A linear periodic boundary-value problem for a second-order hyperbolic equation

We study the boundary-value problemu _tt -u _xx =g(x, t),u(0,t) =u (π,t) = 0,u(x, t +T) =u(x, t), 0 ≤x ≤ π,t ∈ ℝ. We findexact classical solutions of this problem in three Vejvoda-Shtedry spaces, namely, in the classes of, and-periodic functions (q and s are natural numbers). We obtain the results only for sets of periods, and which characterize the classes of π-, 2π -, and 4π-periodic functions.

On the behavior of solutions of a semilinear parabolic or elliptic equation satisfying a nonlinear boundary condition in a cylindrical domain

One considers a semilinear parabolic equation u _t = Lu − a(x)f(u) or an elliptic equation u _tt + Lu − a(x)f(u) = 0 in a semi-infinite cylinder Ω × ℝ₊ with the nonlinear boundary condition , where L is a uniformly elliptic divergent operator in a bounded domain Ω ∈ ℝⁿ; a(x) and b(x) are nonnegative measurable functions in Ω. One studies the asymptotic behavior of solutions of such boundary-value problems for t → ∞. __________ Translated from Trudy Seminara imeni I. G. Petrovskogo, No. 26, pp. 368–389, 2007.     

Problem with periodicity conditions for a degenerating equation of mixed type

For the equation K(t)u _xx + u _tt − b ² K(t)u = 0 in the rectangular domain D = “(x, t)‖ 0 < x < 1, −α < t < β”, where K(t) = (sgnt)|t| ^m , m > 0, and b > 0, α > 0, and β > 0 are given real numbers, we use the spectral method to obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for the unique solvability of the boundary value problem u(0, t) = u(1, t), u _x (0, t) = u _x (1, t), −α ≤ t ≤ β, u(x, β) = φ(x), u(x,−α) = ψ(x), 0 ≤ x ≤ 1.     

Grow-up of critical solutions for a non-local porous medium problem with Ohmic heating source

We investigate the behaviour of solution u = u(x, t; λ) at λ =  λ* for the non-local porous medium equation ${u_t = (u^n)_{xx} + {\lambda}f(u)/({\int_{-1}^1} f(u){\rm d}x)^2}We investigate the behaviour of solution u = u(x, t; λ) at λ =  λ* for the non-local porous medium equation u_t = (uⁿ)_xx + lf(u)/(ò_-1¹ f(u)dx)²{u_t = (u^n)_{xx} + {\lambda}f(u)/({\int_{-1}^1} f(u){\rm d}x)^2} with Dirichlet boundary conditions and positive initial data. The function f satisfies: f(s),−f ′ (s) > 0 for s ≥ 0 and s ^n-1 f(s) is integrable at infinity. Due to the conditions on f, there exists a critical value of parameter λ, say λ*, such that for λ > λ* the solution u = u(x, t; λ) blows up globally in finite time, while for λ ≥ λ* the corresponding steady-state problem does not have any solution. For 0 < λ < λ* there exists a unique steady-state solution w = w(x; λ) while u = u(x, t; λ) is global in time and converges to w as t → ∞. Here we show the global grow-up of critical solution u* =  u(x, t; λ*) (u* (x, t) → ∞, as t → ∞ for all x ? (-1,1){x\in(-1,1)}.     

Regularization of a non-characteristic Cauchy problem for the heat equation

The non-characteristic Cauchy problem for the heat equation u_xx(x,t) = u₁(x,t), 0 ? x ? 1, ? ∞ < t < ∞, u(0,t) = φ(t), u_x(0, t) = ψ(t), ? ∞ < t < ∞ is regularizèd when approximate expressions for φ and ψ are given. Properties of the exact solution are used to obtain an explicit stability estimate.

