Steplike contrast structures for a second-order ordinary differential equation with a small parameter multiplying the highest derivative

A boundary value problem is considered for a second-order nonlinear ordinary differential equation with a small parameter multiplying the highest derivative. The limit equation has three solutions, of which two are stable and are separated by the third unstable one. For the original problem, an asymptotic expansion of a solution is studied that undergoes a jump from one stable root of the limit equation to the other in the neighborhood of a certain point. A uniform asymptotic approximation of this solution is constructed up to an arbitrary power of the small parameter.     

Asymptotic stability of ground states in 3D nonlinear Schrödinger equation including subcritical cases

We consider a class of nonlinear Schrödinger equation in three space dimensions with an attractive potential. The nonlinearity is local but rather general encompassing for the first time both subcritical and supercritical (in L²) nonlinearities. We study the asymptotic stability of the nonlinear bound states, i.e. periodic in time localized in space solutions. Our result shows that all solutions with small initial data, converge to a nonlinear bound state. Therefore, the nonlinear bound states are asymptotically stable. The proof hinges on dispersive estimates that we obtain for the time dependent, Hamiltonian, linearized dynamics around a careful chosen one parameter family of bound states that “shadows” the nonlinear evolution of the system. Due to the generality of the methods we develop we expect them to extend to the case of perturbations of large bound states and to other nonlinear dispersive wave type equations.     

Regular and Irregular Solutions in the Problem of Dislocations in Solids

For an initial differential equation with deviations of the spatial variable, we consider asymptotic solutions with respect to the residual. All solutions are naturally divided into classes depending regularly and irregularly on the problem parameters. In different regions in a small neighborhood of the zero equilibrium state of the phase space, we construct special nonlinear distribution equations and systems of equations depending on continuous families of certain parameters. In particular, we show that solutions of the initial spatially one-dimensional equation can be described using solutions of special equations and systems of Schr¨odinger-type equations in a spatially two-dimensional argument range.     

Asymptotic behavior and decay rate estimates for a class of semilinear evolution equations of mixed order

In this article we present a unified approach to study the asymptotic behavior and the decay rate to a steady state of bounded weak solutions of nonlinear, gradient-like evolution equations of mixed first and second order. The proof of convergence is based on the Lojasiewicz-Simon inequality, the construction of an appropriate Lyapunov functional, and some differential inequalities. Applications are given to nonautonomous semilinear wave and heat equations with dissipative, dynamical boundary conditions, a nonlinear hyperbolic-parabolic partial differential equation, a damped wave equation and some coupled system.     

Asymptotic behavior and stability switch for a mature–immature model of cell differentiation

We consider a nonlinear age-structured model, inspired by hematopoiesis modelling, describing the dynamics of a cell population divided into mature and immature cells. Immature cells, that can be either proliferating or non-proliferating, differentiate in mature cells, that in turn control the immature cell population through a negative feedback. We reduce the system to two delay differential equations, and we investigate the asymptotic stability of the trivial and the positive steady states. By constructing a Lyapunov function, the trivial steady state is proven to be globally asymptotically stable when it is the only equilibrium of the system. The asymptotic stability of the positive steady state is related to a delay-dependent characteristic equation. Existence of a Hopf bifurcation and stability switch for the positive steady state is established. Numerical simulations illustrate the stability results.

Trichotomies for abstract semilinear differential equations

In this paper we present some results concerning the existence and uniqueness of mild solutions to certain abstract semilinear differential equations and the asymptotic behavior of these solutions. The basic techniques used are the iterative method and the fixed point theory for differential equations in Banach space. However, the most pleasant here is that it can be applied to nonlinear equations without assuming the eigenvalues of the differential operator in the linear parts of the differential equation has non-zero real part.     

Asymptotic Estimation for Some Nonlinear Delay Differential Equations

This paper deals with the asymptotic investigation of a nonlinear differential equation with variable time delay. We impose some growth restrictions on the nonlinear delayed term and introduce certain auxiliary differential and functional nondifferential equations. Then some comparison results are given and applied to particular cases of the studied nonlinear equation. Received: January 9, 2006. Revised: October 29, 2007.     

Self-similar solutions of a generalized Burgers equation with nonlinear damping

The nonlinear ordinary differential equation resulting from the self-similar reduction of a generalized Burgers equation with nonlinear damping is studied in some detail. Assuming certain asymptotic conditions at plus infinity or minus infinity, we find a wide variety of solutions—(positive) single hump, monotonic (bounded or unbounded) or solutions with a finite zero. The existence or non-existence of positive bounded solutions with exponential decay to zero at infinity for specific parameter ranges is proved. The analysis relies mainly on the shooting argument.     

Asymptotic stability of ground states in 2D nonlinear Schrödinger equation including subcritical cases

We consider a class of nonlinear Schrödinger equations in two space dimensions with an attractive potential. The nonlinearity is local but rather general encompassing for the first time both subcritical and supercritical (in L²) nonlinearities. We study the asymptotic stability of the nonlinear bound states, i.e. periodic in time localized in space solutions. Our result shows that all solutions with small initial data, converge to a nonlinear bound state. Therefore, the nonlinear bound states are asymptotically stable. The proof hinges on dispersive estimates that we obtain for the time-dependent, Hamiltonian, linearized dynamics around a carefully chosen one-parameter family of bound states that “shadows” the nonlinear evolution of the system. Due to the generality of the methods we develop we expect them to extend to the case of perturbations of large bound states and to other nonlinear dispersive wave type equations.     

