Finite element analysis of thermally coupled nonlinear Darcy flows

We consider a coupled system describing nonlinear Darcy flows with temperature dependent viscosity and with viscous heating. We first establish existence, uniqueness, and regularity of the weak solution of the system of equations. Next, we decouple the coupled system by a fixed point algorithm and propose its finite element approximation. Finally, we present convergence analysis with an error estimate between continuous solution and its iterative finite element approximation.© 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Fujita type exponent for fully nonlinear parabolic equations and existence results

In this paper, we prove that a class of parabolic equations involving a second order fully nonlinear uniformly elliptic operator has a Fujita type exponent. These exponents are related with an eigenvalue problem in all RN and play the same role in blow-up theorems as the classical p^?=1+2/N introduced by Fujita for the Laplacian. We also obtain some associated existence results.     

Global weak solutions for a two-component Camassa-Holm shallow water system

In this paper, we prove the existence of global weak solution for an integrable two-component Camassa-Holm shallow water system provided the initial data satisfying some certain conditions.     

Global strong solutions for a class of compressible non‐Newtonian fluids with vacuum

We study a class of compressible non‐Newtonian fluids in one space dimension. We prove, by using iterative method, the global time existence and uniqueness of strong solutions provided that the initial data satisfy a compatibility condition and the initial density is small in its H¹‐norm. The main difficulty is due to the strong nonlinearity of the system and the initial vacuum. Copyright © 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

SHORT COMMUNICATION SECTION Some Geometric Flows on Kahler Manifolds

We define a kind of KdV （Korteweg-de Vries） geometric flow for maps from a real line or a circle into a Kahler manifold （N,J,h） with complex structure J and metric h as the generalization of the vortex filament dynamics from a real line or a circle. By using the geometric analysis, the existence of the Cauchy problems of the KdV geometric flows will be investigated in this note.     

ABOUT HYBRID BIDIRECTIONAL ASSOCIATIVE MEMORY NEURAL NETWORKS WITH DISCRETE DELAYS

In this paper, hybrid bidirectional associative memory neural networks with discrete delays is considered. By ingeniously importing real parameters di > 0(i = 1,2,···,n) which can be adjusted, we establish some new sufficient conditions for the dynamical characteristics of hybrid bidirectional associative memory neural networks with discrete delays by the method of variation of parameters and some analysis techniques. Our results generalize and improve the related results in [10,11]. Our work is significant...     

On finiteness and continuity of shot noise processes

For a rather general class of stochastic processes induced by time-stationary and by event-stationary random marked point processes, respectively, conditions are given for the almost sure finiteness of these processes and for their continuous dependence on the underlying random marked point process.     

Prevention of blow-up by fast diffusion in chemotaxis

In this paper, we study a strongly coupled parabolic system with cross diffusion term which models chemotaxis. The diffusion coefficient goes to infinity when cell density tends to an allowable maximum value. Such ‘fast diffusion’ leads to global existence of solutions in bounded domains for any given initial data irrespective of the spatial dimension, which is usually the goal of many modifications to the classical Keller–Segel model. The key estimates that make this possible have been obtained by a technique that uses ideas from Moser's iterations.
