Local Regularity for Parabolic Nonlocal Operators

Weak solutions to parabolic integro-differential operators of order α ∈ (α₀, 2) are studied. Local a priori estimates of Hölder norms and a weak Harnack inequality are proved. These results are robust with respect to α↗2. In this sense, the presentation is an extension of Moser's result from [20 Moser , J. ( 1971 ). On a pointwise estimate for parabolic differential equations . Comm. Pure Appl. Math. 24 : 727 – 740 .[Crossref], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]].     

On The Existence of a Countable Set of Positive Solutions for a Nonlocal Boundary-Value Problem with Vector-Valued Response

ABSTRACT

The existence of a countable set of positive solutions for a nonlocal boundary-value problem with vector-valued response is investigated by some variational methods based on the idea of the Fenchel conjugate. As a consequence of a duality developed here, we obtain the existence of a countable set of solutions for our problem that are minimizers to a certain integral functional. We derive (also in the superlinear case) a measure of a duality gap between primal and dual functional for approximate solutions.     

Prediction of biaxial buckling behavior of single-layered graphene sheets based on nonlocal plate models and molecular dynamics simulations

The biaxial buckling behavior of single-layered graphene sheets (SLGSs) is studied in the present work. To consider the size-effects in the analysis, Eringen’s nonlocal elasticity equations are incorporated into the different types of plate theory namely as classical plate theory (CLPT), first-order shear deformation theory (FSDT), and higher-order shear deformation theory (HSDT). An exact solution is conducted to obtain the critical biaxial buckling loads of simply-supported square and rectangular SLGSs with various values of side-length and nonlocal parameter corresponding to each type of nonlocal plate model. Then, molecular dynamics (MD) simulations are performed for a series of armchair and zigzag SLGSs with different side-lengths, the results of which are matched with those obtained by the nonlocal plate models to extract the appropriate values of nonlocal parameter relevant to each type of nonlocal elastic plate model and chirality. It is found that the present nonlocal plate models with their proposed proper values of nonlocal parameter have an excellent capability to predict the biaxial buckling response of SLGSs.     

Innovative solution of a 2D elastic transmission problem¶

This article is concerned with a boundary-field equation approach to a class of boundary value problems exterior to a thin domain. A prototype of this kind of problems is the interaction problem with a thin elastic structure. We are interested in the asymptotic behavior of the solution when the thickness of the elastic structure approaches to zero. In particular, formal asymptotic expansions will be developed, and their rigorous justification will be considered. As will be seen, the construction of these formal expansions hinges on the solutions of a sequence of exterior Dirichlet problems, which can be treated by employing boundary element methods. On the other hand, the justification of the corresponding formal procedure requires an independence on the thickness of the thin domain for the constant in the Korn inequality. It is shown that in spite of the reduction of the dimensionality of the domain under consideration, this class of problems are, in general, not singular perturbation problems, because of appropriate interface conditions.     

Complete symmetry group and nonlocal symmetries for some two-dimensional evolution equations

The complete symmetry group of an 1+1 evolution equation of maximal symmetry has been demonstrated to be represented by the six-dimensional Lie algebra of point symmetries sl(2,R)s_⊕W, where W is the three-dimensional Heisenberg-Weyl algebra. We construct a complete symmetry group of a 1+2 evolution equation ut=(Fy(u)ux) for some functions F using the point symmetries admitted by the equation. The 1+2 equation is not completely specifiable by point symmetries alone for some specific functions F. We make use of Ansätze already reported by Myeni and Leach [S.M. Myeni, P.G.L. Leach, Nonlocal symmetries and complete symmetry groups of evolution equations, J. Nonlinear Math. Phys. 13 (2006) 377-392] which provide a route to the determination of the required generic nonlocal symmetries necessary to supplement the point symmetries for the complete specification of these 1+2 evolution equations. Further we find that taking some suitable linear combination of Lie point symmetries helps to optimise the procedure of specifying the equation. A general result concerning the number of symmetries required to form a complete symmetry group of evolution is presented in the Conclusion.     

Existence of positive solutions to third order differential equations with advanced arguments and nonlocal boundary conditions

We use a fixed point theorem due to Avery and Peterson to establish the existence of at least three non-negative solutions of some nonlocal boundary value problems to third order differential equations with advanced arguments. An example is given to illustrate the main results.     

Approximations of solutions to neutral functional differential equations with nonlocal history conditions

This work is concerned with a class of neutral functional differential equations with nonlocal history conditions in a Hilbert space. The approximation of solution to a class of such problems is studied. Moreover, the convergence of Faedo-Galerkin approximation of solution is shown. For illustration, an example is worked out.
