Asymptotics of Solutions for Nonlocal Elliptic Problems in Plane Angles

In this paper we study the question whether an arbitrary function on a manifold may be approximated by solutions of a non-local boundary value problem for an elliptic equation of order 2m with discontinuous coefficients (the precise statement of the question is given in Section 3). Such questions for usual elliptic boundary value problems were studied by many authors since 1960 (see [1], [2], [3], [10], [11] and their references). The mentioned non-local elliptic problems are studied since 1970 when they were introduced by Ya. Roitberg and the author in [4]; similar problems arise for instance in magnetohydrodynamics. The definition of such problems is given in Section 2.

It is establish existence and multiplicity of solutions for nonlocal elliptic problems where the nonlinearity is driven by two convolutions terms. More specifically, we shall consider the following Choquard type problem: { − Δ u + V ( x ) u = μ ( I α 1 ∗ | u | q ) | u | q − 2 u − λ ( I α 2 ∗ | u | p ) | u | p − 2 u in R N , u ∈ H 1 ( R N ) , where p > q , λ , μ > 0 , α 1 ≤ α 2 ; α 1 , α 2 ∈ ( 0 , N ) , N ≥ 3 ; p ∈ ( 2 α 2 , 2 α 2 ∗ ) ; q ∈ ( 2 α 1 , 2 α 1 ∗ ) , 2 α j = ( N + α j ) / N and 2 α j ∗ = ( N + α j ) / ( N − 2 ) , j = 1 , 2 . Here we employ some variational arguments together with the Nehari method and the nonlinear Rayleigh quotient. The main feature in the present work is to find a sharp μ n > 0 and λ ∗ , λ ∗ > 0 such that our main problem admits at least two solutions for each μ > μ n where λ ∈ ( 0 , min ( λ ∗ , λ ∗ ) ) . The main difficulty here is to prove that the infimum associated to the energy functional restricted to the Nehari set is a weak solution for our main problem. This phenomenon occurs since the fibering maps for the associated energy functional have inflection points. Furthermore, we prove a nonexistence result for our main problem for each μ < μ n and λ > 0 .

An elliptic equation of order 2m with general nonlocal boundary-value conditions, in a plane bounded domain G with piecewise smooth boundary, is considered. Generalized solutions belonging to the Sobolev space W 2 m (G) are studied. The Fredholm property of the unbounded operator (corresponding to the elliptic equation) acting on L 2(G), and defined for functions from the space W 2 m (G) that satisfy homogeneous nonlocal conditions, is established.

On topological degree for pseudomonotone operators in fractional Orlicz-Sobolev spaces: study of positive solutions of non-local elliptic problems

In this paper, we consider nonlocal elliptic problems in dihedral and plane angles. Such problems arise in the study of nonlocal problems in bounded domains for the case in which the support of nonlocal terms intersects the boundary. We study the Fredholm and unique solvability of this problem in the corresponding weighted spaces. Results are obtained by means of a priori estimates of the solutions and of Green's formula for nonlocal elliptic problems.

In this paper we consider 2D nonlocal diffusion models with a finite nonlocal horizon parameterδcharacterizing the range of nonlocal interactions, and consider the treatment of Neumann-like boundary conditions that have proven challenging for discretizations of nonlocal models. We propose a new generalization of classical local Neumann conditions by converting the local flux to a correction term in the nonlocal model, which provides an estimate for the nonlocal interactions of each point with points outside the domain. While existing 2D nonlocal flux boundary conditions have been shown to exhibit at most first order convergence to the local counter part asδ → 0, the proposed Neumann-type boundary formulation recovers the local case asO(δ2) in theL∞(Ω) norm, which is optimal considering theO(δ2) convergence of the nonlocal equation to its local limit away from the boundary. We analyze the application of this new boundary treatment to the nonlocal diffusion problem, and present conditions under which the solution of the nonlocal boundary value problem converges to the solution of the corresponding local Neumann problem as the horizon is reduced. To demonstrate the applicability of this nonlocal flux boundary condition to more complicated scenarios, we extend the approach to less regular domains, numerically verifying that we preserve second-order convergence for non-convex domains with corners. Based on the new formulation for nonlocal boundary condition, we develop an asymptotically compatible meshfree discretization, obtaining a solution to the nonlocal diffusion equation with mixed boundary conditions that converges withO(δ2) convergence.

In this paper, we consider a nonlocal problem. It is used in the rectangular area. For this problem, a difference problem is constructed, based on a rectangular grid. The error of theapproximatesolutionsfor a nonlocal problemis estimated. Many applied problems, in particular heat conductivity [1], [2], fluid mechanics [3], the theory of elasticity and shells [4], etc. are reduced to solving nonlocal boundary value problems for elliptical type equations. When solving nonlocal boundaryvalueproblems, nonlocal boundaryconditions complicate the justification of finite difference schemes due to the complexity of matrices obtained from systemsof equation.This complexity is especially evident for numerical methods, fornon-linear equations[5]. Here we consider a nonlocal boundary value problem for a quasi-linear equation. To solve the problem numerically we use the finite difference method. The error estimate of the approximate solution of the nonlocal problem is found.

