Approximate Controllability of Second-Order Neutral Stochastic Differential Equations with Infinite Delay and Poisson Jumps

The modelling of risky asset by stochastic processes with continuous paths, based on Brow- nian motions, suffers from several defects. First, the path continuity assumption does not seem reason- able in view of the possibility of sudden price variations （jumps） resulting of market crashes. A solution is to use stochastic processes with jumps, that will account for sudden variations of the asset prices. On the other hand, such jump models are generally based on the Poisson random measure. Many popular economic and financial models described by stochastic differential equations with Poisson jumps. This paper deals with the approximate controllability of a class of second-order neutral stochastic differential equations with infinite delay and Poisson jumps. By using the cosine family of operators, stochastic analysis techniques, a new set of sufficient conditions are derived for the approximate controllability of the above control system. An example is provided to illustrate the obtained theory.

SINE TRANSFORM PRECONDITIONERS FOR SECOND-ORDER PARTIAL DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS

In this paper, we are concerned with the numerical solution of second-order partial differential equations. We analyse the use of the Sine Transform precondilioners for the solution of linear systems arising from the discretization of p.d.e. via the preconditioned conjugate gradient method. For the second-order partial differential equations with Dirichlel boundary conditions, we prove that the condition number of the preconditioned system is O(1) while the condition number of the original system is O(m 2) Here m is the number of interior gridpoints in each direction. Such condition number produces a linear convergence rale.

Solution of Laguerre’s Differential Equations via Modified Adomian Decomposition Method

This paper presents a technique for obtaining an exact solution for the well-known Laguerre’s differential equations that arise in the modeling of several phenomena in quantum mechanics and engineering. We utilize an efficient procedure based on the modified Adomian decomposition method to obtain closed-form solutions of the Laguerre’s and the associated Laguerre’s differential equations. The proposed technique makes sense as the attitudes of the acquired solutions towards the neighboring singular points are correctly taken care of.

A class of twostep continuity Runge-Kutta methods for solving singular delay differential equations and its convergence

An idea of relaxing the effect of delay when computing the Runge-Kutta stages in the current step and a class of two-step continuity Runge-Kutta methods （TSCRK） is presented. Their construction, their order conditions and their convergence are studied. The two-step continuity Runge-Kutta methods possess good numerical stability properties and higher stage-order, and keep the explicit process of computing the Runge-Kutta stages. The numerical experiments show that the TSCRK methods are efficient.

Numerical Methods for a Class of Hybrid Weakly Singular Integro-Differential Equations

This paper proposes numerical methods for solving hybrid weakly singular integro-differential equations of the second kind. The terms in these equations are in the following order: derivative term of a state, integro-differential term of a state with a weakly singular kernel, a state, integral term of a state with a smooth kernel, and force. The original class of weakly singular integro-differential equations of the first kind is derived from aeroelasticity mathematical models. Among the proposed methods, the method for solving linear cases is fully based on previously reported approximation scheme for equations of the first kind. For nonlinear cases, a revised method is proposed. Examples are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed methods, and the results indicate that the proposed methods facilitate achieving satisfactory and accurate approximations.

REFINED DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS OF DEFLECTIONS IN AXIAL SYMMETRICAL BENDING PROBLEMS OF SPHERICAL SHELL AND THEIR SINGULAR PERTURBATION SOLUTIONS

This paper deals with the research of accuracy of differential equations of deflections. The basic idea is as follows. Firstly, considering the boundary effect the meridian midsurface displacement u=0, thus we derive the deflection differential equations; secondly we accurately prove that by use of the deflection differential equations or the original differential equations the same inner forces solutions are obtained; finally, we accurately prove that considering the boundary effect the meridian surface displacement u = 0 is an exact solution. In this paper we give the singular perturbation solution of the deflection differential equations. Finally we check the equilibrium condition and prove the inner forces solved by perturbation method and the outer load are fully equilibrated. It shows that perturbation solution is accurate. On the other hand, it shows again that the deflection differential equation is an exact equation.The features of the new differential equations are as follows:1. The accuracies of the new differential equations and the original differential e-quations are the same.2. The new differential equations can satisfy the boundary conditions simply.3. It is advantageous to use perturbation method with the new differential equations.4 We may obtain the deflection expression(w)and slope expression (dw/da) by using the new differential equations.The new differential equations greatly simplify the calculation of spherical shell. The notation adopted in this paper is the same as that in Ref. [1]
