The variable and their derivatives in the governing equations are represented by Haar function and their integral. The first transform the spectral coefficients into the nodal variable values. The second, solve the obtained system of algebraic equation. The efficiency of the method is demonstrated by four numerical examples.

On the approximate solution of integro-differential equations arising in oscillating magnetic fields

In this work, we propose the Shannon wavelets approximation for the numerical solution of a class of integro-differential equations which describe the charged particle motion for certain configurations of oscillating magnetic fields. We show that using the Galerkin method and the connection coefficients of the Shannon wavelets, the problem is transformed to an infinite algebraic system, which can be solved by fixing a finite scale of approximation. The error analysis of the method is also investigated. Finally, some numerical experiments are reported to illustrate the accuracy and applicability of the method.     

An efficient numerical approximation for the linear class of Fredholm integro-differential equations based on Cattani’s method

This paper provides with a generalization of the work by Cattani (Math. Probl. Eng. (2008) 1–24), who has introduced the connection coefficients of the Shannon wavelets. We apply the Shannon wavelets approximation based on Cattani’s connection coefficients together the collocation points for solving the linear Fredholm integro-differential equations. Finally, numerical results are included to demonstrate the validity and applicability of the method and some comparisons are made with existing results.     

Operator-Like Wavelet Bases of L_{2}(\mathbb{R}^{d})

The connection between derivative operators and wavelets is well known. Here we generalize the concept by constructing multiresolution approximations and wavelet basis functions that act like Fourier multiplier operators. This construction follows from a stochastic model: signals are tempered distributions such that the application of a whitening (differential) operator results in a realization of a sparse white noise. Using wavelets constructed from these operators, the sparsity of the white noise can be inherited by the wavelet coefficients. In this paper, we specify such wavelets in full generality and determine their properties in terms of the underlying operator.     

The method of cauchy problem for solving a nonlinear eigenvalue transmission problem for tm waves propagating in a layer with arbitrary nonlinearity

The problem of plane monochromatic TM waves propagating in a layer with an arbitrary nonlinearity is considered. The layer is placed between two semi-infinite media. Surface waves propagating along the material interface are sought. The physical problem is reduced to solving a nonlinear eigenvalue transmission problem for a system of two ordinary differential equations. A theorem on the existence and localization of at least one eigenvalue is proven. On the basis of this theorem, a method for finding approximate eigenvalues of the considered problem is proposed. Numerical results for Kerr and saturation nonlinearities are presented as examples.     

Multiparameter spectral problem for some weakly coupled systems of Hamiltonian equations

We consider a multiparameter spectral problem for a weakly coupled system of ordinary differential equations in which every equation is Hamiltonian and contains two unknown functions. Using the notion of the number of an eigenvalue for a problem with one such equation, we give a statement of the problem of finding the desired eigentuple of values for the problem with several equations. We prove the existence and uniqueness of a solution of this problem and suggest and study a numerical solution method.     

On certain properties of a nonlinear eigenvalue problem for Hamiltonian systems of ordinary differential equations

Properties of the eigenvalues are examined in a nonlinear self-adjoint eigenvalue problem for linear Hamiltonian systems of ordinary differential equations. In particular, it is proved that, under certain assumptions, every eigenvalue is isolated and there exists an eigenvalue with any prescribed index.     

Differential quadrature method for space-fractional diffusion equations on 2D irregular domains

In mathematical physics, the space-fractional diffusion equations are of particular interest in the studies of physical phenomena modelled by Lévy processes, which are sometimes called super-diffusion equations. In this article, we develop the differential quadrature (DQ) methods for solving the 2D space-fractional diffusion equations on irregular domains. The methods in presence reduce the original equation into a set of ordinary differential equations (ODEs) by introducing valid DQ formulations to fractional directional derivatives based on the functional values at scattered nodal points on problem domain. The required weighted coefficients are calculated by using radial basis functions (RBFs) as trial functions, and the resultant ODEs are discretized by the Crank-Nicolson scheme. The main advantages of our methods lie in their flexibility and applicability to arbitrary domains. A series of illustrated examples are finally provided to support these points.     

Inverse spectral problem for differential operator pencils on noncompact spatial networks

We study boundary value problems on noncompact cycle-free graphs (i.e., trees) for second-order ordinary differential equations with a nonlinear dependence on the spectral parameter. We establish properties of the spectrum and analyze the inverse problem of reconstructing the coefficients of a differential equation on the basis of the so-called Weyl functions. For this inverse problem, we prove a uniqueness theorem and obtain a procedure for constructing the solution by the method of spectral mapping.     

