Comparisons of Stokes/Oseen/Newton iteration methods for Navier–Stokes equations with friction boundary conditions

In this paper, we make the comparison of Stokes/Oseen/Newton finite element iteration methods for solving the numerical solutions to Navier–Stokes equations with friction boundary conditions which are of the weak form of the variational inequality problem of the second kind. The comparison of these methods is reflected by the finite element error estimates in the energy norm for velocity and L²$L^2$ norm for pressure.     

Remark on the stability of the large stationary solutions to the Navier–Stokes equations under the general flux condition

Consider stationary weak solutions of the Navier–Stokes equations in a bounded domain in R³${\mathbb{R}}^3$ under the nonhomogeneous boundary condition. We give a new approach for the stability of the stationary flow in the L²$L^2$-framework. Furthermore, we give some examples of stable solutions which may be large in L³(Ω)$L^3\left(\Omega \right)$ or W^1,3/2(Ω)$W^{1,3/2}\left(\Omega \right)$.     

Korn type inequalities in Orlicz spaces

We exhibit balance conditions between a Young function A and a Young function B   for a Korn type inequality to hold between the L^B$L^B$ norm of the gradient of vector-valued functions and the L^A$L^A$ norm of its symmetric part. In particular, we extend a standard form of the Korn inequality in L^p$L^p$, with 1<p<∞$1<p<\infty$, and an Orlicz version involving a Young function A   satisfying both the _Δ2${\mathrm{\Delta }}_2$ and the _∇2${\mathrm{\nabla }}_2$ condition.     

Analysis of one-dimensional Helmholtz equation with PML boundary

In this paper, the linear conforming finite element method for the one-dimensional Bérenger's PML boundary is investigated and well-posedness of the given equation is discussed. Furthermore, optimal error estimates and stability in the L²$L^2$ or H¹$H^1$-norm are derived under the assumption that h$h$, h²ω²$h^2{\omega }^2$ and h²ω³$h^2{\omega }^3$ are sufficiently small, where h$h$ is the mesh size and ω$\omega$ denotes a fixed frequency. Numerical examples are presented to validate the theoretical error bounds.     

Harness processes and harmonic crystals

In the Hammersley harness processes the R$\mathbb{R}$-valued height at each site i∈Z^d$i\in {\mathbb{Z}}^d$ is updated at rate 1 to an average of the neighboring heights plus a centered random variable (the noise). We construct the process “a la Harris” simultaneously for all times and boxes contained in Z^d${\mathbb{Z}}^d$. With this representation we compute covariances and show L²$L^2$ and almost sure time and space convergence of the process. In particular, the process started from the flat configuration and viewed from the height at the origin converges to an invariant measure. In dimension three and higher, the process itself converges to an invariant measure in L²$L^2$ at speed t^1−d/2$t^{1-d/2}$ (this extends the convergence established by Hsiao). When the noise is Gaussian the limiting measures are Gaussian fields (harmonic crystals) and are also reversible for the process.     

Hardy and uncertainty inequalities on stratified Lie groups

We prove various Hardy-type and uncertainty inequalities on a stratified Lie group G  . In particular, we show that the operators _Tα:f?|⋅|^−αL^−α/2f$T_{\alpha }:f?{|\cdot |}^{-\alpha }{L}^{-\alpha /2}f$, where |⋅|$|\cdot |$ is a homogeneous norm, 0<α<Q/p$0<\alpha <Q/p$, and L   is the sub-Laplacian, are bounded on the Lebesgue space L^p(G)$L^p(G)$. As consequences, we estimate the norms of these operators sufficiently precisely to be able to differentiate and prove a logarithmic uncertainty inequality. We also deduce a general version of the Heisenberg–Pauli–Weyl inequality, relating the L^p$L^p$ norm of a function f   to the L^q$L^q$ norm of |⋅|^βf${|\cdot |}^{\beta }f$ and the L^r$L^r$ norm of L^δ/2f$L^{\delta /2}f$.     

Cauchy problem of Schrödinger-Improved Boussinesq Systems on the torus

In this paper, we will study the local well-posedness of Schrödinger-Improved Boussinesq System with additive noise in T^d${\mathbb{T}}^d$, d?1$d?1$, and we will also study the global well-posedness of dimension 1 case with the initial data (_u0,_v1,_v2)∈L²×L²×L²$(u_0,v_1,v_2)\in L^2\times L^2\times L^2$ almost surely, gaining some exponential growth of L²$L^2$ norm of v.     

Explosive solutions of stochastic nonlinear beam equations with damping

This study considers a class of damped stochastic nonlinear beam equations driven by multiplicative noise. By an appropriate energy inequality, we provide sufficient conditions such that the local solutions of the stochastic equations blow up with a positive probability or are explosive in an L²$L^2$ sense. We also derive estimates of the upper bound of the blow-up time.
