Numerical solutions based on Chebyshev collocation method for singularly perturbed delay parabolic PDEs

The main purpose of this work is to provide a numerical approach for the delay partial differential equations based on a spectral collocation approach. In this research, a rigorous error analysis for the proposed method is provided. The effectiveness of this approach is illustrated by numerical experiments on two delay partial differential equations. Copyright © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Delay-independent stability of Euler method for nonlinear one-dimensional diffusion equation with constant delay

This paper is concerned with delay-independent asymptotic stability of a numerical process that arises after discretization of a nonlinear one-dimensional diffusion equation with a constant delay by the Euler method. Explicit sufficient and necessary conditions for the Euler method to be asymptotically stable for all delays are derived. An additional restriction on spatial stepsize is required to preserve the asymptotic stability due to the presence of the delay. A numerical experiment is implemented to confirm the results.      

Special symmetric periodic solutions of differential systems with distributed delay

We discuss the existence of periodic solutions to a system of differential equations with distributed delay which shows a certain type of symmetry. For this, such solutions are related to the solutions of a system of second-order ordinary differential equations.     

Difference equations with random delay

We present a first step towards a general theory of difference and differential equations incorporating unbounded random delays. The main technical tool relies on recent work of Lian and Lu, which generalizes the multiplicative ergodic theorem by Oseledets to Banach spaces.     

Periodic solutions in periodic state-dependent delay equations and population models

Sufficient and realistic conditions are obtained for the existence of positive periodic solutions in periodic equations with state-dependent delay. The method involves the application of the coincidence degree theorem and estimations of uniform upper bounds on solutions. Applications of these results to some population models are presented. These application results indicate that seasonal effects on population models often lead to synchronous solutions. In addition, we may conclude that when both seasonality and time delay are present and deserve consideration, the seasonality is often the generating force for the often observed oscillatory behavior in population densities.

Numerical solutions of stochastic differential delay equations under the generalized Khasminskii-type conditions

The classical existence-and-uniqueness theorem of the solution to a stochastic differential delay equation (SDDE) requires the local Lipschitz condition and the linear growth condition (see e.g. [11], [12] and [20]). The numerical solutions under these conditions have also been discussed intensively (see e.g. [4], [10], [13], [16], [17], [18], [21], [22] and [24]). Recently, Mao and Rassias [14] and [15] established the generalized Khasminskii-type existence-and-uniqueness theorems for SDDEs, where the linear growth condition is no longer imposed. These generalized Khasminskii-type theorems cover a wide class of highly nonlinear SDDEs but these nonlinear SDDEs do not have explicit solutions, whence numerical solutions are required in practice. However, there is so far little numerical theory on SDDEs under these generalized Khasminskii-type conditions. The key aim of this paper is to close this gap.     

Existence of mild solutions of some semilinear neutral fractional functional evolution equations with infinite delay

We deal in this paper with the mild solution for fractional semilinear differential equations with infinite delay: with T>0 and 0<α<1. We prove the existence (and uniqueness) of solutions, assuming that A generates an α-resolvent family (S_α(t))_t?0 on a complex Banach space X by means of classical fixed points methods.     

Numerical solutions of random mean square Fisher-KPP models with advection

This paper deals with the construction of numerical stable solutions of random mean square Fisher-Kolmogorov-Petrosky-Piskunov (Fisher-KPP) models with advection. The construction of the numerical scheme is performed in two stages. Firstly, a semidiscretization technique transforms the original continuous problem into a nonlinear inhomogeneous system of random differential equations. Then, by extending to the random framework, the ideas of the exponential time differencing method, a full vector discretization of the problem addresses to a random vector difference scheme. A sample approach of the random vector difference scheme, the use of properties of Metzler matrices and the logarithmic norm allow the proof of stability of the numerical solutions in the mean square sense. In spite of the computational complexity, the results are illustrated by comparing the results with a test problem where the exact solution is known.     

An analytic approximation of solutions of stochastic differential delay equations with Markovian switching

In this paper, we are concerned with the stochastic differential delay equations with Markovian switching (SDDEwMSs). As stochastic differential equations with Markovian switching (SDEwMSs), most SDDEwMSs cannot be solved explicitly. Therefore, numerical solutions, such as EM method, stochastic Theta method, Split-Step Backward Euler method and Caratheodory’s approximations, have become an important issue in the study of SDDEwMSs. The key contribution of this paper is to investigate the strong convergence between the true solutions and the numerical solutions to SDDEwMSs in the sense of the L^p-norm when the drift and diffusion coefficients are Taylor approximations.     

On an approach to the analysis of oscillatory solutions of nonlinear delay difference equations

The objective of this article is to establish an oscillation criterion for all solutions of nonlinear difference equation where $r(\eta )$ is a sequence of nonnegative real numbers and $\phi (\eta )$ is not necessarily monotone sequence. Also, an example is presented to illustrate the significance of the main result.     

A non-local PDE model for population dynamics with state-selective delay: Local theory and global attractors

We propose a non-local PDE model for the evolution of a single species population that involves delayed feedback, where the delay such as the maturation time in the delayed birth rate, is selective and the selection depends on the status of the system. This delay selection, in contrast with the usual state-dependent delay widely used in ordinary delay differential equation, ensures the Lipschitz continuity of the nonlinear functional in the classical phase space. We also develop the local theory, and the existence and upper semi-continuity of the global attractor with respect to parameters.     

Numerical method for a singularly perturbed convection-diffusion problem with delay

This paper deals with the singularly perturbed boundary value problem for a linear second-order delay differential equation. For the numerical solution of this problem, we use an exponentially fitted difference scheme on a uniform mesh which is accomplished by the method of integral identities with the use of exponential basis functions and interpolating quadrature rules with weight and remainder term in integral form. It is shown that one gets first order convergence in the discrete maximum norm, independently of the perturbation parameter. Numerical results are presented which illustrate the theoretical results.     

Monotone iterations for numerical solutions of reaction-diffusion-convection equations with time delay

In this article we use the monotone method for the computation of numerical solutions of a nonlinear reaction-diffusion-convection problem with time delay. Three monotone iteration processes for a suitably formulated finite-difference system of the problem are presented. It is shown that the sequence of iteration from each of these iterative schemes converges from either above or below to a unique solution of the finite-difference system without any monotone condition on the nonlinear reaction function. An analytical comparison result among the three processes of iterations is given. Also given is the application of the iterative schemes to some model problems in population dynamics, including numerical results of a model problem with known analytical solution. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
