Another method for computing the densities of integrals of motion for the Korteweg-de Vries equation

In the first section of this article a new method for computing the densities of integrals of motion for the KdV equation is given. In the second section the variation with respect to q of the functional ∫ ₀ ^π w (x,t,x,;q)dx (t is fixed) is computed, where W(x, t, s; q) is the Riemann function of the problem $$\begin{gathered} \frac{{\partial ^z u}}{{\partial x^2 }} - q(x)u = \frac{{\partial ^2 u}}{{\partial t^2 }} ( - \infty< x< \infty ), \hfill \\ u|_{t = 0} = f(x), \left. {\frac{{\partial u}}{{\partial t}}} \right|_{t = 0} = 0. \hfill \\ \end{gathered} $$

Lp-Lq Estimates for a Linear Perturbed Klein-Gordon Equation

We consider L^p-L^q estimates for the solution u(t,x) to tbe following perturbed Klein-Gordon equation ∂_{tt}u - Δu + u + V(x)u = 0 \qquad x∈ R^n, n ≥ 3 u(x,0) = 0, ∂_tu(x,0) = f(x) We assume that the potential V(x) and the initial data f(x) are compact, and V(x) is sufficiently small, then the solution u(t,x) of the above problem satisfies ||u(t)||_q ≤ Ct^{-a}||f||_p for t > 1 where a is the piecewise-linear function of 1/p and 1/q.     

An integral equation and a representation for a Green's function

The final step in the mathematical solution of many problems in mathematical physics and engineering is the solution of a linear, two-point boundary-value problem such as $$\begin{gathered} \ddot u - q(t)u = - g(t), 0< t< x \hfill \\ (0) = 0, \dot u(x) = 0 \hfill \\ \end{gathered} $$ Such problems frequently arise in a variational context. In terms of the Green's functionG, the solution is $$u(t) = \int_0^x {G(t, y, x)g(y) dy} $$ It is shown that the Green's function may be represented in the form $$G(t,y,x) = m(t,y) - \int_y^x {q(s)m(t, s) m(y, s)} ds, 0< t< y< x$$ wherem satisfies the Fredholm integral equation $$m(t,x) = k(t,x) - \int_0^x k (t,y) q(y) m(y, x) dy, 0< t< x$$ and the kernelk is $$k(t, y) = min(t, y)$$

The development of the inverse scattering transform(I.S.T)has made it possible tosolve certain physically significant nonlinear evolution equations with periodic boundaryconditions.Date and Tanaka have considered kdv equation;Ma and Ablowitz havediscussed the cubic Schrodinger equation.In this paper,following closely the analysis in[2,3]the author considers Harry-Dym eqution(q~2)_t=-2r_(xxx)(Ⅰ)where q(x,t)is periodic in x with period π for all time q(x,t)=q(x π,t),q(x,t)=r~(-1)(x,t)>0     

The Initial-Boundary-Value Problems for the Hirota Equation on the Half-Line

An initial boundary-value problem for the Hirota equation on the half-line,0x∞, t0, is analysed by expressing the solution q(x, t) in terms of the solution of a matrix Riemann-Hilbert(RH) problem in the complex k-plane. This RH problem has explicit(x, t) dependence and it involves certain functions of k referred to as the spectral functions. Some of these functions are defined in terms of the initial condition q(x,0) = q_0(x), while the remaining spectral functions are defined in terms of the boundary values q(0, t) = g_0(t), q_x(0, t) = g_1(t) and q_(xx)(0, t) = g_2(t). The spectral functions satisfy an algebraic global relation which characterizes, say, g_2(t) in terms of {q_0(x), g_0(t), g_1(t)}.The spectral functions are not independent, but related by a compatibility condition, the so-called global relation.

