Infinitely many periodic solutions for second-order Hamiltonian systems

The existence of high energy periodic solutions for the second-order Hamiltonian system -ü（t）＋A（t）u（t）=▽F（t,u（t）） with convex and concave nonlinearities is studied, where F（t, u） = F1（t,u）＋F2（t,u）. Under the condition that F is an even functional, infinitely many solutions for it are obtained by the variant fountain theorem. The result is a complement for some known ones in the critical point theory.

Symmetries and variational calculation of discrete Hamiltonian systems

We present a numerical simulation method of Noether and Lie symmetries for discrete Hamiltonian systems. The Noether and Lie symmetries for the systems are proposed by investigating the invariance properties of discrete Lagrangian in phase space. The numerical calculations of a two-degree-of-freedom nonlinear harmonic oscillator show that the difference discrete variational method preserves the exactness and the invariant quantity.

This paper focuses on studying Lie symmetries and conserved quantities of discrete nonholonomic Hamiltonian systems.

Secondly, the determining equations and structure equation of Lie symmetry of the system are obtained. Thirdly, the Lie theorems and the conservation quantities are given for the discrete nonholonomic Hamiltonian systems. Finally, an example is discussed to illustrate the application of the results.

Two new discrete integrable systems

In this paper,we focus on the construction of new（1＋1）-dimensional discrete integrable systems according to a subalgebra of loop algebra A 1.By designing two new（1＋1）-dimensional discrete spectral problems,two new discrete integrable systems are obtained,namely,a 2-field lattice hierarchy and a 3-field lattice hierarchy.When deriving the two new discrete integrable systems,we find the generalized relativistic Toda lattice hierarchy and the generalized modified Toda lattice hierarchy.Moreover,we also obtain the Hamiltonian structures of the two lattice hierarchies by means of the discrete trace identity.

Discrete Differential Geometry and the Structural Study of Protein Complexes

This paper proposes a novel four-dimensional approach to the structural study of protein complexes. In the approach, the surface of a protein molecule is to be described using the intersection of a pair of four-dimensional triangular cones (with multiple top vertexes). As a mathematical toy model of protein complexes, we consider complexes of closed trajectories of n-simplices (n=2,3,4...), where the design problem of protein complexes corresponds to an extended version of the Hamiltonian cycle problem. The problem is to find “a set of” closed trajectories of n-simplices which fills the n-dimensional region defined by a given pair of n+1 -dimensional triangular cones. Here we give a solution to the extended Hamiltonian cycle problem in the case of n=2 using the discrete differential geometry of triangles (i.e., 2-simplices).

SQUEEZE FLOW OF A SECOND-ORDER FLUID BETWEEN TWO PARALLEL DISKS OR TWO SPHERES

The normal viscous force of squeeze flow between two arbitrary rigid spheres with an interstitial second-order fluid was studied for modeling wet granular materials using the discrete element method. Based on the Reynolds' lubrication theory, the small parameter method was introduced to approximately analyze velocity field and stress distribution between the two disks. Then a similar procedure was carried out for analyzing the normal interaction between two nearly touching, arbitrary rigid spheres to obtain the pressure distribution and the resulting squeeze force. It has been proved that the solutions can be reduced to the case of a Newtonian fluid when the non-Newtonian terms are neglected.

Arnold Tongues for Discrete Hill’s Equation

In this work we study two types of Discrete Hill’s equation. The first comes from the discretization process of a Continuous-time Hill’s equation, we called Discretized Hill’s equation. The Second is a naturally obtained in Discrete-Time and will be called Discrete-time Hill’s equation. The objective of discretization is preserving the continuous-time behavior and we show this property. On the contrary a completely different dynamic property was found for the Discrete-Time Hill’s equation. At the end of the paper is shown that both types share the nonoscillatory behavior of solutions in the 0-th Arnold Tongue.

Integrable Properties Associated with a Discrete Three-by-Three Matrix Spectral Problem

Based on a new discrete three-by-three matrix spectral problem, a hierarchy of integrable lattice equations with three potentials is proposed through discrete zero-curvature representation, and the resulting integrable lattice equation reduces to the classical Toda lattice equation. It is shown that the hierarchy possesses a HamiItonian structure and a hereditary recursion operator. Finally, infinitely many conservation laws of corresponding lattice systems are obtained by a direct way.

In the end, a reduced family of obtained semi-discrete systems and its Hamiltonian form are worked out.

Noether conserved quantities and Lie point symmetries for difference nonholonomic Hamiltonian systems in irregular lattices

The Noether conserved quantities and the Lie point symmetries for difference nonholonomic Hamiltonian systems in irregular lattices are studied. The generalized Hamiltonian equations of the systems are given on the basis of the transformation operators in the space of discrete Hamiltonians. The Lie transformations acting on the lattice, as well as the equations and the determining equations of the Lie symmetries are obtained for the nonholonomic Hamiltonian systems. The discrete analogue of the Noether conserved quantity is constructed by using the Lie point symmetries. An example is discussed to illustrate the results.

Enforcing the Discrete Maximum Principle for Linear Finite Element Solutions of Second-Order Elliptic Problems

The maximum principle is a basic qualitative property of the solution of second-order elliptic boundary value problems.The preservation of the qualitative characteristics,such as the maximum principle,in discrete model is one of the key requirements.It is well known that standard linear finite element solution does not satisfy maximum principle on general triangular meshes in 2D.In this paper we consider how to enforce discrete maximum principle for linear finite element solutions for the linear second-order self-adjoint elliptic equation.First approach is based on repair technique,which is a posteriori correction of the discrete solution.Second method is based on constrained optimization.Numerical tests that include anisotropic cases demonstrate how our method works for problems for which the standard finite element methods produce numerical solutions that violate the discrete maximum principle.

Hamiltonian System of New Nonlinear Lattice Equations

A 3-dimensional Lie algebra sμ（3） is obtained with the help of the known Lie algebra. Based on the sμ（3）, a new discrete 3 × 3 matrix spectral problem with three potentials is constructed. In virtue of discrete zero curvature equations, a new matrix Lax representation for the hierarchy of the discrete lattice soliton equations is acquired. It is shown that the hierarchy possesses a Hamiltonian operator and a hereditary recursion operator, which implies that there exist infinitely many common commuting symmetries and infinitely many common commuting conserved functionals.
