The long‐time behaviour of the thermoconvective flow in a porous medium

For the Boussinesq approximation of the equations of coupled heat and fluid flow in a porous medium we show that the corresponding system of partial differential equations possesses a global attractor. We give lower and upper bounds of the Hausdorff dimension of the attractor depending on a physical parameter of the system, namely the Rayleigh number of the flow. Numerical experiments confirm the theoretical findings and raise new questions on the structure of the solutions of the system. Copyright © 2004 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Analysis of finite dimensional approximations to a class of partial differential equations

In this paper, a unified approach for analysing finite dimensional approximations to a class of partial differential equations boundary value problems (second‐kind Fredholm differential equations) is introduced. The approach is shown to be general despite of its extremely simple form. In particular, it is expected to be useful in the convergence analysis of finite element methods for solving PDE problems. Three specific examples are presented to illustrate the broad applicability of the approach. Copyright © 2004 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

金纳米粒子光学性质中的尺寸和形状效应

纳米尺度的金属及半导体呈现出特殊的光学、电学及磁学性质,采用近年发展起来的离散偶极近似(DDA)的方法,我们分析了金纳米粒子的尺寸及形状对其光学性质的影响。粒子周围介质的影响在文中亦作了分析。计算结果显示,金纳米粒子的等离子体吸收带同时受到粒子尺寸和形状的影响,但来自形状的影响更为明显。与米氏理论及扩展的甘氏理论相比较,DDA方法在粒子尺寸不再远小于入射光波长的时候更准确,并能应用于任何形状的纳米粒子。理论计算与实验结果能较好的吻合。     

单调全局最优化问题的凸化外逼近算法

单调优化是指目标函数与约束函数均为单调函数的全局优化问题．本文提出一种新的凸化变换方法把单调函数化为凸函数，进而把单调优化问题化为等价的凸极大或凹极小问题，然后采用Hoffman的外逼近方法来求得问题的全局最优解．我们把这种凸化方法同Tuy的Polyblock外逼近方法作了比较，通过数值比较可以看出本文提出的凸化的方法在收敛速度上明显优于Polyblock方法．

Wavelets and adaptive grids for the discontinuous Galerkin method

In this paper, space adaptivity is introduced to control the error in the numerical solution of hyperbolic systems of conservation laws. The reference numerical scheme is a new version of the discontinuous Galerkin method, which uses an implicit diffusive term in the direction of the streamlines, for stability purposes. The decision whether to refine or to unrefine the grid in a certain location is taken according to the magnitude of wavelet coefficients, which are indicators of local smoothness of the numerical solution. Numerical solutions of the nonlinear Euler equations illustrate the efficiency of the method.     

Decomposition Methods for Differentiable Optimization Problems over Cartesian Product Sets

This paper presents a unified analysis of decomposition algorithms for continuously differentiable optimization problems defined on Cartesian products of convex feasible sets. The decomposition algorithms are analyzed using the framework of cost approx imation algorithms. A convergence analysis is made for three decomposition algorithms: a sequential algorithm which extends the classical Gauss-Seidel scheme, a synchronized parallel algorithm which extends the Jacobi method, and a partially asynchronous parallel algorithm. The analysis validates inexact computations in both the subproblem and line search phases, and includes convergence rate results. The range of feasible step lengths within each algorithm is shown to have a direct correspondence to the increasing degree of parallelism and asynchronism, and the resulting usage of more outdated information in the algorithms.

Browder-Petryshyn 型的严格伪压缩映射的粘滞迭代逼近方法

主要研究Browder-Petryshyn型的严格伪压缩映射的粘滞迭代逼近过程,证明了Browder-Petryshyn型的严格伪压缩映射的不动点集F(T)是闭凸集．在q-一致光滑且一致凸的Banach空间中,对于严格伪压缩映射T,利用徐洪坤在2004年引进的粘滞迭代得到的序列弱收敛于T的某个不动点．同时证明了Hilbert空间中Browder-Petryshyn型的严格伪压缩映射的相应迭代序列强收敛到T的某个不动点,其结果推广与改进了徐洪坤2004年的相应结果．
