Singular problem for a third-order nonlinear ordinary differential equation arising in fluid dynamics

Results concerning singular Cauchy problems, smooth manifolds, and Lyapunov series are used to correctly state and analyze a singular “initial-boundary” problem for a third-order nonlinear ordinary differential equation defined on the entire real axis. This problem arises in viscous incompressible fluid dynamics and describes self-similar solutions to the boundary layer equation for the stream function with a zero pressure gradient (plane-parallel flow in a mixing layer). The analysis of the problem suggests a simple numerical method for its solution. Numerical results are presented.     

BOUNDARY VALUE PROBLEMS FOR A CLASS OF QUASILINEAR DIFFERENTIAL SYSTEMS WITH SINGULAR NONLINEARITIES

In this paper the existence and multiplicities of positive solutions for a class of quasiliear differential systems with singular nonlinearities via Leray-Schaudet degree theory are established.     

Existence of positive solutions of higher-order quasilinear ordinary differential equations

In this paper the even-order quasilinear ordinary differential equation is considered under the hypotheses that n is even, D(α _i )x = (|x|αi−1 x)′, α _i > 0(i = 1,2,…, n), β > 0, and p(t) is a continuous, nonnegative, and eventually nontrivial function on an infinite interval [a, ∞), a > 0. The existence of positive solutions of (1.1) is discussed, and basic results to the classical equation are extended to the more general equation (1.1). In particular, necessary and sufficient integral conditions for the existence of positive solutions of (1.1) are established in the case α ₁α₂⋅s α _n ≠ β.

三阶常系数拟线性泛函微分方程的周期解

研究了一个三阶泛函微分方程周期解的存在唯一性和全局吸引性：x′′′（t）＋ax′′（t）＋bx′（t）＋cx（t）＋g（t,x（tτ））=p（t）.这是一个常系数拟线性泛函微分方程.通过将这个方程转变为三维的拟线性微分方程（组）,得到了这个方程存在唯一周期解的充分条件;通过选取适当的李雅普诺夫函数,推导了这个方程解的全局吸引性;进一步,得到了此方程周期解的全局吸引性.最后,举出了两个应用实例.

Symbolic computation of normal form for Hopf bifurcation in a retarded functional differential equation with unknown parameters

Based on the normal form theory for retarded functional differential equations by Faria and Magalhães, a symbolic computation scheme together with the Maple program implementation is developed to compute the normal form of a Hopf bifurcation for retarded functional differential equations with unknown parameters. Not operating as the usual way of computing the center manifold first and normal form later, the scheme features computing them simultaneously. Great efforts are made to package this task into one Maple program with an input interface provided for defining different systems. The applicability of the Maple program is demonstrated via three kinds of delayed dynamic systems such as a delayed Liénard equation, a simplified drilling model and a delayed three-neuron model. The effectiveness of Maple program is also validated through the numerical simulations of those three systems.

Moreover, the precise asymptotic forms as t→∞ of slowly growing positive solutions and slowly decaying positive solutions are obtained.

New explicit periodic wave solutions and their limits for modified form of Camassa-holm equation

In this paper, we consider the following nonlinear equation ut＋2kux-uxxt＋au^2ux=2uxuxx＋uuxxx,which is a modified form of the Camassa-Holm equation. We construct four new explicit periodic wave solutions by bifurcation method of dynamical systems. We also obtain two explicit solitary wave solutions via the limits of the explicit periodic wave solutions. One of the two solitary wave solutions is new.     

Periodic solutions for a nonautonomous ordinary differential equation

We consider the nonautonomous differential equation of second order x^″+a(t)x−b(t)x²+c(t)x³=0, where a(t),b(t),c(t) are T-periodic functions. This is a biomathematical model of an aneurysm in the circle of Willis. We prove the existence of at least two positive T-periodic solutions for this equation, using coincidence degree theories.

Hopf bifurcation and analysis of equilibrium for a third-order differential equation in a model of competition

1. IntroductionOne of the more challenging aspects of mathematical biology is competition modelling.Although the mathematical idea is simple[1], this type of modelling is so difficult to carryout in any generality since there are so maily ways for a population to compete.The simplest form of competition is called eXPloitative competition. This occurs whenone or more populations compete for the same resources such as a common food supplyor a growth-limiting nutriellt. A simple example of this…
