PLANE ELASTIC PROBLEMS OF DIFFERENT MEDIA WITH CRACKS ON THE INTERFACE

The equllibrium problem for the infinite elastic plane consisting of two different media with many cracks on the interface is discussed.It is transferred to a boundary value problem for analytic functions and then further reduced to a singular integral equation,the unique solvability and an effective method of solution for which are eatablished.A practical example in applications is illustrated,the solution of which is obtained in closed form.     

An Example of Embedded Singular Continuous Spectrum for One-Dimensional Schrödinger Operators

We present a new example of a potential such that the corresponding Schrödinger operator in the halfaxis has singular continuous spectrum embedded in the absolutely continuous spectrum. The singular part is supported in an essentialy dense set. This generalizes a result of C. Remling [3].Mathematics Subject Classification: 34L40, 81Q10.     

Uniqueness of diffusion generators for two types of particle systems with singular interactions

For two types of stochastic particle systems in we show non-explosion in finite time by proving that their respective generators are L¹(μ)-unique, where μ is their respective invariant (in these cases even symmetrizing) measure. We also prove the much harder L²(μ)-uniqueness in both models.     

Inheritance of surjectivity for partial differential operators on spaces of real analytic functions

For an open set let A(Ω) be the space of real analytic functions on Ω. Improving our previous results, we prove a new quantitative characterization of the linear partial differential operators P(D) which are surjective on A(Ω). This implies that P(D) is surjective on if P(D) is surjective on A(Ω) for some Ω≠∅. Further inheritance properties for the surjectivity of P(D) on A(Ω) are also obtained.

A note on a paper by G. Mastroianni and G. Monegato

Recently, Mastroianni and Monegato derived error estimates for a numerical approach to evaluate the integral

where or or and is a smooth function (see G. Mastroianni and G. Monegato, Error estimates in the numerical evaluation of some BEM singular integrals, Math. Comp. 70 2001, 251-267). The error bounds for the quadrature rule approximating the inner integral given in Theorems 3, 4 of that paper are not correct according to the proof. However, following a different approach, we are able to improve the pointwise error estimates given in that paper.

     

Existence of Entire Solutions of a Singular Semilinear Elliptic Problem

In this paper, we obtain some existence results for a class of singular semilinear elliptic problems where we improve some earlier results of Zhijun Zhang. We show the existence of entire positive solutions without the monotonic condition imposed in Zhang‘s paper. The main point of our technique is to choose an approximating sequence and prove its convergence. The desired compactness can be obtained by the Sobolev embedding theorems.
