Cavitation,Invertibility, and Convergence of Regularized Minimizers in Nonlinear Elasticity

We prove that energy minimizers for nonlinear elasticity in which cavitation is allowed only at a finite number of prescribed flaw points can be obtained, in the limit as ε→0, by introducing micro-voids of radius ε in the domain at the prescribed locations and minimizing the energy without allowing for cavitation. This extends the result by Sivaloganathan, Spector, and Tilakraj (SIAM J. Appl. Math. 66:736–757, 2006) to the case of multiple cavities, and constitutes a first step towards the numerical simulation of cavitation (in the nonradially-symmetric case).      

Sparse hamiltonian 2-decompositions together with exact count of numerous Hamilton cycles

We construct multigraphs of any large order with as few as only four 2-decompositions into Hamilton cycles or only two 2-decompositions into Hamilton paths. Nevertheless, some of those multigraphs are proved to have exponentially many Hamilton cycles (Hamilton paths). Two families of large simple graphs are constructed. Members in one class have exactly 16 hamiltonian pairs and in another class exactly four traceable pairs. These graphs also have exponentially many Hamilton cycles and Hamilton paths, respectively. The exact numbers of (Hamilton) cycles and paths are expressed in terms of Lucas- or Fibonacci-like numbers which count 2-independent vertex (or edge) subsets on the n-path or n-cycle. A closed formula which counts Hamilton cycles in the square of the n-cycle is found for n≥5. The presented results complement, improve on, or extend the corresponding well-known Thomason’s results.     

On models of polydisperse sedimentation with particle-size-specific hindered-settling factors

Polydisperse suspensions consist of particles differing in size or density that are dispersed in a viscous fluid. During sedimentation, the different particle species segregate and create areas of different composition. Spatially one-dimensional mathematical models of this process can be expressed as strongly coupled, nonlinear systems of first-order conservation laws. The solution of this system is the vector of volume fractions of each species as a function of depth and time, which will in general be discontinuous. It is well known that this system is strictly hyperbolic provided that the Masliyah–Lockett–Bassoon (MLB) flux vector is chosen, the particles have the same density, and the hindered-settling factor (a multiplicative algebraic expression appearing in the flux vector) does not depend on the particle size but is the same for all species. It is the purpose of this paper to prove that this hyperbolicity result remains valid in a fairly general class of cases where the hindered-settling factor does depend on particle size. This includes the common power-law type hindered-settling factor in which the exponent, sometimes called Richardson–Zaki exponent, is determined individually for each species, and is a decreasing function of particle size. The importance of this paper is two-fold: it proves stability for a class of polydisperse suspensions that was not covered in previous work, and it offers a new analysis of real data.     

Spot Self-Replication and Dynamics for the Schnakenburg Model in a Two-Dimensional Domain

The dynamical behavior of multi-spot solutions in a two-dimensional domain Ω is analyzed for the two-component Schnakenburg reaction–diffusion model in the singularly perturbed limit of small diffusivity ε for one of the two components. In the limit ε→0, a quasi-equilibrium spot pattern in the region away from the spots is constructed by representing each localized spot as a logarithmic singularity of unknown strength S _j for j=1,…,K at unknown spot locations x _j ∈Ω for j=1,…,K. A formal asymptotic analysis, which has the effect of summing infinite logarithmic series in powers of −1/log ε, is then used to derive an ODE differential algebraic system (DAE) for the collective coordinates S _j and x _j for j=1,…,K, which characterizes the slow dynamics of a spot pattern. This DAE system involves the Neumann Green’s function for the Laplacian. By numerically examining the stability thresholds for a single spot solution, a specific criterion in terms of the source strengths S _j , for j=1,…,K, is then formulated to theoretically predict the initiation of a spot-splitting event. The analytical theory is illustrated for spot patterns in the unit disk and the unit square, and is compared with full numerical results computed directly from the Schnakenburg model.      

On the index of the boundary value problem for a homogeneous Hamiltonian system of differential equations

The index of the homogeneous self-adjoint boundary value problem for the Hamiltonian systems of ordinary differential equations is introduced. It is assumed that the system has a nontrivial solution. The relationship between the index of an eigenvalue of the nonlinear eigenvalue problem and the index of the corresponding homogeneous problem is established. Properties of the index of the problem and those of the eigenvalue are examined.
