The Cauchy problem for a class of two-dimensional nonlocal nonlinear wave equations governing anti-plane shear motions in elastic materials
This paper is concerned with the analysis of the Cauchy problem of a general
class of two-dimensional nonlinear nonlocal wave equations governing anti-plane
shear motions in nonlocal elasticity. The nonlocal nature of the problem is
reflected by a convolution integral in the space variables. The Fourier
transform of the convolution kernel is nonnegative and satisfies a certain
growth condition at infinity. For initial data in Sobolev spaces,
conditions for global existence or finite time blow-up of the solutions of the
Cauchy problem are established.Comment: 15 pages. "Section 6 The Anisotropic Case" added and minor changes.

Numerical Schemes for Rough Parabolic Equations
This paper is devoted to the study of numerical approximation schemes for a
class of parabolic equations on (0, 1) perturbed by a non-linear rough signal.
It is the continuation of [8, 7], where the existence and uniqueness of a
solution has been established. The approach combines rough paths methods with
standard considerations on discretizing stochastic PDEs. The results apply to a
geometric 2-rough path, which covers the case of the multidimensional
fractional Brownian motion with Hurst index H \textgreater{} 1/3.Comment: Applied Mathematics and Optimization, 201
Optimal Convergence Rates for Tikhonov Regularization in Besov Scales
In this paper we deal with linear inverse problems and convergence rates for
Tikhonov regularization. We consider regularization in a scale of Banach
spaces, namely the scale of Besov spaces. We show that regularization in Banach
scales differs from regularization in Hilbert scales in the sense that it is
possible that stronger source conditions may lead to weaker convergence rates
and vive versa. Moreover, we present optimal source conditions for
regularization in Besov scales
Time-averaging for weakly nonlinear CGL equations with arbitrary potentials
Consider weakly nonlinear complex Ginzburg--Landau (CGL) equation of the
form: under the periodic boundary conditions, where and
is a smooth function. Let be
the -basis formed by eigenfunctions of the operator . For a
complex function , write it as and
set . Then for any solution of the linear
equation we have . In this work it is
proved that if equation with a sufficiently smooth real potential
is well posed on time-intervals , then for any its
solution , the limiting behavior of the curve
on time intervals of order , as
, can be uniquely characterized by a solution of a certain
well-posed effective equation:
where is a resonant averaging of the nonlinearity . We
also prove a similar results for the stochastically perturbed equation, when a
white in time and smooth in random force of order is added
to the right-hand side of the equation.
The approach of this work is rather general. In particular, it applies to
equations in bounded domains in under Dirichlet boundary conditions
Stochastic Reaction-diffusion Equations Driven by Jump Processes
We establish the existence of weak martingale solutions to a class of second
order parabolic stochastic partial differential equations. The equations are
driven by multiplicative jump type noise, with a non-Lipschitz multiplicative
functional. The drift in the equations contains a dissipative nonlinearity of
polynomial growth.Comment: See journal reference for teh final published versio
A Class of Non-Parametric Statistical Manifolds modelled on Sobolev Space
We construct a family of non-parametric (infinite-dimensional) manifolds of finite measures on Rd. The manifolds are modelled on a variety of weighted Sobolev spaces, including Hilbert-Sobolev spaces and mixed-norm spaces. Each supports the Fisher-Rao metric as a weak Riemannian metric. Densities are expressed in terms of a deformed exponential function having linear growth. Unusually for the Sobolev context, and as a consequence of its linear growth, this "lifts" to a nonlinear superposition (Nemytskii) operator that acts continuously on a particular class of mixed-norm model spaces, and on the fixed norm space W²'¹ i.e. it maps each of these spaces continuously into itself. It also maps continuously between other fixed-norm spaces with a loss of Lebesgue exponent that increases with the number of derivatives. Some of the results make essential use of a log-Sobolev embedding theorem. Each manifold contains a smoothly embedded submanifold of probability measures. Applications to the stochastic partial differential equations of nonlinear filtering (and hence to the Fokker-Planck equation) are outlined
Regularity of the Solutions to SPDEs in Metric Measure Spaces
In this paper we study the regularity of non-linear parabolic PDEs and stochastic PDEs on metric measure spaces admitting heat kernel estimates. In particular we consider mild function solutions to abstract Cauchy problems and show that the unique solution is Hölder continuous in time with values in a suitable fractional Sobolev space. As this analysis is done via a-priori estimates, we can apply this result to stochastic PDEs on metric measure spaces and solve the equation in a pathwise sense for almost all paths. The main example of noise term is of fractional Brownian type and the metric measure spaces can be classical as well as given by various fractal structures. The whole approach is low dimensional and works for spectral dimensions less than 4
Sobolev spaces on non-Lipschitz subsets of Rn with application to boundary integral equations on fractal screens
We study properties of the classical fractional Sobolev spaces on non-Lipschitz subsets of Rn. We investigate the extent to which the properties of these spaces, and the relations between them, that hold in the well-studied case of a Lipschitz open set, generalise to non-Lipschitz cases. Our motivation is to develop the functional analytic framework in which to formulate and analyse integral equations on non-Lipschitz sets. In particular we consider an application to boundary integral equations for wave scattering by planar screens that are non-Lipschitz, including cases where the screen is fractal or has fractal boundary
Analysis of segregated boundary-domain integral equations for BVPs with non-smooth coefficients on Lipschitz domains
Segregated direct boundary-domain integral equations (BDIEs) based on a parametrix and associated with the Dirichlet and Neumann boundary value problems for the linear stationary diffusion partial differential equation with a variable Hölder-continuous coefficients on Lipschitz domains are formulated. The PDE right-hand sides belong to the Sobolev (Bessel potential) space Hs−2(Ω ) or H˜s−2(Ω ) , 12<s<32, when neither strong classical nor weak canonical co-normal derivatives are well defined. Equivalence of the BDIEs to the original BVP, BDIE solvability, solution uniqueness/non-uniqueness, and the Fredholm property and invertibility of the BDIE operators are analysed in appropriate Sobolev spaces. It is shown that the BDIE operators for the Neumann BVP are not invertible; however, some finite-dimensional perturbations are constructed leading to invertibility of the perturbed (stabilised) operators.EPSR
