Energy method for computing periodic solutions of strongly nonlinear systems (I) — Autonomous systems

In this paper a new method for solving for the periodic solution (limit cycle) of a strongly nonlinear system is suggested. Using this method not only the existence, stability and number of periodic solutions can be decided, but at the same time the approximate expressions for these periodic solutions can also be obtained. The proof of this method is given as well.The project is supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China.

High‐temperature superconductivity and long‐range order in strongly correlated electronic systems

A selective review of the question of how repulsive electron correlations might give rise to off‐diagonal long‐range order (ODLRO) in high‐temperature superconductors is presented. The article makes detailed explanations of the relevance to superconductivity of reduced electronic density matrices and how these can be used to understand whether ODLRO might arise from Coulombic repulsions in strongly correlated electronic systems. Time‐reversed electron pairs on alternant Cuprate and the iron‐based pnictide and chalcogenide lattices may have a weak long‐range attractive tail and much stronger short‐range repulsive Coulomb interaction. The long‐range attractive tail may find its origin in one of the many suggested proposals for high‐T_c superconductivity and thus has an uncertain origin. A phenomenological Hamiltonian is invoked whose model parameters are obtained by fitting to experimental data. A detailed summary is given of the arguments that such interacting electrons can cooperate to produce a superconducting state in which time‐reversed pairs of electrons effectively avoid the repulsive hard‐core of the Coulomb interaction but reside on average in the attractive well of the long‐range potential. Thus, the pairing of electrons itself provides an enhanced screening mechanism. The alternant lattice structure is the key to achieving robust high‐temperature superconductivity with dx²‐y² or sign alternating s‐wave or s± condensate symmetries in cuprates and iron‐based compounds. Some attention is also given to the question first raised by Leggett as to where the Coulombic energy is saved in the superconducting transition in cuprates. A mean‐field‐type model in which the condensate density serves as an order parameter is discussed. Many of the observed trends in the thermal properties of cuprate superconductors are reproduced giving strong support for the proposed model for high‐temperature superconductivity in such strongly correlated electronic systems. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.     

Gorenstein injective envelopes and covers over two sided noetherian rings

We prove that the class of Gorenstein injective modules is both enveloping and covering over a two sided noetherian ring such that the character modules of Gorenstein injective modules are Gorenstein flat. In the second part of the paper we consider the connection between the Gorenstein injective modules and the strongly cotorsion modules. We prove that when the ring R is commutative noetherian of finite Krull dimension, the class of Gorenstein injective modules coincides with that of strongly cotorsion modules if and only if the ring R is in fact Gorenstein.     

Multiple Scales via Galerkin Projections: Approximate Asymptotics for Strongly Nonlinear Oscillations

The method of multiple scales and the related method of averaging are commonly used tostudy slowly modulated oscillations. If the system of interest is a slightlyperturbed harmonic oscillator, then these techniques can be applied easily. If the unperturbed system is strongly nonlinear (though possiblyconservative), then these methods can run into difficulties due to the impossibilityof carrying out required analytical operations in closed form.In this paper, we abandon the requirement of closed form analyticaltreatment at all stages. Instead, Galerkin projections are used toobtain approximate realizations of the method of multiple scales. Thispaper adapts recent work using similar ideas for approximaterealizations of the method of averaging. A key contribution of thepresent work is in the systematic identification and removal of secularterms in the general nonlinear case, a procedure that is more difficultthan for the perturbed harmonic oscillator case, and that is unnecessaryfor averaging.A strength of the present work is that the heuristics (Galerkin)and asymptotics (multiple scales) are kept distinct,leaving room for systematic refinement of the formerwithout compromising the asymptotic features of the latter.

The Existence Stability and Approximate Expressions of Periodic Solutions of Strongly Nonlinear Nonautonomous Systems with Multi-Degree-of-Freedom

Based upon the conservation of average energy a theorem about the periodic solutions of strongly nonlinear nonautomous systems with multi-degree-of freedom is proved. This theorem can not only decide the existence and stability of the periodic solutions, but at the same time can also give their first-order and second-order approximate expressions.     

Localization and Screening Enhancement in Asymmetric Binary Ionic Mixtures

The equation of state of binary ionic mixtures of similar ions, such as nitrogen, oxygen and carbon, has been extensively studied. The study of dense asymmetric mixtures, where Z₂ >> Z₁, has primarily focused on mixtures of hydrogen and iron at solar conditions. Using molecular dynamics simulations, we examine the behavior of highly asymmetric binary ionic mixtures, where the coupling of the high‐Z species may be orders of magnitude higher than the coupling of the low‐Z species. For the conditions we have studied, we find that strong correlations and signatures of solidification occur in the high‐Z species, while the low‐Z species exists as a freely flowing fluid within the high‐Z solid matrix. Solidification of the low‐Z species is correlated with the coupling between the two components. Using the Widom expansion method, we compute the plasma screening enhancement of the nuclear reaction rates for Z = 1 in a high‐Z matrix. We also provide some estimates of the coefficient of binary diffusion in the mixture. (© 2015 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