On the mixed problem for hyperbolic partial differential-functional equations of the first order

We consider the mixed problem for the hyperbolic partial differential-functional equation of the first order where is a function defined by z _(x,y)(t, s) = z(x + t, y + s), (t, s) [–, 0] × [0, h]. Using the method of bicharacteristics and the method of successive approximations for a certain integral-functional system we prove, under suitable assumptions, a theorem of the local existence of generalized solutions of this problem.     

An initial-boundary value problem for the sine-Gordon equation in laboratory coordinates

We consider the sine-Gordon equation in laboratory coordinates with both x and t in [0, ). We assume that u(x, 0), u_t(x, 0), u(0, t) are given, and that they satisfy u(x, 0)2q, u_t(x, 0)0, for large x, u(0, t)2p for large t, where q, p are integers. We also assume that u_x(x, 0), u_t(x, 0), u_t(0, t), u(0, t)-2p, u(x, 0)-2q L₂. We show that the solution of this initial-boundary value problem can be reduced to solving a linear integral equation which is always solvable. The asymptotic analysis of this integral equation for large t shows how the boundary conditions can generate solitons.The authors dedicate this paper to the memory of M. C.

Existence of solutions for nonlinear singular boundary value problems

Existence of solutions to the two-point boundary value problem (p(t)y')' = q(t)f(t, y,p(t)y'), y(l) = 0, lim_t→0+ p(t)y'(t) = 0 is established under a variety of conditions. Here p(0) = 0 is allowed, and q is not assumed to be continuous at 0, so the problem may be doubly singular. In addition, the Dirichlet problem for this differential equation is investigated     

一类抛物型方程系数反问题的分裂算法

考虑利用终端时刻的温度u(x,T)=Z_T(x)反演热传导方程u_t-a~2u_(xx) q(x)u=0,x∈(0,1)中的未知系数q(x)的反问题.通过引进变换v(x,t)=(u_t(x,t)/u(x,t))将此非线性不适定问题的求解分解为两步.首先利用输入数据迭代求解一个非线性的正问题(该过程独立于未知系数),得到其迭代解v~(k)(x,t).其次利用q(x)与v(x,t)的关系式求出q(x)的近似解.对提出的反演方法,证明了采用的变换的可行性,得到了原反问题与由变换后的非线性正问题反演q(x)的等价性并且证明了迭代解的收敛性,给出了收敛速度.数值结果表明了该方法的有效性.     

The KPI equation with unconstrained initial data

The solutionu(t, x, y) of the Kadomtsev-Petviashvili I (KPI) equation with given initial data u(0,x, y) belonging to the Schwartz space is considered. No additional special constraints, usually considered in the literature as dxu(0,x,y)=0 are required to be satisfied by the initial data. The spectral theory associated with KPI is studied in the space of the Fourier transform of the solutions. The variablesp={p ₁,p ₁} of the Fourier space are shown to be the most convenient spectral variables to use for spectral data. Spectral data are shown to decay rapidly at largep but to be discontinuous atp=0. Direct and inverse problems are solved with special attention to the behavior of all the quantities involved in the neighborhood oft=0 andp=0. It is shown in particular that the solutionu(t, x, y) has a time derivative discontinuous att = 0 and that at anyt 0 it does not belong to the Schwartz space no matter how small in norm and rapidly decaying at large distances the initial data are chosen.Work supported in part by Ministero delle Universitá e della Recerca Scientifica e Technologica, India.     

Lexicographic quasiconcave multiobjective programming

Summary Letf _i :A R ben real-valued objective functions on a convex setA -K ^m ,K:=R orC, n, mN. Letg: A R ⁿ be defined by , where for eachxA, (i ₁ (x), ..., i _n (x)) is a permutation of (1, ...,n) such that . In this paper we treat the problem of findingx ^*A such that , wherel-max denotes the lexicographic maximum. If the f_i's are strongly quasiconcave we can reduce the problem stepwise until finally it is in the form of a scalar programming problem. Further, we consider conditions for the existence and uniqueness of a solution and discuss the relationship of the problem to the vector maximum (i.e. Pareto) and maxmin (i.e. Chebychev) problems.
