    Local well-posedness of a viscoelastic fluid model for reactive polymers

    In this paper, we study the Cauchy problem of the two-species incompressible viscoelastic fluid of Oldroyd-B system, which involving a reaction effect between two species of polymers. We prove the local existence with initial data in Hk(k2) in a classical solution framework, and then provide a blow-up criteria. We concentrate on the a priori estimate, by using the energy method. In particular, the variant system in a general formulation is also studied, and the corresponding local well-posedness is established.

    STABILITY OF RELATIVISTIC PLASMA-VACUUM INTERFACES

    We study the plasma-vacuum interface problem in relativistic magnetohydrodynamics for the case when the plasma density does not go to zero continuously, but jumps. In the vacuum region, we consider the Maxwell equations for electric and magnetic fields. We show that a sufficiently large vacuum electric field can make the planar interface violently unstable. By using a suitable secondary symmetrization of the vacuum Maxwell equations, we find a sufficient condition that precludes violent instabilities. Under this condition, we derive an energy a priori estimate in the anisotropic weighted Sobolev space formula for the variable coefficients linearized problem for nonplanar plasma-vacuum interfaces.

    A priori estimates in Sobolev spaces for a class of hyperbolic operators in presence of transition

    We establish several a priori estimates of local or global nature in Sobolev spaces with general exponent s0 for a class of second-order hyperbolic operators with double characteristics in presence of a transition in a domain of the Euclidian space 3.

    Application of the Moser–Trudinger inequality in the construction of global solutions to a strongly degenerate migration model

    A no-flux initial-boundary value problem for the cross-diffusion system

    {ut=Δ(uϕ(v)),vt=Δvuv
    is considered in smoothly bounded domains Ωn with n2. It is shown that whenever ϕC0([0,)) is positive on (0,) and such that
    lim infξ0ϕ(ξ)ξα>0()
    for some α>0, for all suitably regular positive initial data a global very weak solution, particularly preserving mass in its first component, can be constructed. This extends previous results which either concentrate on non-degenerate analogs, or are restricted to the special case α=1.

    To appropriately cope with the considerably stronger cross-degeneracies thus allowed through () when α is large, in its core part the analysis relies on the use of the Moser–Trudinger inequality in controlling the respective diffusion rates ϕ(v) from below.

    On the solutions of an oxygen absorption model

    In this note we present the Adomian decomposition method for solving a simple model for the diffusion and absorption of oxygen in tissue. The method is examined for computational efficiency and accuracy.

    Mathematical modeling of building structures and nonlinear differential equations

    Nonlinear differential equations with moving singular points require emergence and development of new approximate methods of solution. In this paper, we give a solution to one of the problems of the analytical approximate method for solving nonlinear differential equations with moving singular points, and study the influence of the perturbation of the initial conditions on the analytical approximate solution in the analytic domain. Theoretical material was tested using a numerical experiment confirming its reliability. The theoretical material presented in this paper allows researchers to use nonlinear differential equations with moving singular points when designing mathematical models of building structures.

    Singularly perturbed problems for abstract differential equations of second order in Hilbert spaces

    In a real Hilbert space H we study the behavior of solutions uεδ to the following Cauchy problem

    formula
    where A : D(A) ⊂ HH is a linear, self-adjoint and positive definite operator; B : D(B) ⊂ HH is a nonlinear operator. The case when ε → 0, δ = 1, B is Lipschitz or monotone and the case when ε → 0, δ → 0, B = 0 are analyzed.
