Effect of spherically symmetric mass flow from the surface of a particle on the force of interaction with a plane surface

A stationary velocity field of the flow of a gaseous medium generated by uniform radial injection from the surface of a spherical particle near a wall is considered in the Stokes' approximation. Bispherical coordinates are used to write the expression for the stream function. A formula is obtained for the force acting on the spherical particle when there is an arbitrary mass flow from its surface, generalizing earlier results /1, 2/. An expression for the force acting on the particle is obtained for the case of spherically symmetric injection from the surface of the particle, and asymptotic formulas at short and long distances from the wall are studied.

An analogous problem concerning the forces of interaction between two spherical particles of the same radius, when uniform injection of equal intensity takes place from their surfaces, is discussed. This is equivalent to the problem of the interaction of a spherical particle with a free surface. A general expression for the force of interaction, and its asymptotic forms for short and long distances, are obtained.     

A self-similar solution to the equation of gas filtration in a spherically symmetric porous medium

We consider the Cauchy problem for the Boussinesq equation which describes filtration of a gas in a spherically symmetric porous medium. For the self-similar solution to this problem we construct a formal in the neighborhood of the point r → ∞ expansion and a convergent near r = 0 one.     

Landweber iterative method for an inverse source problem of time-fractional diffusion-wave equation on spherically symmetric domain

In this paper, an inverse source problem of time-fractional diffusion-wave equation on spherically symmetric domain is considered. In general, this problem is ill-posed. Landweber iterative method is used to solve this inverse source problem. The error estimates between the regularization solution and the exact solution are derived by an a-priori and an a-posteriori regularization parameters choice rules. The numerical examples are presented to verify the efficiency and accuracy of the proposed methods.     

Global spherically symmetric classical solution to the Navier-Stokes-Maxwell system with large initial data and vacuum

We study the initial boundary value problem to the system of the compressible Navier-Stokes equations coupled with the Maxwell equations through the Lorentz force in a bounded annulus Ω of R3. And a result on the existence and uniqueness of global spherically symmetric classical solutions is obtained. Here the initial data could be large and initial vacuum is allowed.     

Spherically symmetric flow for a viscous radiative and reactive gas in a field of potential forces with large initial data

In this article, we are concerned with the asymptotic behavior of spherically symmetric solution of a viscous radiative and reactive gas in a field of external force in an unbounded domain exterior to the unit sphere in for n ≥ 3. The global solution is proved to exist uniquely and converges to the stationary solution as time tends to infinity for large initial data. It is crucial to deduce uniform positive lower and upper bounds on the specific volume and the temperature.     

A Decomposition Theorem for Lévy Processes on Local Fields

The study of Lévy processes on local fields has been initiated by Albeverio et al. (1985)–(1998) and Evans (1989)–(1998). In this paper, a decomposition theorem for Lévy processes on local fields is given in terms of a structure result for measures on local fields and a Lévy–Khinchine representation. It is shown that a measure on a local field can be decomposed into three parts: a spherically symmetric measure, a totally non-spherically symmetric measure and a singular measure. We show that if the Radon–Nikodym derivative of the absolutely continuous part of a Lévy measure on a local field is locally constant, the Lévy process is the sum of a spherically symmetric random walk, a finite or countable set of totally non, spherically symmetric Lévy processes with single balls as support of their Lévy measure, end a singular Lévy process. These processes are independent. Explicit formulae for the transition function are obtained.     

The Central Limit Problem for Random Vectors with Symmetries

Motivated by the central limit problem for convex bodies, we study normal approximation of linear functionals of high-dimensional random vectors with various types of symmetries. In particular, we obtain results for distributions which are coordinatewise symmetric, uniform in a regular simplex, or spherically symmetric. Our proofs are based on Stein’s method of exchangeable pairs; as far as we know, this approach has not previously been used in convex geometry. The spherically symmetric case is treated by a variation of Stein’s method which is adapted for continuous symmetries. This work was done while at Stanford University.     

A note on spherically symmetric isentropic compressible flows with density-dependent viscosity coefficients

In this note, by constructing suitable approximate solutions, we prove the existence of global weak solutions to the compressible Navier–Stokes equations with density-dependent viscosity coefficients in the whole space or exterior domain, when the initial data are spherically symmetric. In particular, we prove the existence of spherically symmetric solutions to the Saint-Venant model for shallow water in the whole space (or exterior domain).     

Symmetry-Breaking Convective Dynamos in Spherical Shells

Summary. The convective dynamo is the generation of a magnetic field by the convective motion of an electrically conducting fluid. We assume a spherical domain and spherically invariant basic equations and boundary conditions. The initial state of rest is then spherically symmetric. A first instability leads to purely convective flows, the pattern of which is selected according to the known classification of O(3) -symmetry-breaking bifurcation theory. A second instability can then lead to the dynamo effect. Computing this instability is now a purely numerical problem, because the convective flow is known only by its numerical approximation. However, since the convective flow can still possess a nontrivial symmetry group G ₀ , this is again a symmetry-breaking bifurcation problem. After having determined numerically the critical linear magnetic modes, we determine the action of G ₀ in the space of these critical modes. Applying methods of equivariant bifurcation theory, we can classify the pattern selection rules in the dynamo bifurcation. We consider various aspect ratios of the spherical fluid domain, corresponding to different convective patterns, and we are able to describe the symmetry and generic properties of the bifurcated magnetic fields.

