• Solution of the equations for one-dimensional, two-phase, immiscible flow
by geometric methods
• Authors: Ivan Boronin; Andrey Shevlyakov
Pages: 1 - 8
Abstract: Buckley–Leverett equations describe non viscous, immiscible, two-phase filtration, which is often of interest in modelling of oil production. For many parameters and initial conditions, the solutions of these equations exhibit non-smooth behaviour, namely discontinuities in form of shock waves. In this paper we obtain a novel method for the solution of Buckley–Leverett equations, which is based on geometry of differential equations. This method is fast, accurate, stable, and describes non-smooth phenomena. The main idea of the method is that classic discontinuous solutions correspond to the continuous surfaces in the space of jets - the so-called multi-valued solutions (Bocharov et al., Symmetries and conservation laws for differential equations of mathematical physics. American Mathematical Society, Providence, 1998). A mapping of multi-valued solutions from the jet space onto the plane of the independent variables is constructed. This mapping is not one-to-one, and its singular points form a curve on the plane of the independent variables, which is called the caustic. The real shock occurs at the points close to the caustic and is determined by the Rankine–Hugoniot conditions.

• Effects of zonal flows on correlation between energy balance and energy
conservation associated with nonlinear nonviscous atmospheric dynamics in
a thin rotating spherical shell
• Authors: Ranis N. Ibragimov
Pages: 11 - 24
Abstract: The nonlinear Euler equations are used to model two-dimensional atmosphere dynamics in a thin rotating spherical shell. The energy balance is deduced on the basis of two classes of functorially independent invariant solutions associated with the model. It it shown that the energy balance is exactly the conservation law for one class of the solutions whereas the second class of invariant solutions provides and asymptotic convergence of the energy balance to the conservation law.

• Absolute continuity on paths of spatial open discrete mappings
• Authors: Anatoly Golberg; Evgeny Sevost’yanov
Pages: 25 - 35
Abstract: We prove that open discrete mappings of Sobolev classes $$W_\mathrm{loc}^{1, p},$$ $$p>n-1,$$ with locally integrable inner dilatations admit $$ACP_p^{\,-1}$$ -property, which means that these mappings are absolutely continuous on almost all preimage paths with respect to p-module. In particular, our results extend the well-known Poletskiĭ lemma for quasiregular mappings. We also establish the upper bounds for p-module of such mappings in terms of integrals depending on the inner dilatations and arbitrary admissible functions.

• Convective wave breaking in the KdV equation
• Authors: Mats K. Brun; Henrik Kalisch
Pages: 57 - 75
Abstract: The KdV equation is a model equation for waves at the surface of an inviscid incompressible fluid, and it is well known that the equation describes the evolution of unidirectional waves of small amplitude and long wavelength fairly accurately if the waves fall into the Boussinesq regime. The KdV equation allows a balance of nonlinear steepening effects and dispersive spreading which leads to the formation of steady wave profiles in the form of solitary waves and cnoidal waves. While these wave profiles are solutions of the KdV equation for any amplitude, it is shown here that there for both the solitary and the cnoidal waves, there are critical amplitudes for which the horizontal component of the particle velocity matches the phase velocity of the wave. Solitary or cnoidal solutions of the KdV equation which surpass these amplitudes feature incipient wave breaking as the particle velocity exceeds the phase velocity near the crest of the wave, and the model breaks down due to violation of the kinematic surface boundary condition. The condition for breaking can be conveniently formulated as a convective breaking criterion based on the local Froude number at the wave crest. This breaking criterion can also be applied to time-dependent situations, and one case of interest is the development of an undular bore created by an influx at a lateral boundary. It is shown that this boundary forcing leads to wave breaking in the leading wave behind the bore if a certain threshold is surpassed.

