Tests of General Relativity with GW170817
2019
The recent discovery by Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo of a gravitational wave signal from a binary neutron star inspiral has enabled tests of general relativity (GR) with this new type of source. This source, for the first time, permits tests of strong-field dynamics of compact binaries in presence of matter. In this paper, we place constraints on the dipole radiation and possible deviations from GR in the post-Newtonian coefficients that govern the inspiral regime. Bounds on modified dispersion of gravitational waves are obtained; in combination with information from the observed electromagnetic counterpart we can also constrain effects due to large extra dimensions. Finally, the polari…
A note on rank 2 diagonals
2020
<p>We solve two questions regarding spaces with a (G<sub>δ</sub>)-diagonal of rank 2. One is a question of Basile, Bella and Ridderbos about weakly Lindelöf spaces with a G<sub>δ</sub>-diagonal of rank 2 and the other is a question of Arhangel’skii and Bella asking whether every space with a diagonal of rank 2 and cellularity continuum has cardinality at most continuum.</p>
Diffusion stabilizes cavity solitons in bidirectional lasers
2009
We study the influence of field diffusion on the spatial localized structures (cavity solitons) recently predicted in bidirectional lasers. We find twofold positive role of the diffusion: 1) it increases the stability range of the individual (isolated) solitons; 2) it reduces the long-range interaction between the cavity solitons. Latter allows the independent manipulation (writing and erasing) of individual cavity solitons.
On the existence of weak solution to the coupled fluid-structure interaction problem for non-Newtonian shear-dependent fluid
2016
We study the existence of weak solution for unsteady fluid-structure interaction problem for shear-thickening flow. The time dependent domain has at one part a flexible elastic wall. The evolution of fluid domain is governed by the generalized string equation with action of the fluid forces. The power-law viscosity model is applied to describe shear-dependent non-Newtonian fluids.
Long-Lasting Cranial Nerve III Palsy as a Presenting Feature of Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy
2015
We describe a patient with chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP) in which an adduction deficit and ptosis in the left eye presented several years before the polyneuropathy. A 52-year-old man presented with a 14-year history of unremitting diplopia, adduction deficit, and ptosis in the left eye. At the age of 45 a mild bilateral foot drop and impaired sensation in the four limbs appeared, with these symptoms showing a progressive course. The diagnostic workup included EMG/ENG which demonstrated reduced conduction velocity with bilateral and symmetrical sensory and motor involvement. Cerebrospinal fluid studies revealed a cytoalbuminologic dissociation. A prolonged treatmen…
Nonlinear elliptic equations having a gradient term with natural growth
2006
Abstract In this paper, we study a class of nonlinear elliptic Dirichlet problems whose simplest model example is: (1) { − Δ p u = g ( u ) | ∇ u | p + f , in Ω , u = 0 , on ∂ Ω . Here Ω is a bounded open set in R N ( N ⩾ 2 ), Δ p denotes the so-called p-Laplace operator ( p > 1 ) and g is a continuous real function. Given f ∈ L m ( Ω ) ( m > 1 ), we study under which growth conditions on g problem (1) admits a solution. If m ⩾ N / p , we prove that there exists a solution under assumption (3) (see below), and that it is bounded when m > N p ; while if 1 m N / p and g satisfies the condition (4) below, we prove the existence of an unbounded generalized solution. Note that no smallness condit…
A non-homogeneous elliptic problem dealing with the level set formulation of the inverse mean curvature flow
2015
Abstract In the present paper we study the Dirichlet problem for the equation − div ( D u | D u | ) + | D u | = f in an unbounded domain Ω ⊂ R N , where the datum f is bounded and nonnegative. We point out that the only hypothesis assumed on ∂Ω is that of being Lipschitz-continuous. This problem is the non-homogeneous extension of the level set formulation of the inverse mean curvature flow in a Euclidean space. We introduce a suitable concept of weak solution, for which we prove existence, uniqueness and a comparison principle.
Three solutions for a perturbed Dirichlet problem
2008
Abstract In this paper we prove the existence of at least three distinct solutions to the following perturbed Dirichlet problem: { − Δ u = f ( x , u ) + λ g ( x , u ) in Ω u = 0 on ∂ Ω , where Ω ⊂ R N is an open bounded set with smooth boundary ∂ Ω and λ ∈ R . Under very mild conditions on g and some assumptions on the behaviour of the potential of f at 0 and + ∞ , our result assures the existence of at least three distinct solutions to the above problem for λ small enough. Moreover such solutions belong to a ball of the space W 0 1 , 2 ( Ω ) centered in the origin and with radius not dependent on λ .
Weak Solutions for a (p(z), q(z))-Laplacian Dirichlet Problem
2020
We establish the existence of a nontrivial and nonnegative solution for a double phase Dirichlet problem driven by a (p(z); q(z))-Laplacian operator plus a potential term. Our approach is variational, but the reaction term f need not satisfy the usual in such cases Ambrosetti-Rabinowitz condition.
Common Fixed points for multivalued generalized contractions on partial metric spaces
2013
We establish some common fixed point results for multivalued mappings satisfying generalized contractive conditions on a complete partial metric space. The presented theorems extend some known results to partial metric spaces. We motivate our results by some given examples and an application for finding the solution of a functional equation arising in dynamic programming.
