where τ (0, ∞), σ [0, ∞), Q(t) C([t₀, ∞), R ⁺ ), r(t) C([t₀, ∞), (0, ∞)) with r(t) nondecreasing on [t₀ − τ, ∞). We shall show that all positive solutions of ( * ) can be classified into four types, A, B, C, and D, and we shall obtain sufficient and necessary conditions for the existence of A-type, B-type, and D-type positive solutions of ( * ), respectively. A sufficient condition for the existence of C-type positive solutions of ( * ) is also given. Finally, we shall offer a sharp oscillation result for all solutions of ( * ). Our results generalize and improve those established in B. Yang and B. G. Zhang (Funkcial. Ekvac.39 (1996), 347–362).

Design criteria of a chemical reactor based on a chaotic flow

We consider the design criteria of a chemical mixing device based on a chaotic flow, with an emphasis on the steady-state devices. The merit of a reactor, defined as the Q-factor, is related to the physical dimension of the device and the molecular diffusivity of the reactants through the local Lyapunov exponents of the flow. The local Lyapunov exponent can be calculated for any given flow field and it can also be measured in experimental situations. Easy-to-compute formulae are provided to estimate the Q-factor given either the exact spatial dependence of the local Lyapunov exponent or its probability distribution function. The requirements for optimization are made precise in the context of local Lyapunov exponents. (c) 1999 American Institute of Physics.

对coupled-pair many-electron theory(CPMET)展开中的非线性四体效应采取了近似处理,用角动量图技术和两体函数方法得到了适用于一般闭壳层原子的径向微分方程。然后以X_a模型作为零级近似,通过迭代求解成功地计算了Ne原子基态的任意阶相相关能,从而说明至少对于闭壳层原子体系而言,用X_a模型作零级近似同样可以进行成功的多体理论计算。     

Single and Multi-Interval Legendre τ-Methods in Time for Parabolic Equations

In this paper, we take the parabolic equation with periodic boundary conditions as a model to present a spectral method with the Fourier approximation in spatial and single/multi-interval Legendre Petrov–Galerkin method in time. For the single interval spectral method in time, we obtain the optimal error estimate in L ²-norm. For the multi-interval spectral method in time, the L ²-optimal error estimate is valid in spatial. Numerical results show the efficiency of the methods.     

RELAXATION AND EXISTENCE IN NONISOTROPICAL PLASTICITY PROBLEMS

Giving a nonisotropic plasticity problem on a Sobolev Space, the author tries to relax it to a new problem whioh is posed on a subset of BD (Ω). It is proved that this relaxation does not change the equilibrium energy and that the solutions exist in such settings under not too restricted conditions.     

Localized defects in classical one-dimensional models

Several aspects of localized defects in the Frenkel-Kontorova, classicalXY chain and analogous models with a finite range of interactions are discussed from a general point of view. Precise definitions are given for defect phase shifts (charges) and for creation, pinning, and interaction energies. Corresponding definitions are also provided for interfaces (localized regions separating two phases). For the nearest-neighbor Frenkel-Kontorova model, the various defect energies are related to areas enclosed by contours joining heteroclinic points of the area-preserving map generated by the conditions of mechanical equilibrium.
