We determine all third order homogeneous linear differential equations with periodic coefficients and only periodic solutions. The method extends tonth order equations. As an application, we show that the Laguerre-Forsyth canonical form cannot be used for global investigations i projective differential geometry. Research supported by NSF Grant GP-8176.

Solvability for differential equations on fractals

We show that nonlinear differential equations based on the Laplacian have local solutions on pcf self-similar fractals. However, even linear equations may fail to have global solutions. The equation Δu =f may be solved on an arbitrary proper open set for any functionf continuous there. Research supported in part by the National Science Foundation, Grant DMS-0140194.     

Mean-field backward stochastic differential equations driven by G-Brownian motion and related partial differential equations

In this paper, we study mean-field backward stochastic differential equations driven by G-Brownian motion (G-BSDEs). We first obtain the existence and uniqueness theorem of these equations. In fact, we can obtain local solutions by constructing Picard contraction mapping for Y term on small interval, and the global solution can be obtained through backward iteration of local solutions. Then, a comparison theorem for this type of mean-field G-BSDE is derived. Furthermore, we establish the connection of this mean-field G-BSDE and a nonlocal partial differential equation. Finally, we give an application of mean-field G-BSDE in stochastic differential utility model.     

Weighted Sobolev L2 estimates for a class of Fourier integral operators

In this paper we develop elements of the global calculus of Fourier integral operators in ${{\mathbb R}^n}$ under minimal decay assumptions on phases and amplitudes. We also establish global weighted Sobolev L² estimates for a class of Fourier integral operators that appears in the analysis of global smoothing problems for dispersive partial differential equations. As an application, we exhibit a new type of weighted estimates for hyperbolic equations, where the decay of data in space is quantitatively translated into the time decay of solutions.     

Global Weak Solutions for a Parabolic System Modeling a One-Dimensional Miscible Flow in Porous Media

We consider an initial boundary value problem for a nonlinear differential system of two equations. Such a system is formed by the equations of compressible miscible flow in a one-dimensional porous medium. No assumption about the mobility ratio is involved. Under some reasonable assumptions on the data, we prove the existence of a global weak solution. Our basic approach is the semi-Galerkin method. We use the technique of renormalized solutions for parabolic equations in the derivation ofa prioriestimates.     

Long—time behaviour of strong solutions of retarded nonlinear P.D.E.s

We prove the existence of strong solutions for a class of retarded partial differential equations of second order with respect to the time variable, and study the long-time behaviour of these solutions. We prove the existence of a global finite-dimensional attractor when the parameters of the system range over a “large” domain and investigate the dependence of the attractor on these parameters.

Existence of Global Solutions for a Class of Abstract Second-Order Nonlocal Cauchy Problem with Impulsive Conditions in Banach Spaces

In this paper, we are concerned with a class of abstract second-order nonlocal Cauchy problem with impulsive conditions in Banach spaces. First, we study the existence of mild solutions for a class of second-order nonlocal Cauchy problem with impulsive conditions in Banach spaces on an interval [0,a]. Later, we study a couple of cases where we can establish the existence of global solutions for a class of abstract second-order nonlocal Cauchy problem with impulsive conditions in Banach spaces. We apply our theory to study the existence of solutions for impulsive partial differential equations.     

The representation of meromorphic solutions for a class of odd order algebraic differential equations and its applications

In this paper, we employ the Nevanlinna's value distribution theory to investigate the existence of meromorphic solutions of algebraic differential equations. We obtain the representations of all meromorphic solutions for a class of odd order algebraic differential equations with the weak ?p,q?and dominant conditions. Moreover, we give the complex method to find all traveling wave exact solutions of corresponding partial differential equations. As an example, we obtain all meromorphic solutions of the Kuramoto–Sivashinsky equation by using our complex method. Our results show that the complex method provides a powerful mathematical tool for solving great many nonlinear partial differential equations in mathematical physics.

Functional Equations in Asymptotical Problems of Queueing Theory

The investigation of communication systems with a large number of devices sometimes leads to initial-boundary problems for functional equations. In this work we consider several classes of such problems for differential-difference and integral-differential equations and for partial differential equations. We are interested in the global existence of solutions in the quarter-plane x > 0, t > 0; in the existence of stationary solutions, in their stability, and in their behavior as x .     

Lyapunov functions and convergence to steady state for differential equations of fractional order

We study the asymptotic behaviour, as t → ∞, of bounded solutions to certain integro-differential equations in finite dimensions which include differential equations of fractional order between 0 and 2. We derive appropriate Lyapunov functions for these equations and prove that any global bounded solution converges to a steady state of a related equation, if the nonlinear potential occurring in the equation satisfies the Łojasiewicz inequality.      

