A finite volume approximations for one nonlinear and nonlocal integrodifferential equations

In this paper, the error analysis of the Petrov–Galerkin finite volume element method (FVEM) is investigated for a nonlinear parabolic integro-differential equation that arises in the mathematical modeling of the penetration of a magnetic field into a substance, accounting for temperature-dependent changes in electrical conductivity. Starting from Maxwell’s equations, we derive a one-dimensional model problem, which forms the basis of our analysis. Our main goal is to develop a general framework for obtaining finite volume element approximations and to study the error analysis. For simplicity, we consider only the lowest-order (linear and L-splines) finite volume elements. The novel contribution lies in the application of FVEM to this problem, leading to the establishment of an unconditionally stable numerical scheme and the derivation of optimal error estimates in the L∞(L2(Ω)) and L2(H01(Ω)) norms for both semi-discrete and linearized backward Euler fully-discrete schemes, using a generalized projection method that carefully manages the nonlinear terms. Lastly, numerical experiments are provided to support the theoretical conclusions.

Tempered nonlocal integrodifferential equations with nonsmooth solution data

This work on the time discretization for the solution of the tempered nonlocal integro-differential equation with smooth and nonsmooth initial data are extended. We find the difficulty arising from theoretical analysis can be overcome by Laplace transform technique. A mount of proof skills have been provided based on Laplace transform technique for this kind of equations. The Laplace transform method is employed effectively to show that the proposed interpolating quadrature scheme is convergence for smooth and non-smooth initial data in both homogeneous and inhomogeneous cases.

Analysis of Non-Local Integro-Differential Equations with Hadamard Fractional Derivatives: Existence, Uniqueness, and Stability in the Context of RLC Models

In this study, we focus on the stability analysis of the RLC model by employing differential equations with Hadamard fractional derivatives. We prove the existence and uniqueness of solutions using Banach’s contraction principle and Schaefer’s fixed point theorem. To facilitate our key conclusions, we convert the problem into an equivalent integro-differential equation. Additionally, we explore several versions of Ulam’s stability findings. Two numerical examples are provided to illustrate the applications of our main results. We also observe that modifications to the Hadamard fractional derivative lead to asymmetric outcomes. The study concludes with an applied example demonstrating the existence results derived from Schaefer’s fixed point theorem. These findings represent novel contributions to the literature on this topic, significantly advancing our understanding.

Finite element modeling of the rotational dynamics of a single magnetic particle in a strong magnetic field and liquid medium

We have performed a comparative computational study of magnetic particle alignment in a strong magnetic field and ambient viscous fluid using the first-principles Navier–Stokes equation as well as numerical modeling using the finite element method (FEM). FEM solution has been compared with the solution of the unsteady rotations of a magnetic particle in a viscous fluid during the alignment process described with nonlocal integro-differential equations (IDEs) for torque and angular velocity. The assumption of nonlocality comes from the history term of acceleration torque with a non-Basset kernel function, which has its origin in the presence of vortices in the flow of a particle fluid environment due to its unsteady rotation and ambient fluid inertia and friction. The flow vortices of the ambient fluid are explicitly shown in the solution of the FEM model. Moreover, the solution of the time evolution of the alignment angle and angular velocity for the FEM model are in good agreement with an IDE model which we have recently developed. The obtained results are justification for interchangeability of the FEM and IDE models, which may have important consequences for large-scale simulations of magnetic microparticles.

Unraveling forward and backward source problems for a nonlocal integrodifferential equation: A journey through operational calculus for Dzherbashian‐Nersesian operator

AbstractThis article primarily aims at introducing a novel operational calculus of Mikusiński's type for the Dzherbashian‐Nersesian operator. Using this calculus, we are able to derive exact solutions for the forward and backward source problems of a differential equation that features Dzherbashian‐Nersesian operator in time and intertwined with nonlocal boundary conditions. The initial condition is expressed in terms of Riemann‐Liouville integral. Solutions are presented using Mittag‐Leffler (ML) type functions. The outcomes related to the existence and uniqueness subject to certain conditions of regularity on the input data are developed.

