An extension theorem for a Matkowski-Sutô problem

Zoltán Daróczy, Gabriella Hajdu, Che Tat Ng (2003)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Let I be an interval, 0 < λ < 1 be a fixed constant and A(x,y) = λx + (1-λ)y, x,y ∈ I, be the weighted arithmetic mean on I. A pair of strict means M and N is complementary with respect to A if A(M(x,y),N(x,y)) = A(x,y) for all x, y ∈ I. For such a pair we give results on the functional equation f(M(x,y)) = f(N(x,y)). The equation is motivated by and applied to the Matkowski-Sutô problem on complementary weighted quasi-arithmetic means M and N.

An inconsistency equation involving means

Roman Ger, Tomasz Kochanek (2009)

Colloquium Mathematicae

We show that any quasi-arithmetic mean A φ and any non-quasi-arithmetic mean M (reasonably regular) are inconsistent in the sense that the only solutions f of both equations f ( M ( x , y ) ) = A φ ( f ( x ) , f ( y ) ) and f ( A φ ( x , y ) ) = M ( f ( x ) , f ( y ) ) are the constant ones.

An optimal quantitative two-scale expansion in stochastic homogenization of discrete elliptic equations

Antoine Gloria, Stefan Neukamm, Felix Otto (2014)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

We establish an optimal, linear rate of convergence for the stochastic homogenization of discrete linear elliptic equations. We consider the model problem of independent and identically distributed coefficients on a discretized unit torus. We show that the difference between the solution to the random problem on the discretized torus and the first two terms of the two-scale asymptotic expansion has the same scaling as in the periodic case. In particular the L2-norm in probability of the H1-norm...

Analog of Favard's Theorem for Polynomials Connected with Difference Equation of 4-th Order

Zagorodniuk, S. (2001)

Serdica Mathematical Journal

Orthonormal polynomials on the real line {pn (λ)} n=0 ... ∞ satisfy the recurrent relation of the form: λn−1 pn−1 (λ) + αn pn (λ) + λn pn+1 (λ) = λpn (λ), n = 0, 1, 2, . . . , where λn > 0, αn ∈ R, n = 0, 1, . . . ; λ−1 = p−1 = 0, λ ∈ C. In this paper we study systems of polynomials {pn (λ)} n=0 ... ∞ which satisfy the equation: αn−2 pn−2 (λ) + βn−1 pn−1 (λ) + γn pn (λ) + βn pn+1 (λ) + αn pn+2 (λ) = λ2 pn (λ), n = 0, 1, 2, . . . , where αn > 0, βn ∈ C, γn ∈ R, n = 0, 1, 2, . . ., α−1 = α−2...

Analytic solutions of a nonlinear two variables difference system whose eigenvalues are both 1

Mami Suzuki (2011)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

For nonlinear difference equations, it is difficult to obtain analytic solutions, especially when all the eigenvalues of the equation are of absolute value 1. We consider a second order nonlinear difference equation which can be transformed into the following simultaneous system of nonlinear difference equations: ⎧ x(t+1) = X(x(t),y(t)) ⎨ ⎩ y(t+1) = Y(x(t), y(t)) where X ( x , y ) = λ x + μ y + i + j 2 c i j x i y j , Y ( x , y ) = λ y + i + j 2 d i j x i y j satisfy some conditions. For these equations, we have obtained analytic solutions in the cases "|λ₁| ≠ 1 or |λ₂| ≠ 1" or "μ...
