Complexity of asymptotic behavior of solutions for the porous medium equation with absorption

In this paper we analyze the large time behavior of nonnegative solutions of the Cauchy problem of the porous medium equation with absorption u t-u m + γup = 0, where γ≥ 0, m 1 and p m + 2/N . We will show that if γ = 0 and 0 μ 2N/(N(m-1)+2), or γ 0 and 1/(p-1)μ2N/(N(m-1)+2), then for any nonnegative function φ in a nonnegative countable subset F of the Schwartz space S (R N ), there exists an initial-value u0 ∈C(RN) with lim x →∞ u 0 (x) = 0 such that φ is an ω-limit point of the rescaled solutions t μ/2 u(t β·, t), where β =[2-μ(m-1)]/4 .

EXISTENCE OF EXTREME SOLUTION TO FIRST-ORDER IMPULSIVE DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS WITH NONLINEAR BOUNDARY CONDITIONS

This paper is concerned with the existence of extreme solutions to three-point boundary value problems with nonlinear boundary conditions for a class of first order impulsive differential equations. We obtain suficient conditions for the existence of extreme solutions by the upper and lower solutions method coupled with a monotone iterative technique.     

Description of periodic extreme gibbs measures of some lattice models on the Cayley tree

The uniqueness of the translation-invariant extreme Gibbs measure for the antiferromagnetic Potts model with an external field and the existence of an uncountable number of extreme Gibbs measures for the Ising model with an external field on the Cayley tree are proved. The classes of normal subgroups of finite index of the Cayley tree group representation are constructed. The periodic extreme Gibbs measures, which are invariant with respect to subgroups of index 2, are constructed for the Ising model with zero external field. From these measures, the existence of an uncountable number of nonperiodic extreme Gibbs measures for the antiferromagnatic Ising model follows.

On the existence of periodic solutions for differential inclusions

In this paper we study the existence of periodic solutions for differential inclusions. We prove existence theorems under various sets of hypotheses for both the nonconvex and convex problems. Also we show the existence of extreme solutions. Some feedback control systems are also considered.     

Existence and relaxation theorems for extreme continuous selectors of multifunctions with decomposable values

We present some extreme continuous selector theorems, synthesizing the author's results; namely, we study existence and properties of continuous selectors from the set of extreme points of multifunctions with closed convex decomposable values in the space of Bochner integrable functions.     

The invariant subspace problem

A fundamental problem is to determine whether every bounded linear transformation in Hilbert space has a nontrivial invariant subspace. A formal proof [1] of the existence of invariant subspaces is given by the theory of square summable power series [2] in its vector formulation [3]. A determination of extreme points of a convex set remains for the justification of the formal argument. A characterization of extreme points which implies the existence of invariant subspaces has been conjectured [4]. New information is obtained from a localization of the theory of square summable power series [5] which allows the formulation of extreme point problems which are closely related because of the Carathéodory-Fejér extension theorem [6]. The conjectured characterization of extreme points is shown to be false. Extreme points need not have the properties required for the construction of invariant subspaces.     

Three dimensional line stochastic matrices and extreme points

Several properties of the extreme points of the convex set of three dimensional line stochastic matrices of order n are presented. The existence of many different classes of extremal configurations is established. These extremal matrices exhibit a large variety of patterns with some unexpected configurations. Latin squares of special types are used in some of the existence results. Furthermore, three questions raised by Brualdi and Csima are answered concerning the extreme points of three dimensional plane stochastic matrices of order n.

Continuous selector of representative measures and the space of faces of a convex compactum

A sufficient condition for the existence of a continuous selector of representative measure, concentrated at the extreme points of a convex metrizable compactum, is considered. A necessary condition for the existence of such a selector is deduced. An example is given of a convex compactum with a closed set of extreme points, for which no continuous selector exists.Translated from Matematicheskie Zametki, Vol. 22, No. 6, pp. 897–906, December, 1977.In conclusion, the author expresses deep gratitude to A. M. Vershik for the formulation of the problem and for help in the preparation of this paper.
