Boundary Value Problems for the Three-Dimensional Helmholtz Equation in the Unbounded Octant, Square and Half Space

At present, the results of the study of boundary value problems for the two-dimensional Helmholtz equation with one and two singular coefficients are known. In the presence of two positive singular coefficients in the two-dimensional Helmholtz equation, explicit solutions of the Dirichlet, Neumann and Dirichlet-Neumann problems in a quarter plane are expressed through a confluent hypergeometric function of two variables. The established properties of the confluent hypergeometric function of two variables allow us to prove the theorem of uniqueness and existence of a solution to the problems posed.In this paper, we study the Dirichlet, Neumann, and Dirichlet-Neumann problems for the three-dimensional Helmholtz equation at zero values of singular coefficients in an octant, a quarter of space, and a half-space. Uniqueness and existence theorems are proved under certain restrictions on the data. The uniqueness of solutions of which is proved using the extremum principle for elliptic equations. Using the known fundamental (singular) solution of the Helmholtz equation, solutions to the problems under study are written out in explicit forms.

Solution of boundary value problems for the heat equation with a piecewise constant coefficient using the Fourier method

This paper considers some initial boundary value problems for the heat equation in a bounded segment with a piecewise constant coefficient. Using the method of separation of variables, the problem under consideration is reduced to a spectral problem and eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the resulting spectral problem are found. It is shown that the system of eigenfunctions forms a Riesz basis. Next, we prove a theorem on the existence and uniqueness of solutions to the initial-boundary value problems under consideration.

Determination of the Thermal Conductivity and Volumetric Heat Capacity of Substance from Heat Flux

The study of nonlinear problems related to heat transfer in a substance is of great practical important. Earlier, this paper’s authors proposed an effective algorithm for determining the volumetric heat capacity and thermal conductivity of a substance based on experimental observations of the dynamics of the temperature field in the object. In this paper, the problem of simultaneous identification of temperature-dependent volumetric heat capacity and thermal conductivity of the substance under study from the heat flux at the boundary of the domain is investigated. The consideration is based on the first boundary value problem for a one-dimensional unsteady heat equation. The coefficient inverse problem under consideration is reduced to a variational problem, which is solved by gradient methods based on the application of fast automatic differentiation. The uniqueness of the solution of the inverse problem is investigated.

Randomized vector algorithm with iterative refinement for solving boundary integral equations

Abstract This study is a follow-up of two our papers (Appl. Math. Lett. 126 (2022) and MCMA 29:4 (2023)), where we developed a vector randomized algorithms with iterative refinement for large system of linear algebraic equations. We focus in this paper on the application of the vector randomized iterative refinement algorithm to boundary integral equations that solve interior Dirichlet and exterior Neumann boundary value problems for 2D Laplace equation.

Domain sampling methods for an inverse boundary value problem of the heat equation

Abstract We investigate the reconstruction of an unknown cavity inside a heat conductor with only single boundary measurement, which is a typical non-destructive testing of defects in material science using thermography. Mathematically, it can be formulated as an inverse boundary value problem for the heat equation. Two domain sampling methods, i.e. the range test (RT) and no-response test (NRT), are developed to realize the reconstruction. We first justify the convergence of the RT, which is based on the analytical extension property of solutions to the heat equation. Then we prove the duality of the RT and NRT by looking at the relation between their indicator functions. Consequently, the unknown cavity can be reconstructed by using either the RT or NRT if the solution associated to the single measurement cannot be analytically extended across its boundary. Next, we design two efficient algorithms for the RT and NRT to reconstruct the unknown cavity numerically. Each algorithm consists of two steps. The first step is to determine an approximation of the unknown cavity by implementing the sampling methods in a coarse grid, while the second step is to improve the reconstruction by using a fine grid in the approximate domain. The numerical results suggest that both algorithms can generate some rough information on the cavity with only one boundary measurement. Finally, by using this information as an initial guess for Newton’s method, we improve the accuracy of the mentioned reconstruction results.

Qualitative analysis of fourth-order hyperbolic equations

We investigate the qualitative properties of weak solutions to the boundary value problems for fourth-order linear hyperbolic equations with constant coefficients in a plane bounded domain convex with respect to characteristics. Our main scope is to prove some analog of the maximum principle, solvability, uniqueness and regularity results for weak solutions of initial and boundary value problems in the space L2. The main novelty of this paper is to establish some analog of the maximum principle for fourth-order hyperbolic equations. This question is very important due to natural physical interpretation and helps to establish the qualitative properties for solutions (uniqueness and existence results for weak solutions). The challenge to prove the maximum principle for weak solutions remains more complicated and at that time becomes more interesting in the case of fourth-order hyperbolic equations, especially, in the case of non-classical boundary value problems with data of weak regularity. Unlike second-order equations, qualitative analysis of solutions to fourth-order equations is not a trivial problem, since not only a solution is involved in boundary or initial conditions, but also its high- order derivatives. Other difficulty concerns the concept of weak solution of the boundary value problems with L2 – data. Such solutions do not have usual traces, thus, we have to use a special notion for traces to poss correctly the boundary value problems. This notion is traces associated with operator L or L-traces. We also derive an interesting interpretation (as periodicity of characteristic billiard or the John's mapping) of the Fredholm's property violation. Finally, we discuss some potential challenges in applying the results and proposed methods.

