Existence results for semilinear differential equations with nonlocal and impulsive conditions

This paper is concerned with the existence for impulsive semilinear differential equations with nonlocal conditions. Using the techniques of approximate solutions and fixed point, existence results are obtained, for mild solutions, when the impulsive functions are only continuous and the nonlocal item is Lipschitz in the space of piecewise continuous functions, is not Lipschitz and not compact, is continuous in the space of Bochner integrable functions, respectively.

This paper is concerned with the existence for nondensely defined evolution equations with nonlocal conditions. Using the techniques of fixed point theory and approximate solutions, existence results are obtained, for integral solutions, when the nonlocal item is Lipschitz continuous or continuous, respectively. Examples are also given to illustrate our results.     

On the Cauchy Problems of Fractional Evolution Equations with Nonlocal Initial Conditions

In this paper, new criterions which allow us to relax the compactness and Lipschitz continuity on nonlocal item, ensuring the existence and uniqueness of mild solutions for the Cauchy problems of fractional evolution equations with nonlocal initial conditions, are established. The results obtained in this paper essentially extend some existing results in this area. Finally, we present two applications to the abstract results.

Existence and Approximate Controllability of Solutions for an Impulsive Evolution Equation with Nonlocal Conditions in Banach Space

In this article, we study the existence of mild solutions and approximate controllability for non-autonomous impulsive evolution equations with nonlocal conditions in Banach space. The existence of mild solutions and some conditions for approximate controllability of these non-autonomous impulsive evolution equations are given by using the Krasnoselskii''s fixed point theorem, the theory of evolution family and the resolvent operator. In particular,the impulsive functions are supposed to be continuous and the nonlocal item is divided into Lipschitz continuous and completely bounded. An example is given as an application of the results.

In this paper, we study a class of a multivalued perturbations of m-dissipative evolution inclusions with nonlocal initial condition in arbitrary Banach spaces. We prove the existence of solutions when the multivalued right hand side is Lipschitz and admits nonempty closed bounded, but in general case, neither convex nor compact values. Illustrative example is provided.     

Quasilinear hyperbolic stefan problem with nonlocal boundary conditions

Using the method of contracting mappings, we prove, for small values of time, the existence and uniqueness of a generalized Lipschitz solution of a mixed problem with unknown boundaries for a hyperbolic quasilinear system of first-order equations represented in terms of Riemann invariants with nonlocal (nonseparated and integral) boundary conditions.     

NONLOCAL INITIAL PROBLEM FOR NONLINEAR NONAUTONOMOUS DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS IN A BANACH SPACE

The nonlocal initial problem for nonlinear nonautonomous evolution equati-ons in a Banach space is considered. It is assumed that the nonlinearities havethe local Lipschitz properties. 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).     

A nonlinear parabolic equation with a nonlocal boundary term

A nonlinear parabolic problem with a nonlocal boundary condition is studied. We prove the existence of a solution for a monotonically increasing and Lipschitz continuous nonlinearity. The approximation method is based on Rothe’s method. The solution on each time step is obtained by iterations, convergence of which is shown using a fixed-point argument. The space discretization relies on FEM. Theoretical results are supported by numerical experiments.     

Existence of solutions for nonlocal impulsive partial functional integrodifferential equations via fractional operators

In this paper, by using the Leray-Schauder alternative, we have investigated the existence of mild solutions to first-order impulsive partial functional integrodifferential equations with nonlocal conditions in an α-norm. We assume that the linear part generates an analytic compact bounded semigroup, and that the nonlinear part is a Lipschitz continuous function with respect to the fractional power norm of the linear part. An example is also given to illustrate our main results.     

Variational approach to scattering of plane elastic waves by diffraction gratings

The scattering of a time‐harmonic plane elastic wave by a two‐dimensional periodic structure is studied. The grating profile is given by a Lipschitz curve on which the displacement vanishes. Using a variational formulation in a bounded periodic cell involving a nonlocal boundary operator, existence of solutions in quasiperiodic Sobolev spaces is investigated by establishing the Fredholmness of the operator generated by the corresponding sesquilinear form. Moreover, by a Rellich identity, uniqueness is proved under the assumption that the grating profile is given by a Lipschitz graph. The direct scattering problem for transmission gratings is also investigated. In this case, uniqueness is proved except for a discrete set of frequencies.

