In this article, linear regular index 2 DAEs A（t）[D（t）x（t）]＇ ＋ B（t）x（t） = q（t） are considered. Using a decoupling technique, initial condition and boundary condition are properly formulated. Regular index 1 DAEs are obtained by a regularization method. We study the behavior of the solution of the regularization system via asymptotic expansions. The error analysis between the solutions of the DAEs and its regularization system is given.

NONNEGATIVITY OF SOLUTIONS OF NONLINEAR FRACTIONAL DIFFERENTIAL-ALGEBRAIC EQUATIONS

Nonlinear fractional differential-algebraic equations often arise in simulating integrated circuits with superconductors. How to obtain the nonnegative solutions of the equations is an important scientific problem. As far as we known, the nonnegativity of solutions of the nonlinear fractional differential-algebraic equations is still not studied. In this article, we investigate the nonnegativity of solutions of the equations. Firstly, we discuss the existence of nonnegative solutions of the equations, and then we show that the nonnegative solution can be approached by a monotone waveform relaxation sequence provided the initial iteration is chosen properly. The choice of initial iteration is critical and we give a method of finding it. Finally, we present an example to illustrate the efficiency of our method.

Legendre Neural Network for Solving Linear Variable Coefficients Delay Differential-Algebraic Equations with Weak Discontinuities

In this paper,we propose a novel Legendre neural network combined with the extreme learning machine algorithm to solve variable coefficients linear delay differential-algebraic equations with weak discontinuities.First,the solution interval is divided into multiple subintervals by weak discontinuity points.Then,Legendre neural network is used to eliminate the hidden layer by expanding the input pattern using Legendre polynomials on each subinterval.Finally,the parameters of the neural network are obtained by training with the extreme learning machine.The numerical examples show that the proposed method can effectively deal with the difficulty of numerical simulation caused by the discontinuities.

ON SOLVABILITY AND WAVEFORM RELAXATION METHODS FOR LINEAR VARIABLE-COEFFICIENT DIFFERENTIAL-ALGEBRAIC EQUATIONS

This paper is concerned with the solvability and waveform relaxation methods of linear variable-coefficient differential-algebraic equations （DAEs）. Most of the previous works have been focused on linear variable-coefficient DAEs with smooth coefficients and data, yet no results related to the convergence rate of the corresponding waveform relaxation methods has been obtained. In this paper, we develope the solvability theory for the linear variable-coefficient DAEs on Legesgue square-integrable function space in both traditional and least squares senses, and determine the convergence rate of the waveform relaxation methods for solving linear variable-coefficient DAEs.

Matrix Riccati Equations in Optimal Control

In this paper, the matrix Riccati equation is considered. There is no general way for solving the matrix Riccati equation despite the many fields to which it applies. While scalar Riccati equation has been studied thoroughly, matrix Riccati equation of which scalar Riccati equations is a particular case, is much less investigated. This article proposes a change of variable that allows to find explicit solution of the Matrix Riccati equation. We then apply this solution to Optimal Control.

THE STABILITY OF BOUSSINESQ EQUATIONS WITH PARTIAL DISSIPATION AROUND THE HYDROSTATIC BALANCE

This paper is devoted to understanding the stability of perturbations around the hydrostatic equilibrium of the Boussinesq system in order to gain insight into certain atmospheric and oceanographic phenomena.The Boussinesq system focused on here is anisotropic,and involves only horizontal dissipation and thermal damping.In the 2D case R^(2),due to the lack of vertical dissipation,the stability and large-time behavior problems have remained open in a Sobolev setting.For the spatial domain T×R,this paper solves the stability problem and gives the precise large-time behavior of the perturbation.By decomposing the velocity u and temperatureθinto the horizontal average(ū,θ)and the corresponding oscillation(ū,θ),we can derive the global stability in H~2 and the exponential decay of(ū,θ)to zero in H^(1).Moreover,we also obtain that(ū_(2),θ)decays exponentially to zero in H^(1),and thatū_(1)decays exponentially toū_(1)(∞)in H^(1)as well;this reflects a strongly stratified phenomenon of buoyancy-driven fluids.In addition,we establish the global stability in H^(3)for the 3D case R^(3).

