Decomposable systems of differential operators and generalized inverses
We construct a degree theory for Vanishing Mean Oscillation functions in metric spaces, following some ideas of Brezis & Nirenberg. The underlying sets of our metric spaces are bounded open subsets of and their boundaries. Then, we apply our results in order to analyze the surjectivity properties of the -harmonic extensions of VMO vector-valued functions. The operators we are dealing with are second order linear differential operators sum of squares of vector fields satisfying the hypoellipticity...
The realization of an elliptic operator A under suitable boundary conditions is considered and the dependence of the square-root of A from the various conditions is studied.
We study discrete spectrum in spectral gaps of an elliptic periodic second order differential operator in L2(ℝd) perturbed by a decaying potential. It is assumed that a perturbation is nonnegative and has a power-like behavior at infinity. We find asymptotics in the large coupling constant limit for the number of eigenvalues of the perturbed operator that have crossed a given point inside the gap or the edge of the gap. The corresponding asymptotics...
Our studies are motivated by a desire to model long-time simulations of possible scenarios for a waste disposal. Numerical methods are developed for solving the arising systems of convection-diffusion-dispersion-reaction equations, and the received results of several discretization methods are presented. We concentrate on linear reaction systems, which can be solved analytically. In the numerical methods, we use large time-steps to achieve long simulation times of about 10 000 years. We propose...