On the index of the boundary value problem for a homogeneous Hamiltonian system of differential equations

The index of the homogeneous self-adjoint boundary value problem for the Hamiltonian systems of ordinary differential equations is introduced. It is assumed that the system has a nontrivial solution. The relationship between the index of an eigenvalue of the nonlinear eigenvalue problem and the index of the corresponding homogeneous problem is established. Properties of the index of the problem and those of the eigenvalue are examined.     

Limit‐point/limit‐circle classification for Hain–Lüst type equations

Hain–Lüst equations appear in magnetohydrodynamics. They are Sturm–Liouville equations with coefficients depending rationally on the eigenvalue parameter. In this paper such equations are connected with a 2 × 2 system of differential equations, where the dependence on the eigenvalue parameter is linear. By means of this connection Weyl's fundamental limit‐point/limit‐circle classification is extended to a general setting of Hain–Lüst‐type equations.     

Equality of multiplicities of a Sturm-Liouville eigenvalue

We give a new and unified proof of the fact that for any eigenvalue of a self-adjoint Sturm-Liouville problem with limit-circle end points, its analytic and geometric multiplicities are equal. This proof is geometric in nature and can be generalized to the case of high-order differential equations.     

On the general nonlinear self-adjoint eigenvalue problem for systems of ordinary differential equations with singularities

A nonlinear self-adjoint eigenvalue problem for the general linear system of ordinary differential equations is examined on an unbounded interval. A method is proposed for the approximate reduction of this problem to the corresponding problem on a finite interval. Under the assumption that the initial data are monotone functions of the spectral parameter, a method is given for determining the number of eigenvalues lying on a prescribed interval of this parameter. No direct calculation of eigenvalues is required in this method.     

Numerical Solution of Systems of Loaded Ordinary Differential Equations with Multipoint Conditions

A system of loaded ordinary differential equations with multipoint conditions is considered. The problem under study is reduced to an equivalent boundary value problem for a system of ordinary differential equations with parameters. A system of linear algebraic equations for the parameters is constructed using the matrices of the loaded terms and the multipoint condition. The conditions for the unique solvability and well-posedness of the original problem are established in terms of the matrix made up of the coefficients of the system of linear algebraic equations. The coefficients and the righthand side of the constructed system are determined by solving Cauchy problems for linear ordinary differential equations. The solutions of the system are found in terms of the values of the desired function at the initial points of subintervals. The parametrization method is numerically implemented using the fourth-order accurate Runge–Kutta method as applied to the Cauchy problems for ordinary differential equations. The performance of the constructed numerical algorithms is illustrated by examples.     

How to solve the polynomial ordinary differential equations

This paper discussed how to solve the polynomial ordinary differential equations. At first, we construct the theory of the linear equations about the unknown one variable functions with constant coefficients. Secondly, we use this theory to convert the polynomial ordinary differential equations into the simultaneous first order linear ordinary differential equations with constant coefficients and quadratic equations. Thirdly, we work out the general solution of the polynomial ordinary differential equations which is no longer concerned with the differential. Finally, we discuss the necessary and sufficient condition of the existence of the solution.     

Spectral Analysis for Linear Pencils N — λP of Ordinary Differential Operators

Boundary eigenvalue problems for linear pencils N — λ of two ordinary differential operators are studied where P is of lower order than N. In a suitable scale of subspaces of Sobolev spaces and spaces of continuously differentiable functions results on minimality and basis properties of the eigenfunctions and associated functions are proved, including explicit formulas for the Fourier coefficients. As an application the Orr - Sommerfeld equation is considered.     

Correlation of constraint conditions in Koiter's initial postbuckling analysis and in the consistently linearized eigenvalue problem

Koiter's postbuckling analysis and the consistently linearized eigenvalue problem are used in sensitivity analysis of the postbuckling behavior of elastic structures. A classification of structures can be made on basis of the eigenvector of the eigenvalue problem. This classification distinguishes between structures with different quality of conversion from imperfections sensitivity into imperfection insensitivity, which is expressed in terms of the coefficients of Koiter's initial postbuckling analysis. Mathematically, this connection is expressed in the correlation of constraint equations. (© 2010 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)

Several examples are included to illustrate the efficiency and accuracy of the proposed method.
