    Notes: Summary We consider the problem of studying the behaviour of the eigenvalues associated with spline functions with equally spaced knots. We show that they are $$O\left( {\frac{{i^{2m} }}{n}} \right)i = 1, \ldots ,n - m$$ wherem is the order of the spline andn, the number of knots. This result is of particular interest to prove optimality properties of the Generalized Cross-Validation Method and had been conjectured by Craven and Wahba in a recent paper.

    Notes: Summary We present in this first paper a generalization of Padé approximants which gives us as particular cases Shafer's and Baker'sD-log approximants. First we define these approximants following an old idea of Hermite, then we prove some fundamental properties for their constructions.

    Notes: Summary The variational formulation of multivariate spline functions is generalized to include cases where the function has to satisfy inequality constraints such as positivity and convexity. Condition for existence and uniqueness of a solution is given. Approximation to the solution can be obtained by solving the variational problem in a finite dimensional subspace. Conditions for convergence and error estimates of the approximations are presented, both for interpolation problems and smoothing problems. The general theory is illustrated by specific examples including the “volume-matching” problem and the “one-sided thin plate spline”.

    Description / Table of Contents: Summary Equivalence constants for the norms on parameter and function space are considered for both polynomials and exponential sums. In the latter case “Chebyshev” exponential sums are introduced as generalizations of the Chebyshev polynomials, providing a practical method for error estimation in parameter space. For theoretical purposes a “Markoff-type” inequality is proved. In the case of polynomials asymptotically optimal constants are derived, thus improving on earlier results of Gautschi. Furthermore, a simple construction of the equivalence constants for the monomial basis is included.
    Notes: Zusammenfassung Für Polynome und Exponentialsummen mit festen Frequenzen werden die Normäquivalenzkonstanten zwischen Parameterraum und Funktionenraum untersucht. Dies führt im Exponentialsummenfall auf “Tschebyscheff-Exponentialsummen” als Verallgemeinerung der Tschebyscheff-Polynome, wenn man nach numerisch praktikablen Strategien zur Fehlerabschätzung im Parameterraum sucht; für theoretische Zwecke wird eine Ungleichung von Markoff-Typ für Exponentialsummen hergeleitet. Im Falle der Polynome ergeben sich asymptotisch optimale Konstanten als Verschärfungen von Resultaten von Gautschi. Ferner wird eine elementare Herleitung der Normäquivalenzkonstanten für den Fall der Monombasis angegeben.

    Notes: Summary In the univariate case the ɛ-algorithm of Wynn is closely related to the Padé-table in the following sense: if we apply the ɛ-algorithm to the partial sums of the power series $$f(x) = \sum\limits_{i = 0}^\infty {c_i x^i } $$ then ε 2m l−m is the (l, m) Padé-approximant tof(x) wherel is the degree of the numerator andm is the degree of the denominator [1 pp. 66–68]. Several generalizations of the ɛ-algorithm exist but without any connection with a theory of Padé-approximants. Also several definitions of the Padé-approximant to a multivariate function exist, but up till now without any connection with the ɛ-algorithm. In this paper, we see that the multivariate Padé-approximants introduced in [3], satisfy the same property as the univariate Padé-approximants: if we apply the ɛ-algorithm to the partial sums of the power series $$f\left( {x_1 ,...,x_n } \right) = \sum\limits_{i_1 + ... + i_n = 0}^\infty {c_{i_1 ...i_n } x_1^{i_1 } ...x_n^{i_n } } $$ then ε 2m (l−m) is the (l, m) multivariate Padé-approximant tof(x 1, ...,x n ).

    Notes: Summary In the present paper we study the existence, uniqueness and convergence of discrete cubic spline which interpolate to a given function at one interior point of each mesh interval. Our result in particular, includes the interpolation problems concerning continuous periodic cubic splines and discrete cubic splines with boundary conditions considered respectively in Meir and Sharma (1968) and Lyche (1976) for the case of equidistant knots.

    Notes: Summary It is shown explicitly that the Samelson inverse may be used to define vector-valued Thiele type rational interpolants, and the equivalence with Claessens' ε-algorithm is established. For the special case of vector valued Padé approximants, the general form of McCleod's theorem follows as a corollary.

