Analysis of a time discretization scheme for a nonstandard viscous Cahn–Hilliard system

Pierluigi Colli, Gianni Gilardi, Pavel Krejčí, Paolo Podio-Guidugli, Jürgen Sprekels (2014)

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

In this paper we propose a time discretization of a system of two parabolic equations describing diffusion-driven atom rearrangement in crystalline matter. The equations express the balances of microforces and microenergy; the two phase fields are the order parameter and the chemical potential. The initial and boundary-value problem for the evolutionary system is known to be well posed. Convergence of the discrete scheme to the solution of the continuous problem is proved by a careful development...

Analysis of the boundary symbol for the two-phase Navier-Stokes equations with surface tension

Jan Prüss, Gieri Simonett (2009)

Banach Center Publications

The two-phase free boundary value problem for the Navier-Stokes system is considered in a situation where the initial interface is close to a halfplane. We extract the boundary symbol which is crucial for the dynamics of the free boundary and present an analysis of this symbol. Of particular interest are its singularities and zeros which lead to refined mapping properties of the corresponding operator.

Analysis of total variation flow and its finite element approximations

Xiaobing Feng, Andreas Prohl (2003)

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

We study the gradient flow for the total variation functional, which arises in image processing and geometric applications. We propose a variational inequality weak formulation for the gradient flow, and establish well-posedness of the problem by the energy method. The main idea of our approach is to exploit the relationship between the regularized gradient flow (characterized by a small positive parameter ε , and the minimal surface flow [21] and the prescribed mean curvature flow [16]. Since our...

Analysis of total variation flow and its finite element approximations

We propose a variational inequality weak formulation for the gradient flow, and establish well-posedness of the problem by the energy method. The main idea of our approach is to exploit the relationship between the regularized gradient flow (characterized by a small positive parameter ε, see (1.7)) and the minimal surface flow [21] and the prescribed mean curvature flow [16].

Analytic continuation of fundamental solutions to differential equations with constant coefficients

Christer O. Kiselman (2011)

Annales de la faculté des sciences de Toulouse Mathématiques

If P is a polynomial in R n such that 1 / P integrable, then the inverse Fourier transform of 1 / P is a fundamental solution E P to the differential operator P ( D ) . The purpose of the article is to study the dependence of this fundamental solution on the polynomial P . For n = 1 it is shown that E P can be analytically continued to a Riemann space over the set of all polynomials of the same degree as P . The singularities of this extension are studied.

Analytic semigroups generated on a functional extrapolation space by variational elliptic equations

Vincenzo Vespri (1988)

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

We prove that any elliptic operator of second order in variational form is the infinitesimal generator of an analytic semigroup in the functional space C - 1 , α ( Ω ) consinsting of all derivatives of hölder-continuous functions in Ω where Ω is a domain in n not necessarily bounded. We characterize, moreover the domain of the operator and the interpolation spaces between this and the space C - 1 , α ( Ω ) . We prove also that the spaces C - 1 , α ( Ω ) can be considered as extrapolation spaces relative to suitable non-variational operators....
