On a model of rotating superfluids

Sylvia Serfaty (2001)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

We consider an energy-functional describing rotating superfluids at a rotating velocity ω , and prove similar results as for the Ginzburg-Landau functional of superconductivity: mainly the existence of branches of solutions with vortices, the existence of a critical ω above which energy-minimizers have vortices, evaluations of the minimal energy as a function of ω , and the derivation of a limiting free-boundary problem.

On a nonlinear elliptic system: resonance and bifurcation cases

Mario Zuluaga Uribe (1999)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

In this paper we consider an elliptic system at resonance and bifurcation type with zero Dirichlet condition. We use a Lyapunov-Schmidt approach and we will give applications to Biharmonic Equations.

On a nonlinear stationary problem in unbounded domains.

Carlos Frederico Vasconcellos (1992)

Revista Matemática de la Universidad Complutense de Madrid

We study existence and some properties of solutions of the nonlinear elliptic equation N(x,a(u))Lu = f in unbounded domains. The above method is not a variational problem. Our techniques involve fixed point arguments and Galerkin method.

On a nonlocal elliptic problem

Andrzej Raczyński (1999)

Applicationes Mathematicae

We study stationary solutions of the system u t = ( ( m - 1 ) / m u m + u φ ) , m => 1, Δφ = ±u, defined in a bounded domain Ω of n . The physical interpretation of the above system comes from the porous medium theory and semiconductor physics.

On a Parallel Implementation of the Mortar Element Method

Gassav S. Abdoulaev, Yves Achdou, Yuri A. Kuznetsov, Christophe Prud'homme (2010)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

We discuss a parallel implementation of the domain decomposition method based on the macro-hybrid formulation of a second order elliptic equation and on an approximation by the mortar element method. The discretization leads to an algebraic saddle- point problem. An iterative method with a block- diagonal preconditioner is used for solving the saddle- point problem. A parallel implementation of the method is emphasized. Finally the results of numerical experiments are presented.

On a phase-field model with a logarithmic nonlinearity

Alain Miranville (2012)

Applications of Mathematics

Our aim in this paper is to study the existence of solutions to a phase-field system based on the Maxwell-Cattaneo heat conduction law, with a logarithmic nonlinearity. In particular, we prove, in one and two space dimensions, the existence of a solution which is separated from the singularities of the nonlinear term.