    Notes: Summary In this paper, we show that the sequences of Padé-type approximants (k−1/k) and (k/k) converge to exp (−z), uniformly and geometrically on every compact subset of the plane. A numerical study has been done, which discriminates these sequences from the point of view ofA-acceptability.

This contrasts with previous results which use a twostage approach for the computation, one of which requires linear programming techniques. Computational results are given.

    Notes: Summary We deal with spline interpolants of odd degree on equidistant grids. The main interest is directed on cardinal and onn-periodic interpolation, wheren is odd. By the aid of an explicit representation of the interpolant by Euler-Frobenius-polynomials, we calculate the minimal constant occuring in the error estimate with the modulus of continuity.

This algorithm turns out to be similar to existing iteratively reweighted least squares algorithms, but can be shown to be globally andQ-superlinearly convergent.

    Notes: Summary We transform a complex approximation problem into an equivalent semiinfinite optimization problem whose constraints are described in terms of a quantity ϕ∈[0,2π[=I. We study the effect of disturbing the problem by replacingI by a compact subsetM⊂I which includes as special case the discrete case whereM consists only of finitely many points. We introduce a measure ɛ for the deviation ofM fromI and show that in any complex approximation problem the minimal distance of the disturbed problem converges quadratically with ɛ→0 to the minimal distance of the undisturbed problem which is a generalization of a result by Streit and Nuttall. We also show that in a linear finite dimensional approximation problem the convergence of the coefficients of the disturbed problem is in general at most linear. There are some graphical representations of best complex approximations computed with the described method.

    Notes: Summary This paper deals with the problem of uniqueness in one-sidedL 1-approximation. The chief purpose is to characterize finite dimensional subspacesG of the space of continuous or differentiable functions which have a unique best one-sidedL 1-approximation. In addition, we study a related problem in moment theory. These considerations have an important application to the uniqueness of quadrature formulae of highest possible degree of precision.

    Notes: Summary A Remez type algorithm for computing best spline approximations of degreen withk fixed knots is developed. It is shown that the sequence constructed in the algorithm converges to a best approximation, ifk≦n+1, and at least to a nearly best approximation, ifk〉n+1. In contrast to the standard interpolation methods no restriction to the position of the knots is required. This fact may be important to treat approximation problems for splines with free knots.

    Notes: Summary It is well-known that interpolation using polynomial splines is possible if and only if the points of interpolation are appropriately interlaced with the knots. The main result of this paper is a complete characterization of exactly which generalized spline spaces have a similar kind of interlacing property. Some examples of spline spaces which do not have the interlacing property are given. In addition, we identify some important special classes of generalized splines which do have the property.

    Notes: Summary The quotient-difference (QD) algorithm can be used to construct univariate Padé-approximants [1]. In this paper we see that it can also be used to construct the multivariate Padé-approximants introduced in [3], just by reformulating the quotient-difference algorithm as in Sect. 1. The multivariate Padé-approximants and the multivariate QD-scheme are treated in the Sects. 2 and 3 respectively. Thus for this type of multivariate Padé-approximants a link with the theory of multivariate continued fractions is established.

    Notes: Summary Strong uniqueness has proved to be an important condition in demonstrating the second order convergence of the generalised Gauss-Newton method for discrete nonlinear approximation problems [4]. Here we compare strong uniqueness with the multiplier condition which has also been used for this purpose. We describe strong uniqueness in terms of the local geometry of the unit ball and properties of the problem functions at the minimum point. When the norm is polyhedral we are able to give necessary and sufficient conditions for the second order convergence of the generalised Gauss-Newton algorithm.

    Notes: Summary Padé approximants are a frequently used tool for the solution of mathematical problems. One of the main drawbacks of their use for multivariate functions is the calculation of the derivatives off(x 1, ...,x p ). Therefore multivariate Newton-Padé approximants are introduced; their computation will only use the value off at some points. In Sect. 1 we shall repeat the univariate Newton-Padé approximation problem which is a rational Hermite interpolation problem. In Sect. 2 we sketch some problems that can arise when dealing with multivariate interpolation. In Sect. 3 we define multivariate divided differences and prove some lemmas that will be useful tools for the introduction of multivariate Newton-Padé approximants in Sect. 4. A numerical example is given in Sect. 5, together with the proof that forp=1 the classical Newton-Padé approximants for a univariate function are obtained.

