Differential operators of the first order with degenerate principal symbols

Rainer Felix (1992)

Banach Center Publications

Let there be given a differential operator on n of the form D = i , j = 1 n a i j · x j / x i + μ , where A = ( a i j ) is a real matrix and μ is a complex number. We study the following question: To what extent the mapping D : S ' ( n ) S ' ( n ) is surjective? We shall give some conditions on A and μ which assure the surjectivity of D.

Differential stability of solutions to air quality control problems in urban area

Piotr Holnicki, Jan Sokołowski, Antoni Żochowski (1987)

Aplikace matematiky

The convex optimal control problem for a system described by the parabolic equation is considered. The form of the right derivative of an optimal solution with respect to the parameter is derived. The applications to an air quality control problem are discussed. Numerical result are provided.

Diffusion and cross-diffusion in pattern formation

Wei-Ming Ni (2004)

Atti della Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei. Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali. Rendiconti Lincei. Matematica e Applicazioni

We discuss the stability and instability properties of steady state solutions to single equations, shadow systems, as well as 2 × 2 systems. Our basic observation is that the more complicated the pattern are, the more unstable they tend to be.

Diffusion and propagation problems in some ramified domains with a fractal boundary

Yves Achdou, Christophe Sabot, Nicoletta Tchou (2006)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

This paper is devoted to some elliptic boundary value problems in a self-similar ramified domain of 2 with a fractal boundary. Both the Laplace and Helmholtz equations are studied. A generalized Neumann boundary condition is imposed on the fractal boundary. Sobolev spaces on this domain are studied. In particular, extension and trace results are obtained. These results enable the investigation of the variational formulation of the above mentioned boundary value problems. Next, for homogeneous...
