On positive reachability for diffusion equations∗
نویسنده
چکیده
Counterexamples are constructed for some plausible conjectures. Typical of these: as the Maximum Principle ensures that positive boundary data give a positive state at time T from 0 initial data, one might (plausibly, but falsely) conjecture that all positive terminal states should be approximately reachable in this way, i.e., subject to the requirement that the boundary data stays nonnegative.

Positivity-preserving nonstandard finite difference Schemes for simulation of advection-diffusion reaction equations
Systems in which reaction terms are coupled to diffusion and advection transports arise in a wide range of chemical engineering applications, physics, biology and environmental. In these cases, the components of the unknown can denote concentrations or population sizes which represent quantities and they need to remain positive. Classical finite difference schemes may produce numerical drawback...
متن کاملReachability/Observability Gramians and Balanced Realization of Periodic Descriptor Systems
In this paper necessary and sufficient conditions are derived for complete reachability and observability of periodic time-varying descriptor systems. Applying these conditions, the symmetric positive semi-definite reachability/observability Gramians are defined and can be shown to satisfy some projected generalized discrete-time periodic Lyapunov equations. We propose a numerical method for so...
متن کاملReachability and controllability of positive fractional-order discrete-time systems
In the paper the positive linear discrete-time noncommensurate fractional-order systems described by the state equations are considered. Definition and necessary and sufficient conditions for the positivity, reachability and controllability to zero are given and proven. The considerations are illustrated by a numerical example.
متن کاملSequential Monte Carlo simulation for the estimation of small reachability probabilities for stochastic hybrid systems
The problem of estimating the probability that a system reaches a given set within some time horizon is considered. Standard Monte Carlo methods for reachability probability estimation do not require specific assumptions on the system under consideration. However, they are computationally demanding when the probability to be estimated is small. An Interacting Particle System (IPS) approach has ...
متن کاملPositive Fractional Linear Systems
An overview of some recent published and unpublished results on positive fractional continuous-time and discrete-time linear systems is given. The first part of the paper is devoted to the positive continuous-time fractional systems. For those systems the solutions to the fractional state equations are proposed. Necessary and sufficient conditions for the positivity, reachability and stability ...
