Boundedness of solutions of retarded functional differential equations with variable impulses via generalized ordinary differential equations

In this paper, we give sufficient conditions for the uniform boundedness and uniform ultimate boundedness of solutions of a class of retarded functional differential equations with impulse effects acting on variable times. We employ the theory of generalized ordinary differential equations to obtain our results. As an example, we investigate the boundedness of the solution of a circulating fuel nuclear reactor model.

Existence of Solutions for Abstract Non-Autonomous Neutral Differential Equations

In this paper we discuss the existence of mild and classical solutions for a class of abstract non-autonomous neutral functional differential equations. An application to partial neutral differential equations is considered.

Preconditioning strategies for the numerical solution of convection-diffusion partial differential equations

Il trattamento numerico dell'equazione di convezione-diffusione con le relative condizioni al bordo, comporta la risoluzione di sistemi lineari algebrici di grandi dimensioni in cui la matrice dei coefficienti è non simmetrica. Risolutori iterativi basati sul sottospazio di Krylov sono ampiamente utilizzati per questi sistemi lineari la cui risoluzione risulta particolarmente impegnativa nel caso di convezione dominante. In questa tesi vengono analizzate alcune strategie di precondizionamento, atte ad accelerare la convergenza di questi metodi iterativi. Vengono confrontati sperimentalmente precondizionatori molto noti come ILU e iterazioni di tipo inner-outer flessibile. Nel caso in cui i coefficienti del termine di convezione siano a variabili separabili, proponiamo una nuova strategia di precondizionamento basata sull'approssimazione, mediante equazione matriciale, dell'operatore differenziale di convezione-diffusione. L'azione di questo nuovo precondizionatore sfrutta in modo opportuno recenti risolutori efficienti per equazioni matriciali lineari. Vengono riportati numerosi esperimenti numerici per studiare la dipendenza della performance dei diversi risolutori dalla scelta del termine di convezione, e dai parametri di discretizzazione.

Applications of elliptic functions to solve differential equations

In questa tesi si mostrano alcune applicazioni degli integrali ellittici nella meccanica Hamiltoniana, allo scopo di risolvere i sistemi integrabili. Vengono descritte le funzioni ellittiche, in particolare la funzione ellittica di Weierstrass, ed elenchiamo i tipi di integrali ellittici costruendoli dalle funzioni di Weierstrass. Dopo aver considerato le basi della meccanica Hamiltoniana ed il teorema di Arnold Liouville, studiamo un esempio preso dal libro di Moser-Integrable Hamiltonian Systems and Spectral Theory, dove si prendono in considerazione i sistemi integrabili lungo la geodetica di un'ellissoide, e il sistema di Von Neumann. In particolare vediamo che nel caso n=2 abbiamo un integrale ellittico.

In this paper we develop a new method to determine the essential spectrum of coupled systems of singular differential equations. Applications to problems from magnetohydrodynamics and astrophysics are given.

Differential invariants of second-order ordinary differential equations

The notion of a differential invariant for systems of second-order differential equations on a manifold M with respect to the group of vertical automorphisms of the projection is de?ned and the Chern connection attached to a SODE allows one to determine a basis for second-order differential invariants of a SODE.

Characterizing chaos in a type of fractional duffing's equation

We characterize the chaos in a fractional Duffing’s equation computing the Lyapunov exponents and the dimension of the strange attractor in the effective phase space of the system. We develop a specific analytical method to estimate all Lyapunov exponents and check the results with the fiduciary orbit technique and a time series estimation method.

Kinematic geometry of mass-triangles and reduction of Schrödinger’s equation of three-body systems to partial differential equations solely defined on triangular parameters

Schrödinger’s equation of a three-body system is a linear partial differential equation (PDE) defined on the 9-dimensional configuration space, ℝ9, naturally equipped with Jacobi’s kinematic metric and with translational and rotational symmetries. The natural invariance of Schrödinger’s equation with respect to the translational symmetry enables us to reduce the configuration space to that of a 6-dimensional one, while that of the rotational symmetry provides the quantum mechanical version of angular momentum conservation. However, the problem of maximizing the use of rotational invariance so as to enable us to reduce Schrödinger’s equation to corresponding PDEs solely defined on triangular parameters—i.e., at the level of ℝ6/SO(3)—has never been adequately treated. This article describes the results on the orbital geometry and the harmonic analysis of (SO(3),ℝ6) which enable us to obtain such a reduction of Schrödinger’s equation of three-body systems to PDEs solely defined on triangular parameters.
