A variational approach to bifurcation in reaction-diffusion systems with Signorini type boundary conditions

Jamol I. Baltaev, Milan Kučera, Martin Väth (2012)

Applications of Mathematics

Similarity:

We consider a simple reaction-diffusion system exhibiting Turing's diffusion driven instability if supplemented with classical homogeneous mixed boundary conditions. We consider the case when the Neumann boundary condition is replaced by a unilateral condition of Signorini type on a part of the boundary and show the existence and location of bifurcation of stationary spatially non-homogeneous solutions. The nonsymmetric problem is reformulated as a single variational inequality with...

Reaction-diffusion systems: Destabilizing effect of conditions given by inclusions

Jan Eisner (2000)

Mathematica Bohemica

Similarity:

Sufficient conditions for destabilizing effects of certain unilateral boundary conditions and for the existence of bifurcation points for spatial patterns to reaction-diffusion systems of the activator-inhibitor type are proved. The conditions are related with the mollification method employed to overcome difficulties connected with empty interiors of appropriate convex cones.

Non-smooth variational bifurcation

Similarity:

We consider bifurcation problems associated with some lower semicontinuous functionals that do not satisfy the usual regularity assumptions. For such functionals it is possible to define a generalized "Hessian form" and to show that certain eigenvalues of this one are bifurcation values. The results are applied to a bifurcation problem for elliptic variational inequalities.

Solution of degenerate parabolic variational inequalities with convection

Jozef Kacur, Roger Van Keer (2010)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

Similarity:

Degenerate parabolic variational inequalities with convection are solved by means of a combined relaxation method and method of characteristics. The mathematical problem is motivated by Richard's equation, modelling the unsaturated – saturated flow in porous media. By means of the relaxation method we control the degeneracy. The dominance of the convection is controlled by the method of characteristics.
