GLOBAL ENTROPY SOLUTIONS IN L∞ TO THE EULER EQUATIONS AND EULER-POISSON EQUATIONS FOR ISOTHERMAL FLUIDS WITH SPHERICAL SYMMETRY ∗ GUI-QIANG CHEN† AND TIAN-HONG LI† Abstract. We prove the existence of global entropy solutions in L∞ to the multidimensional Euler equations and Euler-Poisson equations for compressible isothermal fluids with spherically symmetric initial data that allows vacuum and ...

We povide new formulae for the wave operators in the context of the Friedrichs-Faddeev model. Continuity with respect to the energy of the scattering matrix and a few results on eigenfunctions corresponding to embedded eigenvalues are also derived.

We are concerned with the structure of the operator corresponding to the Lax–Friedrichs method. At first, the phenomenae which may arise by the naive use of the Lax–Friedrichs scheme are analyzed. In particular, it turns out that the correct definition of the method has to include the details of the discretization of the initial condition and the computational domain. Based on the results of th...

In this note, by A ⊂ B, I mean that A is contained in B, and it may be that A = B; usually I write this by A ⊆ B, but A ⊂ B fits with the usual notation for saying that an operator is an extension of another. In this note, unless we say otherwise H denotes a Hilbert space over C, and we do not presume H to be separable. We shall write the inner product 〈·, ·〉 on H as conjugate linear in the sec...

In this paper, we focus on the application and illustration of the approach developed in part I. This approach is found to be useful in the construction of stable and monotone central difference schemes for hyperbolic systems. A new modification of the central Lax–Friedrichs scheme is developed to be of second-order accuracy. The stability of several versions of the developed central scheme is ...

Necessary and sufficient stability criteria for Friedrichs' scheme and the modified Lax-Wendroff scheme with smooth coefficients are derived by means of Kreiss' Matrix Theorem and the first Stability Theorem of Lax and Nirenberg. In this note we derive necessary and sufficient stability criteria for Friedrichs' scheme and the modified Lax-Wendroff scheme [8] for the hyperbolic system n (1) ". =...