Review of Some Modified Generalized Korteweg–de Vries–Kuramoto–Sivashinsky Equations (Part II)

In part I of this work to appear in Foudations-MDPI 2024, some existence and uniqueness results for the solutions of some equations were reviewed, such as the Korteweg–de Vries equation (KdV), the Kuramoto–Sivashinsky equation (KS), the generalized Korteweg–de Vries–Kuramoto–Sivashinsky equation (gKdV-KS), and the nonhomogeneous boundary value problem for the KdV-KS equation in quarter plane. The main objective of this paper is to review some results of the existence of global attractors for the evolution equations with nonlinearity of the form N(ux), where ux denotes the derivative of u with respect to x, focusing in particular on the Kuramoto–Sivashinsky equation in one and two dimensions. In order to illustrate the general abstract results, we have chosen to discuss in detail the existence of global attractors for the Kuramoto–Sivashinsky (KS) equation in 1D and 2D. Once a global attractor is obtained, the question arises whether it has special regularity properties. Then we give an integrated version of the homogeneous steady state Kuramoto–Sivashinsky equation in Rn. This work ends with a change from rectangular to polar coordinates in the three-dimensional KS equation to give an energy estimate in this case.

Existence of Nontrivial Solutions for Boundary Value Problems of Fourth-Order Differential Equations

This article investigates the solvability problem of fourth-order differential equations with two-point boundary conditions; specifically, conclusions regarding sign-changing solutions are obtained. The methods used in this article are fixed-point theorems on lattices. Firstly, under some sublinear conditions, the existence of three nontrivial solutions is demonstrated, including a sign-changing solution, a negative solution and a positive solution. Secondly, under some unilaterally asymptotically linear and superlinear conditions, the existence of at least one sign-changing solution is proved. Finally, this article provides several specific examples to illustrate the obtained conclusions.

Chaos of the initial and boundary value problems for the reaction-diffusion equations

This paper investigates an initial and boundary value problem for the reaction-diffusion equations, which can be considered as a linearized form of the advective Fisher-KPP equations. It is demonstrated that the initial and boundary value problem is chaotic when the three parameters of the reaction-diffusion equation vary above a specific surface. However, stable solutions are obtained both on and below this surface within a particular subset of initial values. The chaos and stability of the nonhomogeneous initial boundary value problem are further studied. Finally, some numerical examples are provided to illustrate the validity of the obtained results.

Blow Up of Solutions to Wave Equations with Combined Logarithmic and Power-Type Nonlinearities

In this paper, we study the initial boundary value problem for wave equations with combined logarithmic and power-type nonlinearities. For arbitrary initial energy, we prove a necessary and sufficient condition for blow up at infinity of the global weak solutions. In addition, we derive a growth estimate for the blowing up global solutions.

Numerical solution of the mixed boundary value problem for the heat equation in two-dimensional domains of complex shape

A finite-difference computational algorithm is proposed for solving a mixed boundary value problem for heat equation given in a two-dimensional domains of complex shape. To solve the problem, generalized curvilinear coordinates are used. The physical domain is mapped to the computational domain (unit square) in the space of generalized coordinates. The original problem is written in curvilinear coordinates and approximated on a uniform grid in the computational domain. The obtained results are mapped on a non-uniform boundary-fitted difference grid in the physical domain. The second-order approximations of mixed Neumann – Dirichlet boundary conditions are constructed. The results of computational experiments are presented. The second order of accuracy of the presented computational algorithm is confirmed.

ON A BOUNDARY VALUE PROBLEM FOR HIGH-ORDER HYPERBOLIC EQUATION WITH IMPULSE DISCRETE MEMORY

The investigation focuses on a boundary value problem for a high-order hyperbolic equation with impulse discrete memory in a rectangular domain. By introducing new functions, the problem is transformed into a set of boundary value problems for a first-order differential equation with impulse discrete memory, which depends on unknown functions and integral relations. D.S. Dzhumabaev's parametrization method is applied to this equivalent problem. The domain is divided according to the time variable, and functional parameters representing discrete memory values are introduced within the interior domains. As a result, the family of boundary value problems for the first-order differential equation with impulse discrete memory and unknown functions is converted into an equivalent family of integral-multipoint boundary value problems involving functional parameters and unknown functions. These equivalent problems include initial value problems for first-order differential equations related to the new functions. The solutions to the initial value problems are expressed using Volterra integral equations. By substituting these solutions into the boundary and impulse conditions, a system of linear functional equations concerning the functional parameters is derived. An algorithm is developed to solve the equivalent problem, and sufficient conditions for the unique solvability of the family of integral-multipoint boundary value problems with functional parameters and unknown functions are provided. Additionally, sufficient conditions for the unique solvability of the original boundary value problem for the high-order hyperbolic equation with impulse discrete memory are established based on the initial data.

Heat equation for Sturm–Liouville operator with singular propagation and potential

Abstract This article considers the initial boundary value problem for the heat equation with the time-dependent Sturm–Liouville operator with singular potentials. To obtain a solution by the method of separation of variables, the problem is reduced to the problem of eigenvalues of the Sturm–Liouville operator. Further on, the solution to the initial boundary value problem is constructed in the form of a Fourier series expansion. A heterogeneous case is also considered. Finally, we establish the well-posedness of the equation in the case when the potential and initial data are distributions, also for singular time-dependent coefficients.
