Hyperbolicity of linear partial differential equations with delay
Robust hyperbolicity and stability results for linear partial differential
equations with delay will be given and, as an application, the effect of small
delays to the asymptotic properties of feedback systems will be analyzed
Parciális Funkcionáldifferenciálegyenletek = Partial differential equations with delay
A kutatási időszak első részében a monográfia befejezésével foglalkoztam. A matematikai eredmények legnagyobb része a késleltetett egyenletekhez tartozó megoldó-félcsoport aszimptotikus tulajdonságaival kapcsolatos. A Klaus-Jochen Engellel közösen írt cikkben szorzattereken ható operátorfélcsoportok exponenciális stabilitására sikerült absztrakt eredményeket elérni valamint a növekedési rátára becslést adni. Sikerült továbbá Charles Batty egy egy kérdését pozitívan megválaszolni a késleltetett félcsoportok differenciálhatóságával kapcsolatban. Csomós Petra doktorandusszal és Gregor Nickel (Siegen) professzorral a késleltetett és inhomogén egyenletek numerikus módszereivel foglalkoztunk. Megmutattuk a splitting konvergenciáját térbeli diszkretizáció jelenlétében. M. S. Elbialy (Toledo, Ohio) professzorral késleltetett egyenletek invariáns sokaságainek exisztenciáját vizsgáltuk általában ''gap condition'' jelenlétekor.

In a paper with K.-J. Engel we described the asymptics of some important special wave equations. A question of Charles Batty on the differentiability of delay semigroups was solved. We also investigated the operator splitting method in the presence of a spatial approximation and applied the method to delay equations. Spectral mapping properties of the delay semigroup and invariant manifolds for some nonlinear delay equations were also investigated
Operator splitting for nonautonomous delay equations
We provide a general product formula for the solution of nonautonomous
abstract delay equations. After having shown the convergence we obtain
estimates on the order of convergence for differentiable history functions.
Finally, the theoretical results are demonstrated on some typical numerical
examples.Comment: to appear in "Computers & Mathematics with Applications (CAMWA)
Operator splitting for dissipative delay equations
We investigate Lie-Trotter product formulae for abstract nonlinear evolution
equations with delay. Using results from the theory of nonlinear contraction
semigroups in Hilbert spaces, we explain the convergence of the splitting
procedure. The order of convergence is also investigated in detail, and some
numerical illustrations are presented.Comment: to appear in Semigroup Foru
Operator splitting with spatial-temporal discretization
Continuing earlier investigations, we analyze the convergence of operator
splitting procedures combined with spatial discretization and rational
approximations
Mathematik und Ethik: eine \"Uberlegung f\"ur zuk\"unftige Lehrpersonen
Mathematical modelling and ethics have more touching points than most of us
would like to admit. Everyday decisions are often reasoned by mathematical
arguments. Mathematics teachers belong to those mathematically literate, who
must point out mistakes in public discussions and reflect on them in their
teaching to educate students to become critical thinkers. Ethical questions
arise in mathematical modelling problems from two possible contexts. The first
question is what values are reflected in the modelling problem. The other
question is about the ethical implications of applying mathematical models to
real problems.Comment: in German languag
Stability and Convergence of Product Formulas for Operator Matrices
We present easy to verify conditions implying stability estimates for
operator matrix splittings which ensure convergence of the associated Trotter,
Strang and weighted product formulas. The results are applied to inhomogeneous
abstract Cauchy problems and to boundary feedback systems.Comment: to appear in Integral Equations and Operator Theory (ISSN: 1420-8989
Differential equation approximations of stochastic network processes: an operator semigroup approach
The rigorous linking of exact stochastic models to mean-field approximations
is studied. Starting from the differential equation point of view the
stochastic model is identified by its Kolmogorov equations, which is a system
of linear ODEs that depends on the state space size () and can be written as
. Our results rely on the convergence of the transition
matrices to an operator . This convergence also implies that the
solutions converge to the solution of . The limiting ODE
can be easily used to derive simpler mean-field-type models such that the
moments of the stochastic process will converge uniformly to the solution of
appropriately chosen mean-field equations. A bi-product of this method is the
proof that the rate of convergence is . In addition, it turns
out that the proof holds for cases that are slightly more general than the
usual density dependent one. Moreover, for Markov chains where the transition
rates satisfy some sign conditions, a new approach for proving convergence to
the mean-field limit is proposed. The starting point in this case is the
derivation of a countable system of ordinary differential equations for all the
moments. This is followed by the proof of a perturbation theorem for this
infinite system, which in turn leads to an estimate for the difference between
the moments and the corresponding quantities derived from the solution of the
mean-field ODE
