Auxiliary principle and three-step iterative algorithms for generalized set-valued strongly nonlinear mixed variational-like inequalities

An auxiliary principle technique to study a class of generalized set-valued strongly nonlinear mixed variational-like inequalities is extended. The existence and uniqueness of the solution of the auxiliary problem for the generalized set-valued strongly nonlinear mixed variational-like inequalities are proved, a novel and innovative three-step iterative algorithm to compute approximate solution is constructed, and the existence of the solution of the generalized set-valued strongly nonlinear mixed variational-like inequality is shown using the auxiliary principle technique. The convergence of three-step iterative sequences generated by the algorithm is also proved.

非线性电报方程组的3个双周期正解问题

This paper studies existence of at least three positive doubly periodic solutions of a coupled nonlinear telegraph system with doubly periodic boundary conditions. First, by using the Green function and maximum principle, existence of solutions of a nonlinear telegraph system is equivalent to existence of fixed points of an operator. By imposing growth conditions on the nonlinearities, existence of at least three fixed points in cone is obtained by using the Leggett-Williams fixed point theorem to cones in ordered Banach spaces. In other words, there exist at least three positive doubly periodic solutions of nonlinear telegraph system.

On the thermodynamic consistency of the equivalence principle in continuum damage mechanics

We consider theories of continuum damage mechanics involving damage effect variables of different tensorial ranks. It turns out that orthotropic damage together with the use of Lemaitre's equivalence principle for the elastic part does not allow thermodynamic potentials such as the free enthalpy to exist. As the existence of these potentials is, however, a strict thermodynamic requirement, a theory employing orthotropic damage in this way is inconsistent. We show that the use of a rank-4 damage effect variable allows a consistent use of the equivalence principle.     

On <Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis>th-order nonlinear ordinary random differential equations

An existence result for a nonlinear nth-order ordinary random differential equation is proved under the Carathéodory condition. Two existence results for extremal random solutions are also proved in the Carathéodory case and the discontinuous case of the nonlinearity involved in the equations. Our investigations are carried out in the Banach space of continuous real-valued functions on closed bounded intervals of the real line together with the application of a random version of the Leray–Schauder principle.     

Breathers for a Relativistic Nonlinear Wave Equation

 A new class of one-dimensional relativistic nonlinear wave equations with a singular δ-type nonlinear term is considered. The sense of the equations is defined according to the least-action principle. The energy and momentum conservation is established. The main results are the existence of time-periodic finite-energy solutions, the existence of global solutions and soliton-type asymptotics for a class of finite-energy initial data.

Variational Formulation of the First Principle of Continuum Thermodynamics

The First Principle of Continuum Thermodynamics is formulated as a variational condition whose test fields are piecewise constant virtual temperatures. Lagrange multipliers theorem is applied to relax the constraint of piecewise constancy of test fields. This provides the existence of square summable vector fields of heat flow through the body fulfilling a virtual thermal work principle, analogous to the virtual work principle in Mechanics. The issue of compatibility of thermal gradients is dealt with and expressed by the complementary variational condition. Primal, complementary and mixed variational inequalities leading to computational methods in heat-conduction boundary-value problems are briefly discussed.     

Traveling Waves in Discrete Periodic Media for Bistable Dynamics

This paper is concerned with the existence, uniqueness, and global stability of traveling waves in discrete periodic media for a system of ordinary differential equations exhibiting bistable dynamics. The main tools used to prove the uniqueness and asymptotic stability of traveling waves are the comparison principle, spectrum analysis, and constructions of super/subsolutions. To prove the existence of traveling waves, the system is converted to an integral equation which is common in the study of monostable dynamics but quite rare in the study of bistable dynamics. The main purpose of this paper is to introduce a general framework for the study of traveling waves in discrete periodic media.     

Traveling Wave Solutions for a Class of Predator–Prey Systems

We use a shooting method to show the existence of traveling wave fronts and to obtain an explicit expression of minimum wave speed for a class of diffusive predator?Cprey systems. The existence of traveling wave fronts indicates the existence of a transition zone from a boundary equilibrium to a co-existence steady state and the minimum wave speed measures the asymptotic speed of population spread in some sense. Our approach is a significant improvement of techniques introduced by Dunbar. The advantage of our method is that it does not need the notion of Wazewski??s set and LaSalle??s invariance principle used in Dunbar??s approach. In our approach, we convert the equations for traveling wave solutions to a system of first order equations by a ??non-traditional transformation??. With this converted new system, we are able to construct a Liapunov function, which gives an immediate implication of the boundedness and convergence of the relevant class of heteroclinic orbits. Our method provides a more efficient way to study the existence of traveling wave solutions for general predator?Cprey systems.     

Front-Like Entire Solutions for Monostable Reaction-Diffusion Systems

This paper is concerned with front-like entire solutions for monostable reaction-diffusion systems with cooperative and non-cooperative nonlinearities. In the cooperative case, the existence and asymptotic behavior of spatially independent solutions (SIS) are first proved. Further, combining a SIS and traveling fronts with different wave speeds and propagation directions, the existence and various qualitative properties of entire solutions are established by using the comparison principle. In the non-cooperative case, we introduce two auxiliary cooperative systems and establish a comparison theorem for the Cauchy problems of the three systems, and then prove the existence of entire solutions via using the comparison theorem, the traveling fronts and SIS of the auxiliary systems. Our results are applied to some biological and epidemiological models. To the best of our knowledge, it is the first work to study the entire solutions of non-cooperative reaction-diffusion systems.
