Direct localized boundary-domain integro-differential formulations for physically nonlinear elasticity of inhomogeneous body
A static mixed boundary value problem (BVP) of physically nonlinear elasticity for a continuously inhomogeneous body is considered. Using the two-operator Green-Betti formula and the fundamental solution of an auxiliary linear operator, a non-standard boundary-domain integro-differential formulation of the problem is presented, with respect to the displacements and their gradients. Using a cut-off function approach, the corresponding localized parametrix is constructed to reduce the nonlinear BVP to a nonlinear localized boundary-domain integro-differential equation. Algorithms of mesh-based and mesh-less discretizations are presented resulting in sparsely populated systems of nonlinear algebraic equations
Landau singularities and singularities of holonomic integrals of the Ising class
We consider families of multiple and simple integrals of the ``Ising class''
and the linear ordinary differential equations with polynomial coefficients
they are solutions of. We compare the full set of singularities given by the
roots of the head polynomial of these linear ODE's and the subset of
singularities occurring in the integrals, with the singularities obtained from
the Landau conditions. For these Ising class integrals, we show that the Landau
conditions can be worked out, either to give the singularities of the
corresponding linear differential equation or the singularities occurring in
the integral. The singular behavior of these integrals is obtained in the
self-dual variable , with , where is the
usual Ising model coupling constant. Switching to the variable , we show
that the singularities of the analytic continuation of series expansions of
these integrals actually break the Kramers-Wannier duality. We revisit the
singular behavior (J. Phys. A {\bf 38} (2005) 9439-9474) of the third
contribution to the magnetic susceptibility of Ising model at the
points and show that is not singular at the
corresponding points inside the unit circle , while its analytical
continuation in the variable is actually singular at the corresponding
points oustside the unit circle ().Comment: 34 pages, 1 figur
Ising n-fold integrals as diagonals of rational functions and integrality of series expansions: integrality versus modularity
We show that the n-fold integrals of the magnetic susceptibility
of the Ising model, as well as various other n-fold integrals of the "Ising
class", or n-fold integrals from enumerative combinatorics, like lattice Green
functions, are actually diagonals of rational functions. As a consequence, the
power series expansions of these solutions of linear differential equations
"Derived From Geometry" are globally bounded, which means that, after just one
rescaling of the expansion variable, they can be cast into series expansions
with integer coefficients. Besides, in a more enumerative combinatorics
context, we show that generating functions whose coefficients are expressed in
terms of nested sums of products of binomial terms can also be shown to be
diagonals of rational functions. We give a large set of results illustrating
the fact that the unique analytical solution of Calabi-Yau ODEs, and more
generally of MUM ODEs, is, almost always, diagonal of rational functions. We
revisit Christol's conjecture that globally bounded series of G-operators are
necessarily diagonals of rational functions. We provide a large set of examples
of globally bounded series, or series with integer coefficients, associated
with modular forms, or Hadamard product of modular forms, or associated with
Calabi-Yau ODEs, underlying the concept of modularity. We finally address the
question of the relations between the notion of integrality (series with
integer coefficients, or, more generally, globally bounded series) and the
modularity (in particular integrality of the Taylor coefficients of mirror
map), introducing new representations of Yukawa couplings.Comment: 100 page
Numerical solution and spectrum of boundary-domain integral equation for the Neumann BVP with variable coefficient
This is the post-print version of the Article. The official published version can be accessed from the link below - Copyright @ 2012 Taylor & Francis.In this paper, a numerical implementation of a direct united boundary-domain integral equation (BDIE) related to the Neumann boundary value problem for a scalar elliptic partial differential equation with a variable coefficient is discussed. The BDIE is reduced to a uniquely solvable one by adding an appropriate perturbation operator. The mesh-based discretization of the BDIEs with quadrilateral domain elements leads to a system of linear algebraic equations (discretized BDIE). Then, the system is solved by LU decomposition and Neumann iterations. Convergence of the iterative method is discussed in relation to the distribution of eigenvalues of the corresponding discrete operators calculated numerically.The work was supported by the grant EP/H020497/1 "Mathematical analysis of localised boundary-domain integral equations for BVPs with variable coefficients" of the EPSRC, UK
The sixth Painleve transcendent and uniformization of algebraic curves
We exhibit a remarkable connection between sixth equation of Painleve list
and infinite families of explicitly uniformizable algebraic curves. Fuchsian
equations, congruences for group transformations, differential calculus of
functions and differentials on corresponding Riemann surfaces, Abelian
integrals, analytic connections (generalizations of Chazy's equations), and
other attributes of uniformization can be obtained for these curves. As
byproducts of the theory, we establish relations between Picard-Hitchin's
curves, hyperelliptic curves, punctured tori, Heun's equations, and the famous
differential equation which Apery used to prove the irrationality of Riemann's
zeta(3).Comment: Final version. Numerous improvements; English, 49 pages, 1 table, no
