On the Reflection Laws of Second Order Differential Equations in Two Independent Variables

چکیده
The main purpose of this paper is the study of the analytic continuation of solutions of elliptic differential equations in two independent variables across an analytic boundary on which they satisfy further analytic equations connecting the point of the boundary, the value of the solution and those of its first order partial derivatives. In its simplest form the problem is that of the continuation of a harmonic function of two variables x, y across a segment of the xaxis if on this segment an analytic relation holds between x, the given harmonic function u and its conjugate harmonic vy and the derivatives ux and uy. This case was the subject of [2] and of [7]. Here we shall complement the methods and results of [7] by discussing the special case of a linear boundary relation. We shall see that u can be extended as harmonic function into the mirror image of its domain D of definition provided D is simply connected. In other words: the general linear boundary condition and the boundary condition u = 0 do not differ with respect to the domain into which they permit the class of harmonic functions on D to be extended, they are "coextensive. " In this respect there is a fundamental difference between harmonic functions of two and of three variables. We shall furnish an example of a harmonic function of three variables which satisfies a linear boundary condition, even of constant coefficients, on a boundary plane, but which is not coextensive with the class of harmonic functions of the same domain of definition, but satisfying the condition w = 0 o n the boundary plane. The example is such as to permit the choice of the boundary condition in a manner to exclude an arbitrary point of the mirror image domain from the domain of analytic extension. This example illustrates, by exhibiting the breakdown of analogy of facts, the necessity of employing in the treatment of equations in two independent variables tools especially adapted to this case. We shall see that in essence the problem of analytic continuation of

Numerical solution of second-order stochastic differential equations with Gaussian random parameters
In this paper, we present the numerical solution of ordinary differential equations (or SDEs), from each order especially second-order with time-varying and Gaussian random coefficients. We indicate a complete analysis for second-order equations in special case of scalar linear second-order equations (damped harmonic oscillators with additive or multiplicative noises). Making stochastic differe...
متن کاملOn the Λ-equations for Matching Control Laws *
We discuss matching control laws for underactuated systems. We previously showed that this class of matching control laws is completely charactarized by a linear system of first order partial differential equations for one set of variables (λ) followed by a linear system of first order PDEs for the second set of variables (g, V). Here we derive a new first order system of partial differential e...
متن کاملTHE EFFECT OF PURE SHEAR ON THE REFLECTION OF PLANE WAVES AT THE BOUNDARY OF AN ELASTIC HALF-SPACE
This paper is concerned with the effect of pure shear on the reflection from a plane boundary of infinitesimal plane waves propagating in a half-space of incompressible isotropic elastic material. For a special class of constitutive laws it is shown that an incident plane harmonic wave propagating in the considered plane gives rise to a surface wave in addition to a reflected wave (with angle o...

In this paper, a new approach for solving the second order fuzzy differential equations (FDE) with fuzzy initial value, under strongly generalized H-differentiability is presented. Solving first order fuzzy differential equations by extending 1-cut solution of the original problem and solving fuzzy integro-differential equations has been investigated by some authors (see for example cite{darabi...
