混合Bitsadze-Lavrentév-Tricomi边值问题

It is well known that F. G. Tricomi (1923) is the originator of the theoryof boundary value problems for mixed type equations by establishing the Thicomi equation: y·u_xx+u_yy=0 which is hyperbolic for y < 0, elliptic for y=0. and parabolic for y= 0 and then applied it in the theory of transonic flows.Then A.V.Bitsadze together with M. A . Lavrent′ev (1950) established the Bitsadze Lavre nt′ev equation: sgn( y ) ·u_xx+u_yy=0 where sgn(y) = 1 for y > 0, = -1 for y<0, 0 for y=0 with the discontinuous coefficient sgn( y ) of u_xx, while in the case of Tricomi equation the corre sponding coefficient y is continuous. In this paper we establish the mixed Bitsadze Lavrent′ev Tricomi equation. Lu=K(y)·u_xx+sgn(x) ·u_yy+r(x,y)·u=f(x,y), where the coefficient K=K(y) of u_xx is increasing continuous and coefficient M=sgn(x) of u_yy discontinuous, r=r(x,y) is once continuously differentiable, f=f(x,y) continuous. Finally we prove the uniqueness of quasi regular solutions and observe that these new results can bbe applied in fluid dynamics.

Localization and the integer-quantized Hall effect: Diffusion constant for high Landau levels and white noise potential

The diffusion constant and the diagonal conductivity for non-interacting electrons in a two-dimensional, disordered system are studied. A homogeneous magnetic field perpendicular to the electron system is assumed. For weak short-range random potentials and high fields the Landau quantum numbern can be used as expansion parameter. In the limit of high Landau levels the system shows metallic behaviour. Corrections for finiten decrease the conductivity and indicate localized states in the whole energy band. A breakdown of the expansion and stronger localization are observed only for the lowest Landau levels if the typical experimental length scale of the quantized Hall effect is used.     

Surface-field induced interband tunneling in InAs

Metal/insulator/semiconductor junctions are prepared on degeneratep-type InAs substrates with hole concentrations ranging from 2.3×10¹⁷ cm^–3 to 2.7×10¹⁸ cm^–3. The low work function of the top metal Yb, Al, or Au and charged interface states influence a two-dimensional (2D) electron inversion layer at the InAs surface. The insulator barrier that is formed by thermal oxidation is designed sufficiently thin, so that the bias voltage applied at the metal electrode mainly drops across the depletion layer separating the electron channel from the bulk. The current-voltage (I–V) characteristics exhibit strong negative differential conductance due to interband, tunneling from the 2D subband into the 3D valence band with peak-to-valley current ratios up to 3.1, 18, and 32 at 300 K, 77 K, and 4.2 K, respectively. In agreement with a theoretical model based on coherentelastic tunneling, the form of the I–V curves resembles those of double-barrier resonant tunnel devices rather than those of 3D Esaki diodes. The series resistance is obtained from the saturation of the differential conductance dI/dV at high forward bias and from the shift of structures in d² I/dV ² arising from phonon assisted tunneling.Dedicated to G.

Calculation of diatomic molecules with the lctoc method. Excited states of some homonuclear molecules and ions

Calculations are performed, using a basis of two-center functions described previously, for excited states of the following three-and four-electron compounds: H₂ ^–, He₂ ⁺, He₂, Li₂ ⁺². High efficiency is demonstrated for the frozen ionic core approximation and the nonorthogonal orbital method in such calculations. For four-electron systems the practical feasibility of the frozen hybrid core approximation is demonstrated.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 8, pp. 53–56, August, 1987.     

The Iyengar Type Inequalities with Exact Estimations and the Chebyshev Central Algorithms of Integrals

In this paper, both low order and high order extensions of the Iyengar type inequality are obtained. Such extensions are the best possible in the same sense as that of the Iyengar inequality. hzrthermore, the Chebyshev central algorithms of integrals for some function classes and some related problems are also considered and investigated.     

A representation of acoustic waves in unbounded domains

Compact, time‐harmonic, acoustic sources produce waves that decay too slowly to be square‐integrable on a line away from the sources. We introduce an inner product, arising directly from Green's second theorem, to form a Hilbert space of these waves and present examples of its computation.¹ © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.     

Search for a reliable methodology for PSD determination based on a combined molecular simulation-regularization-experimental approach: The case of PHTS materials

We present here a methodology for searching a robust pore size distribution (PSD) for adsorbent materials. The method is based on a combination of individual adsorption isotherms, obtained from Grand Canonical Monte Carlo simulations, a regularization procedure to invert the adsorption integral equation (Tikhonov regularization solved by singular value decomposition), and the needed experimental adsorption isotherm. The selection of several parameters from the available choices to start the procedure are discussed here: the size of the kernel (number of individual pores and number of experimental adsorption points to be included), the fulfillment of the Discrete Picard condition, and the L-curve criteria, all leading to find a reliable and robust PSD. The procedure is applied to plugged hexagonal templated silicas (PHTS), synthesized, and characterized in our laboratory.