• Evolution of states in a continuum migration model
• Authors: Yuri Kondratiev; Yuri Kozitsky
Pages: 93 - 121
Abstract: The Markov evolution of states of a continuum migration model is studied. The model describes an infinite system of entities placed in $${\mathbbm {R}}^d$$ in which the constituents appear (immigrate) with rate b(x) and disappear, also due to competition. For this model, we prove the existence of the evolution of states $$\mu _0 \mapsto \mu _t$$ such that the moments $$\mu _t(N_\Lambda ^n)$$ , $$n\in {\mathbbm {N}}$$ , of the number of entities in compact $$\Lambda \subset {\mathbbm {R}}^d$$ remain bounded for all $$t>0$$ . Under an additional condition, we prove that the density of entities and the second correlation function remain point-wise bounded globally in time.

• Liouville type theorems of a nonlinear elliptic equation for the V
-Laplacian
• Authors: Guangyue Huang; Zhi Li
Pages: 123 - 134
Abstract: In this paper, we consider Liouville type theorems for positive solutions to the following nonlinear elliptic equation: \begin{aligned} \Delta _V u+au\log u=0, \end{aligned} where a is a nonzero real constant. By using gradient estimates, we obtain upper bounds of $$\nabla u$$ with respect to $$\sup u$$ and the lower bound of Bakry-Emery Ricci curvature. In particular, for complete noncompact manifolds with $$a<0$$ , we prove that any positive solution must be $$u\equiv 1$$ under a suitable condition for a with respect to the lower bound of Bakry-Emery Ricci curvature. It generalizes a classical result of Yau.

• A partial inverse problem for the Sturm–Liouville operator on a
star-shaped graph
• Authors: Natalia P. Bondarenko
Pages: 155 - 168
Abstract: The Sturm–Liouville operator on a star-shaped graph is considered. We assume that the potential is known a priori on all the edges except one, and study the partial inverse problem, which consists in recovering the potential on the remaining edge from the part of the spectrum. A constructive method is developed for the solution of this problem, based on the Riesz-basicity of some sequence of vector functions. The local solvability of the inverse problem and the stability of its solution are proved.

• Self-adjoint realisations of the Dirac-Coulomb Hamiltonian for heavy
nuclei
• Authors: Matteo Gallone; Alessandro Michelangeli
Abstract: We derive a classification of the self-adjoint extensions of the three-dimensional Dirac-Coulomb operator in the critical regime of the Coulomb coupling. Our approach is solely based upon the Kreĭn-Višik-Birman extension scheme, or also on Grubb’s universal classification theory, as opposite to previous works within the standard von Neumann framework. This let the boundary condition of self-adjointness emerge, neatly and intrinsically, as a multiplicative constraint between regular and singular part of the functions in the domain of the extension, the multiplicative constant giving also immediate information on the invertibility property and on the resolvent and spectral gap of the extension.

• The adjoint of a composition operator via its action on the Szegő
kernel
• Authors: Steven R. Bell
Abstract: The adjoint of the classic composition operator on the Hardy space of the unit disc determined by a holomorphic self map of the unit disc is well known to send the Szegő kernel function associated to a point in the unit disc to the Szegő kernel associated to the image of that point under the self map. The purpose of this paper is to show that a constructive proof that holomorphic functions that extend past the boundary can be well approximated by complex linear combinations of the Szegő kernel function gives an explicit formula for the adjoint of a composition operator that yields a new way of looking at these objects and provides inspiration for new ways of thinking about operators that act on linear spans of the Szegő kernel. Composition operators associated to multivalued self mappings will arise naturally, and out of necessity. A parallel set of ideas will be applied to composition operators on the Bergman space.

