper is to investigate positive periodic solutions of a biological system composed of two competing species. The existence and uniqueness of nonnegative solutions to the model for a set of given vital rates and initial distribution are treated and the contractive property of the solutions explored. Based on these results, some simple conditions for the global existence of positive periodic orbits are established by means of Horn’s asymptotic fixed point theorem.

Positive Solutions for a Lotka–Volterra Prey–Predator Model with Cross-Diffusion of Fractional Type

In this paper we consider a Lotka–Volterra prey–predator model with cross-diffusion of fractional type. The main purpose is to discuss the existence and nonexistence of positive steady state solutions of such a model. Here a positive solution corresponds to a coexistence state of the model. Firstly we study the stability of the trivial and semi-trivial solutions by analyzing the principal eigenvalue of the corresponding linearized system. Secondly we derive some necessary conditions to ensure the existence of positive solutions, which demonstrate that if the intrinsic growth rate of the prey is too small or the death rate (or the birth rate) of the predator is too large, the model does not possess positive solutions. Thirdly we study the sufficient conditions to ensure the existence of positive solutions by using degree theory. Finally we characterize the stable/unstable regions of semi-trivial solutions and coexistence regions in parameter plane.     

A qualitative study on general Gause-type predator–prey models with non-monotonic functional response

In this paper, we study a diffusive predator–prey model with general growth rates and non-monotonic functional response under homogeneous Neumann boundary condition. A local existence of periodic solutions and the asymptotic behavior of spatially inhomogeneous solutions are investigated. Moreover, we show the existence and non-existence of non-constant positive steady-state solutions. Especially, to show the existence of non-constant positive steady-states, the fixed point index theory is used without estimating the lower bounds of positive solutions. More precisely, calculating the indexes at the trivial, semi-trivial and positive constant solutions, some sufficient conditions for the existence of non-constant positive steady-state solutions are studied. This is in contrast to the works in previous papers. Furthermore, on obtaining these results, we can observe that the monotonicity of a prey isocline at the positive constant solution plays an important role.     

Positive solutions for ratio-dependent predator-prey interaction systems

In this paper, we study the dynamics of predator-prey interaction systems between two species with ratio-dependent functional responses. First we provide sufficient and necessary conditions for positive steady-state solutions, and then we investigate the relationships between positive equilibria and positive solutions of the system over a large domain. Furthermore, we deal with the uniqueness and the stability of positive steady-states solutions with some assumptions. In addition, we discuss the extinction and the persistence results of time-dependent positive solutions to the system.     

On the semilinear reaction diffusion system arising from nuclear reactors

In this work, the initial-boundary value problem for a class of semilinear reaction-diffusion systems is considered. By an abstract fixed point theorem on positive cone together with an accurate a priori estimate, we establish the coexistence of the positive stationary solutions and the uniqueness of ordered positive stationary solutions. Next, we study the global existence and blowup of positive solutions and obtain a threshold result. Finally, we give the blowup rate estimate of positive blowup solutions.     

A note on positive non-constant steady-state solutions to a reaction-diffusion model

In the present paper, we investigate a reaction-diffusion system with feedback effect subject to the homogeneous Neumann boundary condition and study the positive steady-state solutions. We establish a priori estimates for positive steady-state solutions and derive some results for non-existence of positive non-constant steady-state solutions. Our analysis complements the existing results on this model.
