Existence of Solutions for Impulsive Parabolic Partial Differential Equations

We discuss the propagation of heat along a homogeneous rod of length A under the influence of a nonlinear heat source and impulsive effects at fixed times. This problem is described by an initial-boundary value problem for a nonlinear parabolic partial differential equation subjected to impulsive effects at fixed times. Using Green's function, we convert the problem into a nonlinear integral equation. Sufficient conditions are provided that enable the application of fixed point theorems to prove existence and uniqueness of solutions.

Asymptotic Analysis for a Class of Infinite Systems of First-Order PDE: Nonlinear Parabolic PDE in the Singular Limit

Abstract

We study the asymptotic behavior of solutions of the Cauchy problem for a functional partial differential equation with a small parameter as the parameter tends to zero. We establish a convergence theorem in which the limit problem is identified with the Cauchy problem for a nonlinear parabolic partial differential equation. We also present comparison and existence results for the Cauchy problem for the functional partial differential equation and the limit problem.     

The Cauchy problem for ut=Δu+|∇u|q,large-time behaviour

The nonlinear partial differential equation in the title is typified mathematically as a viscous Hamilton–Jacobi equation. It arises in the study of the growth of surfaces, and in that context is known as the generalized deterministic KPZ equation. Considering the Cauchy problem with initial data that are merely supposed to be bounded and continuous, results on the temporal decay and large-time behaviour of solutions are presented. Corresponding results for the heat equation serve as benchmarks.     

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.     

Construction and Study of Exact Solutions to A Nonlinear Heat Equation

We construct and study exact solutions to a nonlinear second order parabolic equation which is usually called the “nonlinear heat equation” or “nonlinear filtration equation” in the Russian literature and the “porous medium equation” in other countries. Under examination is the special class of solutions having the form of a heat wave that propagates through cold (zero) background with finite velocity. The equation degenerates on the boundary of a heat wave (called the heat front) and its order decreases. The construction of these solutions by passing to an overdetermined system and analyzing its solvability reduces to integration of nonlinear ordinary differential equations of the second order with an initial condition such that the equations are not solvable with respect to the higher derivative. Some admissible families of heat fronts and the corresponding exact solutions to the problems in question are obtained. A detailed study of the global properties of solutions is carried out by the methods of the qualitative theory of differential equations and power geometry which are adapted for degenerate equations. The results are interpreted from the point of view of the behavior and properties of heat waves with a logarithmic front.     

Applications of He’s principles to partial differential equations

This paper applies the variational iteration method (VIM) and semi-inverse variational principle to obtain solutions of linear and nonlinear partial differential equations. The nonlinear model is considered from gas dynamics, fluid dynamics and Burgers equation. The linear model is the heat transfer (diffusion) equation. Results show that variational iteration method is a powerful mathematical tool for solving linear and nonlinear partial differential equations, and therefore, can be widely applied to engineering problems.

Kleine periodische Lösungen bei nichtlinearen stark-elliptischen Systemen von partiellen Differentialgleichungen I

Strongly elliptic systems of nonlinear partial differential equations are considered in the case when the derivatives of the solutions occuring in the nonlinear terms have the same order as those in the linear principal part. The existence of periodic solutions for such systems is investigated. It is shown that this problem can be reduced to the study of algebraic bifurcation equations, whose small solutions correspond to the classical solutions of the given problem. A discussion of the bifurcation equations will be given in a forthcoming paper.     

The Abreu equation with degenerated boundary conditions

The Abreu equation is a fully nonlinear 4th order partial differential equation that arises from the study of the extremal metrics on toric manifolds. We study the Dirichlet problem of the Abreu equation with degenerated boundary conditions. The solutions provide the Kähler metrics of constant scalar curvature on the complex torus.     

Exact solutions of nonlinear time fractional partial differential equations by sub‐equation method

In this article, the sub‐equation method is presented for finding the exact solutions of a nonlinear fractional partial differential equations. For this, the fractional complex transformation method has been used to convert fractional‐order partial differential equation to ordinary differential equation. The fractional derivatives are described in Jumarie's the modified Riemann–Liouville sense. We apply to this method for the nonlinear time fractional differential equations. With the aid of symbolic computation, a variety of exact solutions for them are obtained. Copyright © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Application of one constructive method for the construction of non-Lie solutions of nonlinear evolution equations

We propose a constructive method for the construction of exact solutions of nonlinear partial differential equations. The method is based on the investigation of a fixed nonlinear partial differential equation (system of partial differential equations) together with an additional condition in the form of a linear ordinary differential equation of higher order. By using this method, we obtain new solutions for nonlinear generalizations of the Fisher equation and for some nonlinear evolution systems that describe real processes in physics, biology, and chemistry.

