Our aim in this work is to provide sufficient conditions for the existence of global solutions of second order neutral functional differential equation with state-dependent delay. We use the semigroup theory and Schauder's fixed point theorem.
This paper is concerned with a delayed single population model with hereditary effect. Under appropriate conditions, we employ a novel argument to establish a criterion of the global exponential stability of positive almost periodic solutions of the model. Moreover, an example and its numerical simulation are given to illustrate the main result.
This paper is concerned with an SIR model with periodic incidence rate and saturated treatment function. Under proper conditions, we employ a novel argument to establish a criterion on the global exponential stability of positive periodic solutions for this model. The result obtained improves and supplements existing ones. We also use numerical simulations to illustrate our theoretical results.
We investigate the Cohen-Grosberg differential equations with mixed delays and time-varying coefficient: Several useful results on the functional space of such functions like completeness and composition theorems are established. By using the fixed-point theorem and some properties of the doubly measure pseudo almost automorphic functions, a set of sufficient criteria are established to ensure the existence, uniqueness and global exponential stability of a -pseudo almost automorphic solution. The...
We prove Gronwall-type estimates for the distance of integral curves of smooth vector fields on a Riemannian manifold. Such estimates are of central importance for all methods of solving ODEs in a verified way, i.e., with full control of roundoff errors. Our results may therefore be seen as a prerequisite for the generalization of such methods to the setting of Riemannian manifolds.
The problem of distributing two conducting materials with a prescribed volume ratio in a ball so as to minimize the first eigenvalue of an elliptic operator with Dirichlet conditions is considered in two and three dimensions. The gap ε between the two conductivities is assumed to be small (low contrast regime). The main result of the paper is to show, using asymptotic expansions with respect to ε and to small geometric perturbations of the optimal shape, that the global minimum of the first eigenvalue...
Oscillatory properties of the second order nonlinear equation are investigated. In particular, criteria for the existence of at least one oscillatory solution and for the global monotonicity properties of nonoscillatory solutions are established. The possible coexistence of oscillatory and nonoscillatory solutions is studied too.
The paper is concerned with a class of optimal blocking problems in the plane. We consider a time dependent set R(t) ⊂ ℝ2, described as the reachable set for a differential inclusion. To restrict its growth, a barrier Γ can be constructed, in real time. This is a one-dimensional rectifiable set which blocks the trajectories of the differential inclusion. In this paper we introduce a definition of “regular strategy”, based on a careful classification of blocking arcs. Moreover, we derive local and...
