Discrete complex analysis – the medial graph approach

Alexander I. Bobenko, Felix Günther (2013)

Actes des rencontres du CIRM

We discuss a new formulation of the linear theory of discrete complex analysis on planar quad-graphs based on their medial graphs. It generalizes the theory on rhombic quad-graphs developed by Duffin, Mercat, Kenyon, Chelkak and Smirnov and follows the approach on general quad-graphs proposed by Mercat. We provide discrete counterparts of the most fundamental objects in complex analysis such as holomorphic functions, differential forms, derivatives, and the Laplacian. Also, we discuss discrete versions...

Discrete Dirac operators on Riemann surfaces and Kasteleyn matrices

David Cimasoni (2012)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Let be a flat surface of genus g with cone type singularities. Given a bipartite graph Γ isoradially embedded in , we define discrete analogs of the 2 2 g Dirac operators on . These discrete objects are then shown to converge to the continuous ones, in some appropriate sense. Finally, we obtain necessary and sufficient conditions on the pair Γ for these discrete Dirac operators to be Kasteleyn matrices of the graph Γ . As a consequence, if these conditions are met, the partition function of the dimer...

Discrete singular functionals

Robert Mařík (2005)

Archivum Mathematicum

In the paper the discrete version of the Morse’s singularity condition is established. This condition ensures that the discrete functional over the unbounded interval is positive semidefinite on the class of the admissible functions. Two types of admissibility are considered.

Distribution of zeros and shared values of difference operators

Jilong Zhang, Zongsheng Gao, Sheng Li (2011)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

We investigate the distribution of zeros and shared values of the difference operator on meromorphic functions. In particular, we show that if f is a transcendental meromorphic function of finite order with a small number of poles, c is a non-zero complex constant such that Δ c k f 0 for n ≥ 2, and a is a small function with respect to f, then f Δ c k f equals a (≠ 0,∞) at infinitely many points. Uniqueness of difference polynomials with the same 1-points or fixed points is also proved.

Dynamics in a discrete predator-prey system with infected prey

Changjin Xu, Peiluan Li (2014)

Mathematica Bohemica

In this paper, a discrete version of continuous non-autonomous predator-prey model with infected prey is investigated. By using Gaines and Mawhin's continuation theorem of coincidence degree theory and the method of Lyapunov function, some sufficient conditions for the existence and global asymptotical stability of positive periodic solution of difference equations in consideration are established. An example shows the feasibility of the main results.
