In this paper we discuss stochastic di erential delay equations with Markovian switching. Such an equation can be regarded 9 as the result of several stochastic di erential delay equations switching from one to another according to the movement of a Markov chain. The aim of this paper is to investigate the stability in distribution of the equations. 11 c © 2003 Published by Elsevier Science B.V.

The problem of nding adapted solutions to systems of coupled linear forward-backward stochastic dierential equations (FBSDEs, for short) is investigated. A necessary condition of solvability leads to a reduction of general linear FBSDEs to a special one. By some ideas from controllability in control theory, using some functional analysis, we obtain a necessary and sucient condition for the solv...

This paper studies the application of interval analysis and consistency techniques to ordinary di erential equations. It presents a unifying framework to extend traditional numerical techniques to intervals. In particular, it shows how to extend explicit methods to intervals. The paper also took a fresh look at the traditional problems encountered by interval techniques and studied how consiste...

We present an AXIOM environment called JET for geometric computations with partial dierential equations within the framework of the jet bundle formalism. This comprises especially the completion of a given dierential equation to an involutive one according to the Cartan-Kuranishi Theorem and the setting up of the determining system for the generators of classical and non-classical Lie symmetrie...

The existence, uniqueness, and global exponential stability of traveling wave solutions of a class of nonlinear and nonlocal evolution equations are established. It is assumed that there are two stable equilibria so that a tr aveling wave is a solution that connects them. A basic assumption is the comparison principle: a smaller initial value produces a smaller solution. When applied to di eren...

Einstein's eld equations for spatially self-similar locally rotationally symmetric perfect uid models are investigated. The eld equations are rewritten as a rst order system of autonomous ordinary di erential equations. Dimensionless variables are chosen in such a way that the number of equations in the coupled system of di erential equations is reduced as far as possible. The system is subsequ...

We consider stochastic optimal control problems in Banach spaces, related to nonlinear controlled equations with dissipative non linearity. These problems are treated via the backward stochastic differential equations approach, that allows also to solve in mild sense Hamilton Jacobi Bellman equations in Banach spaces. We apply the results to controlled stochastic heat and wave equations with co...

Numerical simulation of uid ow in a hydrocarbon reservoir has to ac count for the presence of wells The pressure of a grid cell containing a well is di erent from the average pressure in that cell and di erent from the bottomhole pressure for the well Peaceman This paper presents a study of grid pressures obtained from the simulation of single phase ow through an isotropic porous medium using d...

Di€usion and convection coecients of the aerated ̄ow in a hydraulic jump are estimated in the framework of an optimal control problem. The speci®c gravity of air±water mixture is governed by a steady state convection di€usion partial di€erential equation. The governing equation includes the di€usion coecient and the convection coecient, which are taken as the control variables to minimize a ...

We are interested in modelling Darwinian evolution, resulting from the interplay of phenotypic variation and natural selection through ecological interactions. Our models are rooted in the microscopic, stochastic description of a population of discrete individuals characterized by one or several adaptive traits. The population is modelled as a stochastic point process whose generator captures t...
