非线性电报方程组的3个双周期正解问题

This paper studies existence of at least three positive doubly periodic solutions of a coupled nonlinear telegraph system with doubly periodic boundary conditions. First, by using the Green function and maximum principle, existence of solutions of a nonlinear telegraph system is equivalent to existence of fixed points of an operator. By imposing growth conditions on the nonlinearities, existence of at least three fixed points in cone is obtained by using the Leggett-Williams fixed point theorem to cones in ordered Banach spaces. In other words, there exist at least three positive doubly periodic solutions of nonlinear telegraph system.     

Solvability of a class of second-order quasilinear boundary value problems

The second-order quasilinear boundary value problems are considered when the nonlinear term is singular and the limit growth function at the infinite exists. With the introduction of the height function of the nonlinear term on a bounded set and the consideration of the integration of the height function, the existence of the solution is proven. The existence theorem shows that the problem has a solution if the integration of the limit growth function has an appropriate value.     

A class of singular perturbation solutions to semilinear equations of fourth order

A class of singularly perturbed boundary value problems for semilinear equations of fourth order with two parameters are considered. Under suitable conditions, using the method of lower and upper solutions, the existence and the asymptotic behavior of the solution to the boundary value problem are studied, In the present paper, the solution to the original singularly perturbed problem with two parameters has only one boundary layer.     

Similarity solutions for non-Newtonian power-law fluid flow

The problem of the boundary layer flow of power law non-Newtonian fluids with a novel boundary condition is studied.The existence and uniqueness of the solutions are examined,which are found to depend on the curvature of the solutions for different values of the power law index n.It is established with the aid of the Picard-Lindel¨of theorem that the nonlinear boundary value problem has a unique solution in the global domain for all values of the power law index n but with certain conditions on the curvature of the solutions.This is done after a suitable transformation of the dependent and independent variables.For 0 n 1,the solution has a positive curvature,while for n 1,the solution has a negative or zero curvature on some part of the global domain.Some solutions are presented graphically to illustrate the results and the behaviors of the solutions.     

METHOD OF GREEN＇S FUNCTION OF CORRUGATED SHELLS

By using the fundamental equations of axisymmetric shallow shells of revolution, the nonlinear bending of a shallow corrugated shell with taper under arbitrary load has been investigated. The nonlinear boundary value problem of the corrugated shell was reduced to the nonlinear integral equations by using the method of Green＇s function. To solve the integral equations, expansion method was used to obtain Green＇s function. Then the integral equations were reduced to the form with degenerate core by expanding Green＇s function as series of characteristic function. Therefore, the integral equations become nonlinear algebraic equations. Newton＇ s iterative method was utilized to solve the nonlinear algebraic equations. To guarantee the convergence of the iterative method, deflection at center was taken as control parameter. Corresponding loads were obtained by increasing deflection one by one. As a numerical example,elastic characteristic of shallow corrugated shells with spherical taper was studied.Calculation results show that characteristic of corrugated shells changes remarkably. The snapping instability which is analogous to shallow spherical shells occurs with increasing load if the taper is relatively large. The solution is close to the experimental results.

Exact solution of the nonlinear boundary value problem for the basic equation and boundary condition of circular membrane under central force was obtained by using new simple methods. The existence and uniqueness of the solution were discussed by using of modern immovable point theorems. Although specific problem is treated, the basic principles of the methods can be applied to a considerable variety of nonlinear problems.     

Self-similar singular solution of fast diffusion equation with gradient absorption terms

The self-similar singular solution of the fast diffusion equation with nonlinear gradient absorption terms are studied. By a self-similar transformation, the self-similar solutions satisfy a boundary value problem of nonlinear ordinary differential equation (ODE). Using the shooting arguments, the existence and uniqueness of the solution to the initial data problem of the nonlinear ODE are investigated, and the solutions are classified by the region of the initial data. The necessary and sufficient condition for the existence and uniqueness of self-similar very singular solutions is obtained by investigation of the classification of the solutions. In case of existence, the self-similar singular solution is very singular solution.     

Geometric shapes of the interface surface of bicomponent flows between two concentric rotating cylinders

In this paper, the shape problem of interface of bicomponent flows between two concentric rotating cylinders is investigated. With tensor analysis, the problem is reduced to an energy functional isoperimetric problem when neglecting the effects of the dissipative energy caused by viscosity. We derive the associated Euler-Lagrangian equation, which is a nonlinear elliptic boundary value problem of the second order. Moreover, by considering the effects of the dissipative energy, we propose another total energy functional to characterize the geometric shape of the interface, and obtain the corresponding Euler-Lagrangian equation, which is also a nonlinear elliptic boundary value problem of the second order. Thus, the problem of the geometric shape is converted into a nonlinear boundary value problem of the second order in both cases.     

