Global well-posedness of the quantum Boltzmann equation for bosons interacting via inverse power law potentials

We consider the spatially inhomogeneous quantum Boltzmann equation for bosons with a singular collision kernel, the weak-coupling limit of a large system of Bose-Einstein particles interacting through inverse power law. Global well-posedness of the corresponding Cauchy problem is proved in a periodic box near equilibrium for initial data satisfying high temperature condition.

Distributed “End-Edge-Cloud” structural car-following control system for intelligent connected vehicle using sliding mode strategy

This paper proposes a new car-following model to describe the characteristics of the urban Internet of vehicle (IoV) of the “End-Edge-Cloud” architecture. The stability of the proposed CF model is analyzed using the perturbation method. Furtherly, in order to overcome the disturbances in the operation of the newly proposed system in this paper, a sliding mode controller is designed based on non-homogeneous terminal sliding mode variables, and after setting up the controller, the dynamic performance of the system is analyzed by solving the linear inhomogeneous differential equation and the Lyapunov method, and it is proved that the system can converge in finite time. Finally, the rationality of the model proposed in this paper and the significant improvement in the dynamic performance of the system under the action of the controller are effectively demonstrated through numerical experiments conducted in MATLAB and simulation experiment carried out in the ROS-Gazebo environment.

Nonlinear Interaction of Modes in a Planar Flow of a Gas with Viscous and Thermal Attenuation

The nonlinear interaction of wave and non-wave modes in a gas planar flow are considered. Attention is mainly paid to the case when one sound mode is dominant and excites the counter-propagating sound mode and the entropy mode. The modes are determined by links between perturbations of pressure, density, and fluid velocity. This definition follows from the linear conservation equations in the differential form and thermodynamic equations of state. The leading order system of coupling equations for interacting modes is derived. It consists of diffusion inhomogeneous equations. The main aim of this study is to identify the principle features of the interaction and to establish individual contributions of attenuation (mechanical and thermal attenuation) in the solution to the system.

Higher-order dust kinetic Alfvén wave solitons and quasi-periodic waves in a polarized dusty plasma

This investigation presents the study of dust kinetic Alfvén wave solitons (DKAWSs) and quasi-periodic waves in a polarized dusty plasma comprising inertial dust, Cairns–Tsallis (CT) distributed ions and electrons. Using the reductive perturbation method, the KdV equation is derived and the Tanh-method is employed to derive its solution to study the dust kinetic Alfvén solitary structures. Furthermore, by considering the contribution of higher-order effects, the KdV-type inhomogeneous equation is derived and its solution results in the formation of dressed DKAWSs. The combined effects of polarization force and other plasma parameters on the characteristics of different kinds of DKAWSs are analyzed. Most importantly, from the conservation of KdV equations in the presence of external periodic perturbations, the study of quasi-periodic wave has also been illustrated. The analysis shows that the periodic solitonic behavior is transformed to quasi-periodic and also approaches chaotic oscillations. By changing different physical parameters, the numerical analysis of nonlinear DKAWs from periodic to quasi-periodic and to chaotic behavior has also been presented with external perturbation. The findings of this investigation are useful to understand the insight into physics of nonlinear phenomena for studying the dynamics of DKAWSs in space and astrophysical plasma environments.

Solving a singular integral equation for the one-dimensional Coulomb problem

A new integral equation that describes the behavior of the momentum space wave function for the one-dimensional Coulomb potential is proposed. The obtained result turned out to be a homogeneous Fredholm integral equation of the second kind and a singular integral equation, because its kernel has a singularity at some point in the momentum space. A nontriviality of the method of solving this singular integral equation lies in the application of the integral representation for its integral kernel. The technique applied in this paper made it possible to show that the wave function in the momentum representation is simultaneously a solution of the homogeneous Fredholm integral equation of the second kind and of the linear Volterra integral equation of the second kind. Since a linear Volterra integral equation of the second kind was easily transformed into a second order linear inhomogeneous differential equation with constant coefficients, the eigenfunctions and eigenvalues in the one-dimensional Coulomb problem were found without any difficulties. Such a circumstance may indicate the validity of the new integral equation and the proposed method of its solving.

