Existence of solutions for sequential fractional differential equations with four-point nonlocal fractional integral boundary conditions

This paper investigates the existence of solutions for a nonlinear boundary value problem of sequential fractional differential equations with four-point nonlocal Riemann-Liouville type fractional integral boundary conditions. We apply Banach’s contraction principle and Krasnoselskii’s fixed point theorem to establish the existence of results. Some illustrative examples are also presented.     

A box-type scheme for fractional sub-diffusion equation with Neumann boundary conditions

Combining order reduction approach and L1 discretization, a box-type scheme is presented for solving a class of fractional sub-diffusion equation with Neumann boundary conditions. A new inner product and corresponding norm with a Sobolev embedding inequality are introduced. A novel technique is applied in the proof of both stability and convergence. The global convergence order in maximum norm is O(τ^2−α + h²). The accuracy and efficiency of the scheme are checked by two numerical tests.     

Existence of positive solutions for nonlocal boundary value problem of fractional differential equation

In this paper, we study a type of nonlinear fractional differential equations multi-point boundary value problem with fractional derivative in the boundary conditions. By using the upper and lower solutions method and fixed point theorems, some results for the existence of positive solutions for the boundary value problem are established. Some examples are also given to illustrate our results.     

Exact solutions of the nonlocal Gerdjikov-Ivanov equation

The nonlocal nonlinear Gerdjikov-Ivanov (GI) equation is one of the most important integrable equations, which can be reduced from the third generic deformation of the derivative nonlinear Schrödinger equation. The Darboux transformation is a successful method in solving many nonlocal equations with the help of symbolic computation. As applications, we obtain the bright-dark soliton, breather, rogue wave, kink, W-shaped soliton and periodic solutions of the nonlocal GI equation by constructing its 2n-fold Darboux transformation. These solutions show rich wave structures for selections of different parameters. In all these instances we practically show that these solutions have different properties than the ones for local case.     

Transfer matrix spectrum for the finite-width Ising model with adjustable boundary conditions: Exact solution

Using the spinor approach, we calculate exactly the complete spectrum of the transfer matrix for the finite-width, planar Ising model with adjustable boundary conditions. Specifically, in order to control the boundary conditions, we consider an Ising model wrapped around the cylinder, and introduce along the axis a seam of defect bonds of variable strength. Depending on the boundary conditions used, the mass gap is found to vanish algebraically or exponentially with the size of the system. These results are compared with recent numerical simulations, and with random-walk and capillary-wave arguments.     

A solution of the sine-Gordon equation with boundary conditions appropriate to oscillating superfluorescence

A procedure is given for solving the sine-Gordon equation with boundary conditions which define the physical problem of superfluorescent emission from an inverted and spatially extended medium. The shape of the leading pulse is calculated. An important new result is a verification and extension of the form of the expression of MacGillivray and Feld and of Skribanowitz, Herman, MacGillivray and Feld for the delay time τ_D in oscillating superfluorescence.     

Results for a fractional diffusion equation with a nonlocal term in spherical symmetry

We obtain time dependent solutions for a fractional diffusion equation containing a nonlocal term by considering the spherical symmetry and using the Green function approach. The nonlocal term incorporated in the diffusion equation may also be related to the spatial and time fractional derivative and introduces different regimes of spreading of the solution with the time evolution. In addition, a rich class of anomalous diffusion processes may be described from the results obtained here.     

Exact boundary condition for time-dependent wave equation based on boundary integral

An exact non-reflecting boundary conditions based on a boundary integral equation or a modified Kirchhoff-type formula is derived for exterior three-dimensional wave equations. The Kirchhoff-type non-reflecting boundary condition is originally proposed by L. Ting and M.J. Miksis [J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 80 (1986) 1825] and numerically tested by D. Givoli and D. Cohen [J. Comput. Phys. 117 (1995) 102] for a spherically symmetric problem. The computational advantage of Ting–Miksis boundary condition is that its temporal non-locality is limited to a fixed amount of past information. However, a long-time instability is exhibited in testing numerical solutions by using a standard non-dissipative finite-difference scheme. The main purpose of this work is to present a new exact boundary condition and to eliminate the long-time instability. The proposed exact boundary condition can be considered as a limit case of Ting–Miksis boundary condition when the two artificial boundaries used in their method approach each other. Our boundary condition is actually a boundary integral equation on a single artificial boundary for wave equations, which is to be solved in conjunction with the interior wave equation. The new boundary condition needs only one artificial boundary, which can be of any shape, i.e., sphere, cubic surface, etc. It keeps all merits of the original Kirchhoff boundary condition such as restricting the temporal non-locality, free of numerical evaluation of any special functions and so on. Numerical approximation to the artificial boundary condition on cubic surface is derived and three-dimensional numerical tests are carried out on the cubic computational domain.