On The Coupled Cahn-hilliard Equations

This paper is concerned with a system of nonlinear partial differential equations, in short, the coupled Cahn-Hilliard equations, which consists of a fourth order quasilinear parabolic equation and a second order quasilinear parabolic equation. This system was recently derived by Penrose and Fife and also by Alt and Pawlow to describe the non-isothermal phase separation of a two-component system. The global existence and uniqueness of classical solutions is proved. The results about the asymptotic behavior, as time goes to infinity, of solution and about the existence and multiplicity of solutions to the corresponding stationary problem, which is a nonlinear boundary value problem involving nonlocal term and constraints, are also obtained.     

On the choice of auxiliary linear operator in the optimal homotopy analysis of the Cahn-Hilliard initial value problem

Analytical solutions for the Cahn-Hilliard initial value problem are obtained through an application of the homotopy analysis method. While there exist numerical results in the literature for the Cahn-Hilliard equation, a nonlinear partial differential equation, the present results are completely analytical. In order to obtain accurate approximate analytical solutions, we consider multiple auxiliary linear operators, in order to find the best operator which permits accuracy after relatively few terms are calculated. We also select the convergence control parameter optimally, through the construction of an optimal control problem for the minimization of the accumulated L ²-norm of the residual errors. In this way, we obtain optimal homotopy analysis solutions for this complicated nonlinear initial value problem. A variety of initial conditions are selected, in order to fully demonstrate the range of solutions possible.     

Rational approximation and universality for a quasilinear parabolic equation

Approximation theorems, analogous to results known for linear elliptic equations, are obtained for solutions of the heat equation. Via the Cole-Hopf transformation, this gives rise to approximation theorems for one of the simplest examples of a nonlinear partial differential equation, Burgers’ equation.     

Schwarz problem for higher‐order complex partial differential equations in the upper half plane

Linear and nonlinear elliptic complex partial differential equations of higher‐order are considered under Schwarz conditions in the upper‐half plane. Firstly, using the integral representations for the solutions of the inhomogeneous polyanalytic equation with Schwarz conditions, a class of integral operators is introduced together with some of their properties. Then, these operators are used to transform the problem for linear equations into singular integral equations. In the case of nonlinear equations such a transformation yields a system of integro‐differential equations. Existence of the solutions of the relevant boundary value problems for linear and nonlinear equations are discussed via Fredholm theory and fixed point theorems, respectively.     

Inertial manifolds of parabolic differential equations under high-order discretizations

This paper deals with the long-time behaviour of numerical discretizationsof nonlinear parabolic differential equations. For various equationsof mathematical physics, the dynamics are governed by a finite-dimensionalinertial manifold, which attracts solutions at an exponentialrate. We show that Runge-Kutta time and spectral Galerkin spacediscretizations possess inertial manifolds which approximatethe inertial manifold of the continuous problem with the orderof finite-time approximations of smooth solutions. We thus obtainestimates for the distance between the inertial manifolds ofthe partial differential equation and its semi- and full discretizationswhich show the high order of the time discretization and exponentiallyfast convergence of the space discretization. These resultsare obtained by using time analyticity and Gevrey regularityof solutions of the differential equation. As an applicationof the theory, the complex Ginzburg-Landau equation is considered.     

Decay and growth estimates for solutions of second-order and third-order differential-operator equations

We obtained decay and growth estimates for solutions of second-order and third-order differential-operator equations in a Hilbert space. Applications to initial–boundary value problems for linear and nonlinear non-stationary partial differential equations modeling the strongly damped nonlinear improved Boussinesq equation, the dual-phase-lag heat conduction equations, the equation describing wave propagation in relaxing media, and the Moore–Gibson–Thompson equation are given.     

Existence of solutions to Hamilton-Jacobi functional differential equations

This paper deals with the Cauchy problem for nonlinear first order partial functional differential equations. The unknown function is the functional variable in the equation and the partial derivatives appear in a classical sense. A theorem on the local existence of a generalized solution is proved. The initial problem is transformed into a system of functional integral equations for an unknown function and for their partial derivatives with respect to spatial variables. The existence of solutions of this system is proved by using a method of successive approximations. A method of bicharacteristics and integral inequalities are applied.     

Numerical studies of a nonlinear heat equation with square root reaction term

Interest in calculating numerical solutions of a highly nonlinear parabolic partial differential equation with fractional power diffusion and dissipative terms motivated our investigation of a heat equation having a square root nonlinear reaction term. The original equation occurs in the study of plasma behavior in fusion physics. We begin by examining the numerical behavior of the ordinary differential equation obtained by dropping the diffusion term. The results from this simpler case are then used to construct nonstandard finite difference schemes for the partial differential equation. A variety of numerical results are obtained and analyzed, along with a comparison to the numerics of both standard and several nonstandard schemes. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
