We investigate the oscillatory chemical dynamics in a closed isothermal reaction system described by the reversible Lotka-Volterra model. This is a three-dimensional, dissipative, singular perturbation to the conservative Lotka-Volterra model, with the free energy serving as a global Lyapunov function. We will show that there is a natural distinction between oscillatory and non-oscillatory regi...

A method is used to solve the Fredholm-Volterra integral equation of the first kind in the space L2(Ω)×C(0,T ),Ω = {(x,y) : √ x2+y2 ≤ a}, z = 0, and T <∞. The kernel of the Fredholm integral term considered in the generalized potential form belongs to the class C([Ω]×[Ω]), while the kernel of Volterra integral term is a positive and continuous function that belongs to the class C[0,T ]. Also in...

The time-dependent Maxwell system is supplemented with the constitutive relations of linear bianisotropic media and is treated as a neutral integro-differential equation in a Hilbert space. By using the theory of abstract Volterra equations and strongly continuous semigroups we obtain general well-posedness results for the corresponding mathematical problem.

We present a new temporal approximation scheme for the boundary integral formulation of time-dependent scattering problems which can be combined with either collocation or Galerkin approximation in space. It uses the backward-in-time framework introduced in [P. J. Davies and D. B. Duncan, Convolution Spline Approximations of Volterra Integral Equations, www.mathstat. strath.ac.uk/research/repor...
