A study of nonlinear Langevin equation involving two fractional orders in different intervals

This paper studies a nonlinear Langevin equation involving two fractional orders α∈(0,1] and β∈(1,2] with three-point boundary conditions. The contraction mapping principle and Krasnoselskii’s fixed point theorem are applied to prove the existence of solutions for the problem. The existence results for a three-point third-order nonlocal boundary value problem of nonlinear ordinary differential equations follow as a special case of our results. Some illustrative examples are also discussed.     

Bifurcation for a free boundary problem modeling the growth of a tumor with a necrotic core

We consider a free boundary problem for a system of partial differential equations, which arises in a model of tumor growth with a necrotic core. For any positive numbers ρ<R, there exists a radially symmetric stationary solution with tumor boundary r=R and necrotic core boundary r=ρ. The system depends on a positive parameter μ, which describes the tumor aggressiveness. There also exists a sequence of values μ₂<μ₃<? for which branches of symmetry-breaking stationary solutions bifurcate from the radially symmetric solution branch.     

On the existence of weak solutions to the equations of steady flow of heat-conducting fluids with dissipative heating

We study a system of partial differential equations describing the steady flow of a heat conducting incompressible fluid in a bounded three dimensional domain, where the right-hand side of the momentum equation includes the buoyancy force. In the present work we prove the existence of a weak solution under both the smallness and a sign condition on physical parameters α₀ and α₁ which appear on the right hand side.

Integral boundary value problems for first order nonlinear impulsive functional integro-differential differential equations

In this paper, we consider the existence of solutions for first order nonlinear impulsive functional integro-differential equations with integral boundary value conditions. We firstly build a new comparison theorem. Then by utilizing the monotone iterative technique and the method of lower and upper solutions, we obtain the existence of extremal solutions or quasi-solutions.     

Hybrid projection method for generalized mixed equilibrium problem and fixed point problem of infinite family of asymptotically quasi-?-nonexpansive mappings in Banach spaces

In this paper, we consider a hybrid projection method for finding a common element in the set of fixed points of a infinite family of asymptotically quasi-?-nonexpansive mappings and in the set of solutions of a generalized mixed equilibrium problem. Some strong convergence theorems of common elements are established in a uniformly smooth and strictly convex Banach space which has the Kadec-Klee property. The results presented in the paper improve and extend some recent results.     

The equilibrium generalized assignment problem and genetic algorithm

The well-known generalized assignment problem (GAP) is to minimize the costs of assigning n jobs to m capacity constrained agents (or machines) such that each job is assigned to exactly one agent. This problem is known to be NP-hard and it is hard from a computational point of view as well. In this paper, follows from practical point of view in real systems, the GAP is extended to the equilibrium generalized assignment problem (EGAP) and the equilibrium constrained generalized assignment problem (ECGAP). A heuristic equilibrium strategy based genetic algorithm (GA) is designed for solving the proposed EGAP. Finally, to verify the computational efficiency of the designed GA, some numerical experiments are performed on some known benchmarks. The test results show that the designed GA is very valid for solving EGAP.     

On dominant poles and model reduction of second order time-delay systems

The method known as the dominant pole algorithm (DPA) has previously been successfully used in combination with model order reduction techniques to approximate standard linear time-invariant dynamical systems and second order dynamical systems. In this paper, we show how this approach can be adapted to a class of second order delay systems, which are large scale nonlinear problems whose transfer functions have an infinite number of simple poles. Deflation is a very important ingredient for this type of methods. Because of the nonlinearity, many deflation approaches for linear systems are not applicable. We therefore propose an alternative technique that essentially removes computed poles from the system?s input and output vectors. In general, this technique changes the residues, and hence, modifies the order of dominance of the poles, but we prove that, under certain conditions, the residues stay near the original residues. The new algorithm is illustrated by numerical examples.
