Maximal subgroups of small index of finite almost simple groups
2022
We prove in this paper that a finite almost simple group $R$ with socle the non-abelian simple group $S$ possesses a conjugacy class of core-free maximal subgroups whose index coincides with the smallest index $\operatorname{l}(S)$ of a maximal group of $S$ or a conjugacy class of core-free maximal subgroups with a fixed index $v_S \leq {\operatorname{l}(S)^2}$, depending only on $S$. We show that the number of subgroups of the outer automorphism group of $S$ is bounded by $\log^3 {\operatorname{l}(S)}$ and $\operatorname{l}(S)^2 < |S|$.
Rational solutions to the KPI equation from particular polynomials
2022
Abstract We construct solutions to the Kadomtsev–Petviashvili equation (KPI) from particular polynomials. We obtain rational solutions written as a second spatial derivative of a logarithm of a determinant of order n . We obtain with this method an infinite hierarchy of rational solutions to the KPI equation. We give explicitly the expressions of these solutions for the first five orders.
The rate of multiplicity of the roots of nonlinear equations and its application to iterative methods
2015
Nonsimple roots of nonlinear equations present some challenges for classic iterative methods, such as instability or slow, if any, convergence. As a consequence, they require a greater computational cost, depending on the knowledge of the order of multiplicity of the roots. In this paper, we introduce dimensionless function, called rate of multiplicity, which estimates the order of multiplicity of the roots, as a dynamic global concept, in order to accelerate iterative processes. This rate works not only with integer but also fractional order of multiplicity and even with poles (negative order of multiplicity).

Some techniques for improving the resolution of finite difference component-wise WENO schemes for polydisperse sedimentation models
2014
Polydisperse sedimentation models can be described by a system of conservation laws for the concentration of each species of solids. Some of these models, as the Masliyah-Locket-Bassoon model, can be proven to be hyperbolic, but its full characteristic structure cannot be computed in closed form. Component-wise finite difference WENO schemes may be used in these cases, but these schemes suffer from an excessive diffusion and may present spurious oscillations near shocks. In this work we propose to use a flux-splitting that prescribes less numerical viscosity for component-wise finite difference WENO schemes. We compare this technique with others to alleviate the diffusion and oscillatory be…
Parallel finite element splitting-up method for parabolic problems
1991
An efficient method for solving parabolic systems is presented. The proposed method is based on the splitting-up principle in which the problem is reduced to a series of independent 1D problems. This enables it to be used with parallel processors. We can solve multidimensional problems by applying only the 1D method and consequently avoid the difficulties in constructing a finite element space for multidimensional problems. The method is suitable for general domains as well as rectangular domains. Every 1D subproblem is solved by applying cubic B-splines. Several numerical examples are presented.
A Posteriori Error Bounds for Approximations of the Oseen Problem and Applications to the Uzawa Iteration Algorithm
2014
Abstract. We derive computable bounds of deviations from the exact solution of the stationary Oseen problem. They are applied to approximations generated by the Uzawa iteration method. Also, we derive an advanced form of the estimate, which takes into account approximation errors arising due to discretization of the boundary value problem, generated by the main step of the Uzawa method. Numerical tests confirm our theoretical results and show practical applicability of the estimates.

On regularity up to the boundary of solutions to a system of degenerate nonlinear elliptic fourth-order equations
2008
Under some hypotheses on weighted functions, using the interior regularity results established in (Kovalevsky, A. and Nicolosi, F., 2005, Existence and regularity of solutions to a system of degenerate nonlinear fourth-order equations. Nonlinear Analysis, 61, 281–307) and estimating the oscillation of solutions near the boundary of Ω, we establish results on regularity up to the boundary of a solutions of the system (1.1).
