چکیده

Let Ω be an open, simply connected, and bounded region in R, d ≥ 2, and assume its boundary ∂Ω is smooth. Consider solving an elliptic partial differential equation Lu = f over Ω with zero Dirichlet boundary values. The problem is converted to an equivalent elliptic problem over the unit ball B, and then a spectral method is given that uses a special polynomial basis. With sufficiently smooth problem parameters, the method is shown to have very fast convergence. Numerical examples illustrate exponential convergence.

Existence Results for a Dirichlet Quasilinear Elliptic Problem

In this paper, existence results of positive classical solutions for a class of second-order differential equations with the nonlinearity dependent on the derivative are established. The approach is based on variational methods.

Analytic solutions for the Stephen's inverse problem with local boundary conditions including Elliptic and hyperbolic equations

In this paper, two inverse problems of Stephen kind with local (Dirichlet) boundary conditions are investigated. In the first problem only a part of boundary is unknown and in the second problem, the whole of boundary is unknown. For the both of problems, at first, analytic expressions for unknown boundary are presented, then by using these analytic expressions for unknown boundaries and bounda...

A Spectral Method for the Eigenvalue Problem for Elliptic Equations

Let Ω be an open, simply connected, and bounded region in R, d ≥ 2, and assume its boundary ∂Ω is smooth. Consider solving the eigenvalue problem Lu = λu for an elliptic partial differential operator L over Ω with zero values for either Dirichlet or Neumann boundary conditions. We propose, analyze, and illustrate a ‘spectral method’ for solving numerically such an eigenvalue problem. This is an...

Existence of three solutions for a class of quasilinear elliptic systems involving the $p(x)$-Laplace operator

The aim of this paper is to obtain three weak solutions for the Dirichlet quasilinear elliptic systems on a bonded domain. Our technical approach is based on the general three critical points theorem obtained by Ricceri.

The spectral properties of differential operators with matrix coefficients on elliptic systems with boundary conditions

Let $$(Lv)(t)=sum^{n} _{i,j=1} (-1)^{j} d_{j} left( s^{2alpha}(t) b_{ij}(t) mu(t) d_{i}v(t)right),$$ be a non-selfadjoint differential operator on the Hilbert space $L_{2}(Omega)$ with Dirichlet-type boundary conditions. In continuing of papers [10-12], let the conditions made on the operator $ L$ be sufficiently more general than [11] and [12] as defined in Section $1$. In this paper, we estim...
