Transverse Spectral Stability of Small Periodic Traveling Waves for the KP Equation

The Kadomtsev–Petviashvili (KP) equation possesses a four‐parameter family of one‐dimensional periodic traveling waves. We study the spectral stability of the waves with small amplitude with respect to two‐dimensional perturbations which are either periodic in the direction of propagation, with the same period as the one‐dimensional traveling wave, or nonperiodic (localized or bounded). We focus on the so‐called KP‐I equation (positive dispersion case), for which we show that these periodic waves are unstable with respect to both types of perturbations. Finally, we briefly discuss the KP‐II equation, for which we show that these periodic waves are spectrally stable with respect to perturbations that are periodic in the direction of propagation, and have long wavelengths in the transverse direction.     

Weighted pseudo-almost periodic solutions to some differential equations

The paper considers some new classes of functions called weighted pseudo-almost periodic functions, which implement in a natural fashion the classical pseudo-almost periodic functions due to Zhang. Properties of these weighted pseudo-almost periodic functions are discussed, including a composition result for weighted pseudo-almost periodic functions. The results obtained are subsequently utilized to study the existence and uniqueness of a weighted pseudo-almost periodic solution to the heat equation with Dirichlet conditions.     

Dynamic behaviors of the periodic predator–prey model with modified Leslie-Gower Holling-type II schemes and impulsive effect

In this paper, a predator–prey system which based on a modified version of the Leslie–Gower scheme and Holling-type II scheme with impulsive effect are investigated, where all the parameters of the system are time-dependent periodic functions. By using Floquet theory of linear periodic impulsive equation, some conditions for the linear stability of trivial periodic solution and semi-trivial periodic solutions are obtained. It is proved that the system can be permanent if all the trivial and semi-trivial periodic solutions are linearly unstable. We use standard bifurcation theory to show the existence of nontrivial periodic solutions which arise near the semi-trivial periodic solution. As an application, we also examine some special case of the system to confirm our main results.     

Analysis of an epidemic model with density-dependent birth rate,birth pulses

In this paper, we propose an SIS epidemic model for which population births occur during a single period of the year. Using the discrete map, we obtain exact periodic solutions of system which is with Ricker function. The existence and stability of the infection-free periodic solution and the positive periodic solution are investigated. The Poincaré map, the center manifold theorem and the bifurcation theorem are used to discuss flip bifurcation and bifurcation of the positive periodic solution. Numerical results imply that the dynamical behaviors of the epidemic model with birth pulses are very complex, including small-amplitude periodic 1 solution, large-amplitude multi-periodic cycles, and chaos. This suggests that birth pulse, in effect, provides a natural period or cyclicity that allow for a period-doubling route to chaos.

The global behaviors of a generalized periodic impulsive Logistic system with nonlinear density dependence are studied. Conditions for the existence and global attractivity of positive periodic solution are obtained via the method of comparison and Liapunov function. The corresponding results for the periodic impulsive Logistic system, which are dependent on solving the system, are extended.

Almost periodic solutions of a discrete Lotka–Volterra competition system with delays

In this paper, we consider a discrete almost periodic Lotka–Volterra competition system with delays. Sufficient conditions are obtained for the permanence and global attractivity of the system. Further, by means of an almost periodic functional hull theory, we show that the almost periodic system has a unique strictly positive almost periodic solution, which is globally attractive. Some examples are presented to verify our main results.

Dynamic analysis of a turbidostat model with the feedback control

In this paper, a mathematical model with impulsive state feedback control is proposed for turbidostat system. The sufficient conditions of existence of positive order one periodic solution are obtained by using the existence criteria of periodic solution of a general planar impulsive autonomous system. It is shown that the system either tends to a stable state or has a periodic solution, which depends on the feedback state, the control parameter of the dilution rate and the initial concentration of microorganism and substrate. By investigating the periodic solution, the period and the initial point of the periodic solution are given. The results show that turbidostat with impulsive state feedback control tends to an order one periodic solution.

Integrate-and-fire models with an almost periodic input function

We investigate leaky integrate-and-fire models (LIF models for short) driven by Stepanov and μ-almost periodic functions. Special attention is paid to the properties of the firing map and its displacement, which give information about the spiking behavior of the considered system. We provide conditions under which such maps are well-defined and are uniformly continuous. We show that the LIF models with Stepanov almost periodic inputs have uniformly almost periodic displacements. We also show that in the case of μ-almost periodic drives it may happen that the displacement map is uniformly continuous, but is not μ-almost periodic (and thus cannot be Stepanov or uniformly almost periodic). By allowing discontinuous inputs, we extend some previous results, showing, for example, that the firing rate for the LIF models with Stepanov almost periodic input exists and is unique. This is a starting point for the investigation of the dynamics of almost-periodically driven integrate-and-fire systems.     

