求解定常不可压Stokes方程的两层罚函数方法

借助于两套有限元网格空间提出了一种求解定常不可压Stokes方程的两层罚函数方法.该方法只需要求解粗网格空间上的Stokes方程和细网格空间上的两个易于求解的罚参数方程（离散后的线性方程组具有相同的对称正定系数矩阵）.收敛性分析表明粗网格空间相对于细网格空间可以选择很小，并且罚参数的选取只与粗网格步长和问题的正则性有关.因此罚参数不必选择很小仍能够得到最优解.最后通过数值算例验证了上述理论结果，并且数值对比可知两层罚函数方法对于求解定常不可压Stokes方程具有很好的效果.     

Local boundedness of weak solutions to the Diffusive Wave Approximation of the Shallow Water equations

In this paper we prove that weak solutions to the Diffusive Wave Approximation of the Shallow Water equations

${?}_{t}u?\mathrm{?}?({(u?z)}^{\alpha }|\mathrm{?}u{|}^{\gamma ?1}\mathrm{?}u)=f$

are locally bounded. Here, u describes the height of the water, z is a given function that represents the land elevation and f is a source term accounting for evaporation, infiltration or rainfall.     

Thermalization of electron–positron plasma with quantum degeneracy

The non-equilibrium electron–positron–photon plasma thermalization process is studied using relativistic Boltzmann solver, taking into account quantum corrections both in non-relativistic and relativistic cases. Collision integrals are computed from exact QED matrix elements for all binary and triple interactions in the plasma. It is shown that in non-relativistic case (temperatures $k_{B}T\le 0.3m_e{c}^2$) binary interaction rates dominate over triple ones, resulting in establishment of the kinetic equilibrium prior to final relaxation towards the thermal equilibrium, in agreement with the previous studies. On the contrary, in relativistic case (final temperatures $k_{B}T\ge 0.3m_e{c}^2$) triple interaction rates are fast enough to prevent the establishment of kinetic equilibrium. It is shown that thermalization process strongly depends on quantum degeneracy in initial state, but does not depend on plasma composition.     

Existence,nonexistence and multiplicity results for nonlocal Dirichlet problems

In this paper we establish various existence, nonexistence and multiplicity results for fully nonlinear Dirichlet problems associated to nonlocal Hamilton–Jacobi equations. This study is accomplished by a careful analysis of the principal eigenvalues of the elliptic operator. Resonance phenomena and anti maximum principles are also established.
