Conformal measures for multidimensional piecewise invertible maps
2001
Given a piecewise invertible map T:X\to X and a weight g:X\rightarrow\ ]0,\infty[ , a conformal measure \nu is a probability measure on X such that, for all measurable A\subset X with T:A\to TA invertible, \nu(TA)= \lambda \int_{A}\frac{1}{g}\ d\nu with a constant \lambda>0 . Such a measure is an essential tool for the study of equilibrium states. Assuming that the topological pressure of the boundary is small, that \log g has bounded distortion and an irreducibility condition, we build such a conformal measure.
The Liouville theorem and linear operators satisfying the maximum principle
2020
A result by Courr\`ege says that linear translation invariant operators satisfy the maximum principle if and only if they are of the form $\mathcal{L}=\mathcal{L}^{\sigma,b}+\mathcal{L}^\mu$ where $$ \mathcal{L}^{\sigma,b}[u](x)=\text{tr}(\sigma \sigma^{\texttt{T}} D^2u(x))+b\cdot Du(x) $$ and $$ \mathcal{L}^\mu[u](x)=\int \big(u(x+z)-u-z\cdot Du(x) \mathbf{1}_{|z| \leq 1}\big) \,\mathrm{d} \mu(z). $$ This class of operators coincides with the infinitesimal generators of L\'evy processes in probability theory. In this paper we give a complete characterization of the translation invariant operators of this form that satisfy the Liouville theorem: Bounded solutions $u$ of $\mathcal{L}[u]=0$ i…
On the number of solutions of a Duffing equation
1991
The exact number of solutions of a Duffing equation with small forcing term and homogeneous Neumann boundary conditions is given. Several bifurcation diagrams are shown.
A class of shear deformable isotropic elastic plates with parametrically variable warping shapes
2017
A homogeneous shear deformable isotropic elastic plate model is addressed in which the normal transverse fibers are allowed to rotate and to warp in a physically consistent manner specified by a fixed value of a real non-negative warping parameter ω. On letting ω vary continuously (at fixed load and boundary conditions), a continuous family of shear deformable plates Pω is generated, which spans from the Kirchhoff plate at the lower limit ω=0, to the Mindlin plate at the upper limit ω=∞; for ω=2, Pω identifies with the third-order Reddy plate. The boundary-value problem for the generic plate Pω is addressed in the case of quasi-static loads, for which a principle of minimum total potential …
Dimension estimates for the boundary of planar Sobolev extension domains
2020
We prove an asymptotically sharp dimension upper-bound for the boundary of bounded simply-connected planar Sobolev $W^{1,p}$-extension domains via the weak mean porosity of the boundary. The sharpness of our estimate is shown by examples.
Recent progress in electrical impedance tomography
2003
We consider the inverse problem of finding cavities within some body from electrostatic measurements on the boundary. By a cavity we understand any object with a different electrical conductivity from the background material of the body. We survey two algorithms for solving this inverse problem, namely the factorization method and a MUSIC-type algorithm. In particular, we present a number of numerical results to highlight the potential and the limitations of these two methods.
Fixed point theorems on ordered metric spaces and applications to nonlinear elastic beam equations
2012
In this paper, we establish certain fixed point theorems in metric spaces with a partial ordering. Presented theorems extend and generalize several existing results in the literature. As application, we use the fixed point theorems obtained in this paper to study existence and uniqueness of solutions for fourth-order two-point boundary value problems for elastic beam equations.
A boundary min-max principle as a tool for boundary element formulations
1991
Abstract A min-max principle for elastic solids, expressed in terms of the unknown boundary displacements and tractions, is presented. It is shown that its Euler-Lagrange equations coincide with the classical boundary integral equations for displacements and for tractions. This principle constitutes a suitable starting point for a symmetric sign-definite formulation of the boundary element method.
Norm estimates for operators from Hp to ℓq
2008
Abstract We give upper and lower estimates of the norm of a bounded linear operator from the Hardy space H p to l q in terms of the norm of the rows and the columns of its associated matrix in certain vector-valued sequence spaces.
