It is known that the Laplace transform is frequently used to solve fractional-order differential equations. Unlike integer-order differential equations, fractional-order differential equations always lead to difficulties in calculating inversion of Laplace transforms. Motivated by finding an easy way to numerically solve the fractional-order differential equations, we investigated the validity ...

The François Massieu 1869 idea to derive some mechanical and thermal properties of physical systems from “Characteristic Functions”, was developed by Gibbs and Duhem in thermodynamics with the concept of potentials, and introduced by Poincaré in probability. This paper deals with generalization of this Characteristic Function concept by Jean-Louis Koszul in Mathematics and by Jean-Marie Souriau...

We are interested in the design of efficient geometric multigrid methods on hierarchical triangular grids for problems in two dimensions. Fourier analysis is a well-known useful tool in multigrid for the prediction of two-grid convergence rates which has been used mainly for rectangular–grids. This analysis can be extended straightforwardly to triangular grids by using an appropriate expression...

Let G denote a locally compact Hausdorff abelian group. Then a bounded linear operator T from L^2(G) into L^2(G) is a bounded multiplier operator if, under the Fourier transform on L^2(G ), for each function f in L^2(G), T(f) changes into a bounded function U times the Fourier transform of f. Then U is called the multiplier of T. An unbounded multiplier operator has a similar definition, but it...

We consider the Laplace transform as a Henstock-Kurzweil integral. We give conditions for the existence, continuity and differentiability of the Laplace transform. A Riemann-Lebesgue Lemma is given, and it is proved that the Laplace transform of a convolution is the pointwise product of Laplace transforms.

Pseudo-Laplace transform is an important notion from pseudo-analysis’ framework that is often used in dealing with differential or integral equation. The (⊕, ̄)-Laplace transform considered here is a generalization of the pseudo-Laplace transform based on a special class of generalized pseudo-operations that need not be commutative nor associative. This pseudo-Laplace type transform has been use...

In this paper, we apply the Laplace decomposition method to obtain a series solutions of the Burgers-Huxley and Burgers-Fisher equations. The technique is based on the application of Laplace transform to nonlinear partial differential equations. The method does not need linearization, weak nonlinearity assumptions or perturbation theory and the nonlinear terms can be easily handled by using the...

This paper introduces the general purpose Gaussian Transform, which aims at representing a generic symmetric distribution as an infinite mixture of Gaussian distributions. We start by the mathematical formulation of the problem and continue with the investigation of the conditions of existence of such a transform. Our analysis leads to the derivation of analytical and numerical tools for the co...