Perhaps the most ubiquitous phenomena associated with electrostatically actuated MEMS devices is the `pull-in' voltage instability. In this instability, when applied voltages are increased beyond a certain critical voltage there is no longer a steady-state configuration of the device where mechanical members remain separate. This instability severely restricts the range of stable operation of many devices. Here, a mathematical model of an idealized electrostatically actuated MEMS device is constructed for the purpose of analyzing various schemes proposed for the control of the pull-in instability. This embedding of a device into a control circuit gives rise to a nonlinear and nonlocal elliptic problem which is analyzed through a variety of asymptotic, analytical, and numerical techniques. The pull-in voltage instability is characterized in terms of the bifurcation diagram for the mathematical model. Variations in various capacitive control schemes are shown to give rise to variations in the bifurcation diagram and hence to effect the pull-in voltage and pull-in distance.

We deduce isoperimetric estimates for solutions of linear stationary and evolution problems. Our main result establishes the comparison in norm between the solution of a problem and its symmetric version when nonlocal diffusion defined through integrable kernels is replacing the usual local diffusion defined by a second order differential operator. Since an appropriate kernel rescaling allows to define a sequence of solutions of the nonlocal diffusion problems converging to their local diffusion counterparts, we also find the corresponding isoperimetric inequalities for the latter, i.e. we prove the classical Talenti's theorem. The novelty of our approach is that we replace the measure geometric tools employed in Talenti's proof, such as the geometric isoperimetric inequality or the coarea formula, by the Riesz's rearrangement inequality. Thus, in addition to providing a proof for the nonlocal diffusion case, our technique also introduces an alternative proof to Talenti's theorem.

ABSTRACTIn this study, we explore volume constrained nonlocal problem with integrable kernels. A central challenge addressed is the discontinuity of true solutions across the boundary, posing difficulties for designing efficient numerical methods. To address this issue, we introduce an auxiliary function which serves as the solution of an auxiliary problem. This approach effectively transforms the original problem to a new nonlocal problem with a true solution which is continuous across the boundary. We propose two numerical schemes to solve the new nonlocal problem: one is exclusively applicable to one‐dimensional case, while the other is suitable for general dimensional cases. Experimental results show that both schemes exhibit optimal convergence order under mild condition.

Positive solutions for a nonlinear nonlocal elliptic transmission problem

In this paper, the numerical solutions of the backward and forward non-homogeneous wave problems are derived to address the nonlocal boundary conditions. When boundary conditions are not set on the boundaries, numerical instability occurs, and the solution may have a significant boundary error. For this reason, it is challenging to solve such nonlinear problems by conventional numerical methods. First, we derive a nonlocal boundary shape function (NLBSF) from incorporating the Pascal triangle as free functions; hence, the new, two-parameter Pascal bases are created to automatically satisfy the specified conditions for the solution. To satisfy the wave equation in the domain by the collocation method, the solution of the forward nonlocal wave problem can be quickly obtained with high precision. For the backward nonlocal wave problem, we construct the corresponding NLBSF and Pascal bases, which exactly implement two final time conditions, a left-boundary condition and a nonlocal boundary condition; in addition, the numerical method for the backward nonlocal wave problem under two-side, nonlocal boundary conditions is also developed. Nine numerical examples, including forward and backward problems, are tested, demonstrating that this scheme is more effective and stable. Even for boundary conditions with a large noise at final time, the solution recovered in the entire domain for the backward nonlocal wave problem is accurate and stable. The accuracy and efficiency of the method are validated by comparing the estimation results with the existing literature.

The aim of the paper is to prove an uniqueness criterion for a solution of an abstract nonlocal Cauchy problem. A dissipative operator in the nonlocal problem and an arbitrary functional in the nonlocal condition are considered. The paper is a continuation of papers [1]‐[3] and generalizes some results from [4].

A nonlocal boundary value problem for a third-order hyperbolic equation with variable coefficients is considered in the one- and multidimensional cases. A priori estimates for the nonlocal problem are obtained in the differential and difference formulations. The estimates imply the stability of the solution with respect to the initial data and the right-hand side on a layer and the convergence of the difference solution to the solution of the differential problem.

The author consider initial-boundary value problem for a system of differential equations in partial derivatives of third order. We study questions of existence and uniqueness of classical solution of the problem, and ways for its evaluation. The introduction of a new desired function enables us to reduce the problem to equivalent nonlocal problem with integral condition for a system of integro-differential euqtions of hyperbolic type with a functional relation. We establish conditions for unique solvability of the nonlocal problem by means of the method of functional parameters, propose algorithms for solving of the equivalent problem and prove their convergence. As a result, there are obtained conditions for existence of unique classical solution of initial-boundary value problem for the considered system of differential equations of third order in terms of initial data.
