Essential norms of the Neumann operator of the arithmetical mean

Josef Král, Dagmar Medková (2001)

Mathematica Bohemica

Similarity:

Let K m ( m 2 ) be a compact set; assume that each ball centered on the boundary B of K meets K in a set of positive Lebesgue measure. Let C 0 ( 1 ) be the class of all continuously differentiable real-valued functions with compact support in m and denote by σ m the area of the unit sphere in m . With each ϕ C 0 ( 1 ) we associate the function W K ϕ ( z ) = 1 σ m m K g r a d ϕ ( x ) · z - x | z - x | m x of the variable z K (which is continuous in K and harmonic in K B ). W K ϕ depends only on the restriction ϕ | B of ϕ to the boundary B of K . This gives rise to a linear operator W K ...

Some remarks on α-domination

Franz Dahme, Dieter Rautenbach, Lutz Volkmann (2004)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

Let α ∈ (0,1) and let G = ( V G , E G ) be a graph. According to Dunbar, Hoffman, Laskar and Markus [3] a set D V G is called an α-dominating set of G, if | N G ( u ) D | α d G ( u ) for all u V G D . We prove a series of upper bounds on the α-domination number of a graph G defined as the minimum cardinality of an α-dominating set of G.

On upper bounds for total k -domination number via the probabilistic method

Saylí Sigarreta, Saylé Sigarreta, Hugo Cruz-Suárez (2023)

Kybernetika

Similarity:

For a fixed positive integer k and G = ( V , E ) a connected graph of order n , whose minimum vertex degree is at least k , a set S V is a total k -dominating set, also known as a k -tuple total dominating set, if every vertex v V has at least k neighbors in S . The minimum size of a total k -dominating set for G is called the total k -domination number of G , denoted by γ k t ( G ) . The total k -domination problem is to determine a minimum total k -dominating set of G . Since the exact problem is in general quite difficult...

A uniqueness result for the continuity equation in two dimensions

Giovanni Alberti, Stefano Bianchini, Gianluca Crippa (2014)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We characterize the autonomous, divergence-free vector fields b on the plane such that the Cauchy problem for the continuity equation t u + . ˙ ( b u ) = 0 admits a unique bounded solution (in the weak sense) for every bounded initial datum; the characterization is given in terms of a property of Sard type for the potential f associated to b . As a corollary we obtain uniqueness under the assumption that the curl of b is a measure. This result can be extended to certain non-autonomous vector fields b with...

On locating-domination in graphs

Mustapha Chellali, Malika Mimouni, Peter J. Slater (2010)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

A set D of vertices in a graph G = (V,E) is a locating-dominating set (LDS) if for every two vertices u,v of V-D the sets N(u)∩ D and N(v)∩ D are non-empty and different. The locating-domination number γ L ( G ) is the minimum cardinality of a LDS of G, and the upper locating-domination number, Γ L ( G ) is the maximum cardinality of a minimal LDS of G. We present different bounds on Γ L ( G ) and γ L ( G ) .

On the potential theory of some systems of coupled PDEs

Abderrahim Aslimani, Imad El Ghazi, Mohamed El Kadiri, Sabah Haddad (2016)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

In this paper we study some potential theoretical properties of solutions and super-solutions of some PDE systems (S) of type L 1 u = - μ 1 v , L 2 v = - μ 2 u , on a domain D of d , where μ 1 and μ 2 are suitable measures on D , and L 1 , L 2 are two second order linear differential elliptic operators on D with coefficients of class 𝒞 . We also obtain the integral representation of the nonnegative solutions and supersolutions of the system (S) by means of the Green kernels and Martin boundaries associated with L 1 and L 2 , and...

Characteristic points, rectifiability and perimeter measure on stratified groups

Valentino Magnani (2006)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We establish an explicit connection between the perimeter measure of an open set E with C 1 boundary and the spherical Hausdorff measure S Q 1 restricted to E , when the ambient space is a stratified group endowed with a left invariant sub-Riemannian metric and Q denotes the Hausdorff dimension of the group. Our formula implies that the perimeter measure of E is less than or equal to S Q 1 ( E ) up to a dimensional factor. The validity of this estimate positively answers a conjecture raised by Danielli,...

Positivity and anti-maximum principles for elliptic operators with mixed boundary conditions

Catherine Bandle, Joachim von Below, Wolfgang Reichel (2008)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We consider linear elliptic equations - Δ u + q ( x ) u = λ u + f in bounded Lipschitz domains D N with mixed boundary conditions u / n = σ ( x ) λ u + g on D . The main feature of this boundary value problem is the appearance of λ both in the equation and in the boundary condition. In general we make no assumption on the sign of the coefficient σ ( x ) . We study positivity principles and anti-maximum principles. One of our main results states that if σ is somewhere negative, q 0 and D q ( x ) d x > 0 then there exist two eigenvalues λ - 1 , λ 1 such the positivity...

Order boundedness and weak compactness of the set of quasi-measure extensions of a quasi-measure

Zbigniew Lipecki (2015)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

Let 𝔐 and be algebras of subsets of a set Ω with 𝔐 , and denote by E ( μ ) the set of all quasi-measure extensions of a given quasi-measure μ on 𝔐 to . We give some criteria for order boundedness of E ( μ ) in b a ( ) , in the general case as well as for atomic μ . Order boundedness implies weak compactness of E ( μ ) . We show that the converse implication holds under some assumptions on 𝔐 , and μ or μ alone, but not in general.

On the domination of triangulated discs

Noor A'lawiah Abd Aziz, Nader Jafari Rad, Hailiza Kamarulhaili (2023)

Mathematica Bohemica

Similarity:

Let G be a 3 -connected triangulated disc of order n with the boundary cycle C of the outer face of G . Tokunaga (2013) conjectured that G has a dominating set of cardinality at most 1 4 ( n + 2 ) . This conjecture is proved in Tokunaga (2020) for G - C being a tree. In this paper we prove the above conjecture for G - C being a unicyclic graph. We also deduce some bounds for the double domination number, total domination number and double total domination number in triangulated discs.
