    Notes: Abstract It has been shown previously that the Linear Complementarity Problem is stable when the defining matrix is positive semidefinite and when (locally) the set of solutions is nonempty and bounded. We enlarge the class of matrices for which this is true and also demonstrate how the boundedness condition leads to other stability type questions.

    Notes: Abstract Models for a single species that inhabits an environment that is spatially varying are presented. Simple necessary and sufficient conditions for stability, which are independent of the exact details of the dispersal process, are developed in the case of large diffusion rates. The results highlight the important stabilizing nature of diffusion in a spatially varying environment.

    Notes: Summary The major objective of this paper is to propose a new decomposition-aggregation framework for stability analysis of Lotka-Volterra equations employing the concept of vector Liapunov functions. Both the disjoint and the overlapping decompositions are introduced to increase flexibility in constructing Liapunov functions for the overall system. Our second objective is to consider the Lotka-Volterra equations under structural perturbations, and derive conditions under which a positive equilibrium is connectively stable. Both objectives of this paper are directed towards a better understanding of the intricate interplay between stability and complexity in the context of robustness of model ecosystems represented by Lotka-Volterra equations. Only stability of equilibria in models with constant parameters is considered here. Nonequilibrium analysis of models with nonlinear time-varying parameters is the subject of a companion paper.

    Notes: Summary A mathematical model describing the dynamics of a population consisting of several species is studied. The interactions in the population are assumed to be age-specific. Using an evolution equation approach, sufficient conditions for well-posedness in L 1 of the dynamics and for existence as well as for stability of equilibrium solutions are given.

    Notes: Abstract A detailed analysis of a general class of SIRS epidemic models is given. Sufficient conditions are derived which guarantee the global stability of the endemic equilibrium solution. Further conditions are found which ensure instability for the equilibrium. Finally, the dependence of the stability on the contact number and the ratio of the mean length of infection to the mean removed time is considered.

    Notes: Abstract A model for the sterile insect release method of pest control in which the target species is under predatory or parasitic regulation is analyzed. The equations are nondimensionalized and the rescaled parameters are interpreted. There are four types of equilibria, whose existence and stability depend on which of ten regions of parameter space contain the rescaled parameters, and in turn give minimal release rates to achieve eradication of the pest. In at least one region, Hopf bifurcation theory shows the existence of limit cycles, but they are found to be unstable. In addition, the optimal release rate to minimize a total cost functional for pest control by the sterile release method is studied. Both approaches show that when predation accounts for a large fraction of the natural deaths, the necessary release rate and total cost are higher than for weak predation. If the predators are removed without being replaced by any other source of mortality, the cost rises in all cases but rises much more dramatically for cases with strong predation. A definite danger of the sterile release method when some predatory control exists is that the predators are frequently driven extinct before the prey, so that the target species could explode to much higher levels and be more difficult to eradicate again after the sterile release is terminated.

    Notes: Abstract A discrete time genetics model is developed for populations that are undergoing selection due to infectious disease. It is assumed that the generation time of the host and infectious agent are non-synchronous and that only the host population is evolving. Two classes of epidemic processes are considered. The first class is for infectious agents that confer immunity following infection, while the second class is for those that do not confer immunity. The necessary and sufficient conditions are found in order for the disease to persist in a stable polymorphic host population. These conditions are shown to depend on the density of susceptibles, the selection coefficients, and the severity and class of the disease process.

    Notes: Abstract The global behaviour of a class of predator-prey systems, modelled by a pair of non-linear ordinary differential equations, under constant rate harvesting and/or stocking of both species, is presented. Theoretically possible structures and transitions are developed and validated by computer simulations. The results are presented as transition loci in the F-G (prey harvest rate-predator harvest rate) plane.

    Notes: Abstract A general predator-prey model is considered in which the predator population is assumed to have an age structure which significantly affects its fecundity. The model equations are derived from the general McKendrick equations for age structured populations. The existence, stability and destabilization of equilibria are studied as they depend on the prey's natural carrying capacity and the maturation periodm of the predator. The main result of the paper is that for a broad class of maturation functions positive equilibria are either unstable for smallm or are destabilized asm decreases to zero. This is in contrast to the usual rule of thumb that increasing (not decreasing) delays in growth rate responses cause instabilities.