On Unique Solutions of Multiple-State Optimal Design Problems on an Annulus

We study the uniqueness and explicit derivation of the relaxed optimal solutions, corresponding to the minimization of weighted sum of potential energies for a mixture of two isotropic conductive materials on an annulus. Recently, it has been shown by Burazin and Vrdoljak that even for multiple-state problems, if the domain is spherically symmetric, then the proper relaxation of the problem by the homogenization method is equivalent to a simpler relaxed problem, stated only in terms of local proportions of given materials. This enabled explicit calculation of a solution on a ball, while problems on an annulus appeared to be more tedious. In this paper, we discuss the uniqueness of a solution of this simpler relaxed problem, when the domain is an annulus and we use the necessary and sufficient conditions of optimality to present a method for explicit calculation of the unique solution of this simpler proper relaxation, which is demonstrated on an example.     

Classification of Harmonic Functions in the Exterior of the Unit Ball

We solve the Laplace equation in an exterior infinite spherical domain with nonlinear (quadratic) boundary conditions on the spherical boundary. We linearize the problem and, under the additional assumption that the distinguishing function is spherically symmetric, write the solution by using the formal power series method with recursion of the series coefficients. Applying the Poincaré--Perron theorem, we describe the space of convergent formal power series and calculate its dimension. Estimating the roots of the fourth-degree characteristic polynomial corresponding to the given problem, we also calculate the dimension of the space of functions whose gradient at each point of the sphere is orthogonal to the linear combination of an axially symmetric dipole and a quadrupole. In conclusion, we state several unsolved problems arising in geophysical applications.     

Sequential stability of weak solutions in compressible self‐gravitating fluids and stationary problem

In this paper, we prove the sequential stability of weak solutions over time, in relation to the Navier–Stokes system of compressible self‐gravitating fluids in a three‐dimensional domain. As a byproduct, we show that there exists at least one non‐negative solution to the stationary problem in any bounded domain with a given mass for the adiabatic constant γ > 3 ∕ 2. In particular, for the spherically symmetric case, these conclusions still hold for γ > 4 ∕ 3 or γ = 4 ∕ 3 with a small mass. Copyright © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

On the best Sobolev trace constant and extremals in domains with holes

We study the dependence on the subset A⊂Ω of the Sobolev trace constant for functions defined in a bounded domain Ω that vanish in the subset A. First we find that there exists an optimal subset that makes the trace constant smaller among all the subsets with prescribed and positive Lebesgue measure. In the case that Ω is a ball we prove that there exists an optimal hole that is spherically symmetric. In the case p=2 we prove that every optimal hole is spherically symmetric. Then, we study the behavior of the best constant when the hole is allowed to have zero Lebesgue measure. We show that this constant depends continuously on the subset and we discuss when it is equal to the Sobolev trace constant without the vanishing restriction.     

A proof of Price’s law for the collapse of a self-gravitating scalar field

A well-known open problem in general relativity, dating back to 1972, has been to prove Price’s law for an appropriate model of gravitational collapse. This law postulates inverse-power decay rates for the gravitational radiation flux through the event horizon and null infinity with respect to appropriately normalized advanced and retarded time coordinates. It is intimately related both to astrophysical observations of black holes and to the fate of observers who dare cross the event horizon. In this paper, we prove a well-defined (upper bound) formulation of Price’s law for the collapse of a self-gravitating scalar field with spherically symmetric initial data. We also allow the presence of an additional gravitationally coupled Maxwell field. Our results are obtained by a new mathematical technique for understanding the long-time behavior of large data solutions to the resulting coupled non-linear hyperbolic system of p.d.e.’s in 2 independent variables. The technique is based on the interaction of the conformal geometry, the celebrated red-shift effect, and local energy conservation; we feel it may be relevant for the problem of non-linear stability of the Kerr solution. When combined with previous work of the first author concerning the internal structure of charged black holes, which had assumed the validity of Price’s law, our results can be applied to the strong cosmic censorship conjecture for the Einstein-Maxwell-real scalar field system with complete spacelike asymptotically flat spherically symmetric initial data. Under Christodoulou’s C⁰-formulation, the conjecture is proven to be false.     

Identifying an unknown source term in a spherically symmetric parabolic equation

The aim of this work is to solve the inverse problem of determining an unknown source term in a spherically symmetric parabolic equation. The problem is ill-posed: the solution (if it exists) does not depend continuously on the final data. A spectral method is applied to formulate a regularized solution, and a Hölder type estimate of the error between the approximate solution and the exact solution is obtained with a suitable choice of regularization parameter.

A BLOW-UP CRITERION OF SPHERICALLY SYMMETRIC STRONG SOLUTIONS TO 3D COMPRESSIBLE NAVIER-STOKES EQUATIONS WITH FREE BOUNDARY

In this article, we consider the free boundary value problem of 3D isentropic compressible Navier-Stokes equations. A blow-up criterion in terms of the maximum norm of gradients of velocity is obtained for the spherically symmetric strong solution in terms of the regularity estimates near the symmetric center and the free boundary respectively.