    Notes: Summary For oddm, the error of them-th-degree spline interpolant of power growth on an equidistant grid is estimated. The method is based on a decomposition formula for the spline function, which locally can be represented as an interpolation polynomial of degreem which is corrected by an (m+1)-st.-order difference term.

    Notes: Summary A modification of the Thacher-Tukey algorithm for rational interpolation is proposed. The method employed demonstrates the reliability of the proposed algorithm as well as the reliability of the Thacher-Tukey algorithm. Furthermore, the proposed algorithm eliminates almost all the array storage space required to implement the Thacher-Tukey algorithm.

    Notes: Summary This paper deals with an algorithmic approach to the Hermite-Birkhoff-(HB)interpolation problem. More precisely, we will show that Newton's classical formula for interpolation by algebraic polynomials naturally extends to HB-interpolation. Hence almost all reasons which make Newton's method superior to just solving the system of linear equations associated with the interpolation problem may be repeated. Let us emphasize just two: Newton's formula being a biorthogonal expansion has a well known permanence property when the system of interpolation conditions grows. From Newton's formula by an elementary argument due to Cauchy an important representation of the interpolation error can be derived. All of the above extends to HB-interpolation with respect to canonical complete Čebyšev-systems and naturally associated differential operators [7]. A numerical example is given.

    Notes: Summary A special case of a generalization of the Richardson extrapolation process is considered, and its complete solution is given in closed form. Using this, an algorithm for implementing the extrapolation is devised. It is shown that this algorithm needs a very small amount of arithmetic operations and very little storage. Convergence and stability properties for some cases are also considered.

    Notes: Summary The problem of finding optimal cycles in a doubly weighted directed graph (Problem A) is closely related to the problem of approximating bivariate functions by the sum of two univariate functions with respect to the supremum norm (Problem B). The close relationship between Problem A and Problem B is detected by the characterization (7.4) of the distance dist (f, t) of Problem B. In Part 1 we construct an algorithm for Problem A where the essential role is played by the minimal lengthsy j(k) defined by (2.3). If weight functiont≡1 then the minimum of Problem A is computed by equality (2.4). Ift≡1 then the minimum is obtained by a binary search procedure, Algorithm 3. In Part 2 we construct our algorithms for solving Problem B by following exactly the ideas of Part 1. By Algorithm 4 we compute the minimal pseudolengthsh k(y, M) defined by (7.5). If weight functiont≡1 then the infimum dist(f,t) of Problem B is obtained by equality (7.12) which is closely related to (2.4). Ift≢1 we compute the infimum dist(f,t) by the binary search procedure Algorithm 5. Additionally, Algorithm 4 leads to a constructive proof of the existence of continuous optimal solutions of Problem B (see Theorem 7.1e) which is already known in caset≡1 but unknown in caset≢1. Interesting applications to the steady-state behaviour of industrial processes with interference (Sect. 3) and the solution of integral equations (Problem C) are included.

    Notes: Summary In this paper we consider rational interpolation for an Hermite Problem, i.e. prescribed values of functionf and its derivatives. The algorithm presented here computes a solutionp/q of the linearized equationsp−fq=0 in form of a generalized continued fraction. Numeratorp and denominatorq of the solution attain minimal degree compatible with the linearized problem. The main advantage of this algorithm lies in the fact that accidental zeros of denominator calculated during the algorithm cannot lead to an unexpected stop of the algorithm. Unattainable points are characterized.

    Notes: Summary The problem of the numerical approximation of multivariable functions has been solved by the Monte Carlo method when the data points are assumed to be given on discrete lattice points [5, 8, 2]. When the data points are randomly distributed and very numerous there are some results in the literature [3, 6] but if the number of the points is less than 2 k , wherek is the dimension of the space, it is very difficult to develop approximation formulas. This paper gives a solution to this problem by local approximations.

    Notes: Summary In this paper the problem is investigated of how to take the (possibly noninteger) multiplicity of zeros into account in the Haar condition for a linear function space on a given interval. Therefore, a distinction is made between regular and singular points of the interval, and a notion of geometric multiplicity, which always is a positive integer, is introduced. It is pointed out that, for regular zeros (i.e., zeros situate at regular points), aq-fold zero (in the sense that its geometric multiplicity equalsq), counts forq distinct zeros in the Haar condition. For singular zeros (i.e., zeros situated at singular points), this geometric multiplicity has to be diminished by some well-determinable integer.

