Clustered spots in the FitzHugh-Nagumo system
No full textWe construct {\bf clustered} spots for the following FitzHugh-Nagumo system:
\left\{\begin{array}{l}\ep^2\Delta u +f(u)-\delta v =0\quad \mbox{in} \ \Om,\\[2mm]\Delta v+ u=0 \quad \mbox{in} \ \Om,\\[2mm] u= v =0
\quad\mbox{on} \ \partial \Om, \end{array} \right.
where \Om is a smooth and bounded domain in . More precisely, we show that for any given integer , there exists an \ep_{K}>0 such that for 0<\ep <\ep_K,\, \ep^{m^{'}} \leq \delta \leq \ep^m for some positive numbers ,
there exists a solution (u_{\ep},v_{\ep}) to the FitzHugh-Nagumo system with the property that u_{\ep} has spikes Q_{1}^\ep, ..., Q_K^\ep and the following holds: (i) The center of the cluster \frac{1}{K} \sum_{i=1}^K Q_i^\ep approaches a hotspot point Q_0\in\Om. (ii)
Set l^\ep=\min_{i \not = j} |Q_i^\ep -Q_j^\ep| =\frac{1}{\sqrt{a}} \log\left(\frac{1}{\delta \ep^2 }\right) \ep ( 1+o(1)). Then (\frac{1}{l^\ep} Q_1^\ep, ..., \frac{1}{l^\ep} Q_K^\ep) approaches an optimal configuration of the following problem: {\it Given points with minimum distance , find out the optimal configuration that minimizes the functional }
Standing Waves in the FitzHugh-Nagumo System and a Problem in Combinatorial Geometry
No full textWe show that there is a close relation between standing-wave solutions for the FitzHugh-Nagumo system
\Delta u +u(u-a)(1-u) - \delta v=0, \ \ \Delta v-\delta \gamma v + u=0 \ \ \mbox{in} \ R^N,
u, v \to 0 \ \mbox{as} \ |x| \to +\infty
where and , and the following combinatorial problem:
{\it Given points with minimum distance , find out the maximum number of times that the minimum distance can occur. }
More precisely, we show that for any given positive integer , there exists a such that for , there exists a standing-wave solution to the FitzHugh-Nagumo system with the property that has spikes and approaches an optimal configuration in (*), where
Bansella Fitzhugh, 2010, gen. nov.
No full textBansella, gen. nov. Type species (by present designation): Fabricia oregonica Banse, 1956. Definition. There is no phylogenetic hypothesis to which Bansella refers (see Fitzhugh 2008 b). To satisfy ICZN requirements, the following list of characters form a unique combination among individuals to which this name applies: (1) prominent, anterior peristomial ring lobe, (2) triangular dorsal lips, (3) pigmented spermathecae in branchial lobes, (4) inferior thoracic notochaetae narrowly hooded in all chaetigers (see also Remarks section below, under Bansella oregonica (Banse), comb. nov. ). Etymology. The genus is named in honor of Dr. Karl Banse, who made numerous and significant contributions to the systematics of Fabriciinae sabellids. Remarks. Bansella is a monotypic genus, with B. oregonica, comb. nov., as the only species. The purely utilitarian justification for erecting yet another monotypic genus (see also Monroika Hartman, 1951, Pseudofabricia Cantone, 1972, Parafabricia Fitzhugh, 1992, Brifacia Fitzhugh, 1998, and Raficiba Fitzhugh, 2001) in the subfamily will be discussed below (Justification for the recognition of Bansella ).Published as part of Fitzhugh, Kirk, 2010, Revised systematics of Fabricia oregonica Banse, 1956 (Polychaeta: Sabellidae: Fabriciinae): an example of the need for a uninomial nomenclatural system, pp. 35-50 in Zootaxa 2647 on page 38, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.19870
