优化端点条件的平面二次均匀B样条插值曲线

在利用反求法构造B样条插值曲线时，往往需要选取端点条件。 因此，可对端点条件进行优化选取，使得构造的B样条插值曲线满足特定要求。提出了一种利用曲线内能极小选取平面二次均匀B样条插值曲线端点条件的算法。首先给出了二次均匀B样条插值曲线分控制顶点与首个控制顶点（即端点条件）的递推关系式；然后给出了利用曲线内能极小优化选取首个控制顶点的算法，证明了利用该算法构造的C¹连续二次均匀B样条插值曲线为保形插值，并通过数值算例证明了算法的有效性；最后，为便于实际应用，基于MATLAB平台设计了算法所对应的图形用户界面，用户通过简单的操作即可获得光顺的C¹连续二次均匀B样条保形插值曲线。     

Persistence properties and wave‐breaking criteria for the Geng‐Xue system

Considered herein is a two‐component Novikov equations (called Geng‐Xue system for short) with cubic nonlinearities. The persistence properties and some unique continuation properties of the solutions to the system in weighted L_p spaces are established. Moreover, a wave‐breaking criterion for strong solutions is determined in the lowest Sobolev space by using the localization analysis in the transport equation theory, and we also give a lower bound for the maximal existence time.     

A mixed hp FEM for the approximation of fourth‐order singularly perturbed problems on smooth domains

We consider fourth‐order singularly perturbed problems posed on smooth domains and the approximation of their solution by a mixed Finite Element Method on the so‐called Spectral Boundary Layer Mesh. We show that the method converges uniformly, with respect to the singular perturbation parameter, at an exponential rate when the error is measured in the energy norm. Numerical examples illustrate our theoretical findings.     

Explicit uniform bounds on integrals of Bessel functions and trace theorems for Fourier transforms

Explicit and partly sharp estimates are given of integrals over the square of Bessel functions with an integrable weight which can be singular at the origin. They are uniform with respect to the order of the Bessel functions and provide explicit bounds for some smoothing estimates as well as for the L² restrictions of Fourier transforms onto spheres in which are independent of the radius of the sphere. For more special weights these restrictions are shown to be Hölder continuous with a Hölder constant having this independence as well. To illustrate the use of these results a uniform resolvent estimate of the free Dirac operator with mass in dimensions is derived.     

Development and analysis of a malaria transmission mathematical model with seasonal mosquito life-history traits

In this paper, we develop and analyze a malaria model with seasonality of mosquito life-history traits: periodic-mosquitoes per capita birth rate, -mosquitoes death rate, -probability of mosquito to human disease transmission, -probability of human to mosquito disease transmission, and -mosquitoes biting rate. All these parameters are assumed to be time dependent leading to a nonautonomous differential equation system. We provide a global analysis of the model depending on two threshold parameters and (with ). When , then the disease-free stationary state is locally asymptotically stable. In the presence of the human disease-induced mortality, the global stability of the disease-free stationary state is guarantied when . On the contrary, if , the disease persists in the host population in the long term and the model admits at least one positive periodic solution. Moreover, by a numerical simulation, we show that a sub-critical (backward) bifurcation is possible at . Finally, the simulation results are in accordance with the seasonal variation of the reported cases of a malaria-epidemic region in Mpumalanga province in South Africa.     

Low Mach limit to one-dimensional nonisentropic planar compressible magnetohydrodynamic equations

This paper is concerned with a one-dimensional nonisentropic compressible planar magnetohydrodynamic flow with general initial data, whose behaviors at far fields x→±∞ are different. The low Mach limit for the system is rigorously justified. The limit relies on the uniform estimates including weighted time derivatives and an extended convergence lemma.