MHD Falkner-Skan flow of Maxwell fluid by rational Chebyshev collocation method

The magnetohydrodynamics （MHD） Falkner-Skan flow of the Maxwell fluid is studied. Suitable transform reduces the partial differential equation into a nonlinear three order boundary value problem over a semi-infinite interval. An efficient approach based on the rational Chebyshev collocation method is performed to find the solution to the proposed boundary value problem. The rational Chebyshev collocation method is equipped with the orthogonal rational Chebyshev function which solves the problem on the semi-infinite domain without truncating it to a finite domain. The obtained results are presented through the illustrative graphs and tables which demonstrate the affectivity, stability, and convergence of the rational Chebyshev collocation method. To check the accuracy of the obtained results, a numerical method is applied for solving the problem. The variations of various embedded parameters into the problem are examined.     

On the <Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis><Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">s</Emphasis></Superscript> Theory of Hydrostatic Euler Equations

In this paper we study the two-dimensional hydrostatic Euler equations in a periodic channel. We prove the local existence and uniqueness of H ^s solutions under the local Rayleigh condition. This extends Brenier’s (Nonlinearity 12(3):495–512, 1999) existence result by removing an artificial condition and proving uniqueness. In addition, we prove weak–strong uniqueness, mathematical justification of the formal derivation and stability of the hydrostatic Euler equations. These results are based on weighted H ^s a priori estimates, which come from a new type of nonlinear cancellation between velocity and vorticity.     

Solutions for Quasilinear Nonsmooth Evolution Systems in <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis></Superscript>

We prove that nonsmooth quasilinear parabolic systems admit a local solution in L ^p strongly differentiable with respect to time over a bounded three-dimensional polyhedral space domain. The proof rests essentially on new elliptic regularity results for polyhedral Laplace interface problems for anisotropic materials. These results are based on sharp pointwise estimates for Greens function, which are also of independent interest. To treat the nonlinear problem, we then apply a classical theorem of Sobolevskii for abstract parabolic equations and recently obtained resolvent estimates for elliptic operators and interpolation results. As applications we have in mind primarily reaction-diffusion systems. The treatment of such equations in an L ^p context seems to be new and allows (by Gauss theorem) the proper definition of the normal component of currents across the boundary.     

Minimizing Periodic Orbits with Regularizable Collisions in the <Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis>-Body Problem

In the Newtonian n-body problem, there are various subsystems with two degrees of freedom, such as the collinear three-body problem and the isosceles three-body problem. After we determine a normal form of the Lagrangians of these subsystems, we prove the existence of periodic solutions with regularizable collisions for these systems. Our result includes several examples, such as Schubart’s orbit with or without equal masses, among others.     

Inequalities relating to Lp-version of Petty＇s conjectured projection inequality

Petty＇s conjectured projection inequality is a famous open problem in the theory of convex bodies. In this paper, it is shown that an inequality relating to Lp-version of the Petty＇s conjectured projection inequality is developed by using the notions of the Lp-mixed volume and the Lp-dual mixed volume, the relation of the Lp-projection body and the geometric body Г-pK, the Bourgain-Milman inequality and the Lp-Bnsemann-Petty inequality. In addition, for each origin-symmetric convex body, by applying the Jensen inequality and the monotonicity of the geometric body Г-pK, the reverses of Lp-version of the Petty＇s conjectured projection inequality and the Lp-Petty projection inequality are given, respectively.

An existence result for a nonlinear nth-order ordinary random differential equation is proved under the Carathéodory condition. Two existence results for extremal random solutions are also proved in the Carathéodory case and the discontinuous case of the nonlinearity involved in the equations. Our investigations are carried out in the Banach space of continuous real-valued functions on closed bounded intervals of the real line together with the application of a random version of the Leray–Schauder principle.

The paper first proves a characteristic property in FC-spaces. By the use of the connectedness of sets, a parametric type of KKM theorem is then established in noncompact FC-spaces by introducing a linear ordered space. As a consequence, some recent results, such as noncompact minimax inequalities, saddle point theorem, and section theorem, are improved. The results generalize the corresponding results in the literatures.

Weakly R-KKM mappings——intersection theorems and minimax inequalities in topological spaces

In this paper, we introduce the concepts of weakly R-KKM mappings, R-convex and ,R-β-quasiconvex in general topological spaces without any convex structure. Relating to these, we obtain an extension to general topological spaces of Fan's matching theorem, namely that Lemma 1.2 in this paper. On this basis, two intersection theorems are proved in topological spaces. By using intersection theorems, some minimax inequalities of Ky Fan type are also proved in topological spaces. Our results generalize and improve the corresponding results in the literature.
