On the heat kernel and the Korteweg--de Vries hierarchy

Plamen Iliev (2005)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

We give explicit formulas for Hadamard's coefficients in terms of the tau-function of the Korteweg-de Vries hierarchy. We show that some of the basic properties of these coefficients can be easily derived from these formulas.

On the hierarchies of higher order mKdV and KdV equations

Axel Grünrock (2010)

Open Mathematics

The Cauchy problem for the higher order equations in the mKdV hierarchy is investigated with data in the spaces H ^ s r defined by the norm v 0 H ^ s r : = ξ s v 0 ^ L ξ r ' , ξ = 1 + ξ 2 1 2 , 1 r + 1 r ' = 1 . Local well-posedness for the jth equation is shown in the parameter range 2 ≥ 1, r > 1, s ≥ 2 j - 1 2 r ' . The proof uses an appropriate variant of the Fourier restriction norm method. A counterexample is discussed to show that the Cauchy problem for equations of this type is in general ill-posed in the C 0-uniform sense, if s < 2 j - 1 2 r ' . The results for r = 2 - so far in...

On the Hölder continuity of weak solutions to nonlinear parabolic systems in two space dimensions

Joachim Naumann, Jörg Wolf, Michael Wolff (1998)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

We prove the interior Hölder continuity of weak solutions to parabolic systems u j t - D α a j α ( x , t , u , u ) = 0 in Q ( j = 1 , ... , N ) ( Q = Ω × ( 0 , T ) , Ω 2 ), where the coefficients a j α ( x , t , u , ξ ) are measurable in x , Hölder continuous in t and Lipschitz continuous in u and ξ .

On the homogenization of the Poisson equation in partially perforated domains with arbitrary density of cavities and mixed type conditions on their boundary

Olga A. Oleinik, Tatiana A. Shaposhnikova (1996)

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

In this paper we study the behavior of solutions of the boundary value problem for the Poisson equation in a partially perforated domain with arbitrary density of cavities and mixed type conditions on their boundary. The corresponding spectral problem is also considered. A short communication of similar results can be found in [1].

On the importance of solid deformations in convection-dominated liquid/solid phase change of pure materials

Daniela Mansutti, Edoardo Bucchignani (2011)

Applications of Mathematics

We analyse the effect of the mechanical response of the solid phase during liquid/solid phase change by numerical simulation of a benchmark test based on the well-known and debated experiment of melting of a pure gallium slab counducted by Gau & Viskanta in 1986. The adopted mathematical model includes the description of the melt flow and of the solid phase deformations. Surprisingly the conclusion reached is that, even in this case of pure material, the contribution of the solid phase to the...