    Notes: We study an elastic body comprising an inclusion whose thickness is 2∊ and for which Lamé's constants are λ∊ and μ. We are interested in the limit behaviour of the inclusion, when ∊ → 0 and μ∊ → ∊; that is when the inclusion becomes thiner and more rigid. Different behaviours are possible, according to the rate at which μ∊ converges to infinity; the limit inclusion may “vanish” if it is not very rigid, but also it may be entirely solid.

    Notes: Spherical spline functions are introduced by use of Green's surface functions with respect to the (Laplace-)Beltrami operator of the (unit) sphere. Natural (spherical) spline functions are used to interpolate data discretely given on the sphere. A method is presented that allows the smoothing of irregularities in measured values or experimental data. Extensions of Peano's theorem and Sard's theory of best approximation to the spherical case are given by integral formulas. Schoenberg's theorem is transcribed into spherical nomenclature.

    Notes: The generalized Feller equation is a linear, autonomous, parabolic equation of a positive space variable and a time variable. Its coefficients are power functions of the space variable, and they depend on four parameters. In general, the equation is singular at the origin and at infinity. It contains as special cases the special Feller equation, the Kepinski equation, and the standard heat equation. The main objective of the present paper is to establish series expansions of solutions of the generalized Feller equation in terms of the elements of two sequences of particular solutions. The elements of one of these sequences are particular initial condition solutions. The two sequences are biorthogonal. The main result is that a solution does have the desired expansion property if and only if it has the Huygens property in some neighborhood of the origin of the time variable.

    Notes: The problem of stress determination in the area of cut-outs in circular cylindrical shells at given loads is of great interest in industrial practice. This work deals with a mixed boundary value problem of a differential equation derived according to the theory of shallow shells. On part Ct1 of the boundary, the displacements are given, whereas the stresses are specified on the remaining part Ct2. Starting from the Betti-Maxwell principle and with the aid of the fundamental solutions for unit loads and unit displacements, integral representations can be derived for the displacement functions as well as the stress functions.The problem is then transformed into an equivalent system of Fredholm integral equations of the first kind with logarithmic kernels as the main part. As the integral equations together with the auxiliary conditions form a strongly elliptical system of pseudo-differential operators, the Galerkin method converges. Assuming that curves Ct1 and Ct1 do not have points of intersection and that the data are sufficiently regular, the required functions are approximated by cubic splines and, for simplicity's sake, the integral equation system is solved by approximation with a collocation method. In view of the complicated terms of the kernel functions, the kernels are split into a regular and a singular part, the regular part being in turn replaced by cubic splines. The remaining integrations are done numerically by means of Gaussian quadrature formulae. The applicability of the method is demonstrated with the example of a cylinder under internal pressure.

    Notes: In this paper the three-dimensional perturbation flow induced by a rotating and oscillating blade row which operates in a subsonic flow in axial direction of an annular channel is studied. The velocity potential is reduced to the infinite Hilbert space vector of Fourier coefficients of an eigen-function expansion with respect to vanishing normal derivatives on both cylinder walls. These coefficients satisfy an infinite set of ordinary differential equations of second order after an application of a one-dimensional Fourier transform in axial direction.Several canonical two-part mixed boundary value problems are then investigated by reduction to “infinite two-by-two-Wiener-Hopf functional systems”. In case of strong factorizability of certain matrix-operator-valued functions on the line these systems may be solved explicitely. Criteria for the factorization are not given here.

    Notes: In the paper a boundary value problem is studied for the equation of mixed typek(y)uxx + uyy + r(x, y)u = f(x, y) in the rectangular domain {(x, y)| -1 〈 x 〈 +1, yc 〈 y 〈 yH} with yc 〈 0, yH 〉 0, k(y) = sign y|y|m, m 〉 0 (and more generally for a function k = k(y) with k(O) = 0, k(y)y 〉 O for y ≠ O). Specific for the stated problem is that no data are prescribed on the line {(x, yc), -1 〈 x 〈 +1}. It is proved that the formulated problem is well-posed in the sense that there is at most one quasi-regular solution and that a generalized solution exists. The energy-integral-(abc-)method is used to show uniqueness and to obtain an apriori estimate for the solution of the adjoint problem whence the existence statement follows.

