Weighted pseudo asymptotically periodic mild solutions of evolution equations

In this paper, we propose a new class of functions called weighted pseudo S-asymptotically periodic function in the Stepanov sense and explore its properties in Banach space including composition theorems. Furthermore, the existence, uniqueness of the weighted pseudo S-asymptotically periodic mild solutions to partial evolution equations and nonautonomous semilinear evolution equations are investigated. Some interesting examples are presented to illustrate the main findings.     

Periodic paths on nonautonomous graphs

We define nonautonomous graphs as a class of dynamic graphs in discrete time whose time-dependence consists in connecting or disconnecting edges. We study periodic paths in these graphs, and the associated zeta functions. Based on the analytic properties of these zeta functions we obtain explicit formulae for the number of n-periodic paths, as the sum of the nth powers of some specific algebraic numbers.     

Discrete inertial manifolds

This work is devoted to attractive invariant manifolds for nonautonomous difference equations, occurring in the discretization theory for evolution equations. Such invariant sets provide a discrete counterpart to inertial manifolds of dissipative FDEs and evolutionary PDEs. We discuss their essential properties, like smoothness, the existence of an asymptotic phase, normal hyperbolicity and attractivity in a nonautonomous framework of pullback attraction. As application we show that inertial manifolds of the Allen–Cahn and complex Ginzburg–Landau equation persist under discretization. For the Ginzburg–Landau equation we can also estimate the dimension of the inertial manifold. (© 2008 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)     

Parameter identification in nonlocal nonlinear evolution equations

We develop an approximation framework for identifying parameters in a general class of nonautonomous, nonlocal and nonlinear evolution equations. After establishing existence and uniqueness of solutions, we present a convergence theory for Galerkin approximations to inverse problems involving these equations. Our approach relies on the theory of maximal monotone operators in Banach spaces. An application to a nonautonomous nonlinear integral equation arising in heat flow is also discussed.     

Square-mean almost periodic solutions to some stochastic evolution equations

This paper concerns the square-mean almost periodic mild solutions to a class of abstract nonautonomous functional integro-differential stochastic evolution equations in a real separable Hilbert space. By using the so-called "Acquistapace–Terreni" conditions and the Banach fixed point theorem, we establish the existence, uniqueness and the asymptotical stability of square-mean almost periodic solutions to such nonautonomous stochastic differential equations. As an application, almost periodic solution to a concrete nonautonomous stochastic integro-differential equation is considered to illustrate the applicability of our abstract results.     

Persistence of bounded solutions to degenerate Sobolev-Galpern equations

In this paper the persistence of bounded solutions to degenerate evolution equations of Sobolev-Galpern type is discussed. In order to define the evolution operator well, we study the existence and uniqueness of solutions to its linear form. On this basis we discuss exponential dichotomies of the evolution operator and give the Fredholm alternative result for bounded solutions of nonhomogeneous linear degenerate equations. This result enables us to give a condition for the persistence of bounded solutions of a general degenerate nonlinear autonomous equation under a nonautonomous perturbation.     

Composition of Stepanov-like pseudo almost automorphic functions and applications to nonautonomous evolution equations

In this paper, we establish a new composition theorem about Stepanov-like pseudo almost automorphic functions under the local Lipschitz condition. Using this composition theorem, we also study the existence and uniqueness of pseudo almost automorphic solutions for nonautonomous evolution equations. Our results extend many recent known ones on these topics.     

Existence of weighted pseudo-almost periodic solutions to some classes of nonautonomous partial evolution equations

In this paper, under Acquistapace-Terreni conditions, we make extensive use of interpolation spaces and exponential dichotomy techniques to obtain the existence of weighted pseudo-almost periodic solutions to some classes of nonautonomous partial evolution equations. Applications include the existence of weighted pseudo-almost periodic solutions to a nonautonomous heat equation with gradient coefficients.     

Evolution Systems for Differential Equations with Variable Time Lags

We consider nonautonomous retarded functional differential equations under hypotheses which are designed for the application to equations with variable time lags, which may be unbounded, and construct an evolution system of solution operators which are continuously differentiable. These operators are defined on manifolds of continuously differentiable functions. The results apply to pantograph equations and to nonlinear Volterra integro-differential equations, for example. For linear equations we also provide a simpler evolution system with solution operators on a Banach space of continuous functions.     

Kato’s inequality and Liouville theorems on locally finite graphs

In this paper, we study the Kato’s inequality on locally finite graphs. We also study the application of Kato’s inequality to Ginzburg-Landau equations on such graphs. Interesting properties of elliptic and parabolic equations on the graphs and a Liouville type theorem are also derived.     