Oblique derivative problem for general Chaplygin-Rassias equations

The present paper deals with the oblique derivative problem for general second order equations of mixed (elliptic-hyperbolic) type with the nonsmooth parabolic degenerate line K_1(y)u_(xx) |K_2(x)|u_(yy) a(x,y)u_x b(x, y)u_y c(x,y)u=-d(x,y) in any plane domain D with the boundary D=Γ∪L_1∪L_2∪L_3∪L_4, whereΓ(■{y>0})∈C_μ~2 (0<μ<1) is a curve with the end points z=-1,1. L_1, L_2, L_3, L_4 are four characteristics with the slopes -H_2(x)/H_1(y), H_2(x)/H_1(y),-H_2(x)/H_1(y), H_2(x)/H_1(y)(H_1(y)=|k_1(y)|~(1/2), H_2(x)=|K_2(x)|~(1/2) in {y<0}) passing through the points z=x iy=-1,0,0,1 respectively. And the boundary condition possesses the form 1/2 u/v=1/H(x,y)Re[λuz]=r(z), z∈Γ∪L_1∪L_4, Im[λ(z)uz]|_(z=z_l)=b_l, l=1,2, u(-1)=b_0, u(1)=b_3, in which z_1, z_2 are the intersection points of L_1, L_2, L_3, L_4 respectively. The above equations can be called the general Chaplygin-Rassias equations, which include the Chaplygin-Rassias equations K_1(y)(M_2(x)u_x)_x M_1(x)(K_2(y)u_y)_y r(x,y)u=f(x,y), in D as their special case. The above boundary value problem includes the Tricomi problem of the Chaplygin equation: K(y)u_(xx) u_(yy)=0 with the boundary condition u(z)=φ(z) onΓ∪L_1∪L_4 as a special case. Firstly some estimates and the existence of solutions of the corresponding boundary value problems for the degenerate elliptic and hyperbolic equations of second order are discussed. Secondly, the solvability of the Tricomi problem, the oblique derivative problem and Frankl problem for the general Chaplygin- Rassias equations are proved. The used method in this paper is different from those in other papers, because the new notations W(z)=W(x iy)=u_z=[H_1(y)u_x-iH_2(x)u_y]/2 in the elliptic domain and W(z)=W(x jy)=u_z=[H_1(y)u_x-jH_2(x)u_y]/2 in the hyperbolic domain are introduced for the first time, such that the second order equations of mixed type can be reduced to the mixed complex equations of first order with singular coefficients. And thirdly, the advantage of complex analytic method is used, otherwise the complex analytic method cannot be applied.

Conditions for the Existence of Solutions of a Periodic Boundary-Value Problem for an Inhomogeneous Linear Hyperbolic Equation of the Second Order. I

We consider the periodic boundary-value problem u _tt − u _xx = g(x, t), u(0, t) = u(π, t) = 0, u(x, t + ω) = u(x, t). By representing a solution of this problem in the form u(x, t) = u ⁰(x, t) + ũ(x, t), where u ⁰(x, t) is a solution of the corresponding homogeneous problem and ũ(x, t) is the exact solution of the inhomogeneous equation such that ũ(x, t + ω) u x = ũ(x, t), we obtain conditions for the solvability of the inhomogeneous periodic boundary-value problem for certain values of the period ω. We show that the relation obtained for a solution includes known results established earlier. __________ Translated from Ukrains'kyi Matematychnyi Zhurnal, Vol. 57, No. 7, pp. 912–921, July, 2005.     

On nonexistence of Baras-Goldstein type without positivity assumptions for singular linear and nonlinear parabolic equations

The celebrated result by Baras and Goldstein (1984) established that the heat equation with the inverse square potential in the unit ball B ₁ ⊂ ℝ ^N , N ≥ 3, u _t = Δ _u + in B ₁ × (0,T), u|∂B ₁ = 0, in the supercritical range c > c _Hardy = does not have a solution for any nontrivial L ¹ initial data u ₀(x) ≥ 0 in B ₁ (or for a positive measure u ₀). More precisely, it was proved that a regular approximation of a possible solution by a sequence {u _n (x,t)} of classical solutions corresponding to truncated bounded potentials given by V(x) = ↦ V _n (x) = min{, n} (n ≥ 1) diverges; i.e., as n → ∞, u _n (x,t) → + ∞ in B ₁ × (0, T). Similar features of “nonexistence via approximation” for semilinear heat PDEs were inherent in related results by Brezis-Friedman (1983) and Baras-Cohen (1987). The main goal of this paper is to justify that this nonexistence result has wider nature and remains true without the positivity assumption on data u ₀(x) that are assumed to be regular and positive at x = 0. Moreover, nonexistence as the impossibility of regular approximations of solutions is true for a wide class of singular nonlinear parabolic problems as well as for higher order PDEs including, e.g., u _t = , and , N > 4.

Existence of Nondecreasing and Continuous Solutions of an Integral Equation with Linear Modification of the Argument

We use a technique associated with measures of noncompactness to prove the existence of nondecreasing solutions to an integral equation with linear modification of the argument in the space C[0, 1]. In the last thirty years there has been a great deal of work in the field of differential equations with a modified argument. A special class is represented by the differential equation with affine modification of the argument which can be delay differential equations or differential equations with linear modifications of the argument. In this case we study the following integral equation x（t） = a（t） ＋ （Tx）（t） ∫0^σ（t） u（t, s, x（s）, x（λs））ds 0 〈 λ 〈 1 which can be considered in connection with the following Cauchy problem x＇（t） = u（t, s, x（t）, x（λt））, t ∈ [0, 1], 0 〈 λ 〈 1 x（0） = u0.

Boundary Control of the Wave Process with Elastic Clamping

The article investigates the boundary control problem for the wave process described by the equation u _tt(x,t) − u _xx(x,t) = 0 in the time interval 0 < t ≤ T with elastic clamping at the point x = l. For 0 < T ≤ 2l necessary and sufficient conditions are obtained ensuring the existence of a unique boundary control and its analytical form is determined. For 2l < T ≤ 3l we derive an explicit analytical expression for this boundary control that contains two arbitrary functions (of class ) defined on a segment of length T − 2l.
