Second order three boundary value problem in Banach spaces via Henstock and Henstock-Kurzweil-Pettis integral

Existence theorems and some properties of solutions set of three boundary value second order differential equations and inclusions in Banach spaces are obtained under Henstock, respectively Henstock-Kurzweil-Pettis integrability assumptions. Our results extend those obtained by Azzam, Castaing and Thibault in the Bochner integrability setting and in the Pettis integrability one. The continuity of the (unique) solution with respect to a parameter in the single-valued case is also studied.

Revisiting Gouy phase

The aim of this paper is to highlight the added value of the generalized Gouy phase shift introduced by Siegman. Although suited for optical systems study, including those more complex than free space, we note that it did not meet the use that it deserves so far. The analysis of the whole of the ideas and analytical approaches associated to the important concept of the Gouy phase proves its effectiveness.

Usually, the resonance condition is systematically built on the basis of the equivalent empty cavity. Unfortunately, this approach does not cover some of the useful parameters of the real resonator. By means of the generalized Gouy phase and the self-consistent complex parameter q, we derive here a new approach for the calculation of the resonance condition for the real cavity. Moreover, the use of the generalized Gouy phase clearly simplifies the study of resonators, while making it possible to avoid the use of the Huygens’ Fresnel integral.     

Time-marching numerical schemes for the electric field integral equation on a straight thin wire

We derive and analyse four algorithms for computing the current induced on a thin straight wire by a transient electric field. They all involve solving the thin wire electric field integral equations (EFIEs) and consist of a very accurate differential equations solver together with various schemes to approximate the vector potential integral equation. We carry out a rigorous numerical stability analysis of each of these methods. This has not previously been done for solution schemes for the thin wire EFIEs. Each scheme is shown to be stable and convergent provided the radius of the wire is small enough for the thin wire equations to be a valid model.     

Trefftz,collocation, and other boundary methods—A comparison

In this article we survey the Trefftz method (TM), the collocation method (CM), and the collocation Trefftz method (CTM). We also review the coupling techniques for the interzonal conditions, which include the indirect Trefftz method, the original Trefftz method, the penalty plus hybrid Trefftz method, and the direct Trefftz method. Other boundary methods are also briefly described. Key issues in these algorithms, including the error analysis, are addressed. New numerical results are reported. Comparisons among TMs and other numerical methods are made. It is concluded that the CTM is the simplest algorithm and provides the most accurate solution with the best numerical stability. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Monotonic solutions of a quadratic integral equation of fractional order

In the paper we indicate an error made in the proof of the main result of the paper [M.A. Darwish, On quadratic integral equation of fractional orders, J. Math. Anal. Appl. 311 (2005) 112-119]. Moreover, we provide correct proof of a slightly modified version of the mentioned result. The main tool used in our proof is the technique associated with the Hausdorff measure of noncompactness.     

On new generalizations of the Hilbert integral inequality

Some new generalizations of the Hilbert integral inequality by introducing real functions ?(x) and ψ(x). The results of this paper reduce to those of the corresponding inequalities proved by Gao [Mingzhe Gao, On Hilbert's integral inequality, Math. Appl. 11 (3) (1998) 32-35]. Some applications are considered.     

The widest continuous integral

An approach to a definition of an integral, which differs from definitions of Lebesgue and Henstock-Kurzweil integrals, is considered. We use trigonometrical polynomials instead of simple functions. Let V be the space of all complex trigonometrical polynomials without the free term. The definition of a continuous integral on the space V is introduced. All continuous integrals are described in terms of norms on V. The existence of the widest continuous integral is proved, the explicit form of its norm is obtained and it is proved that this norm is equivalent to the Alexiewicz norm. It is shown that the widest continuous integral is wider than the Lebesgue integral. An analog of the fundamental theorem of calculus for the widest continuous integral is given.     

Optimality and duality in multiobjective fractional programming involving ρ-semilocally type I-preinvex and related functions

Optimality conditions are obtained for a nonlinear fractional multiobjective programming problem involving η-semidifferentiable functions. Also, a general dual is formulated and a duality result is proved using concepts of generalized ρ-semilocally type I-preinvex functions.     

On multiple integrals of special form

Multiple integrals generalizing the iterated kernels of integral operators are expressed as single integrals in the case of a special representation of the kernel (this is our theorem). Besides integral equations, Markov processes involve these integrals as well. As a consequence of the theorem, we obtain transition probability densities of certain Markov processes. As an illustration, we consider nine examples.
