Integral representations of nonnegative solutions for parabolic equations and elliptic Martin boundaries

We consider nonnegative solutions of a parabolic equation in a cylinder D×(0,T), where D is a noncompact domain of a Riemannian manifold. Under the assumption [IU] (i.e., the associated heat kernel is intrinsically ultracontractive), we establish an integral representation theorem: any nonnegative solution is represented uniquely by an integral on (D×{0})∪(M_∂D×[0,T)), where M_∂D is the Martin boundary of D for the associated elliptic operator. We apply it in a unified way to several concrete examples to explicitly represent nonnegative solutions. We also show that [IU] implies the condition [SP] (i.e., the constant function 1 is a small perturbation of the elliptic operator on D).     

Intrinsic ultracontractivity and small perturbation for one-dimensional generalized diffusion operators

We consider a one-dimensional generalized diffusion operator G on an open interval which is not necessarily bounded. We characterize [SP] (i.e., 1 is a small perturbation of the operator G) in terms of the classification of the boundary points from the view point of diffusion processes and give a sufficient condition for [IU] (i.e., the associated heat kernel is intrinsically ultracontractive).     

Martin Boundaries of Elliptic Skew Products, Semismall Perturbations, and Fundamental Solutions of Parabolic Equations

We consider positive solutions of elliptic partial differential equations on non-compact domains of Riemannian manifolds. We explicitly determine Martin boundaries and Martin kernels for a class of elliptic equations in skew product form by exploiting and developing perturbation theory for elliptic equations and short/long-time estimates for fundamental solutions of parabolic equations.

Lateral boundary differentiability of solutions of parabolic equations in nondivergence form

The lateral boundary differentiability is shown for solutions of parabolic differential equations in nondivergence form under the assumptions that the parabolic boundary satisfies the exterior Dini condition and is punctually C¹$C^1$ differentiable one-sided in t-direction. The classical barrier technique, the maximum principle, the interior Harnack inequality and an iteration procedure are the main analytical tools.     

Blow-up and global solutions for quasilinear parabolic equations with Neumann boundary conditions

Using the upper and lower solution techniques and Hopf's maximum principle, the sufficient conditions for the existence of blow-up positive solution and global positive solution are obtained for a class of quasilinear parabolic equations subject to Neumann boundary conditions. An upper bound for the ‘blow-up time’, an upper estimate of the ‘blow-up rate’, and an upper estimate of the global solution are also specified.

On periodic solutions of nonlinear integral equations modelling infectious disease on measure chain

The modelling of the spread of infectious disease is carried out for time t on a measure chain T. Our approach unifies the continuous case and the discrete case . The model is described by the integral equation

where x(t) represents the proportion of the population infected at time t, f(t,x(t)) denotes the proportion of the population newly infected per unit time, and τ is the length of time an individual remains infectious. Using the measure chain calculus, we shall develop criteria for the existence of a nontrivial and nonnegative periodic solution for the modelling equation. The criteria can be implemented numerically, for this we shall give an algorithm as well as illustrative examples.     

Cubic superconvergent finite volume element method for one-dimensional elliptic and parabolic equations

In this paper, a cubic superconvergent finite volume element method based on optimal stress points is presented for one-dimensional elliptic and parabolic equations. For elliptic problem, it is proved that the method has optimal third order accuracy with respect to H¹ norm and fourth order accuracy with respect to L² norm. We also obtain that the scheme has fourth order superconvergence for derivatives at optimal stress points. For parabolic problem, the scheme is given and error estimate is obtained with respect to L² norm. Finally, numerical examples are provided to show the effectiveness of the method.     

Oscillation of the solutions of parabolic equations with nonlinear neutral terms

New method based on the HPM and RKHSM for solving forced Duffing equations with integral boundary conditions

This paper investigates the forced Duffing equation with integral boundary conditions. Its approximate solution is developed by combining the homotopy perturbation method (HPM) and the reproducing kernel Hilbert space method (RKHSM). HPM is based on the use of the traditional perturbation method and the homotopy technique. The HPM can reduce nonlinear problems to some linear problems and generate a rapid convergent series solution in most cases. RKHSM is also an analytical technique, which can solve powerfully linear boundary value problems. Therefore, the forced Duffing equation with integral boundary conditions can be solved using advantages of these two methods. Two numerical examples are presented to illustrate the strength of the method.

Approximate solutions of Fredholm integral equations of the second kind

This note is concerned with the problem of determining approximate solutions of Fredholm integral equations of the second kind. Approximating the solution of a given integral equation by means of a polynomial, an over-determined system of linear algebraic equations is obtained involving the unknown coefficients, which is finally solved by using the least-squares method. Several examples are examined in detail.

We establish conditions on the function p that are necessary and sufficient for the existence of positive solutions, bounded and unbounded, of the given equation.
