Analytic regularity for a singularly perturbed system of reaction-diffusion equations with multiple scales: proofs
We consider a coupled system of two singularly perturbed reaction-diffusion
equations, with two small parameters , each
multiplying the highest derivative in the equations. The presence of these
parameters causes the solution(s) to have \emph{boundary layers} which overlap
and interact, based on the relative size of and . We
construct full asymptotic expansions together with error bounds that cover the
complete range . For the present case of analytic
input data, we derive derivative growth estimates for the terms of the
asymptotic expansion that are explicit in the perturbation parameters and the
expansion order

A high frequency boundary element method for scattering by convex polygons
In this paper we propose and analyze a hybrid boundary element method for the solution of problems of high frequency acoustic scattering by sound-soft convex polygons, in which the approximation space is enriched with oscillatory basis functions which efficiently capture the high frequency asymptotics of the solution. We demonstrate, both theoretically and via numerical examples, exponential convergence with respect to the order of the polynomials, moreover providing rigorous error estimates for our approximations to the solution and to the far field pattern, in which the dependence on the frequency of all constants is explicit. Importantly, these estimates prove that, to achieve any desired accuracy in the computation of these quantities, it is sufficient to increase the number of degrees of freedom in proportion to the logarithm of the frequency as the frequency increases, in contrast to the at least linear growth required by conventional methods
Scalable numerical approach for the steady-state ab initio laser theory
We present an efficient and flexible method for solving the non-linear lasing
equations of the steady-state ab initio laser theory. Our strategy is to solve
the underlying system of partial differential equations directly, without the
need of setting up a parametrized basis of constant flux states. We validate
this approach in one-dimensional as well as in cylindrical systems, and
demonstrate its scalability to full-vector three-dimensional calculations in
photonic-crystal slabs. Our method paves the way for efficient and accurate
simulations of lasing structures which were previously inaccessible.Comment: 17 pages, 8 figure
The upper triangular solutions to the three-state constant quantum Yang-Baxter equation
In this article we present all nonsingular upper triangular solutions to the
constant quantum Yang-Baxter equation
in the three state
case, i.e. all indices ranging from 1 to 3. The upper triangular ansatz implies
729 equations for 45 variables. Fortunately many of the equations turned out to
be simple allowing us to start breaking the problem into smaller ones. In the
end we had a total of 552 solutions, but many of them were either inherited
from two-state solutions or subcases of others. The final list contains 35
nontrivial solutions, most of them new.Comment: 24 Pages in LaTe
Permutation-type solutions to the Yang-Baxter and other n-simplex equations
We study permutation type solutions to n-simplex equations, that is,
solutions whose R matrix can be written as a product of delta- functions
depending linearly on the indices. With this ansatz the D^{n(n+1)} equations of
the n-simplex equation reduce to an [n(n+1)/2+1]x[n(n+1)/2+1] matrix equation
over Z_D. We have completely analyzed the 2-, 3- and 4-simplex equations in the
generic D case. The solutions show interesting patterns that seem to continue
to still higher simplex equations.Comment: 20 pages, LaTeX2e. to appear in J. Phys. A: Math. Gen. (1997
On thin plate spline interpolation
We present a simple, PDE-based proof of the result [M. Johnson, 2001] that
the error estimates of [J. Duchon, 1978] for thin plate spline interpolation
can be improved by . We illustrate that -matrix
techniques can successfully be employed to solve very large thin plate spline
