Some regularity results to the generalized Emden–Fowler equation with irregular data

We deal with the generalized Emden–Fowler equation f^″(x) + g(x)f^?θ(x) = 0, where belongs to L^p((a,b)). We obtain a priori estimates for the solutions, as well as information about their asymptotic behavior near boundary points. As a tool, we derive new nonlinear variants of first‐order and second‐order Poincaré inequalities, which are based on strongly nonlinear multiplicative inequalities obtained recently by first author and Peszek.

A parametrization formula for the solution set of a completely indeterminate generalized matricial Carathéodory–Fejér problem is given. The unique A–normalized γ–generating quadruple is constructed by a limit procedure. Moreover, its blocks are expressed as Gramians.     

Exponential finite-difference method applied to Korteweg–de Vries equation for small times

The Korteweg–de Vries equation is numerically solved by using the exponential finite-difference technique. The accuracy of computed solutions is examined by comparison with other numerical and analytical solutions using two examples. The close results agreement between the current results and the exact solutions confirms that the proposed finite-difference procedure is an effective technique for the solution of the Korteweg–de Vries equation at the small times.     

Exact solutions with compact and noncompact structures for the one-dimensional generalized Benjamin–Bona–Mahony equation

This paper is devoted to analyzing the physical structures of nonlinear dispersive variants of the Benjamin–Bona–Mahony equation. It is found that these generalized forms give rise to compactons solutions: solitons with the absence of infinite tails, solitons: nonlinear localized waves of infinite support, solitary patterns solutions having infinite slopes or cusps, and plane periodic solutions. It is also found that the qualitative change in the physical structure of solutions depends strongly on whether the exponents of the wave function u(x, t) whether it is positive or negative, and on the speed c of the traveling wave as well.     

Vortex analysis of the periodic Ginzburg–Landau model

We study the vortices of energy minimizers in the London limit for the Ginzburg–Landau model with periodic boundary conditions. For applied fields well below the second critical field we are able to describe the location and number of vortices. Many of the results presented appeared in [H. Aydi, Doctoral Dissertation, Université Paris-XII, 2004], others are new.

On a problem of Duke–Erdős–Rödl on cycle-connected subgraphs

In this short note, we prove that for β<1/5 every graph G with n vertices and n^2−β edges contains a subgraph G^′ with at least cn^2−2β edges such that every pair of edges in G^′ lie together on a cycle of length at most 8. Moreover edges in G^′ which share a vertex lie together on a cycle of length at most 6. This result is best possible up to the constant factor and settles a conjecture of Duke, Erdős, and Rödl.     

Ergodicity of stochastic 2D Navier–Stokes equation with Lévy noise

In this paper we deal with the 2D Navier-Stokes equation perturbed by a Lévy noise force whose white noise part is non-degenerate and that the intensity measure of Poisson measure is σ-finite. Existence and uniqueness of invariant measure for this equation is obtained, two main properties of the Markov semigroup associated with this equation are proved. In other words, strong Feller property and irreducibility hold in the same space.

In this paper we show that the Bishop–Phelps–Bollobás theorem fails for bilinear forms on l₁×l₁, while it holds for linear operators from l₁ to l_∞.     

The weak type inequality for the maximal operator of the Marcinkiewicz–Fejér means of the two-dimensional Walsh–Fourier series

The main aim of this paper is to prove that the maximal operator σ^* of the Marcinkiewicz–Fejér means of the two-dimensional Walsh–Fourier series is bounded from the Hardy space H_2/3 to the space weak-L_2/3.     

On the Domain of Divergence of Hermite–Fejér Interpolating Polynomials

Recently, the study of the behavior of the Hermite–Fejér interpolants in the complex plane was initiated by L. Brutman and I. Gopengauz (1999, Constr. Approx.15, 611–617). It was shown that, for a broad class of interpolatory matrices on [−1, 1], the sequence of polynomials induced by Hermite–Fejér interpolation to f(z)≡z diverges everywhere in the complex plane outside the interval of interpolation [−1, 1]. In this note we amplify this result and prove that the divergence phenomenon takes place without any restriction on the interpolatory matrices.     

New exact solutions for the classical Drinfel’d–Sokolov–Wilson equation

In this paper, we investigate the classical Drinfel’d–Sokolov–Wilson equation (DSWE)

where p, q, r, s are some nonzero parameters. Some explicit expressions of solutions for the equation are obtained by using the bifurcation method and qualitative theory of dynamical systems. These solutions contain solitary wave solutions, blow-up solutions, periodic solutions, periodic blow-up solutions and kink-shaped solutions. Some previous results are extended.     