Integrated Resolving Functions for Equations with Gerasimov–Caputo Derivatives

The concept of a β-integrated resolving function for a linear equation with a Gerasimov–Caputo fractional derivative is introduced into consideration. A number of properties of such functions are proved, and conditions for the solvability of the Cauchy problem to linear homogeneous and inhomogeneous equations are found in the case of the existence of a β-integrated resolving function. The necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of such a function in terms of estimates on the resolvent of its generator are obtained. The example of a β-integrated resolving function for the Schrödinger equation is given. Thus, the paper discusses some aspects of the symmetry of the concepts of integrability and differentiability. Namely, it is shown that, in the absence of a sufficiently differentiable resolving function for a fractional differential equation, the problem of the existence of a solution can be solved by an integrated resolving function of the equation.

Existence of nonminimal solutions to an inhomogeneous elliptic equation with supercritical nonlinearity

Abstract In our previous paper [K. Ishige, S. Okabe, and T. Sato, A supercritical scalar field equation with a forcing term, J. Math. Pures Appl. 128 (2019), pp. 183–212], we proved the existence of a threshold κ ∗ > 0 {\kappa }^{\ast }\gt 0 such that the elliptic problem for an inhomogeneous elliptic equation − Δ u + u = u p + κ μ -\Delta u+u={u}^{p}+\kappa \mu in R N {{\bf{R}}}^{N} possesses a positive minimal solution decaying at the space infinity if and only if 0 < κ ≤ κ ∗ 0\lt \kappa \le {\kappa }^{\ast } . Here, N ≥ 2 N\ge 2 , μ \mu is a nontrivial nonnegative Radon measure in R N {{\bf{R}}}^{N} with a compact support, and p > 1 p\gt 1 is in the Joseph-Lundgren subcritical case. In this article, we prove the existence of nonminimal positive solutions to the elliptic problem. Our arguments are also applicable to inhomogeneous semilinear elliptic equations with exponential nonlinearity.

Chaotic and integrable magnetic fields in one-dimensional hybrid Vlasov–Maxwell equilibria

The construction of kinetic equilibrium states is important for studying stability and wave propagation in collisionless plasmas. Thus, many studies over the past decades have been focused on calculating Vlasov–Maxwell equilibria using analytical and numerical methods. However, the problem of kinetic equilibrium of hybrid models is less studied, and self-consistent treatments often adopt restrictive assumptions ruling out cases with irregular and chaotic behaviour, although such behaviour is observed in spacecraft observations of space plasmas. In this paper, we develop a one-dimensional (1-D), quasineutral, hybrid Vlasov–Maxwell equilibrium model with kinetic ions and massless fluid electrons and derive associated solutions. The model allows for an electrostatic potential that is expressed in terms of the vector potential components through the quasineutrality condition. The equilibrium states are calculated upon solving an inhomogeneous Beltrami equation that determines the magnetic field, where the inhomogeneous term is the current density of the kinetic ions and the homogeneous term represents the electron current density. We show that the corresponding 1-D system is Hamiltonian, with position playing the role of time, and its trajectories have a regular, periodic behaviour for ion distribution functions that are symmetric in the two conserved particle canonical momenta. For asymmetric distribution functions, the system is nonintegrable, resulting in irregular and chaotic behaviour of the fields. The electron current density can modify the magnetic field phase space structure, inducing orbit trapping and the organization of orbits into large islands of stability. Thus, the electron contribution can be responsible for the emergence of localized electric field structures that induce ion trapping. We also provide a paradigm for the analytical construction of hybrid equilibria using a rotating two-dimensional harmonic oscillator Hamiltonian, enabling the calculation of analytic magnetic fields and the construction of the corresponding distribution functions in terms of Hermite polynomials.

The Use of Focused Ultrasound Beams with Shocks to Suppress Diffusion Effects in Volumetric Thermal Ablation of Biological Tissue

The article presents the results of numerical simulation of an experiment on irradiatingex vivobovine liver sample by the therapeutic array of the MR-HIFU clinical system (Sonalleve V1 3.0T, Profound Medical Corp., Canada). Continuous quasi-linear and pulsed shock-wave exposures with the same time-averaged power are compared. Volumetric thermal lesions were generated by moving the focus of the array in its focal plane along discrete trajectories consisting of two or four concentric circles with a maximum radius of 4 mm. The effect of using the criteria for controlling the thermal dose during treatment and ending the sonication on the shape, volume, and exposure time of generating thermal lesion were analyzed. The acoustic field in tissue was calculated using the Westervelt equation; the temperature field was simulated with the inhomogeneous heat conduction equation; and the lesion boundary was determined according to the thermal dose threshold. In the quasi-linear mode corresponding to the clinical one, thermal diffusion leads to elongation of the lesion by a factor of 2–3 along the beam axis compared to the transverse dimension of the trajectory. The use of pulsed shock-wave exposures with switching off the inner circles of the trajectory as they reach the threshold value of the thermal dose makes it possible to significantly suppress the thermal diffusion effects in the axial direction of the beam and obtain localized thermal lesion of a given shape with a thermal ablation rate comparable to the clinical case.

