The spectral matrices of Toda solitons and the fundamental solution of some discrete heat equations

Luc Haine (2005)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

The Stieltjes spectral matrix measure of the doubly infinite Jacobi matrix associated with a Toda g -soliton is computed, using Sato theory. The result is used to give an explicit expansion of the fundamental solution of some discrete heat equations, in a series of Jackson’s q -Bessel functions. For Askey-Wilson type solitons, this expansion reduces to a finite sum.

The splitting in potential Crank–Nicolson scheme with discrete transparent boundary conditions for the Schrödinger equation on a semi-infinite strip

Bernard Ducomet, Alexander Zlotnik, Ilya Zlotnik (2014)

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

We consider an initial-boundary value problem for a generalized 2D time-dependent Schrödinger equation (with variable coefficients) on a semi-infinite strip. For the Crank–Nicolson-type finite-difference scheme with approximate or discrete transparent boundary conditions (TBCs), the Strang-type splitting with respect to the potential is applied. For the resulting method, the unconditional uniform in time L2-stability is proved. Due to the splitting, an effective direct algorithm using FFT is developed...

The SQP method for control constrained optimal control of the Burgers equation

Fredi Tröltzsch, Stefan Volkwein (2001)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

A Lagrange–Newton–SQP method is analyzed for the optimal control of the Burgers equation. Distributed controls are given, which are restricted by pointwise lower and upper bounds. The convergence of the method is proved in appropriate Banach spaces. This proof is based on a weak second-order sufficient optimality condition and the theory of Newton methods for generalized equations in Banach spaces. For the numerical realization a primal-dual active set strategy is applied. Numerical examples are...

The Stokes system in the incompressible case-revisited

Rainer Picard (2008)

Banach Center Publications

The classical Stokes system is reconsidered and reformulated in a functional analytical setting allowing for low regularity of the data and the boundary. In fact the underlying domain can be any non-empty open subset Ω of ℝ³. A suitable solution concept and a corresponding solution theory is developed.

The symmetry algebra and conserved Currents for Klein-Gordon equation on quantum Minkowski space

MaŁgorzata Klimek (1997)

Banach Center Publications

The symmetry operators for Klein-Gordon equation on quantum Minkowski space are derived and their algebra is studied. The explicit form of the Leibniz rules for derivatives and variables for the case Z=0 is given. It is applied then with symmetry operators to the construction of the conservation law and the explicit form of conserved currents for Klein-Gordon equation.

The topological asymptotic for the Navier-Stokes equations

Samuel Amstutz (2005)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

The aim of the topological asymptotic analysis is to provide an asymptotic expansion of a shape functional with respect to the size of a small inclusion inserted inside the domain. The main field of application is shape optimization. This paper addresses the case of the steady-state Navier-Stokes equations for an incompressible fluid and a no-slip condition prescribed on the boundary of an arbitrary shaped obstacle. The two and three dimensional cases are treated for several examples of cost functional...

The trace of the generalized harmonic oscillator

Jared Wunsch (1999)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

We study a geometric generalization of the time-dependent Schrödinger equation for the harmonic oscillator D t + 1 2 Δ + V ψ = 0 ( 0 . 1 ) where Δ is the Laplace-Beltrami operator with respect to a “scattering metric” on a compact manifold M with boundary (the class of scattering metrics is a generalization of asymptotically Euclidean metrics on n , radially compactified to the ball) and V is a perturbation of 1 2 ω 2 x - 2 , with x a boundary defining function for M (e.g. x = 1 / r in the compactified Euclidean case). Using the quadratic-scattering...

The vortex method for 2D ideal flows in the exterior of a disk

Diogo Arsénio, Emmanuel Dormy, Christophe Lacave (2014)

Journées Équations aux dérivées partielles

The vortex method is a common numerical and theoretical approach used to implement the motion of an ideal flow, in which the vorticity is approximated by a sum of point vortices, so that the Euler equations read as a system of ordinary differential equations. Such a method is well justified in the full plane, thanks to the explicit representation formulas of Biot and Savart. In an exterior domain, we also replace the impermeable boundary by a collection of point vortices generating the circulation...

The wave map problem. Small data critical regularity

Igor Rodnianski (2005/2006)

Séminaire Bourbaki

The paper provides a description of the wave map problem with a specific focus on the breakthrough work of T. Tao which showed that a wave map, a dynamic lorentzian analog of a harmonic map, from Minkowski space into a sphere with smooth initial data and a small critical Sobolev norm exists globally in time and remains smooth. When the dimension of the base Minkowski space is ( 2 + 1 ) , the critical norm coincides with energy, the only manifestly conserved quantity in this (lagrangian) theory. As a consequence,...
