We present some results concerning the controllability of a quasi-linear parabolic equation (with linear principal part) in a bounded domain of RN with Dirichlet boundary conditions. We analyze the controllability problem with distributed controls (supported on a small open subset) and boundary controls (supported on a small part of the boundary). We prove that the system is null and approximat...

A motion of point vortices with periodic boundary conditions is studied by using Weierstrass zeta functions. Scattering and recoupling of a vortex pair by a third vortex becomes remarkable when the vortex density is large. Clustering of vortices with various initial conditions is quantitated by the L function used in point process theory in spatial ecology. It is shown that clustering persists ...

We consider a reaction-diffusion equation with Neumann boundary conditions and show that solutions to this problem may be obtained from a problem with periodic boundary conditions and equivariant under O(2) symmetry. We describe the solutions for Hopf bifurcation and mode interactions involving Hopf bifurcation, namely, steadystate/Hopf and Hopf/Hopf. Neumann boundary conditions constrain the s...

In this note we study the boundary conditions for the new massive gravity theory in asymptotically AdS3 spacetime. We find that the Brown-Henneaux boundary conditions are consistent with the new massive gravity for all any value of the mass parameter. At the critical point where the central charge vanishes, the conserved charges vanish, too. This confirms that the theory is trivial at the criti...

This article analyzes a nonlinear system of first-order difference equations with periodic and non-periodic boundary conditions. Some sufficient conditions are presented under which: potential solutions to the equations will satisfy certain a priori bounds; and the equations will admit at least one solution. The methods involve new dynamic inequalities and use of Brouwer degree theory. The new ...

In this manuscript, we consider the inverse problem for non self-adjoint Sturm--Liouville operator $-D^2+q$ with eigenparameter dependent boundary and discontinuity conditions inside a finite closed interval. We prove by defining a new Hilbert space and using spectral data of a kind, the potential function can be uniquely determined by a set of value of eigenfunctions at an interior point and p...

We present a sixth-order non-polynomial spline method for the solutions of two-point nonlinear boundary value problem u(4)+f(x,u)=0, u(a)=α1, u''(a)= α2, u(b)= β1,u''(b)= β2, in off step points. Numerical method of sixth-order with end conditions of the order 6 is derived. The convergence analysis of the method has been discussed. Numerical examples are presented to illustrate the applications ...

In this paper we develop magnetic induction conforming multiscale formulations for magnetoquasistatic problems involving periodic materials. The formulations are derived using the periodic homogenization theory and applied within a heterogeneous multiscale approach. Therefore the fine-scale problem is replaced by a macroscale problem defined on a coarse mesh that covers the entire domain and ma...

In this note we study the boundary conditions for the new massive gravity theory in asymptotically AdS3 spacetime. We find that the Brown-Henneaux boundary conditions are consistent with the new massive gravity for all any value of the mass parameter. At the critical point where the central charge vanishes, the conserved charges vanish, too. This provides further evidence that the theory may be...

In this manuscript, we study the inverse problem for non self-adjoint Sturm--Liouville operator $-D^2+q$ with eigenparameter dependent boundary and discontinuity conditions inside a finite closed interval. By defining  a new Hilbert space and  using its spectral data of a kind, it is shown that the potential function can be uniquely determined by part of a set of values of eigenfunctions at som...