    Notes: A half-plane under plane wave excitation obeys a Dirichlet boundary condition on one side and a Neumann boundary condition on the other. These boundary conditions contrast the ones used by A. Sommerfeld in his classical paper. The present problem leads to a system of integral equations of the Wiener-Hopf type which may be solved by a matrix factoring method suggested by A. E. Heins in 1950.

    Notes: In this paper we give a review of the equipartition of energy results of Goldstein and Sandefur [3], [4], [5] as well as proving a new result in the case of a particular fourth order equation. These results are then applied to the equations of elasticity to give a weak asymptotic orthogonality for the shear and pressure waves. In the case of boundary value problems in the interior of a bounded domain we get weak asymptotic orthogonality in the average.

    Notes: The purpose of this paper is to introduce and study a new type of derivative - the variational gradient - for a functional on Cn[a, b]. Local and global versions of this concept are analyzed. This notion provides a natural approach to variational derivatives on Cn[a, b] under rather mild smoothness assumptions on the functional. When applied in the context of the Calculus of Variations, the notion of the variational gradient captures the natural boundary conditions (as well as the Euler-Lagrange equations) under weaker smoothness assumptions than those usually required using Gǎteaux variations.Conditions are established for the existence of the variational derivative and an integral representation for the Gǎteaux variation in terms of the variational derivative is derived. Conditions for the variational derivative to be differentiable are also established.

    Notes: In this paper we present new methods to solve the classical Dirichlet and Neumann problems for ΔU + k2U = 0. We prove that the solutions of this equation for a region S containing G restricted to G are dense in L2(∂G). Introducing a basis in the space of solutions for S we find a complete orthogonal system in L2(∂G) which can be used to solve the boundary value problems by means of approximation in the Hilbertspace norm. Regularity estimates lead to series expansions in G.The well-known basis systems obtained by separation of variables thus may be used for every regular region without the very special geometric restrictions. Another class of basis systems may be obtained in analogy to the Runge. theorems by considering types of singularity functions.

At the lowest approximation for small ∊ the solutions exhibit oscillations about the unique strictly positive equilibrium, much as in the case of the associated lumped parameter system. A two-times representation for solutions of small amplitudes is also given.

    Notes: We present two numerical methods for the solution of Hopf bifurcation problems involving ordinary differential equations. The first one consists in a discretization of the continuous problem by means of shooting or multiple shooting methods. Thus a finite-dimensional bifurcation problem of special structure is obtained. It may be treated by appropriate iterative algorithms. The second approach transforms the Hopf bifurcation problem into a regular nonlinear boundary value problem of higher dimension which depends on a perturbation parameter ∊. It has isolated solutions in the ∊-domain of interest, so that conventional discretization methods can be applied. We also consider a concrete Hopf bifurcation problem, a biological feedback inhibition control system. Both methods are applied to it successfully.

We show that, as the period tends to zero, the solution tends, in some sense, to the solution corresponding to the diffraction by an obstacle made of the classical “homogenized medium”. An analogous result is also proved for the scattering frequencies and the associated scattering functions.

    Notes: Atomistic equations of the electromagnetic field for a particle with spin are derived from a Lagrangian. These equations are consistent with the equations of motion for such a particle. The resulting phenomenological equations are the well-known equations of Maxwell for the electromagnetic field in matter. The atomistic field equations for a particle with spin and magnetic moment give a dipole field. This result and the corresponding quantum mechanics for a particle with spin are applied to compute the hyperfine structure of the hydrogen atom by perturbation theory.

    Notes: The paper is concerned with boundary singularities of weak solutions of boundary value problems governed by the biharmonic operator. The presence of angular corner points or points at which the type of boundary condition changes in general causes local singularities in the solution. For that case the general theory of V. A. Kondrat'ev provides a priori estimates in weighted Sobolev norms and asymptotic singular representations for the solution which essentially depend on the zeros of certain transcendental functions. The distribution of these zeros will be analysed in detail for the biharmonic operator under several boundary conditions. This leads to sharp a priori estimates in weighted Sobolev norms where the weight function is characterized by the inner angle of the boundary corner. Such estimates for “negative” Sobolev norms are used to analyse also weakly nonlinear perturbations of the biharmonic operator as, for instance, the von Kármán model in plate bending theory and the stream function formulation of the steady state Navier-Stokes problem. It turns out that here the structure of the corner singularities is essentially the same as in the corresponding linear problem.

