Differential equations with infinite number of limit cycles
We introduce flat systems, which are equivalent to linear ones via a special type of feedback called endogenous. Their physical properties are subsumed by a linearizing output and they might be regarded as providing another nonlinear extension of Kalman's controllability. The distance to flatness is measured by a non-negative integer, the defect. We utilize differential algebra which suits well to the fact that, in accordance with Willems' standpoint, flatness and defect are best defined without...
Two models of microbial growth are derived as a resuslt of a discussion of the models of Monod and Hinshelwood types. The approach takes account of the lyse of dead cells in inhibitory products as well as in those which stimulate the growth. The asymptotic behaviour of the models is proved and the models applied to a chemostat.
In this paper we consider the nonlocal (nonstandard) Cauchy problem for differential inclusions in Banach spaces x'(t) ∈ F(t,x(t)), x(0)=g(x), t ∈ [0,T] = I. Investigation over some multivalued integrals allow us to prove the existence of solutions for considered problem. We concentrate on the problems for which the assumptions are expressed in terms of the weak topology in a Banach space. We recall and improve earlier papers of this type. The paper is complemented...
We prove the existence of solutions of differential inclusions on a half-line. Our results are based on an approximation method combined with a diagonalization method.
We present an abstract theory of the diffusion phenomenon for second order linear evolution equations in a Hilbert space. To derive the diffusion phenomenon, a new device developed in Ikehata-Matsuyama [5] is applied. Several applications to damped linear wave equations in unbounded domains are also given.
