THE UNIFORM CONVERGENCE OF A DG METHOD FOR A SINGULARLY PERTURBED VOLTERRA INTEGRO-DIFFERENTIAL EQUATION

The purpose of this work is to implement a discontinuous Galerkin(DG)method with a one-sided flux for a singularly perturbed Volterra integro-differential equation(VIDE)with a smooth kernel.First,the regularity property and a decomposition of the exact solution of the singularly perturbed VIDE with the initial condition are provided.Then the existence and uniqueness of the DG solution are proven.Then some appropriate projection-type interpolation operators and their corresponding approximation properties are established.Based on the decomposition of the exact solution and the approximation properties of the projection type interpolants,the DG method achieves the uniform convergence in the L2 norm with respect to the singular perturbation parameter e when the space of polynomials with degree p is used.A numerical experiment validates the theoretical results.Furthermore,an ultra-convergence order 2p+1 at the nodes for the one-sided flux,uniform with respect to the singular perturbation parameter e,is observed numerically.

Adaptive grid methods are established as valuable computational technique in approximating effectively the solutions of problems with boundary or interior layers. In this paper,we present the analysis of an upwind scheme for singularly perturbed differential-difference equation on a grid which is formed by equidistributing arc-length monitor function.It is shown that the discrete solution obtained converges uniformly with respect to the perturbation parameter.Numerical experiments illustrate in practice the result of convergence proved theoretically.

Uniform Convergence Analysis for Singularly Perturbed Elliptic Problems with Parabolic Layers

In this paper, using Lin＇s integral identity technique, we prove the optimal uniform convergence θ（Nx^-2ln^2Nx＋Ny^-2ln^2Ny） in the L^2-norm for singularly perturbed problems with parabolic layers. The error estimate is achieved by bilinear finite elements on a Shishkin type mesh. Here Nx and Ny are the number of elements in the x- and y-directions, respectively. Numerical results are provided supporting our theoretical analysis.

Convergence Properties of Generalized Fourier Series on a Parallel Hexagon Domain

A new Rogosinski-type kernel function is constructed using kernel function of partial sums Sn（f; t） of generalized Fourier series on a parallel hexagon domain Ω associating with threedirection partition. We prove that an operator Wn（f; t） with the new kernel function converges uniformly to any continuous function f（t） ∈ Cn（Ω） （the space of all continuous functions with period Ω） on Ω. Moreover, the convergence order of the operator is presented for the smooth approached function.

ON THE UNIFORM CONVERGENCE OF THEGENERALIZED BIEBERBACH POLYNOMIALS INREGIONS WITH K-QUASICONFORMAL BOUNDARY

Let G be a finite domain in the complex plane with K-quasicon formal boundary, z 0 be an arbitrary fixed point in G and p>0. Let π(z) be the conformal mapping from G onto the disk with radius r 0>0 and centered at the origin 0, normalized by ?(z 0) = 0 and ?(z 0) = 1. Let us set $\varphi _p \left( z \right): = \int_{x_0 }^x {\left[ {\phi \left( \zeta \right)} \right]^{2/8} } d\zeta $ , and let π n,p (z) be the generalized Bieberbach polynomial of degree n for the pair (G,z 0) that minimizes the integral $\iint\limits_c {\left| {\varphi _p \left( z \right) - P_x^1 (z)} \right|^p d0_x }$ in the class $\mathop \prod \limits_n $ of all polynomials of degree ≤ n and satisfying the conditions P n (z 0) = 0 and P′ n (z 0) = 1. In this work we prove the uniform convergence of the generalized Bieberbach polynomials π n,p (z) to ? p (z) on $\bar G$ in case of $p > 2 - \frac{{K^2 + 1}}{{2K^4 }}$ .

On the best convergence order of a new class of triangular summation operators

In this paper, a new class of triangular summation operators based on the equidistant nodes was constructed. It is proved that this class of operators converges uniformly to arbitrary continuous fimctions with the period 2π on the whole axis, Fttrthermore, the best approximation order and the highest convergence order are obtained. In contrast to certain operators constructed by Bernstein and Kis in the previous works, the convergence properties of the new operator constructed in this paper are superior.