A higher integrability of the gradient of a solution to the Zaremba problem in a bounded Lipschitz plane domain is proved for the inhomogeneous p-Laplace equation.

Generalized initial-boundary problem for the wave equation with mixed derivative

We study an initial-boundary problem for a second-order inhomogeneous hyperbolic equation in a half-strip of the plane containing a mixed derivative with constant coefficients and zero or nonzero potential. This equation is the equation of transverse oscillations of a moving finite string. The case of zero initial velocity and fixed ends (Dirichlet conditions) is considered. It is assumed that the roots of the characteristic equation are simple and lie on the real axis on opposite sides of the origin. The classical solution of the initial-boundary problem is determined. In the case of zero potential, a uniqueness theorem for the classical solution is formulated and a formula for the solution is given in the form of a series consisting of contour integrals containing the initial data of the problem. Based on this formula, the concepts of a generalized initial-boundary value problem and a generalized solution are introduced. The main theorems on finite formulas for the generalized solution in the case of homogeneous and inhomogeneous problems are formulated. To prove these theorems, we apply an approach that uses the theory of divergent series in the sense of Euler, proposed by A.P. Khromov (axiomatic approach). Using this approach, on the basis of formulas for solutions in the form of a series, the formulated main theorems are proved. Further, as an application of the main theorems obtained, we prove a theorem on the existence and uniqueness of a generalized solution of the initial-boundary problem in the presence of a nonzero summable potential and give a formula for the solution in the form of an exponentially convergent series.

ІНФІНІТЕЗИМАЛЬНІ ДЕФОРМАЦІЇ ПОВЕРХОНЬ ІЗ ЗАДАНОЮ ЗМІНОЮ ТЕНЗОРА РІЧЧІ

In three-dimensional Euclidean space, we study the problem of the existence of an infinitesimal first-order deformation of single-connected regular surfaces with a predetermined change in the Ricci tensor. It is shown that for surfaces of nonzero Gaussian curvature, this problem is reduced to the study and solution of a system of seven equations (including differential equations) with respect to seven unknown functions, each solution of which determines a vector field that is a univariate function (with an accuracy of a constant vector) and can be interpreted as a moment-free stress state of equilibrium of a loaded shell. For regular surfaces of non-zero Gaussian and mean curvatures, the problem is reduced to finding solutions to one second-order partial differential equation with respect to two unknown functions. Given one of these functions, the resulting equation will in general be a nonhomogeneous second-order partial differential equation (nonhomogeneous Weingarten differential equation). It is proved that any regular surface of positive Gaussian and non-zero mean curvature admits an infinitesimal first-order deformation with a given change in the Ricci tensor in a sufficiently small region. In this case, the tensor fields will be represented by an arbitrary and predefined regular function. By considering the Neumann problem, it is shown that a single-connected regular surface of elliptic type of positive Gaussian and negative mean curvature with a regular boundary under a certain boundary condition admits, in general, an infinitesimal first-order deformation with a predetermined change in the Ricci tensor. In this case, the tensor fields will be determined uniquely. For surfaces of negative Gaussian and non-zero mean curvature, the resulting inhomogeneous partial differential equation with second-order partial differentials will be of hyperbolic type with known coefficients and right-hand side. The Darboux problem is considered for this equation. It is proved that any regular surface of negative Gaussian and non-zero mean curvature admits an infinitesimal first-order deformation with a given change in the Ricci tensor. Tensor fields are expressed through a given function of two variables and through two arbitrary regular functions of one variable. Keywords: infinitesimal deformation, Ricci tensor, tensor fields, Gaussian curvature, mean curvature.

