In this paper,we estimate the dimension of the global attractor for nonlinear dissipative Kirchhoff equation in Hilbert spaces H ₀¹×L ²(Ω) and D(A)×H ₀¹(Ω). Using rescaling technology and linear variation method, we obtain the upper bound for its Hausdorff and fractal dimensions.     

A note on certain square functions on product spaces

We study certain square functions on product spaces Rn × Rm, whose integral kernels are obtained from kernels which are homogeneous in each factor Rn and Rm and locally in L(log L) away from Rn × {0} and {0} × Rm by means of polynomial distortions in the radial variable. As a model case, we obtain that the Marcinkiewicz integral operator is bounded on Lp(Rn × Rm)(P > 1) for Ω∈ e Llog L(Sn-1 × Sm-1) satisfying the cancellation condition.

A note on Sobolev orthogonality for Laguerre matrix polynomials

Let {Ln(A,λ)(x)}n≥0 be the sequence of monic Laguerre matrix polynomials defined on [0, ∞) by Ln(A,λ)(x)=n!/(-λ)n∑nk=0(-λ)κ/k!(n-1)! (A I)n[(A I)k]-1 xk,where A ∈ Cr×r. It is known that {Ln(A,λ)(x)}n≥0 is orthogonal with respect to a matrix moment functional when A satisfies the spectral condition that Re(z) ＞ - 1 for every z ∈σ(A).In this note we show that forA such that σ(A) does not contain negative integers, the Laguerre matrix polynomials Ln(A,λ) (x) are orthogonal with respect to a non-diagonal SobolevLaguerre matrix moment functional, which extends two cases: the above matrix case and the known scalar case.     

Asymptotic behaviour of time‐dependent Ginzburg–Landau equations of superconductivity

In this paper, we establish the global fast dynamics for the time‐dependent Ginzburg–Landau equations of superconductivity. We show the squeezing property and the existence of finite‐dimensional exponential attractors for the system. In addition we prove the existence of the global attractor in L² × L² for the Ginzburg–Landau equations in two spatial dimensions. Copyright © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

On a singular integral on product spaces

We show that if K(x,y)=Ω(x,y)/|x|ⁿ|y|^m is a Calder n-Zygmund kerned on Rⁿ×R^m, where Ω∈L²(Sⁿ⁻¹×S^m−1) and b(x,y) is any bounded function which is radial with x∈Rⁿ and y∈R^m respectively, then b(x,y)K(x,y) is the kernel of a convolution operator which is bounded on L^p(Rⁿ×R^m) for 1<p<∞ and n≧2, m≧2.

In this paper, we consider the global existence, uniqueness and L ^∞ estimates of weak solutions to quasilinear parabolic equation of m-Laplacian type u _t − div(|∇u| ^m−2∇u) = u|u| ^β−1 ∫_Ω |u| ^α dx in Ω × (0,∞) with zero Dirichlet boundary condition in tdΩ. Further, we obtain the L ^∞ estimate of the solution u(t) and ∇u(t) for t > 0 with the initial data u ₀ ∈ L ^q (Ω) (q > 1), and the case α + β < m − 1.

Further Results on the Existence of Splitting BIBDs and Application to Authentication Codes

Let (v,u×c,λ)-splitting BIBD denote a (v,u×c,λ)-splitting balanced incomplete block design of order v with block size u×c and index λ. Necessary conditions for the existence of a (v,u×c,λ)-splitting BIBD are v≥uc, λ(v−1)≡0 (mod c(u−1)) and λ v(v−1)≡0 (mod (c ² u(u−1))). We show in this paper that the necessary conditions for the existence of a (v,3×3,λ)-splitting BIBD are also sufficient with possible exceptions when (1) (v,λ)∈{(55,1),(39,9k):k=1,2,…}, (2) λ≡0 (mod 54) and v≡0 (mod 2). We also show that there exists a (v,3×4,1)-splitting BIBD when v≡1 (mod 96). As its application, we obtain a new infinite class of optimal 4-splitting authentication codes.     

Attractor for lattice system of dissipative Zakharov equation

We consider the asymptotic behavior of solutions of an infinite lattice dynamical system of dissipative Zakharov equation. By introducing new weight inner product and norm in the space and establishing uniform estimate on ＂Tail End＂ of solutions, we overcome some difficulties caused by the lack of Sobolev compact embedding under infinite lattice system, and prove the existence of the global attractor; then by using element decomposition and the covering property of a polyhedron in the finite-dimensional space, we obtain an upper bound for the Kolmogorov ε-entropy of the global attractor; finally, we present the upper semicontinuity of the global attractor.     

Removable singularities and non-uniqueness of solutions of a singular diffusion equation

 We prove that the solution u of the equation u _t =Δlog u, u>0, in (Ω\{x ₀})×(0,T), Ω⊂ℝ², has removable singularities at {x ₀}×(0,T) if and only if for any 0<α<1, 0<a<b<T, there exist constants ρ₀, C ₁, C ₂>0, such that C ₁ |x−x ₀|^α≤u(x,t)≤C ₂|x−x ₀|^−α holds for all 0<|x−x ₀|≤ρ₀ and a≤t≤b. As a consequence we obtain a sufficient condition for removable singularities at {∞}×(0,T) for solutions of the above equation in ℝ²×(0,T) and we prove the existence of infinitely many finite mass solutions for the equation in ℝ²×(0,T) when 0≤u ₀∉L ¹ (ℝ²) is radially symmetric and u ₀L _loc ¹(ℝ²).

