Examples from the calculus of variations. I. Nondegenerate problems

Jan Chrastina (2000)

Mathematica Bohemica

Similarity:

The criteria of extremality for classical variational integrals depending on several functions of one independent variable and their derivatives of arbitrary orders for constrained, isoperimetrical, degenerate, degenerate constrained, and so on, cases are investigated by means of adapted Poincare-Cartan forms. Without ambitions on a noble generalizing theory, the main part of the article consists of simple illustrative examples within a somewhat naive point of view in order to obtain...

Killing's equations in dimension two and systems of finite type

Gerard Thompson (1999)

Mathematica Bohemica

Similarity:

A PDE system is said to be of finite type if all possible derivatives at some order can be solved for in terms lower order derivatives. An algorithm for determining whether a system of finite type has solutions is outlined. The results are then applied to the problem of characterizing symmetric linear connections in two dimensions that possess homogeneous linear and quadratic integrals of motions, that is, solving Killing's equations of degree one and two.

On results of Jan Mařík in the theory of derivatives

Mathematica Bohemica

Similarity:

Results of Jan Marik on the theory of derivatives of real functions are described.

Note on simultaneous solutions of a system of Schröder's equations

Jan Čermák (1995)

Mathematica Bohemica

Similarity:

We investigate simultaneous solutions of a system of Schroder's functional equations. Under certain assumptions these solutions are used in transformations of functional-differential equations the initial set of which consists of the initial point only.

Reflection and a mixed boundary value problem concerning analytic functions

Eva Dontová, Miroslav Dont, Josef Král (1997)

Mathematica Bohemica

Similarity:

A mixed boundary value problem on a doubly connected domain in the complex plane is investigated. The solution is given in an integral form using reflection mapping. The reflection mapping makes it possible to reduce the problem to an integral equation considered only on a part of the boundary of the domain.

Linear integral equations in the space of regulated functions

Milan Tvrdý (1998)

Mathematica Bohemica

Similarity:

n this paper we investigate systems of linear integral equations in the space $𝔾_{L}^{n}$ of $n$ -vector valued functions which are regulated on the closed interval $[0, 1]$ (i.e. such that can have only discontinuities of the first kind in $[0, 1]$ ) and left-continuous in the corresponding open interval $(0, 1) .$ In particular, we are interested in systems of the form x(t) - A(t)x(0) - 01B(t,s)[d x(s)] = f(t), where $f \in 𝔾_{L}^{n}$ , the columns of the $n \times n$ -matrix valued function $A$ belong to $𝔾_{L}^{n}$ , the entries of $B (t, .)$ have a bounded variation...
