Nonlocal problems for the equations of Kelvin-Voight fluids and their ε-approximations

In this paper, we study some nonlocal problems for the Kelvin-Voight equations (1) and the penalized Kelvin-Voight equations (2): the first and second initial boundary-value problems and the first and second time periodic boundary problems. We prove that these problems have global smooth solutions of the classW _∞ ¹ (?⁺;W ₂ ^2+k (Ω)),k=1,2,...;Ω??³. Bibliography: 25 titles.

Time-periodic solutions of the Einstein’s field equations II: geometric singularities

In this paper, we construct several kinds of new time-periodic solutions of the vacuum Einstein’s field equations whose Riemann curvature tensors vanish, keep finite or take the infinity at some points in these space-times, respectively. The singularities of these new time-periodic solutions are investigated and some new physical phenomena are discovered.     

Time-periodic solutions of the Einstein’s field equations Ⅲ:physical singularities

In this paper we construct a new time-periodic solution of the vacuum Einstein’s field equations, this solution possesses physical singularities, i.e., the norm of the solution’s Riemann curvature tensor takes the infinity at some points. We show that this solution is intrinsically time-periodic and describes a time-periodic universe with the time-periodic physical singularity. By calculating the Weyl scalars of this solution, we investigate new physical phenomena and analyze new singularities for this univ...     

Decay of the L∞-norm of solutions of Navier-Stokes equations in unbounded domains

We show that for nn? 4 the L_∞-norm of weak solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations on ?ⁿ with generalized energy inequality decays like $\parallel u(t, \cdot )\parallel _\infty = O(t^{ - ({{n + 1)} \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {{n + 1)} 2}} \right. \kern-0em} 2}} ),if(1 + | \cdot |)|u(0, \cdot )| \in L_1 $ and $$\int_{\mathbb{R}^n } {u(0,x)} dx = 0$$ . The same holds for strong solutions in all dimensions, if additionally u(0, ·) ε L_p p >n.     

Structure of multiple solutions for nonlinear differential equations

Based on the eigensystem {λj,φj}of -Δ, the multiple solutions for nonlinear problem Δu f(u) =0 in Ω, u=0 on Ω are approximated. A new search-extension method (SEM), which consists of three steps in three level subspaces, is proposed. Numerical simulations for several typical nonlinear cases, i.e. f(u) = u~3,u~2(u-p),u~2(u~2 -p),

Propagation of singularities for solutions of Hamilton–Jacobi equations

We consider the viscosity solution of the Cauchy problem for a class of Hamilton–Jacobi equations and we show that the points of the C¹$C^1$ singular support of such a function propagate along the generalized characteristics for all the times.     

Weyl formula for the negative dissipative eigenvalues of Maxwell’s equations

Let \(V(t) = e^{tG_b},\, t \ge 0,\) be the semigroup generated by Maxwell’s equations in an exterior domain \(\Omega \subset {\mathbb R}^3\) with dissipative boundary condition \(E_{tan}- \gamma (x) (\nu \wedge B_{tan}) = 0, \gamma (x) > 0, \forall x \in \Gamma = \partial \Omega .\) We study the case when \(\Omega = \{x \in {\mathbb R}^3:\, |x| > 1\}\) and \(\gamma \ne 1\) is a constant. We establish a Weyl formula for the counting function of the negative real eigenvalues of \(G_b.\)     

Stationary solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations in the spaces L p (ℝ n )

We study the existence and regularity of solutions of the stationary Navier-Stokes system in the spaces L _p (? ⁿ ). The use of the theory of multipliers of the Fourier transform permits one to single out a class of spaces in which there exists a unique “small” solution. We study the regularity of solutions in these spaces without the smallness assumption.     

Existence and concentration behavior of sign-changing solutions for quasilinear Schr?dinger equations equations

We consider the quasilinear Schrdinger equations of the form-ε~2?u + V(x)u- ε~2?(u2)u = g(u), x ∈ R~N,where ε 0 is a small parameter, the nonlinearity g(u) ∈ C~1(R) is an odd function with subcritical growth and V(x) is a positive Hlder continuous function which is bounded from below, away from zero, and infΛV(x) inf ?ΛV(x) for some open bounded subset Λ of RN. We prove that there is an ε0 0 such that for all ε∈(0, ε0],the above mentioned problem possesses a sign-changing solution uε which exhibits concentration profile around the local minimum point of V(x) as ε→ 0~+.     

New extension phenomena for solutions of tangential Cauchy–Riemann equations

In our recent work, we showed that C^∞ CR-diffeomorphisms of real-analytic Levi-nonflat hypersurfaces in ?² are not analytic in general. This result raised again the question on the nature of CR-maps of a real-analytic hypersurfaces.

In this paper, we give a complete picture of what CR-maps actually are. First, we discover an analytic continuation phenomenon for CR-diffeomorphisms which we call the sectorial analyticity property. It appears to be the optimal regularity property for CR-diffeomorphisms in general. We emphasize that such type of extension never appeared previously in the literature. Second, we introduce the class of Fuchsian type hypersurfaces and prove that (infinitesimal generators of) CR-automorphisms of a Fuchsian type hypersurface are still analytic. In particular, this solves a problem formulated earlier by Shafikov and the first author.

Finally, we prove a regularity result for formal CR-automorphisms of Fuchsian type hypersurfaces.     

Global estimates of fundamental solutions for higher-order Schr?dinger equations

In this paper we first establish global pointwise time-space estimates of the fundamental solution for Schr?dinger equations, where the symbol of the spatial operator is a real non-degenerate elliptic polynomial. Then we use such estimates to establish related L ^p ?CL ^q estimates on the Schr?dinger solution. These estimates extend known results from the literature and are sharp. This result was lately already generalized to a degenerate case (cf. [4]).     

Minimax solutions of Hamilton–Jacobi functional equations for neutral-type systems

A functional Hamilton–Jacobi equation with covariant derivatives which corresponds to neutral-type dynamical systems is obtained. The definition of a minimax solution of this equation is given. Conditions under which such a solution exists and is unique and well defined are found.     

Nonsmooth exclusion test for finding all solutions of nonlinear equations

A new approach is proposed for finding all real solutions of systems of nonlinear equations with bound constraints. The zero finding problem is converted to a global optimization problem whose global minima with zero objective value, if any, correspond to all solutions of the original problem. A branch-and-bound algorithm is used with McCormick’s nonsmooth convex relaxations to generate lower bounds. An inclusion relation between the solution set of the relaxed problem and that of the original nonconvex problem is established which motivates a method to generate automatically, starting points for a local Newton-type method. A damped-Newton method with natural level functions employing the restrictive monotonicity test is employed to find solutions robustly and rapidly. Due to the special structure of the objective function, the solution of the convex lower bounding problem yields a nonsmooth root exclusion test which is found to perform better than earlier interval-analysis based exclusion tests. Both the componentwise Krawczyk operator and interval-Newton operator with Gauss-Seidel based root inclusion and exclusion tests are also embedded in the proposed algorithm to refine the variable bounds for efficient fathoming of the search space. The performance of the algorithm on a variety of test problems from the literature is presented, and for most of them, the first solution is found at the first iteration of the algorithm due to the good starting point generation.     

Existence of periodic and subharmonic solutions for second-order superlinear difference equations

By critical point theory, a new approach is provided to study the existence and multiplicity results of periodic and subharmonic solutions for difference equations. For secord-order difference equations△2xn-1+f(n,xn)=0some new results are obtained for the above problems when f(t, z) has superlinear growth at zero and at infinityin z.
