The Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation with periodic boundary conditions is considered. The interaction of a periodic solitary wave (cnoidal wave) with high frequency radiation of finite energy (L-norm) is studied. It is proved that the interaction of low frequency component (cnoidal wave) and high frequency radiation is weak for finite time in the following sense: the radiation approximately sat...

In [2], two of the authors and W. Meeks found examples of translation-invariant, embedded minimal surfaces with an infinite number of topological ends. For each k > 0, a surfaceMk was constructed, which was invariant with respect to a translation parallel to the x3-axis, and under a rotation group of order k+ 1 around the x3-axis. The method of construction was generalized in [3] to obtain the ...

We investigate the dynamics of a flexible, elastic fibre, suspended in a fluid and subjected to a 3D shear flow. Simulations are performed using the “Immersed Boundary Method,” and are distinguished by their ability to capture the hydrodynamic interaction between the fluid and fibre, as well as the detailed structure of the individual fibres. Suspensions of flexible fibres are encountered in ma...

We present an alternative approach to higher derived homotopy structures induced by the ’basic perturbation lemma’. This approach is motivated by physical considerations and makes use of operads and their representations. As an application we prove that the BVF-complex controls the formal deformations of coisotropic submanifolds – at least locally or under assumptions on the topology of the coi...

in this work, by employing the krasnosel'skii fixed point theorem, we study the existence of positive solutions of a three-point boundary value problem for the following fourth-order differential equation begin{eqnarray*} left { begin{array}{ll} u^{(4)}(t) -f(t,u(t),u^{prime prime }(t))=0 hspace{1cm} 0 leq t leq 1, & u(0) = u(1)=0, hspace{1cm} alpha u^{prime prime }(0) - beta u^{prime prime...

In this paper, we investigate a singular perturbation problem including a fourth order O.D.E. with general linear boundary conditions. Firstly, we obtain the necessary conditions of solution of O.D.E. by making use of fundamental solution, then by compatibility of these conditions with boundary conditions, we determine that, for given perturbation problem, whether boundary layer is formed or not.