APPLICATION OF CALCULATION METHODS FOR SOLVING APPLIED PROBLEMS OF HEAT AND MASS EXCHANGE IN COMPLEX SYSTEMS

The accuracy of the calculation and optimization of the objective function and its parameters when solving applied engineering problems depends on the accuracy of the formulation of the main optimization problem, calculation and applied optimization problems, as well as the accuracy of computational methods for their implementation. An increase in the considered features of applied optimization problems will complicate the setting and methods of implementing boundary value problems. Thus, for the implementation of modernized boundary value problems, it will be necessary to apply several computational methods that will create a computational structure. The main condition for constructing a physically based boundary value problem is to find and justify the conditions for the existence of a unique solution. To increase the efficiency of the use of methods of calculation and optimization of technical parameters, it is necessary to increase the number of considered features of calculation and applied optimization mathematical models for heat and mass transfer in technical systems. Along with the construction of boundary value problems, it is important to define and justify the conditions for the existence of a single solution.
 The research article deals with some aspects of solving applied problems of heat and mass transfer in technical systems. Nonlocal boundary value problems for inhomogeneous and homogeneous pseudodifferential equations in partial derivatives with integral boundary conditions are considered, methods of solving a nonlocal inhomogeneous boundary value problem are proposed, and the correctness conditions of this problem in the class of infinitely differentiable generalized functions of power growth are defined and proven. Proved conditions for the existence of a correct problem for pseudo-differential equations with an integral boundary condition. The research of this article should be applied for controlling possible risks when solving applied problems in technical systems, biotechnology and veterinary medicine.

Virtual sources for structured partially coherent light fields.

A virtual source (VS) is a hypothetical source instead of an actual physical entity, but provides a distinctive perspective to understand physical fields in a source-free area. In this work, we generalize the VS theory to structured partially coherent light fields (PCLFs) by establishing the partially coherent inhomogeneous Helmholtz equation, then demonstrate that PCLFs can be generated from the incoherent extended VS in imaginary space. Especially, we put forward an understanding of the Gaussian Schell-model beam, which consists of a group of partially coherent paraxial complex rays. The mutual coherence between these rays depends on the included angle between them. In previous studies, the analytical solution of the partially coherent Airy beam was obtained with difficulty by the Huygens-Fresnel integral; however, by applying the VS, we put forward, to our knowledge, an unprecedented analytical solution for a partially coherent Airy beam. We believe this example will qualify the VS as an important perspective to understand structured PCLFs.

A novel analytical approach for solving partial differential equations via a tensor product theory of Banach spaces

In this paper, we aim to propose a novel analytical method for obtaining atomic solutions to partial differential equations. A theory of tensor products in Banach spaces is utilized and some properties of atom operators are studied to achieve our goals. The proposed scheme is demonstrated through illustrative examples of inhomogeneous partial differential equations. The approach is indeed quite direct and effective in exactly solving partial differential equations.

Analytic smoothing effect of the spatially inhomogeneous Landau equations for hard potentials

We study the spatially inhomogeneous Landau equations with hard potential in the perturbation setting, and establish the analytic smoothing effect in both spatial and velocity variables for a class of low-regularity weak solutions. This shows the Landau equations behave essentially as the hypoelliptic Fokker-Planck operators. The spatial analyticity relies on a new time-average operator, and the proof is based on a straightforward energy estimate with a careful estimate on the derivatives with respect to the new time-average operator.

Global strong solution of 3D inhomogeneous incompressible Navier-Stokes equations with degenerate viscosity

In this paper, we investigate the Cauchy problem of the three-dimensional inhomogeneous incompressible Navier-Stokes equations with degenerate viscosity. For the case μ(ρ)=ρ, we prove the global existence of strong solution for small initial data satisfying the compatibility condition. Furthermore, we also obtain the large time algebraic decay rates of the velocity. The innovation of this article is that it does not require a positive lower bound for viscosity.

General solutions’ laws of linear partial differential equations II

This paper uses Z transformations to obtain the general solutions of a large number of second-order, third-order and fourth-order linear partial differential equations for the first time, including one-dimensional inhomogeneous wave equation. Using general solutions, we have obtained plenty of exact solutions of the typical definite solution problems, which proves the important value of general solutions. We propose the Z4 transformation for the first time and initially use it to solve a specific case. We successfully obtain the Fourier series solution using the series general solution of the one-dimensional homogeneous wave equation, which successfully solves a famous unresolved debate in the history of mathematics.

The priori modeling is implemented by a Markov Random Field (MRF). A hierarchical Bayesian model is adopted to select regularization parameters automatically. The Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) algorithms are conducted to explore the posterior state space. Three numerical examples are carried out to demonstrate the performance of the proposed method.
