Existence of pulses in excitable media with nonlocal coupling

We prove the existence of fast traveling pulse solutions in excitable media with non-local coupling. Existence results had been known, until now, in the case of local, diffusive coupling and in the case of a discrete medium, with finite-range, non-local coupling. Our approach replaces methods from geometric singular perturbation theory, that had been crucial in previous existence proofs, by a PDE oriented approach, relying on exponential weights, Fredholm theory, and commutator estimates.

Approximation properties for solutions to non‐Lipschitz stochastic differential equations with Lévy noise

In this paper, we consider the non‐Lipschitz stochastic differential equations and stochastic functional differential equations with delays driven by Lévy noise, and the approximation theorems for the solutions to these two kinds of equations will be proposed respectively. Non‐Lipschitz condition is much weaker condition than the Lipschitz one. The simplified equations will be defined to make its solutions converge to that of the corresponding original equations both in the sense of mean square and probability, which constitute the approximation theorems.

Interactions of delta shock waves for the relativistic Chaplygin Euler equations with split delta functions

In this article, we are concerned with the interactions of delta shock waves with contact discontinuities for the relativistic Euler equations for Chaplygin gas by using split delta functions method. The solutions are obtained constructively and globally when the initial data consists of three piecewise constant states. The global structure and large time‐asymptotic behaviors of the solutions are analyzed case by case. During the process of the interaction, the strengths of delta shock waves are computed completely. Moreover, it can be found that the Riemann solutions are stable for such small perturbations with special initial data by letting perturbed parameter ε tends to zero.

Standing waves for 4‐superlinear Schrödinger‐Kirchhoff equations

We consider standing waves for 4‐superlinear Schrödinger–Kirchhoff equations in with potential indefinite in sign. The nonlinearity considered in this study satisfies a condition that is much weaker than the classical Ambrosetti–Rabinowitz condition. We obtain a nontrivial solution and, in the case of odd nonlinearity, an unbounded sequence of solutions via the Morse theory and the fountain theorem, respectively.

Oscillation criteria and asymptotic properties of solutions of third‐order nonlinear neutral differential equations

The main goal of this article is to study the asymptotic properties and oscillation of the third‐order neutral differential equations with discrete and distributed delay. We give several theorems and related examples to illustrate the applicability of these theorems. Copyright © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
