A highly unstable initial value boundary value problem

Initial-Boundary Value Problem for Hyperbolic Equations

where Ji = 0 for x0 < 0. The problem is to find necessary and sufficient conditions on B(x, B) such that the initial-boundary value problem (1), (2), (3) is well-posed. Note that all theorems that a;re formulated below will also apply to the case when (1) is a general hyperbolic equation or a hyperbolic system of equations of arbitrary order provided that all components of the characteristic co...

Hidden Symmetry in a Kuramoto-Sivashinsky Initial-Boundary Value Problem

We investigate the bifurcation structure of the Kuramoto-Sivashinsky equation with homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions. Using hidden symmetry principles, based on an extended problem with periodic boundary conditions and O(2) symmetry, we show that the zero solution exhibits two kinds of pitchfork bifurcations: one that breaks the reflection symmetry of the system with Dirichlet boundary ...

An analytic solution for a non-local initial-boundary value problem including a partial differential equation with variable coefficients

‎This paper considers a non-local initial-boundary value problem containing a first order partial differential equation with variable coefficients‎. ‎At first‎, ‎the non-self-adjoint spectral problem is derived‎. ‎Then its adjoint problem is calculated‎. ‎After that‎, ‎for the adjoint problem the associated eigenvalues and the subsequent eigenfunctions are determined‎. ‎Finally the convergence ...

An Initial and Boundary Value Problem Modeling Fish-like Swimming

In this paper we consider an initial and boundary value problem modeling the self-propelled motion of solids in a bi-dimensional viscous incompressible uid. The self-propelling mechanism, consisting in appropriate deformations of the solids, is a simpli ed model for the propulsion mechanism of sh-like swimmers. The governing equations are composed of the Navier-Stokes equations for the uid, cou...