A non local model for cell migration in response to mechanical stimuli

Cell migration is one of the most studied phenomena in biology since it plays a fundamental role in many physiological and pathological processes such as morphogenesis, wound healing and tumorigenesis. In recent years, researchers have performed experiments showing that cells can migrate in response to mechanical stimuli of the substrate they adhere to. Motion towards regions of the substrate with higher stiffness is called durotaxis, while motion guided by the stress or the deformation of the substrate itself is called tensotaxis. Unlike chemotaxis (i.e. the motion in response to a chemical stimulus), these migratory processes are not yet fully understood from a biological point of view. In this respect, we present a mathematical model of single-cell migration in response to mechanical stimuli, in order to simulate these two processes. Specifically, the cell moves by changing its direction of polarization and its motility according to material properties of the substrate (e.g., stiffness) or in response to proper scalar measures of the substrate strain or stress. The equations of motion of the cell are non-local integro-differential equations, with the addition of a stochastic term to account for random Brownian motion. The mechanical stimulus to be integrated in the equations of motion is defined according to experimental measurements found in literature, in the case of durotaxis. Conversely, in the case of tensotaxis, substrate strain and stress are given by the solution of the mechanical problem, assuming that the extracellular matrix behaves as a hyperelastic Yeoh’s solid. In both cases, the proposed model is validated through numerical simulations that qualitatively reproduce different experimental scenarios.

Qualitative Analysis of RLC Circuit Described by Hilfer Derivative with Numerical Treatment Using the Lagrange Polynomial Method

This paper delves into an examination of the existence, uniqueness, and stability properties of a non-local integro-differential equation featuring the Hilfer fractional derivative with order ω∈(1,2) for the RLC model. Based on Schaefer’s fixed point theorem and Banach’s contraction principle, the existence and uniqueness results are established. Furthermore, Ulam–Hyers and Ulam–Hyers–Rassias stability results for the boundary value problem of the RLC model are discussed. To showcase the practicality and efficacy of our theoretical findings, a two-step Lagrange polynomial interpolation method is applied to solve some numerical examples.

Mild solution in the α-norm for some partial integrodifferential equations involving a nonlocal condition

Abstract In this work, we investigate the existence of mild solutions in the α \alpha -norm for a class of nonlocal integrodifferential equations. We employ the theory of resolvent operators introduced by R. Grimmer. The Leray-Schauder alternative is the principal working tool for our analysis.

Deep learning schemes for parabolic nonlocal integro-differential equations

In this paper we consider the numerical approximation of nonlocal integro differential parabolic equations via neural networks. These equations appear in many recent applications, including finance, biology and others, and have been recently studied in great generality starting from the work of Caffarelli and Silvestre by Lius and Lius (Comm PDE 32(8):1245–1260, 2007). Based on the work by Hure, Pham and Warin by Hure et al. (Math Comp 89:1547–1579, 2020), we generalize their Euler scheme and consistency result for Backward Forward Stochastic Differential Equations to the nonlocal case. We rely on Lévy processes and a new neural network approximation of the nonlocal part to overcome the lack of a suitable good approximation of the nonlocal part of the solution.

Existence Results of Fuzzy Delay Impulsive Fractional Differential Equation by Fixed Point Theory Approach

The main aim of this article is to study controllability and existence of solution of fuzzy delay impulsive fractional nonlocal integro-differential equation in the sense of Caputo operator. The existence and uniqueness of the solution have been carried out with the help of the Banach fixed point theorem. Moreover, for fuzzy fractional differential equations (FFDEs) driven by the Liu process, this present work introduced a concept of stability in credibility space. Finally, efficient examples are presented to demonstrate the main theoretical findings.

A Realistic Theory of Quantum Measurement

We propose that the ontic understanding of quantum mechanics can be extended to a fully realistic theory that describes the evolution of the wavefunction at all times, including during a measurement. In such an approach the wave equation should reduce to the standard wave equation when there is no measurement, and describe state reduction when the system is measured. The general wave equation must be nonlinear and nonlocal, and we require it to be time-symmetric; consequently, this approach is not a new interpretation but a new theory. The wave equation is an integrodifferential equation (IDE). The time symmetry requirement leads to a retrocausal approach, in which the wave equation is solved subject to initial and final conditions to determine history at intermediate times. We propose that different outcomes from (apparently) identically prepared experiments may result from uncontrolled parameters; both the nonlocality and the retrocausality of the theory imply that Bell’s Theorem cannot rule out such “hidden variables.” Beginning with Hamilton’s principle, we demonstrate the construction of such a theory by replacing the action with a functional designed to give rise to a nonlinear, nonlocal IDE as the wave equation. This IDE reduces to the standard wave equation (a differential equation) in the absence of a measurement, but exhibits state reduction to a single eigenvalue when the system interacts with another system with the properties of a measurement apparatus. We demonstrate several desirable features of this theory; for other properties we indicate their plausibility and possible avenues to a proof.