The Maxwell-Heaviside Equations Explained by the Theory of Informatons

In the articles “Newtons Law of Universal Gravitation Explained by the Theory of Informatons” and “The Gravitational Interaction between Moving Mass Particles Explained by the Theory of Informatons” the gravitational interaction has been explained by the hypothesis that information carried by informatons is the substance of gravitational fields, i.e. the medium that the interaction in question makes possible. From the idea that “information carried by informatons” is its substance, it has been deduced that—on the macroscopic level—a gravitational field manifests itself as a dual entity, always having a field- and an induction component (Egand Bg) simultaneously created by their common sources. In this article we will mathematically deduce the Maxwell-Heaviside equations from the kinematics of the informatons. These relations describe on the macroscopic level how a gravitational field (Eg, Bg) is generated by whether or not moving masses and how spatial and temporal changes of Egand Bgare related. We show that there is no causal link between Egand Bg.

THE SMOOTHING EFFECT IN SHARP GEVREY SPACE FOR THE SPATIALLY HOMOGENEOUS NON-CUTOFF BOLTZMANN EQUATIONS WITH A HARDPOTENTIAL

In this article, we study the smoothing effect of the Cauchy problem for the spatially homogeneous non-cutoff Boltzmann equation for hard potentials. It has long been suspected that the non-cutoff Boltzmann equation enjoys similar regularity properties as to whose of the fractional heat equation. We prove that any solution with mild regularity will become smooth in Gevrey class at positive time, with a sharp Gevrey index, depending on the angular singularity. Our proof relies on the elementary L^(2) weighted estimates.

Besov Estimates for Sub-Elliptic Equations in the Heisenberg Group

In this article, we deal with weak solutions to non-degenerate sub-elliptic equations in the Heisenberg group, and study the regularities of solutions. We establish horizontal Calderón-Zygmund type estimate in Besov spaces with more general assumptions on coefficients for both homogeneous equations and non-homogeneous equations. This study of regularity estimates expands the Calderón-Zygmund theory in the Heisenberg group.

On Two Types of Stability of Solutions to a Pair of Damped Coupled Nonlinear Evolution Equations

The stability of a set of spatially constant plane wave solutions to a pair of damped coupled nonlinear Schrödinger evolution equations is considered. The equations could model physical phenomena arising in fluid dynamics, fibre optics or electron plasmas. The main result is that any small perturbation to the solution remains small for all time. Here small is interpreted as being both in the supremum sense and the square integrable sense.

Sparse-Grid Implementation of Fixed-Point Fast Sweeping WENO Schemes for Eikonal Equations

Fixed-point fast sweeping methods are a class of explicit iterative methods developed in the literature to efficiently solve steady-state solutions of hyperbolic partial differential equations(PDEs).As other types of fast sweeping schemes,fixed-point fast sweeping methods use the Gauss-Seidel iterations and alternating sweeping strategy to cover characteristics of hyperbolic PDEs in a certain direction simultaneously in each sweeping order.The resulting iterative schemes have a fast convergence rate to steady-state solutions.Moreover,an advantage of fixed-point fast sweeping methods over other types of fast sweeping methods is that they are explicit and do not involve the inverse operation of any nonlinear local system.Hence,they are robust and flexible,and have been combined with high-order accurate weighted essentially non-oscillatory(WENO)schemes to solve various hyperbolic PDEs in the literature.For multidimensional nonlinear problems,high-order fixed-point fast sweeping WENO methods still require quite a large amount of computational costs.In this technical note,we apply sparse-grid techniques,an effective approximation tool for multidimensional problems,to fixed-point fast sweeping WENO methods for reducing their computational costs.Here,we focus on fixed-point fast sweeping WENO schemes with third-order accuracy(Zhang et al.2006[41]),for solving Eikonal equations,an important class of static Hamilton-Jacobi(H-J)equations.Numerical experiments on solving multidimensional Eikonal equations and a more general static H-J equation are performed to show that the sparse-grid computations of the fixed-point fast sweeping WENO schemes achieve large savings of CPU times on refined meshes,and at the same time maintain comparable accuracy and resolution with those on corresponding regular single grids.
