ANALYSIS AND DISCRETIZATION FOR AN OPTIMAL CONTROL PROBLEM OF A VARIABLE-COEFFICIENT RIESZ-FRACTIONAL DIFFUSION EQUATION WITH POINTWISE CONTROL CONSTRAINTS

We present a mathematical and numerical study for a pointwise optimal control problem governed by a variable-coefficient Riesz-fractional diffusion equation.Due to the impact of the variable diffusivity coefficient,existing regularity results for their constantcoefficient counterparts do not apply,while the bilinear forms of the state(adjoint)equation may lose the coercivity that is critical in error estimates of the finite element method.We reformulate the state equation as an equivalent constant-coefficient fractional diffusion equation with the addition of a variable-coefficient low-order fractional advection term.First order optimality conditions are accordingly derived and the smoothing properties of the solutions are analyzed by,e.g.,interpolation estimates.The weak coercivity of the resulting bilinear forms are proven via the Garding inequality,based on which we prove the optimal-order convergence estimates of the finite element method for the(adjoint)state variable and the control variable.Numerical experiments substantiate the theoretical predictions.

Darboux transformation,infinite conservation laws,and exact solutions for the nonlocal Hirota equation with variable coefficients

This article presents the construction of a nonlocal Hirota equation with variable coefficients and its Darboux transformation.Using zero-seed solutions,1-soliton and 2-soliton solutions of the equation are constructed through the Darboux transformation,along with the expression for N-soliton solutions.Influence of coefficients that are taken as a function of time instead of a constant,i.e.,coefficient functionδ(t),on the solutions is investigated by choosing the coefficient functionδ(t),and the dynamics of the solutions are analyzed.This article utilizes the Lax pair to construct infinite conservation laws and extends it to nonlocal equations.The study of infinite conservation laws for nonlocal equations holds significant implications for the integrability of nonlocal equations.

Nondegenerate solitons of the(2+1)-dimensional coupled nonlinear Schrodinger equations with variable coefficients in nonlinear optical fibers

We derive the multi-hump nondegenerate solitons for the(2+1)-dimensional coupled nonlinear Schrodinger equations with propagation distance dependent diffraction,nonlinearity and gain(loss)using the developing Hirota bilinear method,and analyze the dynamical behaviors of these nondegenerate solitons.The results show that the shapes of the nondegenerate solitons are controllable by selecting different wave numbers,varying diffraction and nonlinearity parameters.In addition,when all the variable coefficients are chosen to be constant,the solutions obtained in this study reduce to the shape-preserving nondegenerate solitons.Finally,it is found that the nondegenerate two-soliton solutions can be bounded to form a double-hump two-soliton molecule after making the velocity of one double-hump soliton resonate with that of the other one.

Identification of variable coefficients for vibrating systems by boundary control and observation

We consider the identification problem of coefficients for vibrating systems described by a Euler-Bernoulli beam eq~. ation Or a string equation, with one end clamped and with an input exerted on the other end. For the beam equation, the observations are the velocity and the angle velocity at the free end, while for the string equation, the observation is the velocity at the free end. In the framework of well-posed linear system theory, we show that both the density and the flexural rigidity of the beam, and the tension of the string, can be uniquely determined by the observations for all positive times. Moreover, a general constructive method is developed to show that the mass density and the elastic modulus of the string are not determined by the observation.

A numerical method based on boundary integral equations and radial basis functions for plane anisotropic thermoelastostatic equations with general variable coefficients

A boundary integral method with radial basis function approximation is proposed for numerically solving an important class of boundary value problems governed by a system of thermoelastostatic equations with variable coe?cients. The equations describe the thermoelastic behaviors of nonhomogeneous anisotropic materials with properties that vary smoothly from point to point in space. No restriction is imposed on the spatial variations of the thermoelastic coe?cients as long as all the requirements of the laws of physics are satis?ed. To check the validity and accuracy of the proposed numerical method, some speci?c test problems with known solutions are solved.

NEW TRUNCATED EXPANSION METHOD AND SOLITON-LIKE SOLUTION OF VARIABLE COEFFICIENT KdV-MKdV EQUATION WITH THREE ARBITRARY FUNCTIONS

The truncated expansion method for finding explicit and exact soliton-like solution of variable coefficient nonlinear evolution equation was described. The crucial idea of the method was first the assumption that coefficients of the truncated expansion formal solution are functions of time satisfying a set of algebraic equations, and then a set of ordinary different equations of undetermined functions that can be easily integrated were obtained. The simplicity and effectiveness of the method by application to a general variable coefficient KdV-MKdV equation with three arbitrary functions of time is illustrated.

Variable coefficient nonlinear systems derived from an atmospheric dynamical system

Variable coefficient nonlinear systems, the Korteweg de Vries （KdV）, the modified KdV （mKdV） and the nonlinear Schrǒdinger （NLS） type equations, are derived from the nonlinear inviscid barotropic nondivergent vorticity equation in a beta-plane by means of the multi-scale expansion method in two different ways, with and without the so-called y-average trick. The non-auto-Bǎcklund transformations are found to transform the derived variable coefficient equations to the corresponding standard KdV, mKdV and NLS equations. Thus, many possible exact solutions can be obtained by taking advantage of the known solutions of these standard equations. Further, many approximate solutions of the original model are ready to be yielded which might be applied to explain some real atmospheric phenomena, such as atmospheric blocking episodes.