    Notes: We consider the problem where a and f are 1-periodic in t, a is positive, f satisfies appropriate decreasing conditions; smoothness of a, f, ∂Ω is also assumed. Denote by λ0 the principal eigenvalue of Δ with zero Dirichlet boundary conditions, and define . We prove: (a) if ε ≤ 0, then no non-negative periodic solution exists but zero, and any solution with continuous non-negative initial datum converges to zero uniformly as t → ∞; (b) if ε 〉 0, then a unique non trivial non-negative 1-periodic solution u* exists, and any solution with continuous, non-negative not identically zero initial datum approaches uniformly u* as t → ∞.

In the model problems which we study, three cases arise: 1) f = 0, λ is given, 2) f = 0, λ is unknown and the length of the Free Boundary is given, 3) f ≠ 0, λ = 0 (Obstacle Problem).

    Notes: The treatment of certain electro- and magnetostatic boundary and transmission problems by boundary integral equations leads to parameter-dependent integral equations of the second kind. The integral operators involved have the property that the dimension of their nullspaces changes between two nonzero values (depending on the geometry of the problem) as the parameter tends to zero. We investigate the continuous dependence of solutions to these equations on the parameter. To this end, we treat the problem of continuous dependence of solutions to parameter-dependent linear operator equations of the second kind in a Banach space in the framework of generalized inverses.

    Notes: In this paper a simple mathematical model for the process of hemodialysis is presented. This model is based on a system of two linear differential equations of first order with partly discontinuous coefficients that describe the time-development of the concentrations of a certain toxin (like urea) in the intra- and extracellular part of the human body. The main result is the existence of periodic positive solutions of this system under the natural assumption that the generation of the toxin and its removal by hemodialysis are periodic processes. These periodic positive solutions are also computed numerically for a realistic choice of the coefficients of the modelling differential equations.

    Notes: The existence of a unique solution to Maxwell's equations defined in an exterior domain with impedance boundary condition is established for all frequencies. This is accomplished by reducing this problem to that of solving a system of singular integral equations and then regularizing this system such that the Riesz theory is applicable. We also consider the inverse problem in which it is desired to determine the impedance from a knowledge of the far field pattern. By restricting the impedance to lie a priori in a compact set results are obtained on the existence, uniqueness, and stability of the solution to this inverse scattering problem.

    Notes: In this paper we consider a string moving in its plane and subject to solid friction (Coulomb's law). It is known that when the time increases indefinitely the string reaches an equilibrium position and by analogy with the case of a mass point we ask if the equilibrium is reached after a finite time. We prove that this is the case when the string is initially at rest and 1. when the initial shape possesses a second derivative bounded by certain limits, or 2. when the initial shape is formed by two straight line segments. In the last section we obtain some partial results when the string is initially at rest in the shape of a polygonal line. The case of an arbitrary initial position is still an open problem.

    Notes: One considers an elastic halfspace with depth (x1) dependent density Q and Lamé moduli (λ,m̈). Impulsive stresses τli = δ(x2, x3)δ(t) for x1 = 0 are applied with displacement responses ui = gi(t, x2, x3) at x1 = 0 (i = 1, 2, 3). Let vi(t, x1) = ∫∫uidx2dx3 (i = 1, 2 is enough) and set w(t, x1) = ∫∫x2u1dx2dx3. One obtains a system of 3 differential equations for v1, v2, and w to which the spectral techniques of inverse scattering theory are applied as in [25]. The inverse problems for the uncoupled vi can then be solved to produce 2 functions A1 and A2 involving (Q, λ, μ) as functions of “bound” variables y1 and y2 containing (Q, λ, μ), between which a relation then is determined. Analysis of the coupled equation for w then leads to a Fredholm integral equation whose solution provides an additional relation between (Q, λ, μ) from which (Q, λ, μ) can be determined as functions of x1. The integral equation is reduced to a Volterra type equation by results and techniques of transmutation and then solved by a modification of standard techniques. A number of features and results of independent mathematical interest arise from the transmutation theory.

