Hyperbolic conservation laws with nonlinear diffusion and nonlinear dispersion

We study scalar conservation laws with nonlinear diffusion and nonlinear dispersion terms (any ??1), the flux function f(u) being mth order growth at infinity. It is shown that if ε, δ=δ(ε) tend to 0, then the sequence {uε} of the smooth solutions converges to the unique entropy solution u∈L^∞(0,T_∗;Lq(R)) to the conservation law ut+fx(u)=0 in . The proof relies on the methods of compensated compactness, Young measures and entropy measure-valued solutions. Some new a priori estimates are carried out. In particular, our result includes the convergence result by Schonbek when b(λ)=λ, ?=1 and LeFloch and Natalini when ?=1.     

Young measure solutions of some nonlinear mixed‐type equations

This contribution deals with measure‐valued solutions to two types of nonlinear partial differential equations for which, in general, the results on the existence of classical or weak solutions fail. These are the potential equation for transonic flow and the associated unsteady problem (forward–backward diffusion equation). The solutions are constructed by an iteration scheme (Katchanov method) and additional time discretization (Rothe method) in the second case. The existence is proved in the sense of spatial gradient Young measures. Copyright © 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Sharper uncertainty principles associated with Lp-norm

Motivated by the well-established phase derivative embedded technique, this study devotes to sharper uncertainty principles related to the L^p-norm type of uncertainty product, giving rise to two kinds of uncertainty inequalities that improve the classical result through providing tighter lower bounds. The conditions that truly reach these better estimates are obtained. Examples and simulations are carried out to verify the correctness of the derived results, and finally, possible applications in time-frequency analysis are also given.

Upper bound on the characters of the symmetric groups for balanced Young diagrams and a generalized Frobenius formula

We study asymptotics of an irreducible representation of the symmetric group Sn corresponding to a balanced Young diagram λ (a Young diagram with at most rows and columns for some fixed constant C) in the limit as n tends to infinity. We show that there exists a constant D (which depends only on C) with a property that

CALCULATION OF THE YOUNG’S MODULUS OF AN ADSORBED POLYMER LAYER

 Polymer layers adsorbed to a surface or in a confined environment often change their mechanical properties. There is even the possibility of solidification of the confined layer. To judge the stiffness of such a layer, we used the Hertz model to calculate the Young’s modulus of the polymer layer in the confinement of AFM experiments with silicon nitride tip with a radius of curvature of R » 50 nm and a glass sphere attached to the cantilever R = 5 mm. Since there is no visible indentation of the layer in the AFM experiments, the layer is either penetrated very easily, or the indentation is too small to be seen in a force curve. The latter would be the case for a polymer layer with a Young’s modulus above 4 ´ 10⁸ Pa in case of an experiment with a silicon nitride tip and 4 ´ 10⁵ Pa in case of a glass sphere.     

Permutation tableaux and permutation patterns

In this paper we introduce and study a class of tableaux which we call permutation tableaux; these tableaux are naturally in bijection with permutations, and they are a distinguished subset of the -diagrams of Alex Postnikov [A. Postnikov, Webs in totally positive Grassmann cells, in preparation; L. Williams, Enumeration of totally positive Grassmann cells, Adv. Math. 190 (2005) 319-342]. The structure of these tableaux is in some ways more transparent than the structure of permutations; therefore we believe that permutation tableaux will be useful in furthering the understanding of permutations. We give two bijections from permutation tableaux to permutations. The first bijection carries tableaux statistics to permutation statistics based on relative sizes of pairs of letters in a permutation and their places. We call these statistics weak excedance statistics because of their close relation to weak excedances. The second bijection carries tableaux statistics (via the weak excedance statistics) to statistics based on generalized permutation patterns. We then give enumerative applications of these bijections. One nice consequence of these results is that the polynomial enumerating permutation tableaux according to their content generalizes both Carlitz' q-analog of the Eulerian numbers [L. Carlitz, q-Bernoulli and Eulerian numbers, Trans. Amer. Math. Soc. 76 (1954) 332-350] and the more recent q-analog of the Eulerian numbers found in [L. Williams, Enumeration of totally positive Grassmann cells, Adv. Math. 190 (2005) 319-342]. We conclude our paper with a list of open problems, as well as remarks on progress on these problems which has been made by A. Burstein, S. Corteel, N. Eriksen, A. Reifegerste, and X. Viennot.
