Nonlinear partial differential equations of fourth order under mixed boundary conditions

Solutions to nonlinear partial differential equations of fourth order are studied. Boundary regularity is proved for solutions that satisfy mixed boundary conditions. Various geometric situations including so called triple points are considered. Regularity is measured in Sobolev-Slobodeckii spaces and the results are sharp in this scale. The approach is based on the use of a first order difference quotient method.     

Multi-Item, Multi-Facility Supply Chain Planning: Models, Complexities, and Algorithms

We propose a planning model for products manufactured across multiple manufacturing facilities sharing similar production capabilities. The need for cross-facility capacity management is most evident in high-tech industries that have capital-intensive equipment and a short technology life cycle. We propose a multicommodity flow network model where each commodity represents a product and the network structure represents manufacturing facilities in the supply chain capable of producing the products. We analyze in depth the product-level (single-commodity, multi-facility) subproblem when the capacity constraints are relaxed. We prove that even the general-cost version of this uncapacitated subproblem is NP-complete. We show that there exists an optimization algorithm that is polynomial in the number of facilities, but exponential in the number of periods. We further show that under special cost structures the shortest-path algorithm could achieve optimality. We analyze cases when the optimal solution does not correspond to a source-to-sink path, thus the shortest path algorithm would fail. To solve the overall (multicommodity) planning problem we develop a Lagrangean decomposition scheme, which separates the planning decisions into a resource subproblem, and a number of product-level subproblems. The Lagrangean multipliers are updated iteratively using a subgradient search algorithm. Through extensive computational testing, we show that the shortest path algorithm serves as an effective heuristic for the product-level subproblem (a mixed integer program), yielding high quality solutions with only a fraction (roughly 2%) of the computer time.

混合态的不确定关系与压缩效应

在关于混合态的海森堡不确定关系的基础上，研究了纯态和混合态的最小不确定性和压缩效应.虽然最小不确定态必定是纯态，但在某些并非最小不确定态的纯态或混合态中，依然可 以实现力学量不确定度的压缩.还给出了普通统计学的不确定关系，它们不涉及量子相干性却与量子力学的海森堡不确定关系具有相似的数学结构. 关键词： 混合态 最小不确定性 压缩效应     

Periodic solutions for functional-differential equations of mixed type

In this paper we study the existence of ω-periodic solutions for some functional-differential equations of mixed type. Among the main results are the averaging principle and existence theorems for some equations with homogeneous nonlinearities. We use here the coincidence degree theory of Mawhin.     

The Gleason’s problem for some polyharmonic and hyperbolic harmonic function spaces

Let Ω ⊆ ℝⁿ be a bounded convex domain with C ² boundary. For 0 < p, q ⩽ ∞ and a normal weight φ, the mixed norm space H _k ^p,q,φ (Ω) consists of all polyharmonic functions f of order k for which the mixed norm ∥ · ∥_p,q,φ < ∞. In this paper, we prove that the Gleason’s problem (Ω, a, H _k ^p,q,φ ) is always solvable for any reference point a ∈ Ω. Also, the Gleason’s problem for the polyharmonic φ-Bloch (little φ-Bloch) space is solvable. The parallel results for the hyperbolic harmonic mixed norm space are obtained.

The Dirichlet,Neumann and Mixed Boundary Value Problems of the Theory of Elasticity in n-Dimensional Domains with Boundaries Containing Closed Cuspidal Edges

The Dirichlet, Neumann and mixed problems of statics of the theory of elasticity for anisotropic homogeneous media are studied in n-dimensional (n ≧ 2) domains with boundaries containing closed cuspidal edges. Theorems of the existence and uniqueness of solutions of these problems in the Besov and Bessel potential spaces are obtained. Smoothness of solutions in a closed domain occupied by elastic medium is investigated.

Iterative solvers for quadratic discretizations of the generalized Stokes problem

We present in this paper various iterative methods for the solution of large linear and non‐linear systems resulting from the discretization of the generalized Stokes problem. A second‐order (O(h²)) P₂‐P₁ mixed finite element is used for the approximation of the velocity and the pressure. Solution strategies based on conjugate gradient‐like methods, the Uzawa's and Arrow–Hurwicz's methods are presented. Schur complement methods are also explored in the context of a hierarchical decomposition of the velocity field. The ever present preconditioning problem is also addressed. The performance of these iterative methods will be discussed on complex flows of industrial interest. Copyright © 2004 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