    Notes: Abstract We consider a spatial population growth process which is described by a reaction-diffusion equation c(x)u t = (a 2(x)u x ) x +f(u), c(x) 〉0, a(x) 〉 0, defined on an interval [0, 1] of the spatial variable x. First we study the stability of nonconstant stationary solutions of this equation under Neumann boundary conditions. It is shown that any nonconstant stationary solution (if it exists) is unstable if a xx⩽0 for all xε[0, 1], and conversely ifa xx〉0 for some xε[0, 1], there exists a stable nonconstant stationary solution. Next we study the stability of stationary solutions under Dirichlet boundary conditions. We consider two types of stationary solutions, i.e., a solution u 0(x) which satisfies u 0 x≠0 for all xε[0, 1] (type I) and a solution u 0(x) which satisfies u 0x = 0 at two or more points in [0, 1] (type II). It is shown that any stationary solution of type I [type II] is stable [unstable] if a xx ⩾0 [a xx ⩽0] for all xε[0, 1]. Conversely, there exists an unstable [a stable] stationary solution of type I [type II] if a xx 〈0 [a xx 〉0] for some xε[0, 1].

    Notes: Abstract The Volterra-Lotka predator-prey equations are modified so that the predator's ability to utilize the prey varies in proportion to the average number of encounters between the two species in the past. The behavior of this adaptive system is then described in terms of three parameters — the carrying capacity of the prey, the relative death rate of the predator, and the predator's memoryspan. The most stable situation is shown to occur when the carrying capacity of the prey is large, the predator's death rate is close to zero, and the predator is able to adapt quickly to changing levels of prey density.

    Notes: Abstract Human stretch reflexes (SRs) are often too weak and ineffectual to provide adequate postural regulation or rhythmic movement boosting (e.g. in ankle pushoff at the end of stance phase in fast running). Recent improvements in methods of artificially enhancing skeletomotor responses, especially in therapeutic regimens, should not be widely employed until the clonus-resisting stability properties of SRs are better understood. We formulate an idealized linear servo model of a segmentally-mediated SR system which includes the often ignored electromechanical coupling delay. For typical closed-loop (delay/gain) ratios, the model is shown to be unstable for all values of loop gain when operating as a position servo, but maximally stable when operating as a velocity servo. We claim that the velocity servo or one of its nonlinear relatives is a better model for some well studied SRs than, e.g., Houk's stiff muscle hypothesis. We also present evidence that even feeble and quickly saturating monosynaptic postural servos are always unstable if operated as pure position regulators.

    Notes: Abstract Linear perturbation theory is used to examine the stability of steady-state distributions of marine phytoplankton in the presence of a mean current with shear. Solutions are obtained for the general initial-value problem and it is found that all distributions are asymptotically stable so long as the rate of shear is greater than the local production. On the other hand, the early time behavior indicates that the system can be altered, if accomplished soon enough, depending upon a relative combination of diffusion, advection and production. Quantitative assessments are made where data are available.

    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Biology , Mathematics
    Notes: Summary The time derivatives of prey and predator populations are assumed to satisfy a set of inequalities, instead of a precise differential equation, reflecting an uncertain environmental and/or lack of knowledge by the modeler. A system of differential equations is found whose solution gives the boundary of a persistent set, which is positive flow invariant for any system satisfying the inequalities. Conditions are given for the persistent set to be bounded away from both axes, which show that resonance effects cannot drive either predator or prey to extinction if that does not happen for an autonomous system satisfying the inequalities. In general predator-prey systems are more persistent when there is strong asymptotic stability, when there is correlation between prey and predator dynamics, when the effect of perturbations is density dependent, and are more persistent under perturbations of the prey than of the predator.

    Notes: Summary A cyclic, constant parameter epidemiological model is described for a closed population divided into susceptible, exposed and infectious classes. Distributed delays are introduced and the model is formulated as two coupled Volterra integral equations. The delays do not change the general nature of thresholds or asymptotic stability; in all cases considered the disease either dies out, or approaches an endemic steady state.

    Notes: Abstract The explicit function of the community matrix of a three dimensional Lotka-Volterra model is delineated by a set of necessary and sufficient conditions for a positive equilibrium to be asymptotically stable. In the special case that the community matrix is quasi weakly diagonally dominant, it is shown that a positive determinant for the community matrix is not only necessary but is also sufficient for stability. The results are specific to three dimensional models and do not extend to communities of dimension greater than three.

    Notes: Abstract This paper relates the stability properties of a class of delay-difference equations to those of an associated scalar difference equation. Simple but powerful conditions for testing global stability are presented which are independent of the length of the time delay involved. For models which do not have globally stable equilibria, estimates of stability regions are obtained. Some well known baleen whale models are used to illustrate the results.

