Characterization of greedy bases in Banach spaces
2017
Abstract We shall present a new characterization of greedy bases and 1-greedy bases in terms of certain functionals defined using distances to one dimensional subspaces generated by the basis. We also introduce a new property that unifies the notions of unconditionality and democracy and allows us to recover a better dependence on the constants.
On boundaries of attractors in dynamical systems
2021
Abstract Fractal geometry is one of the beautiful and challenging branches of mathematics. Self similarity is an important property, exhibited by most of the fractals. Several forms of self similarity have been discussed in the literature. Iterated Function System (IFS) is a mathematical scheme to generate fractals. There are several variants of IFSs such as condensation IFS, countable IFS, etc. In this paper, certain properties of self similar sets, using the concept of boundary are discussed. The notion of boundaries like similarity boundary and dynamical boundary are extended to condensation IFSs. The relationships and measure theoretic properties of boundaries in dynamical systems are a…
Nonlinear concave-convex problems with indefinite weight
2021
We consider a parametric nonlinear Robin problem driven by the p-Laplacian and with a reaction having the competing effects of two terms. One is a parametric (Formula presented.) -sublinear term (concave nonlinearity) and the other is a (Formula presented.) -superlinear term (convex nonlinearity). We assume that the weight of the concave term is indefinite (that is, sign-changing). Using the Nehari method, we show that for all small values of the parameter (Formula presented.), the problem has at least two positive solutions and also we provide information about their regularity.
Recurrence relations for rational cubic methods I: The Halley method
1990
In this paper we present a system of a priori error bounds for the Halley method in Banach spaces. Our theorem supplies sufficient conditions on the initial point to ensure the convergence of Halley iterates, by means of a system of “recurrence relations”, analogous to those given for the Newton method by Kantorovich, improving previous results by Doring [4]. The error bounds presented are optimal for second degree polynomials. Other rational cubic methods, as the Chebyshev method, will be treated in a subsequent paper.
Numerical Investigations of an Implicit Leapfrog Time-Domain Meshless Method
2014
Numerical solution of partial differential equations governing time domain simulations in computational electromagnetics, is usually based on grid methods in space and on explicit schemes in time. A predefined grid in the problem domain and a stability step size restriction need. Recently, the authors have reformulated the meshless framework based on smoothed particle hydrodynamics, in order to be applied for time domain electromagnetic simulation. Despite the good spatial properties, the numerical explicit time integration introduces, also in a meshless context, a severe constraint. In this paper, at first, the stability condition is addressed in a general way by allowing the time step inc…
Exponential convergence andH-c multiquadric collocation method for partial differential equations
2003
The radial basis function (RBF) collocation method uses global shape functions to interpolate and collocatethe approximate solution of PDEs. It is a truly meshless method as compared to some of the so-calledmeshless or element-free finite element methods. For the multiquadric and Gaussian RBFs, there are twoways to make the solution converge—either by refining the mesh size
Non-reflecting boundary conditions for acoustic propagation in ducts with acoustic treatment and mean flow
2011
We consider a time-harmonic acoustic scattering problem in a 2D infinite waveguide with walls covered with an absorbing material, in the presence of a mean flow assumed uniform far from the source. To make this problem suitable for a finite element analysis, the infinite domain is truncated. This paper concerns the derivation of a non-reflecting boundary condition on the artificial boundary by means of a Dirichlet-to-Neumann (DtN) map based on a modal decomposition. Compared with the hard-walled guide case, several difficulties are raised by the presence of both the liner and the mean flow. In particular, acoustic modes are no longer orthogonal and behave asymptotically like the modes of a …
A velocity–diffusion method for a Lotka–Volterra system with nonlinear cross and self-diffusion
2009
The aim of this paper is to introduce a deterministic particle method for the solution of two strongly coupled reaction-diffusion equations. In these equations the diffusion is nonlinear because we consider the cross and self-diffusion effects. The reaction terms on which we focus are of the Lotka-Volterra type. Our treatment of the diffusion terms is a generalization of the idea, introduced in [P. Degond, F.-J. Mustieles, A deterministic approximation of diffusion equations using particles, SIAM J. Sci. Stat. Comput. 11 (1990) 293-310] for the linear diffusion, of interpreting Fick's law in a deterministic way as a prescription on the particle velocity. Time discretization is based on the …
The exponent for superalgebras with superinvolution
2018
Abstract Let A be a superalgebra with superinvolution over a field of characteristic zero and let c n ⁎ ( A ) , n = 1 , 2 , … , be its sequence of ⁎-codimensions. In [6] it was proved that such a sequence is exponentially bounded. In this paper we capture this exponential growth for finitely generated superalgebras with superinvolution A over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. We shall prove that lim n → ∞ c n ⁎ ( A ) n exists and it is an integer, denoted exp ⁎ ( A ) and called ⁎-exponent of A. Moreover, we shall characterize finitely generated superalgebras with superinvolution according to their ⁎-exponent.
Supratransmission-induced traveling breathers in long Josephson junctions
2022
The emergence of travelling sine-Gordon breathers due to the nonlinear supratransmission effect is theoretically studied in a long Josephson junction driven by suitable magnetic pulses, taking into account the presence of dissipation, a current bias, and a thermal noise source. The simulations clearly indicate that, depending on the pulse's shape and the values of the main system parameters, such a configuration can effectively yield breather excitations only. Furthermore, a nonmonotonic behavior of the breather-only generation probability is observed as a function of the noise intensity. Finally, the dynamics of the supratransmission-induced breathers is characterized by looking at quantit…
