On the numerical integration of a class of singular perturbation problems

A three-point difference scheme recently proposed in Ref. 1 for the numerical solution of a class of linear, singularly perturbed, two-point boundary-value problems is investigated. The scheme is derived from a first-order approximation to the original problem with a small deviating argument. It is shown here that, in the limit, as the deviating argument tends to zero, the difference scheme converges to a one-sided approximation to the original singularly perturbed equation in conservation form. The limiting scheme is shown to be stable on any uniform grid. Therefore, no advantage arises from using the deviating argument, and the most accurate and efficient results are obtained with the deviation at its zero limit.

Singular perturbation problems for time-reversible systems

In this paper singularly perturbed reversible vector fields defined in R-n without normal hyperbolicity conditions are discussed. The main results give conditions for the existence of infinitely many periodic orbits and heteroclinic cycles converging to singular orbits with respect to the Hausdorff distance.

Limit cycles for singular perturbation problems via inverse integrating factor

In this paper singularly perturbed vector fields Xε defined in ℝ2 are discussed. The main results use the solutions of the linear partial differential equation XεV = div(Xε)V to give conditions for the existence of limit cycles converging to a singular orbit with respect to the Hausdorff distance. © SPM.

Theory of differential inequalities with appliciations to singular perturbiation problems and method of lines

During recent years, the theory of differential inequalities has been extensively used to discuss singular perturbation problems and method of lines to partial differential equations. The present thesis deals with some differential inequality theorems and their applications to singularly perturbed initial value problems, boundary value problems for ordinary differential equations in Banach space and initial boundary value problems for parabolic differential equations. The method of lines to parabolic and elliptic differential equations are also dealt The thesis is organised into nine chapters

Non-compact generalized variational inequalities for quasi-monotone and hemi-continuous operators with applications

Some results are obtained for non-compact cases in topological vector spaces for the existence problem of solutions for some set-valued variational inequalities with quasi-monotone and lower hemi-continuous operators, and with quasi-semi-monotone and upper hemi-continuous operators. Some applications are given in non-reflexive Banach spaces for these existence problems of solutions and for perturbation problems for these set-valued variational inequalities with quasi-monotone and quasi-semi-monotone operators.

On some sampling-related frames in U-invariant spaces

This paper concerns the characterization as frames of some sequences in U-invariant spaces of a separable Hilbert space H where U denotes an unitary operator defined on H ; besides, the dual frames having the same form are also found. This general setting includes, in particular, shift-invariant or modulation-invariant subspaces in L2 (R), where these frames are intimately related to the generalized sampling problem. We also deal with some related perturbation problems. In so doing, we need that the unitary operator U belongs to a continuous group of unitary operators.