A nonlinear structured population model: Lipschitz continuity of measure-valued solutions with respect to model ingredients

This paper is devoted to the analysis of measure-valued solutions to a nonlinear structured population model given in the form of a nonlocal first-order hyperbolic problem on R⁺. We show global existence and Lipschitz continuity with respect to the model ingredients. In distinction to previous studies, where the L¹ norm was used, we apply the flat metric, similar to the Wasserstein W₁ distance. We argue that analysis using this metric, in addition to mathematical advantages, is consistent with intuitive understanding of empirical data. Lipschitz continuous dependence with respect to the model coefficients and initial data and the uniqueness of the weak solutions are shown under the assumption on the Lipschitz continuity of the kinetic functions. The proof of this result is based on the duality formula and the Gronwall-type argument.     

Exact null controllability of non-autonomous functional evolution systems with nonlocal conditions

In this article, by using theory of linear evolution system and Schauder fixed point theorem, we establish a sufficient result of exact null controllability for a non-autonomous functional evolution system with nonlocal conditions. In particular, the compactness condition or Lipschitz condition for the function g in the nonlocal conditions appearing in various literatures is not required here. An example is also provided to show an application of the obtained result.

Local limit of nonlocal traffic models: Convergence results and total variation blow-up

Consider a nonlocal conservation law where the flux function depends on the convolution of the solution with a given kernel. In the singular local limit obtained by letting the convolution kernel converge to the Dirac delta one formally recovers a conservation law. However, recent counter-examples show that in general the solutions of the nonlocal equations do not converge to a solution of the conservation law. In this work we focus on nonlocal conservation laws modeling vehicular traffic: in this case, the convolution kernel is anisotropic. We show that, under fairly general assumptions on the (anisotropic) convolution kernel, the nonlocal-to-local limit can be rigorously justified provided the initial datum satisfies a one-sided Lipschitz condition and is bounded away from 0. We also exhibit a counter-example showing that, if the initial datum attains the value 0, then there are severe obstructions to a convergence proof.     

On the existence of traveling waves for delayed reaction-diffusion equations

We study the existence of traveling wave solutions for reaction-diffusion equations with nonlocal delay, where reaction terms are not necessarily monotone. The existence of traveling wave solutions for reaction-diffusion equations with nonlocal delays is obtained by combining upper and lower solutions for associated integral equations and the Schauder fixed point theorem. The smoothness of upper and lower solutions is not required in this paper.     

Degenerate nonlocal Cahn-Hilliard equations: Well-posedness,regularity and local asymptotics

Existence and uniqueness of solutions for nonlocal Cahn-Hilliard equations with degenerate potential is shown. The nonlocality is described by means of a symmetric singular kernel not falling within the framework of any previous existence theory. A convection term is also taken into account. Building upon this novel existence result, we prove convergence of solutions for this class of nonlocal Cahn-Hilliard equations to their local counterparts, as the nonlocal convolution kernels approximate a Dirac delta. Eventually, we show that, under suitable assumptions on the data, the solutions to the nonlocal Cahn-Hilliard equations exhibit further regularity, and the nonlocal-to-local convergence is verified in a stronger topology.     

Exponentially Stable Stationary Solutions for Stochastic Evolution Equations and Their Perturbation

We consider the exponential stability of stochastic evolution equations with Lipschitz continuous non-linearities when zero is not a solution for these equations. We prove the existence of a non-trivial stationary solution which is exponentially stable, where the stationary solution is generated by the composition of a random variable and the Wiener shift. We also construct stationary solutions with the stronger property of attracting bounded sets uniformly. The existence of these stationary solutions follows from the theory of random dynamical systems and their attractors. In addition, we prove some perturbation results and formulate conditions for the existence of stationary solutions for semilinear stochastic partial differential equations with Lipschitz continuous non-linearities.
