Time evolution of information entropy for a stochastic system with double singularities driven by quasimonochromatic noise

<正>This paper deals with the time evolution of information entropy for a stochastic system with double singularities driven by quasimonochromatic noise.The dimension of the Fokker-Planck equation is reduced by the linear transformation. The exact expression of the time dependence of information entropy is obtained based on the definition of Shannon’s information entropy.The relationships between the properties of dissipative parameters,system singularity strength parameter,quasimonochromatic noise,and their effects on information entropy are discussed.     

Hyperbolicity singularities in Rarefaction Waves

For mixed-type systems of conservation laws, rarefaction waves may contain states at the boundary of the elliptic region, where two characteristic speeds coincide, and the Lax family of the wave changes. Such contiguous rarefaction waves form a single fan with a continuous profile. Different pairs of families may appear in such rarefactions, giving rise to novel Riemann solution structures. We study the structure of such rarefaction waves near regular and exceptional points of the elliptic boundary and describe their effect on Riemann solutions.     

Edge singularities and structure of the 3-D Williams expansion

The elastic solution in a vicinity of a re-entrant wedge can be described by a Williams like expansion in terms of powers of the distance to a point on the edge. This expansion has a particular structure due to the invariance of the problem by translation parallel to the edge. We show here that some terms, so-called primary solutions, derive directly from solutions to the 2-D corner problem posed in the orthogonal cross section of the domain. The others, baptized shadow functions, derive of the primary solutions by integration along the axis parallel to the edge. This 3-D Williams expansion is shown to be equivalent to the edge expansion proposed by Costabel et al. [M. Costabel, M. Dauge, Z. Yosibash, A quasidual function method for extracting edge stress intensity functions, SIAM J. Math. Anal. 35 (5) (2004) 1177–1202]. To cite this article: T. Apel et al., C. R.

Viscoelastic stresses in the stagnation flow of a dilute polymer solution

In this paper, we consider viscoelastic stresses T₁₁, T₁₂ and T₂₂ arising in the stagnation flow of a dilute polymer solution; in particular, we consider an upper convected Maxwell (UCM) fluid. We present exact solutions to the coupled partial differential equations describing the viscoelastic stresses and deduce the results for the stress T₂₂ of Becherer et al. [P. Becherer, A.N. Morozov, W. van Saarloos, Scaling of singular structures in extensional flow of dilute polymer solutions, J. Non-Newtonian Fluid Mech. 153 (2008) 183–190]. As we considered the viscoelastic stresses over two spatial variables, we are able to study the effect of variable boundary data at the inflow. As such, our results are applicable to a wider range of fluid flow problems.     

Upper bound for the time derivative of entropy for a stochastic dynamical system with double singularities driven by non-Gaussian noise

A stochastic dynamical system with double singularities driven by non-Gaussian noise is investigated. The Fokker--Plank equation of the system is obtained through the path-integral approach and the method of transformation. Based on the definition of Shannon's information entropy and the Schwartz inequality principle, the upper bound for the time derivative of entropy is calculated both in the absence and in the presence of non-equilibrium constraint. The present calculations can be used to interpret the effects of the system dissipative parameter, the system singularity strength parameter, the noise correlation time and the noise deviation parameter on the upper bound.     

A Characterization of Quasi-Homogeneous Purely Elliptic Complete Intersection Singularities

It is well-known that quasi-homogeneity is characterized by equality of the Milnor and Tjurina numbers for isolated complex analytic hypersurface singularities and for certain low-dimensional singularities. In this paper we prove that this characterization extends to isolated purely elliptic complete intersection singularities, with bounds on neither the embedding codimension nor the dimension of the singularity.     

Residues of a Pfaff system relative to an invariant subscheme

In this paper we give a purely algebraic construction of the theory of residues of a Pfaff system relative to an invariant subscheme. This construction is valid over an arbitrary base scheme of any characteristic.
