Equivalence classes of regularly varying functions

A useful method to derive limit results for partial maxima and record values of independent, identically distributed random variables is to start from one specific probability distribution and to extend the result for this distribution to a class of distributions.This method involves an extended theory of regularly varying functions. In this paper, equivalence classes of regularly varying functions (in the extended sense) are studied, which is relevant to the problems mentioned above.     

Tanh Jacobi spectral collocation method for the numerical simulation of nonlinear Schrödinger equations on unbounded domain

We present a class of orthogonal functions on infinite domain based on Jacobi polynomials. These functions are generated by applying a tanh transformation to Jacobi polynomials. We construct interpolation and projection error estimates using weighted pseudo-derivatives tailored to the involved mapping. Then, using the nodes of the newly introduced tanh Jacobi functions, we develop an efficient spectral tanh Jacobi collocation method for the numerical simulation of nonlinear Schrödinger equations on the infinite domain without using artificial boundary conditions. The applicability and accuracy of the solution method are demonstrated by two numerical examples for solving the nonlinear Schrödinger equation and the nonlinear Ginzburg–Landau equation.     

Derivatives of regularly varying functions in Rd and domains of attraction of stable distributions

In R² the integral of a regularly varying (RV) function f is regularly varying only if f is monotone. Generalization to R² of the one-dimensional result on regular variation of the derivative of an RV-function however is straightforward. Applications are given to limit theory for partial sums of i.i.d. positive random vectors in R²₊.     

On two unimodal descent polynomials

The descent polynomials of separable permutations and derangements are both demonstrated to be unimodal. Moreover, we prove that the $\gamma$-coefficients of the first are positive with an interpretation parallel to the classical Eulerian polynomial, while the second is spiral, a property stronger than unimodality. Furthermore, we conjecture that they are both real-rooted.     

On eigenfunction expansions of piecewise smooth functions,associated with the power of the Schrödinger operator

The eigenfunction expansions of an integer power of the Schrödinger operator in an arbitrary two-dimensional domain are considered. The convergence of the corresponding expansions of piecewise smooth functions is proved. When the dimension of the domain is greater than two, then it is well known that this result is not valid any more.     

Dunkl-Schrödinger semigroups and applications

We obtain dispersive estimates for the linear Dunkl–Schrödinger equations with and without quadratic potential. As a consequence, we prove the local well-posedness for semilinear Dunkl–Schrödinger equations with polynomial nonlinearity in certain magnetic field. Furthermore, we study many applications: as the uncertainty principles for the Dunkl transform via the Dunkl–Schrödinger semigroups, the embedding theorems for the Sobolev spaces associated with the generalized Hermite semigroup. Finally, almost every where convergence of the solutions of the Dunkl–Schrödinger equation is also considered.     

Extremal solutions to a system of n nonlinear differential equations and regularly varying functions

The strongly increasing and strongly decreasing solutions to a system of n nonlinear first order equations are here studied, under the assumption that both the coefficients and the nonlinearities are regularly varying functions. We establish conditions under which such solutions exist and are (all) regularly varying functions, we derive their index of regular variation and establish asymptotic representations. Several applications of the main results are given, involving n‐th order nonlinear differential equations, equations with a generalized ?‐Laplacian, and nonlinear partial differential systems.     

The Nehari manifold for the Schrödinger–Poisson systems with steep well potential

In this paper, via variational methods, we consider the existence and concentration of positive solutions for a system of Schrödinger–Poisson equation involving concave–convex nonlinearities under some suitable assumptions of weight functions.