<abstract><p>In this paper, we investigate the existence of mild solutions for nonlocal delay fractional Cauchy problem with Caputo conformable derivative in Banach spaces. We establish a representation of a mild solution using a fractional Laplace transform. The existence of such solutions is proved under certain conditions, using the Mönch fixed point theorem and a general version of Gronwall's inequality under weaker conditions in the sense of Kuratowski measure of non compactness. Applications illustrating our main abstract results and showing the applicability of the presented theory are also given.</p></abstract>

Multidimensional Linear and Nonlinear Partial Integro-Differential Equation in Bessel Potential Spaces with Applications in Option Pricing

The purpose of this paper is to analyze solutions of a non-local nonlinear partial integro-differential equation (PIDE) in multidimensional spaces. Such class of PIDE often arises in financial modeling. We employ the theory of abstract semilinear parabolic equations in order to prove existence and uniqueness of solutions in the scale of Bessel potential spaces. We consider a wide class of Lévy measures satisfying suitable growth conditions near the origin and infinity. The novelty of the paper is the generalization of already known results in the one space dimension to the multidimensional case. We consider Black–Scholes models for option pricing on underlying assets following a Lévy stochastic process with jumps. As an application to option pricing in the one-dimensional space, we consider a general shift function arising from a nonlinear option pricing model taking into account a large trader stock-trading strategy. We prove existence and uniqueness of a solution to the nonlinear PIDE in which the shift function may depend on a prescribed large investor stock-trading strategy function.

Controllability for nonlocal stochastic integrodifferential evolution equations with the lack of compactness

In this work, we study the controllability of a class of stochastic integrodifferential equations with noncompact semigroups and nonlocal condition on Hilbert spaces.We suppose that the linear part admits a resolvent operator in the sense of Grimmer. Our main results are obtained by utilizing stochastic analysis theory, Kuratowski measure of noncompactness and Mönch fixed point Theorem. As a result, we obtain a generalization of a host of important results in the literature, without assuming the compactness of the resolvent operator. Finally, we provide an example to illustrate the efficiency of our results.

Analysis of Hilfer Fractional Integro-Differential Equations with Almost Sectorial Operators

In this work, we investigate a class of nonlocal integro-differential equations involving Hilfer fractional derivatives and almost sectorial operators. We prove our results by applying Schauder’s fixed point technique. Moreover, we show the fundamental properties of the representation of the solution by discussing two cases related to the associated semigroup. For that, we consider compactness and noncompactness properties, respectively. Furthermore, an example is given to illustrate the obtained theory.

Self-Improving inequalities for bounded weak solutions to nonlocal double phase equations

<p style='text-indent:20px;'>We prove higher Sobolev regularity for bounded weak solutions to a class of nonlinear nonlocal integro-differential equations. The leading operator exhibits nonuniform growth, switching between two different fractional elliptic "phases" that are determined by the zero set of a modulating coefficient. Solutions are shown to improve both in integrability and differentiability. These results apply to operators with rough kernels and modulating coefficients. To obtain these results we adapt a particular fractional version of the Gehring lemma developed by Kuusi, Mingione, and Sire in their work "Nonlocal self-improving properties" <i>Analysis & PDE</i>, 8(1):57–114 for the specific nonlinear setting under investigation in this manuscript.</p>

Approximate controllability for finite delay nonlocal neutral integro-differential equations using resolvent operator theory

In this paper, our purpose is to study the approximate controllability of abstract nonlocal neutral integro-differential equations with finite delay in a Hilbert space using the resolvent operator theory. We derive a variation of parameters formula for representing a solution of the given neutral integro-differential system in the form of resolvent operators and then define a mild solution of the system. We also study the existence of a mild solution of the system with the help of resolvent operator theory. The fractional power theory, $$\alpha $$ -norm, resolvent operator theory, semigroup theory and Krasnoselskii’s fixed point theorem are used to prove the approximate controllability of the system. Finally, we illustrate our results with the help of an example.

Algorithm for numerical solutions to the kinetic equation of a spatial population dynamics model with coalescence and repulsive jumps

An algorithm is proposed for finding numerical solutions of a kinetic equation that describes an infinite system of point particles placed in mathbb {R}^{d} (d geq 1). The particles perform random jumps with pair-wise repulsion in the course of which they can also merge. The kinetic equation is an essentially nonlinear and nonlocal integro-differential equation, which can hardly be solved analytically. The numerical algorithm which we use to solve it is based on a space-time discretization, boundary conditions, composite Simpson and trapezoidal rules, Runge-Kutta methods, and adjustable system-size schemes. We show that, for special choices of the model parameters, the solutions manifest unusual time behavior. A numerical error analysis of the obtained results is also carried out.