• Infinitely many sign-changing solutions to Kirchhoff-type equations
• Authors: Zhaohong Sun; Youfa Lei
Abstract: In this paper we study the existence of multiple sign-changing solutions for the following nonlocal Kirchhoff-type boundary value problem: \begin{aligned} \left\{ \begin{array}{ll} -\left( a+b\int _{\Omega } \nabla u ^2{ dx}\right) \triangle {u}=\lambda u ^{p-1}u,&{}\quad \text{ in }\quad \Omega ,\\ u=0,&{} \quad \text{ on }\quad \partial \Omega . \\ \end{array}\right. \end{aligned} Using a new method, we prove that this problem has infinitely many sign-changing solutions and has a least energy sign-changing solution for $$p\in (3,5)$$ . Few existence results of multiple sign-changing solutions are available in the literature. This new method is that, by choosing some suitable subsets which separate the action functional and on which the functional is bounded, so that we can use genus and the method of invariant sets of descending flow to construct the minimax values of the functional. Our work generalize some results in literature.

• Computing the Douady–Earle extension using Kuramoto oscillators
Abstract: We demonstrate that the Douady–Earle extension can be computed by solving the specific set of ODE’s. This system of ODE’s has several interpretations in Mathematical Physics, such as Kuramoto model of coupled oscillators or Josephson junction arrays. This method emphasizes the key role of conformal barycenter in some theories of Mathematical Physics. On the other hand, it indicates that variations of Kuramoto model might be used in different problems of computational quasiconformal geometry. The idea can be extended to compute the D–E extension in higher dimensions as well.

• $$L^{p}$$ L p estimates for commutators of Riesz transforms associated
with Schrödinger operators on stratified groups
• Authors: Guowei Jiang; Yu Liu
Abstract: We consider the Schrödinger operator $$L = -\Delta _{G}+V$$ on the stratified Lie group G, where $$\Delta _{G}$$ is the sub-Laplacian and the nonnegative potential V belongs to the reverse Hölder class $$B_{q_{1}}$$ for $$q_1\ge \frac{Q}{2}$$ , where Q is the homogeneous dimension of G. Let $$q_2 = 1$$ when $$q_1\ge Q$$ and $$\frac{1}{q_2}=1-\frac{1}{q_1}+\frac{1}{Q}$$ when $$\frac{Q}{2}<q_1<Q$$ . The commutator $$[b,\mathcal {R}]$$ is generated by a function $$b\in \varLambda ^{\theta }_{\nu }(G)$$ for $$\theta >0,0<\nu <1$$ , where $$\varLambda ^{\theta }_{\nu }(G)$$ is a new function space on the stratified Lie group which is larger than the classical Companato space, and the Riesz transform $$\mathcal {R}=\nabla _{G}(-\Delta _{G}+V)^{-\frac{1}{2}}$$ . We prove that the commutator $$[b,\mathcal {R}]$$ is bounded from $$L^{p}(G)$$ into $$L^{q}(G)$$ for $$1<p<q^{'}_{2}$$ , where $$\frac{1}{q}=\frac{1}{p}-\frac{\nu }{Q}$$ .

• Extension results for harmonic functions which vanish on cylindrical
surfaces
• Authors: Stephen J. Gardiner; Hermann Render
Abstract: The Schwarz reflection principle applies to a harmonic function which continuously vanishes on a relatively open subset of a planar or spherical boundary surface. It yields a harmonic extension to a predefined larger domain and provides a simple formula for this extension. Although such a point-to-point reflection law is unavailable for other types of surface in higher dimensions, it is natural to investigate whether similar harmonic extension results still hold. This article describes recent progress on such results for the particular case of cylindrical surfaces, and concludes with several open questions.

• The range and valence of a real Smirnov function
• Authors: Timothy Ferguson; William T. Ross
Abstract: We give a complete description of the possible ranges of real Smirnov functions (quotients of two bounded analytic functions on the open unit disk where the denominator is outer and such that the radial boundary values are real almost everywhere on the unit circle). Our techniques use the theory of unbounded symmetric Toeplitz operators, some general theory of unbounded symmetric operators, classical Hardy spaces, and an application of the uniformization theorem. In addition, we completely characterize the possible valences for these real Smirnov functions when the valence is finite. To do so we construct Riemann surfaces we call disk trees by welding together copies of the unit disk and its complement in the Riemann sphere. We also make use of certain trees we call valence trees that mirror the structure of disk trees.