UNIFORM CONVERGENCE AND SEQUENCE OF MAPS ON A COMPACT METRIC SPACE WITH SOME CHAOTIC PROPERTIES

Recently, C. Tain and G. Chen introduced a new concept of sequence of time invariant function. In this paper we try to investigate the chaotic behavior of the uniform limit function f ： X →X of a sequence of continuous topologically transitive （in strongly successive way） functions fn ： X →X, where X is a compact interval. Surprisingly, we find that the uniform limit function is chaotic in the sense of Devaney. Lastly, we give an example to show that the denseness property of Devaney＇s definition is lost on the limit function.

We address the problem of convergence of approximations obtained from two versions of the piecewise power-law representations arisen in Systems Biology. The most important cases of mean-square and uniform convergence are studied in detail. Advantages and drawbacks of the representations as well as properties of both kinds of convergence are discussed. Numerical approximation algorithms related to piecewise power-law representations are described in Appendix.

THE UNIFORMLY CONVERGENT DIFFERENCE SCHEMES FOR A SINGULAR PERTURBATION PROBLEM OF A SELFADJOINT ORDINARY DIFFERENTIAL EQUATION

In this paper, we construct a class of difference schemes with fitted factors for a singular perturbation problem of a self-adjoint ordinary differential equation. Using a different method from [1], by analyzing the truncation errors of schemes, we give the sufficient conditions under which the solution of lite difference scheme converges uniformly to the solution of the differential equation. From this we propose several specific schemes under weaker conditions, and give much higher order of uniform convergence, and applying them to example, obtain the numerical results.

The Convergence of 1-Periodic Branched Continued Fraction of the Special Form in Parabolic Regions

Branched continued fractions are one of the multidimensional generalization of the continued fractions. Branched continued fractions with not equivalent variables are an analog of the regular C-fractions for multiple power series. We consider 1-periodic branched continued fraction of the special form which is an analog fraction with not equivalent variables if the values of that variables are fixed. We establish an analog of the parabola theorem for that fraction and estimate truncation error bounds for that fractions at some restrictions. We also propose to use weight coefficients for obtaining different parabolic regions for the same fraction without any additional restriction for first element.

The numerical result shows the pointwise convergence, too.

THE UNIQUENESS AND EXISTENCE OF SOLUTION OF THE CHABACTERISTIC PROBLEM ON THE GENERALIZED KdV EQUATION

The generalized KdV equation is a typical integr-able equation. It is derived studying the dissemination of magnet sound wave in coldplasma￣[2], Ihe isolated wave in transmission line￣[3], and the isolated wave in the bound-ary surface of the divided layer fluid￣[4]. For the characteristic problem of the gene-ralized KdV equation, this paper, based on the Riemann function, designs a suitablestructure, then changes the characteristic problem to an equivalent integral and dif-ferential equation whose corresponding fixed point, the above integral differential equ-ation has a unique regular solution, so the characteristic problem of the generalizedKdV equation has a. unique solution. The iteration solution derived from the integraldifferential equation sequence is uniformly convegent in.

High accuracy non-equidistant method for singular perturbation reaction-diffusion problem

Singular perturbation reaction-diffusion problem with Dirichlet boundary condition is considered. It is a multi-scale problem. Presence of small parameter leads to boundary layer phenomena in both sides of the region. A non-equidistant finite difference method is presented according to the property of boundary layer. The region is divided into an inner boundary layer region and an outer boundary layer region according to transition point of Shishkin. The steps sizes are equidistant in the outer boundary layer region. The step sizes are gradually increased in the inner boundary layer region such that half of the step sizes are different from each other. Truncation error is estimated. The proposed method is stable and uniformly convergent with the order higher than 2. Numerical results are given, which are in agreement with the theoretical result.
