Let $y\left(h\right)(t,x)$ be one solution to$${\partial }_{t}y(t,x)-\sum _{i,j=1}^n{\partial }_j\left(a_{ij}\left(x\right){\partial }_{i}y(t,x)\right)=h(t,x),0\<t\<T,x\in \Omega$$with a non-homogeneous term $h$, and ${y|}_{(0,T)\times \partial \Omega }=0$, where $\Omega \subset {ℝ}^n$ is a bounded domain. We discuss an inverse problem of determining $n(n+1)/2$ unknown functions $a_{ij}$ by $\{{\partial }_{\nu }y\left(h_{\ell }\right){|}_{(0,T)\times {\Gamma }_0}$, $y\left(h_{\ell }\right)(\theta ,·){\}}_{1\le \ell \le {\ell }_0}$ after selecting input sources $h_1,...,h_{{\ell }_0}$ suitably, where ${\Gamma }_0$ is an arbitrary subboundary, ${\partial }_{\nu }$ denotes the normal derivative, $0\<\theta \<T$ and ${\ell }_0\in \mathbb{N}$. In the case of ${\ell }_0={(n+1)}^{2}n/2$, we prove the Lipschitz stability in the inverse problem if we choose $(h_1,...,h_{{\ell }_0})$ from a set $\mathscr{H}\subset {\left\{C_0^{\infty }((0,T)\times \omega )\right\}}^{{\ell }_0}$ with an arbitrarily fixed subdomain $\omega \subset \Omega$. Moreover we can take ${\ell }_0=(n+3)n/2$ by making special choices for $h_{\ell }$, $1\le \ell \le {\ell }_0$. The proof is...

The existence and attractivity of a local center manifold for fully nonlinear parabolic equation with infinite delay is proved with help of a solutions semigroup constructed on the space of initial conditions. The result is applied to the stability problem for a parabolic integrodifferential equation.

We consider the development and analysis of local discontinuous Galerkin methods for fractional diffusion problems in one space dimension, characterized by having fractional derivatives, parameterized by β ∈[1, 2]. After demonstrating that a classic approach fails to deliver optimal order of convergence, we introduce a modified local numerical flux which exhibits optimal order of convergence &#x1d4aa;(hk + 1) uniformly across the continuous range between pure advection (β = 1) and pure diffusion...

Let $P$ be a long range metric perturbation of the Euclidean Laplacian on ${ℝ}^d$, $d\ge 2$. We prove local energy decay for the solutions of the wave, Klein-Gordon and Schrödinger equations associated to $P$. The problem is decomposed in a low and high frequency analysis. For the high energy part, we assume a non trapping condition. For low (resp. high) frequencies we obtain a general result about the local energy decay for the group $e^{itf\left(P\right)}$ where $f$ has a suitable development at zero (resp. infinity).

We prove the local in time existence of solutions for an aggregation equation in Besov spaces. The Fourier localization technique and Littlewood-Paley theory are the main tools used in the proof.

The local existence and the uniqueness of solutions for equations describing the motion of viscous compressible heat-conducting fluids in a domain bounded by a free surface is proved. First, we prove the existence of solutions of some auxiliary problems by the Galerkin method and by regularization techniques. Next, we use the method of successive approximations to prove the local existence for the main problem.