Some Conditions for Matrices over an Incline To Be Invertible and General Linear Group on an Incline

Inclines are the additively idempotent semirings in which products are less than or equal to either factor. In this paper, some necessary and sufficient conditions for a matrix over L to be invertible are given, where L is an incline with 0 and 1. Also it is proved that L is an integral incline if and only if GLn（L） = PLn （L） for any n （n 〉 2）, in which GLn（L） is the group of all n × n invertible matrices over L and PLn（L） is the group of all n × n permutation matrices over L. These results should be regarded as the generalizations and developments of the previous results on the invertible matrices over a distributive lattice.     

On semi-fredholm properties of a boundary value problem inR + n

The paper considers a boundary value problem with the help of the smallest closed extensionL ^∼ :H _k →H _{k 0}×B _{h 1}×...×B _{h N} of a linear operatorL :C ₍₀₎ ^∞ (R ₊ ⁿ ) →L(R ₊ ⁿ )×L(R ⁿ⁻¹)×...×L(R ⁿ⁻¹). Here the spacesH _k (the spaces ℬ _h ) are appropriate subspaces ofD′(R ₊ ⁿ ) (ofD′(R ⁿ⁻¹), resp.),L(R ₊ ⁿ ) andC ₍₀₎ ^∞ (R ₊ ⁿ )) denotes the linear space of smooth functionsR ⁿ →C, which are restrictions onR ₊ ⁿ of a function from the Schwartz classL (fromC ₀ ^∞ , resp.),L(R ⁿ⁻¹) is the Schwartz class of functionsR ⁿ⁻¹ →C andL is constructed by pseudo-differential operators. Criteria for the closedness of the rangeR(L ^∼) and for the uniqueness of solutionsL ^∼ U=F are expressed. In addition, ana priori estimate for the corresponding boundary value problem is established.     

Kolmogorov＇s ε-Entropy of Bounded Sets in Discrete Spaces and Attractors of Dissipative Lattice Systems

We obtain an estimate of the upper bound for Kolmogorov＇s ε-entropy for the bounded sets with small ＂tail＂ in discrete spaces, then we present a sufficient condition for the existence of a global attractor for dissipative lattice systems in a reflexive Banach discrete space and establish an upper bound of Kolmogorov＇s ε-entropy of the global attractor for lattice systems.     

A Description of the Global Attractor for a Class of Reaction – Diffusion Systems with Periodic Solutions

We examine the autonomous reaction–diffusion system with Dirichlet boundary conditions on (0, 1), where α, β are real, α > 0, and g is C¹ and satisfies some conditions which we need in order to prove the existence of solutions. We construct a solution of (RD) for every initial value in L²((0, 1)) × L²((0, 1)), we show that this solution is uniquely determined and that the solution has C^∞–smooth representatives for all positive t. We determine the long time behaviour of each solution. In particular, we show that each solution of (RD) tends either to the zero solution or to a periodic orbit. We construct all periodic orbits and show that their number is always finite. It turns out that the global attractor is a finite union of subsets of L² × L², which are finite–dimensional manifolds, and the dynamics in these sets can be described completely.     

Continuity of Weak Solutions for Quasilinear Parabolic Equations with Strong Degeneracy

The aim of this paper is to study the continuity of weak solutions for quasilinear degenerate parabolic equations of the form U_t-Δφ(u)=O, whereφ■C~1(R~1)is a strictly monotone increasing function.Clearly,the above equation has strong degeneracy,i.e.,the set of zero points ofφ′(·)is permitted to have zero measure. This is an answer to an open problem in[13,p.288].     

Spaces of lower semicontinuous set-valued maps II

We introduce a lower semicontinuous analog, L ⁻(X), of the well-studied space of upper semicontinuous set-valued maps with nonempty compact interval images. Because the elements of L ⁻(X) contain continuous selections, the space C(X) of real-valued continuous functions on X can be used to establish properties of L ⁻(X), such as the two interrelated main theorems. The first of these theorems, the Extension Theorem, is proved in this Part I. The Extension Theorem says that for binormal spaces X and Y, every bimonotone homeomorphism between C(X) and C(Y) can be extended to an ordered homeomorphism between L ⁻(X) and L ⁻(Y). The second main theorem, the Factorization Theorem, is proved in Part II. The Factorization Theorem says that for binormal spaces X and Y, every ordered homeomorphism between L ⁻(X) and L ⁻(Y) can be characterized by a unique factorization.     

Global attractor for the weakly damped forced KdV equation in Sobolev spaces of low regularity

We consider the global attractor for the weakly damped forced KdV equation in Sobolev spaces [(H)\dot]^s(T){\dot{H}^s({\mathbf T})}for s < 0. Under the assumption that the external forcing term belongs to [(L)\dot]²(T),{\dot{L}^2({\mathbf T}),} we prove the existence of the global attractor in [(H)\dot]^s(T){\dot{H}^s({\mathbf T})} for −1/2 ≤ s < 0, which is identical to the one in [(L)\dot]²(T){\dot{L}^2({\mathbf T})} and thus is compact in H ³(T). The argument is a combination of the I-method and decomposing the solution into two parts, one of which is uniformly bounded in [(L)\dot]²(T){\dot{L}^2({\mathbf T})} and the other decays exponentially in [(H)\dot]^s(T){\dot{H}^s({\mathbf T})}.     

Bound states and scattered states for contraction semigroups

LetA generate a strongly continuous contraction semigroup {T(t)} on a Hilbert space and letL be a bounded operator. IfL(ζI−A)⁻¹ is compact, then the Cesàro limit of ‖LT(t)f‖² (ast→∞) is computed for all vectorsf. This limit is interpreted in terms of bound and scattered states in the context of quantum mechanical and classical wave propagation problems. Partially supported by a NSF grant.