Abundant periodic and aperiodic solutions of a discontinuous three-term recurrence relation

In this note, we study a discontinuous three-term recurrence relation which arises from seeking the steady states of a cellular neural network with step control function. Several collections of periodic solutions are found. A necessary and sufficient condition for a solution to be periodic is stated and aperiodic solutions are found as consequences. We also show that any periodic solution can be derived from a primary periodic solution with least period not divisible by 5. Although the periodic or aperiodic solutions we found are not exhaustive, they are quite abundant and may reflect some of the rich physical phenomena in true biological systems. Our method in this note may also provide a general approach to analyze the periodicity of solutions of similar recurrence relations.     

Generalization of the Jurdjevic-Quinn theorem and stabilization of bilinear control systems with periodic coefficients: I

The Jurdjevic-Quinn theorem on the global asymptotic stabilization of the origin is generalized to nonlinear time-varying affine control systems with periodic coefficients. The proof is based on the Krasovskii theorem on the global asymptotic stability for periodic systems and the introduced notion of “commutator” for two vector fields one of which is time-varying. The obtained sufficient conditions for stabilization are applied to bilinear control systems with periodic coefficients. We construct a control periodic in t in the form of a quadratic form in x that asymptotically stabilizes the zero solution of a bilinear periodic system with a time-invariant drift.     

Dynamic behaviors of the periodic Lotka–Volterra competing system with impulsive perturbations

In this paper, we investigate a classical periodic Lotka–Volterra competing system with impulsive perturbations. The conditions for the linear stability of trivial periodic solution and semi-trivial periodic solutions are given by applying Floquet theory of linear periodic impulsive equation, and we also give the conditions for the global stability of these solutions as a consequence of some abstract monotone iterative schemes introduced in this paper, which will be also used to get some sufficient conditions for persistence. By using the method of coincidence degree, the conditions for the existence of at least one strictly positive (componentwise) periodic solution are derived. The theoretical results are confirmed by a specific example and numerical simulations. It shows that the dynamic behaviors of the system we consider are quite different from the corresponding system without pulses.     

Fourier expansion based recursive algorithms for periodic Riccati and Lyapunov matrix differential equations

Combining Fourier series expansion with recursive matrix formulas, new reliable algorithms to compute the periodic, non-negative, definite stabilizing solutions of the periodic Riccati and Lyapunov matrix differential equations are proposed in this paper. First, periodic coefficients are expanded in terms of Fourier series to solve the time-varying periodic Riccati differential equation, and the state transition matrix of the associated Hamiltonian system is evaluated precisely with sine and cosine series. By introducing the Riccati transformation method, recursive matrix formulas are derived to solve the periodic Riccati differential equation, which is composed of four blocks of the state transition matrix. Second, two numerical sub-methods for solving Lyapunov differential equations with time-varying periodic coefficients are proposed, both based on Fourier series expansion and the recursive matrix formulas. The former algorithm is a dimension expanding method, and the latter one uses the solutions of the homogeneous periodic Riccati differential equations. Finally, the efficiency and reliability of the proposed algorithms are demonstrated by four numerical examples.     

Antiplane periodic contact problems fora layer non-uniform along its thickness

Antiplane periodic contact problems for an elastic layer with a shear modulus which variesexponentially along its thickness are considered. The problems are reduced to an integral equation of the first kind with an irregular, periodic, difference kernel. A method which has been described previously [1,2] is used for the approximate solution of this equation.     

Periodic jordan rings and order structure

The aim of this paper is to obtain information about a periodic Jordan ring by using only properties of its idempotent elements. Osborn proves that a power-associative periodic ring having only one nonzero idempotent element is a division ring. so associative. He also proves that a periodic Jordan ring is a subdirect product of simple periodic Jordan rings and that a simple periodic Jordan ring is either a periodic field or a Jordan ring of capacity 2. Using these results we obtain some necessary and suficient conditions for a periodic Jordan ring to be associative, and these conditions are only given in terms of the idempotent elements. We also characterize the periodic Jordan ring which are a direct product of periodic fields and simple periodic Jordan rings of capacity two.     

On solutions of nonlinear Schrödinger equations with Cantor-type spectrum

The solvability of the Cauchy problem for the Nonlinear Nonfocusing Schrödinger equation (NNSE) with almost periodic initial data satisfying certain conditions is studied. It is shown that solutions are uniform almost periodic functions with respect to each variable. An example of initial data with Cantor-type spectrum is given. The Cauchy problem for NNSE is solved in the class of limit periodic functions which are well approximated by periodic ones.

For general nonautonomous case, sufficient conditions which ensure the permanence and the global stability of the system are obtained; for periodic case, sufficient conditions which ensure the existence of a globally stable positive periodic solution of the system are obtained.
