Analysis of a Population Model Structured by the Cells Molecular Content

M. Doumic (2010)

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

We study the mathematical properties of a general model of cell division structured with several internal variables. We begin with a simpler and specific model with two variables, we solve the eigenvalue problem with strong or weak assumptions, and deduce from it the long-time convergence. The main difficulty comes from natural degeneracy of birth terms that we overcome with a regularization technique. We then extend the results to the case with several parameters and recall the link between this...

Approximation and eigenvalue extrapolation of Stokes eigenvalue problem by nonconforming finite element methods

Shanghui Jia, Hehu Xie, Xiaobo Yin, Shaoqin Gao (2009)

Applications of Mathematics

In this paper we analyze the stream function-vorticity-pressure method for the Stokes eigenvalue problem. Further, we obtain full order convergence rate of the eigenvalue approximations for the Stokes eigenvalue problem based on asymptotic error expansions for two nonconforming finite elements, Q 1 rot and E Q 1 rot . Using the technique of eigenvalue error expansion, the technique of integral identities and the extrapolation method, we can improve the accuracy of the eigenvalue approximations.

Approximation of a semilinear elliptic problem in an unbounded domain

Let f be an odd function of a class C 2 such that f ( 1 ) = 0 , f ' ( 0 ) < 0 , f ' ( 1 ) > 0 and x f ( x ) / x increases on [ 0 , 1 ] . We approximate the positive solution of - Δ u + f ( u ) = 0 , on + 2 with homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions by the solution of - Δ u L + f ( u L ) = 0 , on ] 0 , L [ 2 with adequate non-homogeneous Dirichlet conditions. We show that the error u L - u tends to zero exponentially fast, in the uniform norm.

Let f be an odd function of a class C2 such that ƒ(1) = 0,ƒ'(0) < 0,ƒ'(1) > 0 and x f ( x ) / x increases on [0,1]. We approximate the positive solution of Δu + ƒ(u) = 0, on + 2 with homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions by the solution of - Δ u L + f ( u L ) = 0 , on ]0,L[2 with adequate non-homogeneous Dirichlet conditions. We show that the error uL - u tends to zero exponentially fast, in the uniform norm.

Approximation of an eigenvalue problem associated with the Stokes problem by the stream function-vorticity-pressure method

Wei Chen, Qun Lin (2006)

Applications of Mathematics

By means of eigenvalue error expansion and integral expansion techniques, we propose and analyze the stream function-vorticity-pressure method for the eigenvalue problem associated with the Stokes equations on the unit square. We obtain an optimal order of convergence for eigenvalues and eigenfuctions. Furthermore, for the bilinear finite element space, we derive asymptotic expansions of the eigenvalue error, an efficient extrapolation and an a posteriori error estimate for the eigenvalue. Finally,...
