Numerical analysis for the scattering by obstacles in a homogeneous chiral environment

The scattering of time-harmonic electromagnetic waves propagating in a homogeneous chiral environment by obstacles is studied. The problem is simplified to a two-dimensional scattering problem, and the existence and the uniqueness of solutions are discussed by a variational approach. The diffraction problem is solved by a finite element method with perfectly matched absorbing layers. Our computational experiments indicate that the method is efficient.

Bivariate Polynomial Natural Spline Interpolation to Scattered Data

By means of the theory of spline interpolation in Hilbert spaces, the bivariate polynomial natural spline interpolation to scattered data is constructed. The method can easily be carried out on a computer, and parallelly generalized to high dimensional cases as well. The results can be used for numerical integration in higher dimensions and numerical solution of partial differential equations, and so on.     

Evaluating the Advanced Life Deferred Annuity — An annuity people might actually buy

Although annuities provide longevity insurance that should be attractive to households facing an uncertain lifespan, rates of voluntary annuitization remain extremely low. We evaluate the Advanced Life Deferred Annuity, an annuity purchased at retirement, providing an income commencing in advanced old age. Using numerical optimization, we show that it would provide a substantial proportion of the longevity insurance provided by an immediate annuity, at much lower cost. At plausible levels of actuarial unfairness, households should prefer it to both immediate and postponed annuitization and an optimal decumulation of unannuitized wealth. Few households would suffer significant losses were it used as a 401(k) plan default.     

Leader-following finite-time consensus for multi-agent systems with jointly-reachable leader

Finite-time consensus problems of the leader-following multi-agent systems with jointly-reachable leader and switching jointly-reachable leader are studied in this paper. Based on the graph theory, LaSalle’s invariance principle and Lyapunov stability theory, the finite-time consensus protocols are presented for the first-order and second-order leader-following systems. Some examples and simulation results are given to illustrate the effectiveness of the obtained theoretical results.     

圆外区域求解Helmholtz方程

1引言许多科学和工程计算问题都可以归结为无界区域上的偏微分方程边值问题．而求解椭圆方程边值问题的常用技术是有限元方法,可是对于无界区域,在用有限元方法求解时,往往遇到困难．最简单的办法显然是直接略去区域的无界部分求解,但这样做或者导致过低的计算精度,或者要付出很高的计算代价．边界归化,即将求解偏微分方程边值问题转化为边界积分方程,是求解某些无界区域问题的强有力的手段．自70年代以来,有限元和     

Existence of extremal metrics on almost homogeneous manifolds of cohomogeneity one —IV

This paper is the first of a series of papers in which we generalize our results in (Asian J. of Math. 4, 817–830 (2000); J. Geom. Anal. 12, 63–79 (2002); Intern. J. Math. 14, 259–287 (2003)) to the general complex compact almost homogeneous manifolds of real cohomogeneity one. In this paper we deal with the exceptional case of the G ₂ action (Cf. Intern. J. Math. 14, 259–287 (2003), p. 285). In particular, we prove the existence of Kähler-Einstein metric on this manifold.