    Notes: The buckling of a beam or a plate which is subject to obstacles is typical for the variational inequalities that are considered here. Birfurcation is known to occur from the first eigenvalue of the linearized problem. For a discretization the bifurcation point and the bifurcating branches may be obtained by solving a constrained optimization problem. An algorithm is proposed and its convergence is proved. The buckling of a clamped beam subject to point obstacles is considered in the continuous case and some numerical results for this problem are presented.

Monotone sequences of functions which satisfy scalar equations are constructed so that they will converge to upper and lower bounds for the solutions of the systems. In case a related system has a unique positive solution, then these sequences will converge to the solution of the original system. Applications of the monotone sequences to uniqueness and stability are also given.

After a re-scaling of the spectral parameter, the problem b) reduces to an analogous problem, and we prove that, as ε → 0, infinitely many eigenvalues converge to 0 (which is an eigenvalue of infinite multiplicity of the corresponding inviscid acoustic problem).

    Notes: This paper is concerned with spline methods in a reproducing kernel Hilbert space consisting of functions defined and harmonic in the outer space of a regular surface (e.g. sphere, ellipsoid, telluroid, geoid, (regularized) earth's surface). Spline methods are used to solve interpolation and smoothing problems with respect to a (fundamental) system of linear functional giving information about earth's gravity field. Best approximations to linear functionals are discussed. The spline of interpolation is characterized as the spline of best approximation in the sense of an appropriate (energy) norm.

    Notes: We consider an unbounded, elastic non homogeneous material with periodic structure. It is shown that the solution of the equations of motion can be expanded in eigenfunctions of periodic operators. The Bloch expansion is used to prove that when the wave-length is long compared to the period of the structure (related to a small parameter ε), the first term of the exact solution expansion, in powers of ε, is the solution of the equations obtained in homogenization theory. The case of a long memory linear viscoelastic material is then studied.

We want to prove existence and multiplicity criteria for so called “slowly oscillating” periodic solutions of (A).The oddness condition is of course a rather restrictive one, but due to results of Nussbaum [9], [10] and Peters [13],[14] and numerical studies of Jürgens, Peitgen and Saupe [7] and Hadeler [6] we know that even for odd nonlinearities f (A) may display a complicated dynamical behaviour. On the other hand the oddness condition allows a classification of symmetry properties of periodic solutions of (A).

    Notes: As is well known the real Heisenberg nilpotent group A(R) constitutes the group-theoretic embodiment of the Heisenberg canonical commutation relations (CCR) of classical quantum mechanics. In this connection, quantum mechanics stands for the quantum-mechanical description, at a given instant of time, of a non-relativistic microparticle moving in the one-dimensional configuration space R and having the plane R2 as its (flat) phase space. In fact, the (nilpotent) Lie algebra n of Ã(R) reflects the Weyl equations which are global versions of the Heisenberg CCR. Unfortunately, the subject of Heisenberg nilpotent groups is outside quantum mechanics and all the more outside mathematical physics not as commonly known as it should be considering its wide range of applications in a variety of different fields. The present paper which has two parts aims to develop a central topic of nilpotent harmonic analysis, to wit, the microparticle model, the lattice model which will be realized on the Heisenberg compact nilmanifold, and the complex wave model (or Bargmann-Fock-Segal model) of the linear Schrödinger representation of Ã(R) in order to examine geometrically several applications which are governed by the real Heisenberg nilpotent group Ã(R). These applications are in Part I the classical Whittaker-Shannon sampling theorem which is of basic importance in signal processing, to wit, for the transmission of digital signals as well as analog signals, and in Part II the Subbotin-Schoenberg existence and uniqueness theorem of cardinal spline interpolation. Moreover, Part II indicates briefly some connections of the aforementioned models to the Wigner phase-space quasiprobability density function of quantum statistical mechanics via the Schwartz kernels theory on unimodular Lie groups, an approach to the cross- and autoambiguity functions of radar synthesis, and to the Zak transform of solid state physics. The second part also points out some relations of harmonic analysis of the finite nilpotent group A(Z/NZ) to periodic spline interpolants admitting N equidistant knots on the one-dimensional compact torus group T. These last examples should serve mainly as hints for some further lines of investigations in the field of applications of nilpotent harmonic analysis.