The singular perturbation of boundary value problem for third-order nonlinear vector integro-differential equation and its application

In this paper, the singular perturbation of boundary value problem to a class of third-order nonlinear vector integro-differential equation is studied. Using the method of differential inequalities, under certain conditions, the existence of perturbed solution is proved, the uniformly valid asymptotic expansion for arbitrary order and the estimation of remainder term are given. Finally, the results are applied to study singularly perturbed boundary value problem to a nonlinear vector fourth-order differential equation. The existence of solution and its asymptotic estimation can be obtained conveniently.     

Rossby Solitary Waves in the Presence of a Critical Layer

This study considers the evolution of weakly nonlinear long Rossby waves in a horizontally sheared zonal current. We consider a stable flow so that the nonlinear time scale is long. These assumptions enable the flow to organize itself into a large‐scale coherent structure in the régime where a competition sets in between weak nonlinearity and weak dispersion. This balance is often described by a Korteweg‐de‐Vries equation. The traditional assumption of a weak amplitude breaks down when the wave speed equals the mean flow velocity at a certain latitude, due to the appearance of a singularity in the leading‐order equation, which strongly modifies the flow in a critical layer. Here, nonlinear effects are invoked to resolve this singularity, because the relevant geophysical flows have high Reynolds numbers. Viscosity is introduced in order to render the nonlinear‐critical‐layer solution unique, but the inviscid limit is eventually taken. By the method of matched asymptotic expansions, this inner flow is matched at the edges of the critical layer with the outer flow. We will show that the critical‐layer–induced flow leads to a strong rearrangement of the related streamlines and consequently of the potential‐vorticity contours, particularly in the neighborhood of the separatrices between the open and closed streamlines. The symmetry of the critical layer vis‐à‐vis the critical level is also broken. This theory is relevant for the phenomenon of Rossby wave breaking and eventual saturation into a nonlinear wave. Spatially localized solutions are described by a Korteweg‐de‐Vries equation, modified by new nonlinear terms; depending on the critical‐layer shape, this leads to depression or elevation waves. The additional terms are made necessary at a certain order of the asymptotic expansion while matching the inner flow on the dividing streamlines. The new evolution equation supports a family of solitary waves. In this paper we describe in detail the case of a depression wave, and postpone for further discussion the more complex case of an elevation wave.

Transseries for a class of nonlinear difference equations *

Given a nonlinear analytic difference equation of level 1 with a formal power series solution ? ₀ we associate with it a stable manifold of solutions with asymptotic expansion ? ₀. This manifold can be represented by means of Borel summable series. All solutions with asymptotic expansion ? ₀ in some sector can be written as certain exponential series which are called transseries. Some of their properties are investigated: are resurgence properties and Stokes transition. Analogous problems for differential equations have been studied by Costin in [7]     

The Inverse Scattering Transform-Fourier Analysis for Nonlinear Problems

A systematic method is developed which allows one to identify certain important classes of evolution equations which can be solved by the method of inverse scattering. The form of each evolution equation is characterized by the dispersion relation of its associated linearized version and an integro-differential operator. A comprehensive presentation of the inverse scattering method is given and general features of the solution are discussed. The relationship of the scattering theory and Backlund transformations is brought out. In view of the role of the dispersion relation, the comparatively simple asymptotic states, and the similarity of the method itself to Fourier transforms, this theory can be considered a natural extension of Fourier analysis to nonlinear problems.     

Stability of limit cycles in a pluripotent stem cell dynamics model

This paper is devoted to the study of the stability of limit cycles of a nonlinear delay differential equation with a distributed delay. The equation arises from a model of population dynamics describing the evolution of a pluripotent stem cells population. We study the local asymptotic stability of the unique nontrivial equilibrium of the delay equation and we show that its stability can be lost through a Hopf bifurcation. We then investigate the stability of the limit cycles yielded by the bifurcation using the normal form theory and the center manifold theorem. We illustrate our results with some numerics.     

Output feedback vibration control of a string driven by a nonlinear actuator

In this paper, we design an observer-based output feedback controller to exponentially stabilize a system of nonlinear ordinary differential equation-wave partial differential equation-ordinary differential equation. An observer is designed to estimate the full states of the system using available boundary values of the partial differential equation. The output feedback controller is built via the combination of the ordinary differential equation backstepping which is applied to deal with the nonlinear ordinary differential equation, and the partial differential equation backstepping which is used for the wave partial differential equation-ordinary differential equation. The controller can be applied into vibration suppression of a string-payload system driven by an actuator with nonlinear characteristics. The global exponential stability of all states in the closed-loop system is proved by Lyapunov analysis. The numerical simulation illustrates the states of the actuator, string, payload and the observer errors are fast convergent to zero under the proposed output feedback controller.     

A generalization of the Archimedean double sequence

A reaction-diffusion system involving an integrodifferential linear parabolic equation and a nonlinear ordinary differential equation is studied, under third type boundary conditions. Such a system may be used to describe the evolution of a class of man-environment epidemics. Conditions are given for the existence and the asymptotic stability of a unique nontrivial equilibrium solution, by using monotone iteration techniques.