Center manifolds of infinite dimensions I: Main results and applications

In this paper, the first of a bipartite work, we consider an abstract, nonautonomous system of evolution equations of hyperbolic type, related to semilinear wave equations. Theorem 1 states that under certain assumptions the system admits a global center manifold, or equivalently a global decoupling function which is continuously differentiable with respect to its arguments, among which timet occurs. The difficult proof is presented in part II, i.e. the continuation of the present paper. For purposes of applications a local version of Theorem 1 is proved, i.e. the local center manifold Theorem 2. We obtain a series of applications both to abstract, nonautonomous wave equations and to concrete nonautonomous, semilinear wave equations subject to Neumann and Dirichlet boundary conditions.     

Regularization for a class of ill-posed evolution problems in Banach space

We study evolution equations in Banach space, and provide a general framework for regularizing a wide class of ill-posed Cauchy problems by proving continuous dependence on modeling for nonautonomous equations. We approximate the ill-posed problem by a well-posed one, and obtain H?lder-continuous dependence results that provide estimates of the error for a class of solutions under certain stabilizing conditions. For examples that include the linearized Korteweg-de Vries equation and the Schr?dinger equation in L ^p ,p??2, we obtain a family of regularizing operators for the ill-posed problem. This work extends to the nonautonomous case several recent results for ill-posed problems with constant coefficients.     

Asymptotic behavior and decay rate estimates for a class of semilinear evolution equations of mixed order

In this article we present a unified approach to study the asymptotic behavior and the decay rate to a steady state of bounded weak solutions of nonlinear, gradient-like evolution equations of mixed first and second order. The proof of convergence is based on the Lojasiewicz-Simon inequality, the construction of an appropriate Lyapunov functional, and some differential inequalities. Applications are given to nonautonomous semilinear wave and heat equations with dissipative, dynamical boundary conditions, a nonlinear hyperbolic-parabolic partial differential equation, a damped wave equation and some coupled system.     

Uniformly attracting solutions of nonautonomous differential equations

Understanding the structure of attractors is fundamental in nonautonomous stability and bifurcation theory. By means of clarifying theorems and carefully designed examples we highlight the potential complexity of attractors for nonautonomous differential equations that are as close to autonomous equations as possible. We introduce and study bounded uniform attractors and repellors for nonautonomous scalar differential equations, in particular for asymptotically autonomous, polynomial, and periodic equations. Our results suggest that uniformly attracting or repelling solutions are the true analogues of attracting or repelling fixed points of autonomous systems. We provide sharp conditions for the autonomous structure to break up and give way to a bewildering diversity of nonautonomous bifurcations.     

Method of limiting equations for the stability analysis of equations with infinite delay in the Carathéodory conditions: II

We consider systems of nonautonomous nonlinear differential equations with the infinite delay. We study the stability properties and the limiting equations whose right-hand sides are defined as the limit points of some sequence in the introduced function space. By using the method of limiting equations, we obtain new sufficient conditions for the asymptotic stability of the zero solution of the considered class of equations.     

A note on the dichotomy spectrum

In many ways, exponential dichotomies are an appropriate hyperbolicity notion for nonautonomous linear differential or difference equations. The corresponding dichotomy spectrum generalizes the classical set of eigenvalues or Floquet multipliers and is therefore of eminent importance in a stability theory for explicitly time-dependent systems, as well as to establish a geometric theory of nonautonomous problems with ingredients like invariant manifolds and normal forms, or to deduce continuation and bifurcation techniques.

In this note, we derive some invariance and perturbation properties of the dichotomy spectrum for nonautonomous linear difference equations in Banach spaces. They easily follow from the observation that the dichotomy spectrum is strongly related to a weighted shift operator on an ambient sequence space.

The existence and uniqueness of mild solutionsare proved. Applications to integro-differential equations are discussed.The main tool in the paper is the normalizing mapping (the generalizednorm).     

Engineering magnetic polariton system with distributed coefficients: Applications to soliton management

In the wake of the recent design of a powerful method for generating higher-dimensional evolution systems with distributed coefficients Kuetche (2014) [15] illustrated on the dynamics of the current-fed membrane of zero Young’s modulus, we construct the general Lax-representation of a new higher-dimensional coupled evolution equations with varying coefficients. Discussing the physical meanings of these equations, we show that the coupled system above describes the propagation of magnetic polaritons within saturated ferrites, resulting structurally from the fast-near adiabatic magnetization dynamics combined to the Maxwell’s equations. Accordingly, we address some practical issues of the nonautonomous soliton managements underlying in the fast remagnetization process of data inputs within magnetic memory devices.     

A class of impulsive nonautonomous differential equations and Ulam–Hyers–Rassias stability

In this paper, we study a model described by a class of impulsive nonautonomous differential equations. This new impulsive model is more suitable to show dynamics of evolution processes in pharmacotherapy than the classical one. We apply Krasnoselskii's fixed point theorem to obtain existence of solutions. Meanwhile, we mainly present the sufficient conditions on Ulam–Hyers–Rassias stability on both compact and unbounded intervals. Many analysis techniques are used to derive our results.
