Growth and accretion of mass in an astrophysical model

Piotr Biler (1995)

Applicationes Mathematicae

We study asymptotic behavior of radial solutions of a nonlocal Fokker-Planck equation describing the evolution of self-attracting particles. In particular, we consider stationary solutions in balls and in the whole space, self-similar solutions defined globally in time, blowing up self-similar solutions, and singularities of solutions that blow up in a finite time.

Growth and accretion of mass in an astrophysical model, II

Piotr Biler, Tadeusz Nadzieja (1995)

Applicationes Mathematicae

Radially symmetric solutions of a nonlocal Fokker-Planck equation describing the evolution of self-attracting particles in a bounded container are studied. Conditions ensuring either global-in-time existence of solutions or their finite time blow up are given.

Homogenization of ferromagnetic multilayers in the presence of surface energies

Kévin Santugini-Repiquet (2007)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

We study the homogenization process of ferromagnetic multilayers in the presence of surface energies: super-exchange, also called interlayer exchange coupling, and surface anisotropy. The two main difficulties are the non-linearity of the Landau-Lifshitz equation and the absence of a good sequence of extension operators for the multilayer geometry. First, we consider the case when surface anisotropy is the dominant term, then the case when the magnitude of the super-exchange interaction is...

Hysteresis filtering in the space of bounded measurable functions

Pavel Krejčí, Philippe Laurençot (2002)

Bollettino dell'Unione Matematica Italiana

We define a mapping which with each function u L 0 , T and an admissible value of r > 0 associates the function ξ with a prescribed initial condition ξ 0 which minimizes the total variation in the r -neighborhood of u in each subinterval 0 , t of 0 , T . We show that this mapping is non-expansive with respect to u , r and ξ 0 , and coincides with the so-called play operator if u is a regulated function.

L -estimate for solutions of nonlinear parabolic systems

Wojciech Zajączkowski (1996)

Banach Center Publications

We prove existence of weak solutions to nonlinear parabolic systems with p-Laplacians terms in the principal part. Next, in the case of diagonal systems an L -estimate for weak solutions is shown under additional restrictive growth conditions. Finally, L -estimates for weakly nondiagonal systems (where nondiagonal elements are absorbed by diagonal ones) are proved. The L -estimates are obtained by the Di Benedetto methods.
