‎In this paper‎, ‎we introduce more general contractions called $varphi $-fixed‎ ‎point point for $(F,varphi‎ ,‎alpha )_{s}$ and $(F,varphi‎ ,‎alpha )_{s}$-‎weak contractions‎. ‎We prove the existence and uniqueness of $varphi $-‎fixed point point for $(F,varphi‎ ,‎alpha )_{s}$ and $(F,varphi‎ ,‎alpha‎‎)_{s}$-weak contractions in complete $b$-metric spaces‎. ‎Some examples are‎ ‎supplied to sup...

We are studying the problem of a stationary supersonic flow of an inviscid non-heat-conducting gas in thermodynamical equilibrium onto a planar infinite wedge. It is known that theoretically this problem has two solutions: the solution with a strong shock wave (when the velocity behind the front of the shock wave is subsonic) and the solution with a weak shock wave (when, generally speaking, th...

In this paper we study a finite volume approximation for the conservative formulation of multiple fragmentation models. We investigate the convergence of the numerical solutions towards a weak solution of the continuous problem by considering locally bounded kernels. The proof is based on the Dunford-Pettis theorem by using the weak L compactness method. The analysis of the method allows us to ...

Determining new protein structures from X-ray diffraction data at low resolution or with a weak anomalous signal is a difficult and often an impossible task. Here we propose a multivariate algorithm that simultaneously combines the structure determination steps. In tests on over 140 real data sets from the protein data bank, we show that this combined approach can automatically build models whe...

for a convex, coercive continuous Hamiltonian on closed Riemannian manifold M, we construct unique forward weak KAM solution of $$H(x,{d_x}u) = c(H)$$ by vanishing discount approach, where c(H) is the Mañé critical value. We also discuss dynamical significance such special solution.

The weak formulation of moving boundary problems with possibly vanishing specific heat, that is governed by parabolic and/or elliptic differential equations, is developed. The uniqueness of the resulting weak solution is then proved. This approach is used to obtain numerical solutions to some physical examples, which arise in electrochemical machining processes, and in saturated / unsaturated f...
