Robust control problems for the multilayer quasi-geostrophic system

In this article, we study some robust control problems associated with the multilayer quasi-geostrophic equations of the ocean and related to data assimilation in oceanography. We consider higher norms (compared to [T. Tachim Medjo, Robust control problems associated with the multilayer quasi-geostrophic equations of the ocean, Appl. Math. Optim. 51(3) (2005) 333–360]) in the definition of the cost functionals. We prove the existence and uniqueness of solutions. The result relies on better a priori estimates on the solutions to the multilayer quasi-geostrophic system obtained using a new formulation that we introduce for the multilayer quasi-geostrophic equation of the ocean. The new formulation replaces the non-homogenous boundary conditions (and the non-local constraint) on the stream-function by a simple homogenous Dirichlet boundary condition.

Existence of solutions of semilinear stochastic delay evolution inclusions in a Hilbert space

In this paper the existence of mild solutions of a class of semilinear stochastic evolution inclusions with delays in a Hilbert space is studied. The results are obtained by using a fixed point theorem for condensing map due to Martelli. The result is illustrated with an example.

Analysis of iterative methods for saddle point problems: a unified approach

In this paper two classes of iterative methods for saddle point problems are considered: inexact Uzawa algorithms and a class of methods with symmetric preconditioners. In both cases the iteration matrix can be transformed to a symmetric matrix by block diagonal matrices, a simple but essential observation which allows one to estimate the convergence rate of both classes by studying associated eigenvalue problems. The obtained estimates apply for a wider range of situations and are partially sharper than the known estimates in literature. A few numerical tests are given which confirm the sharpness of the estimates.

     

The numerical range of a nonnegative matrix

We offer an almost self-contained development of Perron–Frobenius type results for the numerical range of an (irreducible) nonnegative matrix, rederiving and completing the previous work of Issos, Nylen and Tam, and Tam and Yang on this topic. We solve the open problem of characterizing nonnegative matrices whose numerical ranges are regular convex polygons with center at the origin. Some related results are obtained and some open problems are also posed.

Generalized G-KKM Theorems in Generalized Convex Spaces and Their Applications

Some new generalized G-KKM and generalized S-KKM theorems are proved under the noncompact setting of generalized convex spaces. As applications, some new minimax inequalities, saddle point theorems, a coincidence theorem, and a fixed point theorem are given in generalized convex spaces. These theorems improve and generalize many important known results in recent literature.     

Identification of regions of fastest mixing in a system of point vortices

This paper describes a numerical method for efficiently identifying the regions of fastest mixing of a passive dye in a flow due to a system of point vortices. Results obtained from computations are presented for systems of three and four point vortices, both in the unbounded domain and inside a circular cylinder. The flow is two‐dimensional and the fluid is incompressible. The regions where mixing is possible are found by studying the largest Lagrangian Lyapunov exponent distribution with respect to various initial positions of tracer particles. The regions of fastest mixing are then identified from the Lyapunov exponent distribution at small times. The results of the method are verified by quantifying the mixing by using a traditional box counting technique. The technique is then applied to several different initial configurations of vortices and some interesting results are obtained. Some numerical findings about the nature of the exponents computed are also discussed. Copyright © 2002 John Wiley Sons, Ltd.