Asymptotic Representations for Solutions of One Class of Systems of Quasilinear Differential Equations

We establish asymptotic representations for solutions of one class of systems of differential equations appearing in the investigation of the asymptotic behavior of nth-order quasilinear differential equations.     

Nonlocal stochastic differential equations with time-varying delay driven by G-Brownian motion

This article studies a class of nonlocal stochastic differential equations driven by G-Brownian motion (G-NSDEs for short). We show the existence and uniqueness results of solutions by means of fixed point theorem. In addition, exponential estimation of (1) has been discussed. Furthermore, we present global solution to Equation (1) with the help of G-Lyapunov functional and ψ-type function.     

Mild solutions for abstract fractional differential equations

We propose a unified functional analytic approach to derive a variation of constants formula for a wide class of fractional differential equations using results on (a,?k)-regularized families of bounded and linear operators, which covers as particular cases the theories of C ₀-semigroups and cosine families. Using this approach we study the existence of mild solutions to fractional differential equation with nonlocal conditions. We also investigate the asymptotic behaviour of mild solutions to abstract composite fractional relaxation equations. We include in our analysis the Basset and Bagley–Torvik equations.     

Entropy solutions for linearly degenerate hyperbolic systems of rich type

Consider a linearly degenerate hyperbolic system of rich type. Assuming that each eigenvalue of the system has a constant multiplicity, we construct a representation formula of entropy solutions in L^∞ to the Cauchy problem. This formula depends on the solution of an autonomous system of ordinary differential equations taking x as parameter. We prove that for smooth initial data, the Cauchy problem for such an autonomous system admits a unique global solution. By using this formula together with classical compactness arguments, we give a very simple proof on the global existence of entropy solutions. Moreover, in a particular case of the system, we obtain an another explicit expression and the uniqueness of the entropy solution. Applications include the one-dimensional Born–Infeld system and linear Lagrangian systems.     

Lp – Lq Decay Estimates fo the Solutions of Strictly Hyperbolic Equations of Second Order with Increasing in Time Coefficients

One of the most important questions in the theory of nonlinear wave equations is that for global existence of solutions. An essential tool is the Strichartz inequality for special solutions of the wave equation.In the last time different results were proved generalizing the classical one of Strichartz. In the present paper L_p – L_q estimates are proved for the solutions of strictly hyperbolic equations of second order with time dependent coefficients where these are unbounded at infinity. In the first step the WKB method is applied to the construction of a fundamental system of solutions for ordinary differential equations depending on a parameter. In a second step the method of stationary phase yields the asymptotical behaviour of Fourier multipliers with nonstandard phase functions depending on a parameter.     

Differentialoperatoren bei partiellen Differentialgleichungen

Summary In the present paper those formally hyperbolic differential equations are characterized for which solutions can be represented by means of differential operators acting on holomorphic functions. This is done by a necessary and sufficient condition on the coefficients of the differential equation. These operators are determined simultaneously. By it a general procedure is presented to construct differential equations and corresponding differential operators which map holomorphic functions onto solutions of the differential equations. We also discuss the question under which circumstances all the solutions of a differential equation can be represented by differential operators. For the equations characterized previously we determine the Riemann function. Some special classes of differential equations are investigated in detail. Furthermore the possibility of a representation of pseudoanalytic functions and the corresponding Vekua resolvents by differential operators is discussed.

Global attractivity for nonlinear fractional differential equations

We present some results for the global attractivity of solutions for fractional differential equations involving Riemann-Liouville fractional calculus. The results are obtained by employing Krasnoselskii’s fixed point theorem. Similar results for fractional differential equations involving Caputo fractional derivative are also obtained by using the classical Schauder’s fixed point theorem. Several examples are given to illustrate our main results.     

Global existence and asymptotic behaviour for systems of nonlinear hyperbolic equations

We consider the initial-boundary value problem for a class of nonlinear hyperbolic equations system in a bounded domain. Using the potential well theory, the existence of global solutions is investigated. We also established the asymptotic behaviour of global solutions as t?→?+?∞ by applying the multiplier method.     

Global regularity for d-dimensional micropolar equations with fractional dissipation

This paper is devoted to the global in time existence of classical solutions to the d-Dimensional (dD) micropolar equations with fractional dissipation. Micropolar equations model a class of fluids with nonsymmetric stress tensor such as fluids consisting of particles suspended in a viscous medium. It remains unknown whether or not smooth solutions of the classical 3D micropolar equations can develop finite-time singularities. The purpose here is to explore the global regularity of solutions for dD micropolar equations under the smallest amount of dissipation. We establish the global regularity for two important fractional dissipation cases. Direct energy estimates are not sufficient to obtain the desired global a priori bounds in each case. To overcome the difficulties, we employ the Besov space techniques.
