Bifurcation and control for a discrete-time prey-predator model with Holling-IV functional response

Qiaoling Chen, Zhidong Teng, Zengyun Hu (2013)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

The dynamics of a discrete-time predator-prey model with Holling-IV functional response are investigated. It is shown that the model undergoes a flip bifurcation, a Hopf bifurcation and a saddle-node bifurcation by using the center manifold theorem and bifurcation theory. Numerical simulations not only exhibit our results with the theoretical analysis, but also show the complex dynamical behaviors, such as the period-3, 6, 9, 12, 20, 63, 70, 112 orbits, a cascade of period-doubling bifurcations...

Bifurcation of periodic solutions to variational inequalities in κ based on Alexander-Yorke theorem

Milan Kučera (1999)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Variational inequalities U ( t ) K , ( U ˙ ( t ) - B λ U ( t ) - G ( λ , U ( t ) ) , Z - U ( t ) ) 0 for all Z K , a.a. t [ 0 , T ) are studied, where K is a closed convex cone in κ , κ 3 , B λ is a κ × κ matrix, G is a small perturbation, λ a real parameter. The assumptions guaranteeing a Hopf bifurcation at some λ 0 for the corresponding equation are considered and it is proved that then, in some situations, also a bifurcation of periodic solutions to our inequality occurs at some λ I λ 0 . Bifurcating solutions are obtained by the limiting process along branches of solutions to penalty problems starting at λ 0 constructed...

Bloch wave homogenization of linear elasticity system

Sista Sivaji Ganesh, Muthusamy Vanninathan (2005)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

In this article, the homogenization process of periodic structures is analyzed using Bloch waves in the case of system of linear elasticity in three dimensions. The Bloch wave method for homogenization relies on the regularity of the lower Bloch spectrum. For the three dimensional linear elasticity system, the first eigenvalue is degenerate of multiplicity three and hence existence of such a regular Bloch spectrum is not guaranteed. The aim here is to develop all necessary spectral tools to overcome...

Blow-up of regular submanifolds in Heisenberg groups and applications

Valentino Magnani (2006)

Open Mathematics

We obtain a blow-up theorem for regular submanifolds in the Heisenberg group, where intrinsic dilations are used. Main consequence of this result is an explicit formula for the density of (p+1)-dimensional spherical Hausdorff measure restricted to a p-dimensional submanifold with respect to the Riemannian surface measure. We explicitly compute this formula in some simple examples and we present a lower semicontinuity result for the spherical Hausdorff measure with respect to the weak convergence...

Boubaker hybrid functions and their application to solve fractional optimal control and fractional variational problems

Kobra Rabiei, Yadollah Ordokhani (2018)

Applications of Mathematics

A new hybrid of block-pulse functions and Boubaker polynomials is constructed to solve the inequality constrained fractional optimal control problems (FOCPs) with quadratic performance index and fractional variational problems (FVPs). First, the general formulation of the Riemann-Liouville integral operator for Boubaker hybrid function is presented for the first time. Then it is applied to reduce the problems to optimization problems, which can be solved by the existing method. In this way we find...

Bound states of a converging quantum waveguide

Giuseppe Cardone, Sergei A. Nazarov, Keijo Ruotsalainen (2013)

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

We consider a two-dimensional quantum waveguide composed of two semi-strips of width 1 and 1 − ε, where ε > 0 is a small real parameter, i.e. the waveguide is gently converging. The width of the junction zone for the semi-strips is 1 + O(√ε). We will present a sufficient condition for the existence of a weakly coupled bound state below π2, the lower bound of the continuous spectrum. This eigenvalue in the discrete spectrum is unique and its asymptotics is constructed and justified when ε → 0+....

Boundaries of prescribed mean curvature

Eduardo H. A. Gonzales, Umberto Massari, Italo Tamanini (1993)

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

The existence of a singular curve in R 2 is proven, whose curvature can be extended to an L 2 function. The curve is the boundary of a two dimensional set, minimizing the length plus the integral over the set of the extension of the curvature. The existence of such a curve was conjectured by E. De Giorgi, during a conference held in Trento in July 1992.
