Existence of Periodic Points of Maps of S1.
The existence of global solutions and the phenomenon of blow-up of a solution in finite time for a recently derived shallow water equation are studied. We prove that the only way a classical solution could blow-up is as a breaking wave for which we determine the exact blow-up rate and, in some cases, the blow-up set. Using the correspondence between the shallow water equation and the geodesic flow on the manifold of diffeomorphisms of the line endowed with a weak Riemannian structure, we give sufficient...
A (quadratic) Hubbard tree is an invariant tree connecting the critical orbit within the Julia set of a postcritically finite (quadratic) polynomial. It is easy to read off the kneading sequences from a quadratic Hubbard tree; the result in this paper handles the converse direction. Not every sequence on two symbols is realized as the kneading sequence of a real or complex quadratic polynomial. Milnor and Thurston classified all real-admissible sequences, and we give a classification of all complex-admissible...
In this paper we examine nonlinear periodic systems driven by the vectorial -Laplacian and with a nondifferentiable, locally Lipschitz nonlinearity. Our approach is based on the nonsmooth critical point theory and uses the subdifferential theory for locally Lipschitz functions. We prove existence and multiplicity results for the “sublinear” problem. For the semilinear problem (i.e. ) using a nonsmooth multidimensional version of the Ambrosetti-Rabinowitz condition, we prove an existence theorem...
The existence of solutions for boundary value problems for a nonlinear discrete system involving the -Laplacian is investigated. The approach is based on critical point theory.
It is shown that if a manifold admits an exact symplectic form, then its Poisson Lie algebra has non trivial formal deformations and the manifold admits star-products. The non-formal derivations of the star-products and the deformations of the Poisson Lie algebra of an arbitrary symplectic manifold are studied.
We prove existence of weak solutions to doubly degenerate diffusion equations by Faedo-Galerkin approximation for general domains and general nonlinearities. More precisely, we discuss the equation in an abstract setting, which allows to choose function spaces corresponding to bounded or unbounded domains with Dirichlet or Neumann boundary conditions. The function can be an inhomogeneity or a nonlinearity involving terms of the form or . In the appendix, an introduction to weak differentiability...
This paper explores the problem of delay-independent and delay-dependent stability for a class of complex-valued neutral-type neural networks with time delays. Aiming at the neutral-type neural networks, an appropriate function is constructed to derive the existence of equilibrium point. On the basis of homeomorphism theory, Lyapunov functional method and linear matrix inequality techniques, several LMI-based sufficient conditions on the existence, uniqueness and global asymptotic stability of equilibrium...