    Notes: Summary Endemic infectious diseases for which infection confers permanent immunity are described by a system of nonlinear Volterra integral equations of convolution type. These constant-parameter models include vital dynamics (births and deaths), immunization and distributed infectious period. The models are shown to be well posed, the threshold criteria are determined and the asymptotic behavior is analysed. It is concluded that distributed delays do not change the thresholds and the asymptotic behaviors of the models.

    Notes: Abstract In this paper, global asymptotic stability of ecosystems of the generalized Volterra type $$dx_i /dt = x_i \left( {b_{i - } \mathop \sum \limits_{j = 1}^n a_{ij} x_j } \right),{\text{ }}i = 1,...,n,$$ is investigated. We obtain the conditions for the existence of a nonnegative and stable equilibrium point of the system by applying a result of linear complementarity theory. The results of this paper show that there exists a class of systems that do not have multiple domains of attractions. This class is defined in terms of the species interactions alone, and does not involve carrying capacities or species net birth rates.

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: In this paper we prove the existence and uniqueness of solutions of the leakage problem for the Euler equations in bounded domain Ω C R3 with corners π/n, n = 2, 3… We consider the case where the tangent components of the vorticity vector are given on the part S1 of the boundary where the fluid enters the domain. We prove the existence of an unique solution in the Sobolev space Wpl(Ω), for arbitrary natural l and p 〉 1.

    Notes: Introducing the concept of a supercontinuous operator, we obtain a general convergence theorem for Galerkin approximations. Under the stronger assumption that N is a monotone operator with N(0) = 0, we show norm convergence of the unique Galerkin approximations to the unique solution.

    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.

We prove uniqueness and existence theorems for the corresponding boundary value problems for the reduced wave equation with Dirichlet and Neumann data by employing integral equation methods.

    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.

The method is applied to a system of parabolic equations with nonlinear coupling on the boundary.

    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.

    Notes: Semilinear elliptic systems of partial differential equations related to ecology are studied, with Dirichlet boundary conditions. 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.

    Notes: We consider two vibration problems containing a small parameter → 0: a) Vibration of an elastic, slightly compressible body, and b) acoustic vibration of a slightly viscous compressible barotropic fluid in a vessel.The asymptotics of eigenvalues for problem a) is studied by using a uniformly convergent expansion of the stiff type. 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.

The theory applies to problems which do not satisfy an overdamping condition and yields a minimax characterization of eigenvalues. Applications to damped free vibrations of an elastic body are discussed.

    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.

    Notes: In this paper we are concerned with the differential delay equationFor odd and continuous nonlinearities f: R → R. 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.

    Notes: We prove asymptotic estimates for the Green's function of N-irregular eigenvalue problems My = λNγ with splitting boundary conditions.In contrast to the N-regular case the Green's function G(x,ζ,λ) grows exponentially for |λ| → ∞ if x 〉 ζ.These estimates are fundamental for the expansion of functions into a series of eigenfunctions of N-irregular eigenvalue problems. 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: We treat wave equations with “scalar nonlinearities” and demonstrate the connection between the bifurcation theory of an associated system of Hammerstein integral equations and the existence of periodic solutions of the nonlinear wave equation.

    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.

    Notes: Let F be a mapping from Rn+1 into Rn, x(t) be a parametrization for ∣t - t0 ∣ 〈 c, of a smooth solution branch of the equation F(x) = 0, A(t) be the jacobian (n + 1) associated to a standard continuation method used for computing the solution branch. We study for a class of singularities at x(t0) the behaviour, near t = t0, of the determinant of A(t).

    Notes: We study a modification of the Vlasov-Poisson equation, obtained by adding a diffusion term with respect to velocity. It describes, from a physical point of view, a plasma in thermal equilibrium, in a mean field limit situation. We find that the already known results concerning existence and uniqueness of the solutions for the ordinary Vlasov equation (constructive results and counterexamples) translate to our case.

    Notes: Approximation in least squares by Galerkin's method leads to a consideration of strongly minimal systems. Theorems are derived which permit the recognition of systems which are not strongly minimal from the characteristics of the elements themselves. Normalised systems cannot be strongly minimal without their eigenvalues being bounded above.Speared systems, which have desirable properties, are introduced and their main features determined. Convergence earmarks and error bounds are exposed.A new definition of stability, which is self-checking in a computation, is suggested and its attributes delineated.The extension of the theory to equations involving positive-definite operators is mentioned.

    Notes: This paper deals with the Neumann problem of the pre-Maxwell partial differential equations for a vector field v defined in a region G ⊂ R3. We approximate its uniquely determined solution (integrability conditions assumed) uniformly on G by explicitly computable particular integrals and linear combinations of vector fields with a “fundamental” sequence of points .