Explicit exact solutions for the (2 + 1)-dimensional Konopelchenko–Dubrovsky equation

In this paper, we construct new explicit exact solutions for the coupled the (2 + 1)-dimensional Konopelchenko–Dubrovsky equation (KD equation) by using a improved mapping approach and variable separation method. By means of the method, new types of variable-separation solutions (including solitary wave solutions, periodic wave solutions and rational function solutions) for the KD system are successfully obtained. The improved mapping approach and variable separation method can be applied to other higher-dimensional coupled nonlinear evolution equations.     

B-splines and Hermite–Padé approximants to the exponential function

This paper is the continuation of a work initiated in [P. Sablonnière, An algorithm for the computation of Hermite–Padé approximations to the exponential function: divided differences and Hermite–Padé forms. Numer. Algorithms 33 (2003) 443–452] about the computation of Hermite–Padé forms (HPF) and associated Hermite–Padé approximants (HPA) to the exponential function. We present an alternative algorithm for their computation, based on the representation of HPF in terms of integral remainders with B-splines as Peano kernels. Using the good properties of discrete B-splines, this algorithm gives rise to a great variety of representations of HPF of higher orders in terms of HPF of lower orders, and in particular of classical Padé forms. We give some examples illustrating this algorithm, in particular, another way of constructing quadratic HPF already described by different authors. Finally, we briefly study a family of cubic HPF.     

Exact solutions of Calgero–Bogoyavlenskii–Schiff equation using the singular manifold method after Lie reductions

Calgero–Bogoyavlenskii–Schiff (CBS) equation is analytically solved through two successive reductions into an ordinary differential equation (ODE) through a set of optimal Lie vectors. During the second reduction step, CBS equation is reduced using hidden vectors. The resulting ODE is then analytically solved through the singular manifold method in three steps; First, a Bäcklund truncated series is obtained. Second, this series is inserted into the ODE, and finally, a seminal analysis leads to a Schwarzian differential equation in the eigenfunction φ(η). Solving this differential equation leads to new analytical solutions. Then, through two backward substitution steps, the original dependent variable is recovered. The obtained results are plotted for several Lie hidden vectors and compared with previous work on CBS equation using Lie transformations. Copyright © 2017 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

On the convergence of difference schemes for generalized Benjamin–Bona–Mahony equation

We consider an initial boundary‐value problem for the generalized Benjamin–Bona–Mahony equation. A three‐level conservative difference schemes are studied. The obtained algebraic equations are linear with respect to the values of unknown function for each new level. It is proved that the scheme is convergent with the convergence rate of order k – 1, when the exact solution belongs to the Sobolev space of order . © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

On sharp Burkholder–Rosenthal-type inequalities for infinite-degree U-statistics

In this paper, we present a method that allows one to obtain a number of sharp inequalities for expectations of functions of infinite-degree U-statistics. Using the approach, we prove, in particular, the following result: Let D be the class of functions f :R₊→R₊ such that the function f(x+z)−f(x) is concave in xR₊ for all zR₊. Then the following estimate holds: for all fD and all U-statistics ∑_1i1<<ilnY_i1,…,il(X_i1,…,X_il) with nonnegative kernels Y_i1,…,il :R^l→R₊, 1i_kn; i_r≠i_s, r≠s; k,r,s=1,…,l; l=0,…,m, in independent r.v.'s X₁,…,X_n. Similar inequality holds for sums of decoupled U-statistics. The class D is quite wide and includes all nonnegative twice differentiable functions f such that the function f″(x) is nonincreasing in x>0, and, in particular, the power functions f(x)=x^t, 1<t2; the power functions multiplied by logarithm f(x)= (x+x₀)^t ln(x+x₀), 1<t<2, x₀max(e^{(3t2−6t+2)/(t(t−1)(2−t))},1); and the entropy-type functions f(x)=(x+x₀)ln(x+x₀), x₀1. As an application of the results, we determine the best constants in Burkholder–Rosenthal-type inequalities for sums of U-statistics and prove new decoupling inequalities for those objects. The results obtained in the paper are, to our knowledge, the first known results on the best constants in sharp moment estimates for U-statistics of a general type.     

Existence and estimates of solutions to a singular Dirichlet problem for the Monge–Ampère equation

Given a strictly convex, smooth, and bounded domain Ω in we establish the existence of a negative convex solution in with zero boundary value to the singular Monge–Ampère equation det(D²u)=p(x)g(−u). An associated Dirichlet problem will be employed to provide a necessary and sufficient condition for the solvability of the singular boundary value problem. Estimates of solutions will also be given and regularity of solutions will be deduced from the estimates.
