In cylindrical volumes with C-periodic boundary conditions in the long direction, static quarks are confined even in the gluon plasma phase due to the presence of interfaces separating the three distinct high-temperature phases. An effective " string tension " is computed analytically using a dilute gas of interfaces. At Tc, the deconfined-deconfined interfaces are completely wet by the confine...

In this paper, we study sufficient conditions for existence and uniqueness of solutions of three point boundary vale problem for p-Laplacian fractional order differential equations. We use Schauder's fixed point theorem for existence of solutions and concavity of the operator for uniqueness of solution. We include some examples to show the applicability of our results.

In this paper, we prove the existence of solutions for impulsive fractional differential inclusions with anti-periodic boundary conditions by applying Bohnenblust-Karlin’s fixed point

The improved Boussinesq equation is studied in this paper. Control properties for this equation posed on a bounded interval are first considered. When the control acts through the Dirichlet boundary condition the linearized system is proved to be approximately but not spectrally controllable. In a second part, the equation is posed on the one-dimensional torus and distributed moving controls ar...

Available constraints on metamorphic reaction rates derived from the study of natural systems are similar to, or slightly lower than, the bulk strain rates measured in the same rocks. Here, we explore whether this apparent relationship is merely coincidence or due to a more fundamental mechanistic link between reaction and strain. Grain boundary migration accommodated dislocation creep (GBMDC) ...

This paper is concerned with the first crossing of an order statistic point process through general moving boundaries. Our purpose is to determine exact boundary crossing probabilities in both one and two boundary cases. Simple recursive methods are obtained that exploit an underlying algebraic structure of polynomial type. This structure is a direct consequence of the order statistic property....

In this paper, using the hyperbolic uniform spline of order 4 we develop the classes of methods for the numerical solution of second order boundary value problems (2VBP) with Dirichlet, Neumann and Cauchy types boundary conditions. The second derivativeis approximated by the three-point central difference scheme. The approximate results, obtained by the proposed method, confirm theconvergence o...
