Some new fixed point theorems in Menger PM-spaces with application to Volterra type integral equation

2014

Abstract We establish some fixed point theorems by introducing two new classes of contractive mappings in Menger PM-spaces. First, we prove our results for an α - ψ -type contractive mapping and then for a generalized β -type contractive mapping. Some examples and an application to Volterra type integral equation are given to support the obtained results.

Controlled time integration for the numerical simulation of meteor radar reflections

2016

We model meteoroids entering the Earth[U+05F3]s atmosphere as objects surrounded by non-magnetized plasma, and consider efficient numerical simulation of radar reflections from meteors in the time domain. Instead of the widely used finite difference time domain method (FDTD), we use more generalized finite differences by applying the discrete exterior calculus (DEC) and non-uniform leapfrog-style time discretization. The computational domain is presented by convex polyhedral elements. The convergence of the time integration is accelerated by the exact controllability method. The numerical experiments show that our code is efficiently parallelized. The DEC approach is compared to the volume …

Alternative boundary integral equations for fracture mechanics in 2D anisotropic bodies

2017

An alternative dual boundary element formulation for generally anisotropic linear elastic twodimensional bodies is presented in this contribution. The formulation is based on the decomposition of the displacement field into the sum of a vector field satisfying the anisotropic Laplace equation and the gradient of the classic Airy stress function. By suitable manipulation of the integral representation of the anisotropic Laplace equation, a set of alternative integral equations is obtained, which can be used in combination with the displacement boundary integral equation for the solution of crack problems. Such boundary integral equations have the advantage of avoiding hyper-singular integral…

Regularity of the solution to a class of weakly singular fredholm integral equations of the second kind

1979

Continuity and differentiability properties of the solution to a class of Fredholm integral equations of the second kind with weakly singular kernel are derived. The equations studied in this paper arise from e.g. potential problems or problems of radiative equilibrium. Under reasonable assumptions it is proved that the solution possesses continuous derivatives in the interior of the interval of integration but may have mild singularities at the end-points.

Wavelet-like bases for thin-wire integral equations in electromagnetics

2005

AbstractIn this paper, wavelets are used in solving, by the method of moments, a modified version of the thin-wire electric field integral equation, in frequency domain. The time domain electromagnetic quantities, are obtained by using the inverse discrete fast Fourier transform. The retarded scalar electric and vector magnetic potentials are employed in order to obtain the integral formulation. The discretized model generated by applying the direct method of moments via point-matching procedure, results in a linear system with a dense matrix which have to be solved for each frequency of the Fourier spectrum of the time domain impressed source. Therefore, orthogonal wavelet-like basis trans…

A Method of Conversion of some Coefficient Inverse Parabolic Problems to a Unified Type of Integral-Differential Equation

2011

Coefficient inverse problems are reformulated to a unified integral differential equation. The presented method of conversion of the considered inverse problems to a unified Volterra integral-differential equation gives an opportunity to distribute the acquired results also to analogous inverse problems for non-linear parabolic equations of different types.

A fixed point theorem for G-monotone multivalued mapping with application to nonlinear integral equations

2017

We extend notion and theorem of [21] to the case of a multivalued mapping defined on a metric space endowed with a finite number of graphs. We also construct an example to show the generality of our result over existing results. Finally, we give an application to nonlinear integral equations

FREDHOLM THEORY FOR DEGENERATE PSEUDODIFFERENTIAL OPERATORS ON MANIFOLDS WITH FIBERED BOUNDARIES

2001

We consider the calculus Ψ*,* de(X, deΩ½) of double-edge pseudodifferential operators naturally associated to a compact manifold X whose boundary is the total space of a fibration. This fits into the setting of boundary fibration structures, and we discuss the corresponding geometric objects. We construct a scale of weighted double-edge Sobolev spaces on which double-edge pseudodifferential operators act as bounded operators, characterize the Fredholm elements in Ψ*,* de(X) by means of the invertibility of an appropriate symbol map, and describe a K-theoretical formula for the Fredholm index extending the Atiyah–Singer formula for closed manifolds. The algebra of operators of order (0, 0) i…

2010

AbstractWe prove that Fredholm composition operators acting on the uniform algebra H∞(BE) of bounded analytic functions on the open unit ball of a complex Banach space E with the approximation property are invertible and arise from analytic automorphisms of the ball.