In a subsequent paper it will be shown that this irregular behavior of G(x,ζ,λ) implies that only a very small class of functions can be expanded into a series of eigenfunctions of such problems.

    Notes: The aim of this paper is to prove the existence and uniqueness of local solutions of some initial boundary value problems for the Euler equations of an incompressible fluid in a bounded domain Ω ⊂ R2 with corners. We consider two cases of a nonvanishing normal component of velocity on the boundary. In three-dimensional case such problems have been considered in papers [12], [13], [14]. Similar problems in domains without corners have been considered in [2]-[6], [11]. In this paper the relation between the maximal corner angle of the boundary and the smoothness of the solutions is shown. The paper consists of four sections. In section 1 two initial boundary value problems for the Euler equations are formulated. In section 2 the existence and uniqueness of solutions of the Laplace equation in twodimensional domain with corners for the Dirichlet and Neumann problems is proved in the Sobolev spaces. In sections 3 and 4 we prove the existence and uniqueness of solutions of problems formulated in section 1, using the method of successive approximations.

    Notes: The present paper is concerned with the study of retarded differential equations in n-space, which satisfy some monotonicity properties. Sufficient conditions are given guaranteeing that solutions are contained in the probability (n - 1)-simplex. Existence and uniqueness of constant solutions are proved. It is also shown that every solution converges to a constant as t → ∞.

    Notes: The plane transmission problem of the Helmholtz equation for quadrants is characterized by a one-dimensional singular integral equation, which refers to the Fourier transform of the normal derivative of the solution along the x-axis. It is derived by solving the transmission problem for the upper and the lower half-plane involving a Neumann condition at y = 0. This is done by a two-dimensional Laplace transform technique. The inverse Laplace transform with respect to the second cartesian coordinate and the restriction of this one to y = 0 then lead to the integral equation. Thereby the transmission conditions of the original problem at y = 0 have to be taken into account. The resulting integral equation is of generalized Wiener-Hopf-type. It is solved via the contraction theorem imposing restricting conditions on the wave numbers.

    Notes: The delta function initial condition solution v*(x,t;y) at x = y ≥ 0 of the generalized Feller equation is used to define a generalized Jacobi Theta function \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$ \Theta (x,t) = \upsilon *(x,t;0) + 2\sum\limits_{n = 1}^\infty {v*(x,t;y_n)} $\end{document} for a sufficiently rapidly increasing and unbounded positive sequence {yy}. It is shown that Θ(x,t) is analytic in each variable in certain regions of the complex x and t planes and that it is a solution of the generalized Feller equation. For those parameters for which this equation reduces to the heat equation, Θ(x,t) reduces to the third Jacobi Theta function.

    Notes: In many areas of applied mathematics, the govering equations can be expressed as dual equations which are elements in two vector spaces where a given functional defined on a cartesian product space has zero gradients. If this functional has a global saddle structure then the variational principle can be replaced by dual extremum principles of the Noble and Sewell type. The purpose of the present paper is to investigate how comparison functional which have convex, concave or saddle structure can be used to generate upper and lower bounding principles and critical sequences. The methods are illustrated by applications to the periodic solutions of a non-linear differential equation and the Fredholm integral equation.

    Notes: In this paper we are concerned with the development of criteria for stabilizing inherently unstable initial-boundary value problems under small errors in the geometry of the underlying domain. We consider in particular the initial-boundary-value problem for the backward heat equation assuming that some error has been made in characterizing the geometry of the domain under consideration. It is shown that solutions which belong to an appropriately defined constraint set depend continuously in L2 on errors in the geometry.

    Notes: Transmutation methods are developed for equations of the form x2 ϕ“ + x2(k2” - q̃(x)) ϕ = (v2 - (1/4)) ϕ, with v as spectral variable, which correspond to problems in quantum scattering theory at fixed energy k2 (here v ˜ l + (1/2) with l complex angular momentum). Spectral formulas for transmutation kernels are constructed and the machinery of transmutation theory developed by the author for spectral variable k is shown to have a version here. General Kontrorovič-Lebedev theorems are also proved.
