OPTIMAL CONVERGENCE RATES OF LANDAU EQUATION WITH EXTERNAL FORCING IN THE WHOLE SPACE

In this paper, we combine the method of constructing the compensating function introduced by Kawashima and the standard energy method for the study on the Landau equation with external forcing. Both the global existence of solutions near the time asymptotic states which are local Maxwellians and the optimal convergence rates are obtained. The method used here has its own advantage for this kind of studies because it does not involve the spectrum analysis of the corresponding linearized operator.

This paper is concerned with the convergence rates to travelling waves for a relaxation model with general flux functions. Compared with former results in this direction, the main novelty in this paper lies in the fact that the initial disturbance can be chosen large in suitable norm. Our analysis is based on the L^1-stability results obtained by C. Mascia and R. Natalini in [12].

In this article, we study the rate of convergence of the polygonal approximation to multiple stochastic integral Sp （f） of fractional Brownian motion of Hurst parameter H 〈 1/2 when the fractional Brownian motion is replaced by its polygonal approximation. Under different conditions on f and for different p, we obtain different rates.

STRONG CONVERGENCE RATES OF SEVERAL ESTIMATORS IN SEMIPARAMETRIC VARYING-COEFFICIENT PARTIALLY LINEAR MODELS

This article is concerned with the estimating problem of semiparametric varyingcoefficient partially linear regression models. By combining the local polynomial and least squares procedures Fan and Huang （2005） proposed a profile least squares estimator for the parametric component and established its asymptotic normality. We further show that the profile least squares estimator can achieve the law of iterated logarithm. Moreover, we study the estimators of the functions characterizing the non-linear part as well as the error variance. The strong convergence rate and the law of iterated logarithm are derived for them, respectively.

In this paper, we consider a class of reaction hyperbolic systems for axonal trans- port arising in neuroscience which can be regarded as hyperbolic systems with relaxation. We prove the BV entropy solutions of the hyperbolic systems converge toward to the unique entropy solution of the equilibrium equation at the optimal rate O（√δ） in L1 norm as the relaxation time δ tends to zero.

CENTRAL LIMIT THEOREM AND CONVERGENCE RATES FOR A SUPERCRITICAL BRANCHING PROCESS WITH IMMIGRATION IN A RANDOM ENVIRONMENT

We are interested in the convergence rates of the submartingale Wn=Z_(n)/Π_(n)to its limit W,where(Π_(n))is the usually used norming sequence and(Z_(n))is a supercritical branching process with immigration(Y_(n))in a stationary and ergodic environmentξ.Under suitable conditions,we establish the following central limit theorems and results about the rates of convergence in probability or in law:(i)W-W_(n) with suitable normalization converges to the normal law N(0,1),and similar results also hold for W_(n+k)-W_(n) for each fixed k∈N^(*);(ii)for a branching process with immigration in a finite state random environment,if W_(1) has a finite exponential moment,then so does W,and the decay rate of P(|W-W_(n)|>ε)is supergeometric;(iii)there are normalizing constants an(ξ)(that we calculate explicitly)such that a_(n)(ξ)(W-W_(n))converges in law to a mixture of the Gaussian law.

CONVERGENCE RATE OF MULTIPLE FRACTIONAL STRATONOVICH TYPE INTEGRAL FOR HURST PARAMETER LESS THAN 1/2

In this paper, we have investigated the problem of the convergence rate of the multiple integralwhere f ∈ Cn＋1（[0, T ]n） is a given function, π is a partition of the interval [0, T ] and {BtHi ,π} is a family of interpolation approximation of fractional Brownian motion BtH with Hurst parameter H 1/2. The limit process is the multiple Stratonovich integral of the function f . In view of known results, the convergence rate is different for different multiplicity n. Under some mild conditions, we obtain that the uniform convergence rate is 2H in the mean square sense, where is the norm of the partition generating the approximations.

CONVERGENCE RATES FOR THE COMPRESSIBLE NAVIER-STOKES EQUATIONS WITH GENERAL FORCES

For the viscous and heat-conductive fluids governed by the compressible Navier- Stokes equations with external force of general form in R^3, there exist nontrivial stationary solutions provided the external forces are small in suitable norms, which was studied in article [15], and there we also proved the global in time stability of the stationary solutions with respect to initial data in H^3-framework. In this article, the authors investigate the rates of convergence of nonstationary solutions to the corresponding stationary solutions when the initial data are small in H^3 and bounded in L6/5.

New Synchronization Algorithm and Analysis of Its Convergence Rate for Clock Oscillators in Dynamical Network with Time-Delays

New synchronization algorithm and analysis of its convergence rate for clock oscillators in dynamical network with time-delays are presented.A network of nodes equipped with hardware clock oscillators with bounded drift is considered.Firstly,a dynamic synchronization algorithm based on consensus control strategy,namely fast averaging synchronization algorithm （FASA）,is presented to find the solutions to the synchronization problem.By FASA,each node computes the logical clock value based on its value of hardware clock and message exchange.The goal is to synchronize all the nodes＇ logical clocks as closely as possible.Secondly,the convergence rate of FASA is analyzed that proves it is related to the bound by a nondecreasing function of the uncertainty in message delay and network parameters.Then,FASA＇s convergence rate is proven by means of the robust optimal design.Meanwhile,several practical applications for FASA,especially the application to inverse global positioning system （IGPS） base station network are discussed.Finally,numerical simulation results demonstrate the correctness and efficiency of the proposed FASA.Compared FASA with traditional clock synchronization algorithms （CSAs）,the convergence rate of the proposed algorithm converges faster than that of the CSAs evidently.

Global exponential stability for delayed cellular neural networks and estimate of exponential convergence rate

Some sufficient conditions for the global exponential stability and lower bounds on the rate of exponential convergence of the cellular neural networks with delay (DCNNs) are obtained by means of a method based on delay differential inequality. The method, which does not make use of any Lyapunov functional, is simple and valid for the stability analysis of neural networks with delay. Some previously established results in this paper are shown to be special casses of the presented result.

In this note, we prove that the convergence rate of the modified Gauss-Seidel (MGS) method with preconditional I+S α is a monotonic function of preconditioning parameter α. Based on this result, to achieve better convergence rate we suggest proforming twice preconditoning when applying the MGS method to solve a linear system whose coefficient matrix is an irreducible non-singular M-matrix.

Optimal convergence rates for three-dimensional turbulent flow equations

In this paper, the convergence turbulent flow equations are considered. By rates of solutions to the three-dimensional combining the LP-Lq estimate for the linearized equations and an elaborate energy method, the convergence rates are obtained in various norms for the solution to the equilibrium state in the whole space when the initial perturbation of the equilibrium state is small in the H3-framework. More precisely, the optimal convergence rates of the solutions and their first-order derivatives in the L2-norm are obtained when the LP-norm of the perturbation is bounded for some p ε [1, 6）.

GLOBAL EXISTENCE AND CONVERGENCE RATES OF SMOOTH SOLUTIONS FOR THE 3-D COMPRESSIBLE MAGNETOHYDRODYNAMIC EQUATIONS WITHOUT HEAT CONDUCTIVITY

In this paper, we are concerned with the global existence and convergence rates of the smooth solutions for the compressible magnetohydrodynamic equations without heat conductivity, which is a hyperbolic-parabolic system. The global solutions are obtained by combining the local existence and a priori estimates if H3-norm of the initial perturbation around a constant states is small enough and its L1-norm is bounded. A priori decay-in-time estimates on the pressure, velocity and magnetic field are used to get the uniform bound of entropy. Moreover, the optimal convergence rates are also obtained.
