    No full text
    summary:In this note we prove the existence of extremal solutions of the quasilinear Neumann problem (x(t)p2x(t))=f(t,x(t),x(t))-( \vert x^{^{\prime }}(t) \vert ^{p-2}x^{^{\prime }}(t))^{^{\prime }} = f(t,x(t),x ^{^{\prime }}(t)), a.e. on TT, x(0)=x(b)=0x^{^{\prime }}(0) = x^{^{\prime }}(b) =0, 2p<2\le p < \infty in the order interval [ψ,φ][\psi ,\varphi ], where ψ\psi and φ\varphi are respectively a lower and an upper solution of the Neumann problem

    On The Two Dimensional Gierer-Meinhardt system with strong coupling

    No full text
    We construct solutions with a single interior condensation point for the two-dimensional Gierer-Meinhardt system with strong coupling. The condensation point is located at a nondegenerate critical point of the diagonal part of the regular part of the Green's function for -\Delta +1 nder the Neumann boundary condition. Our method is based on Liapunov-Schmidt reduction for a system of elliptic equations

    Three nontrivial solutions for the p-Laplacian Neumann problems with a concave nonlinearity near the origin

    No full text
    We consider a nonlinear Neumann problem driven by the p- Laplacian, with a right-hand side nonlinearity which is concave near the origin. Using variational techniques, combined with the method of upper-lower solutions and with Morse theory, we show that the problem has at least three nontrivial smooth solutions, two of which have a constant sign (one positive and one negative).FCTPOCI/MAT/55524/200

    Mean Curvature Flow with a Neumann Boundary Condition in Flat Spaces

    No full text
    In this thesis I study mean curvature flow in both Euclidean and Minkowski space with a Neumann boundary condition. In Minkowski space I show that for a convex timelike cone boundary condition, with compatible spacelike initial data, mean curvature flow with a perpendicular Neumann boundary condition exists for all time. Furthermore, by a blowdown argument I show convergence as t →∞ to a homothetically expanding hyperbolic hyperplane. I also study the case of graphs over convex domains in Minkowski space. I obtain long time existence for spacelike initial graphs which are taken by mean curvature flow with a Neumann boundary condition to a constant function as t →∞. In Euclidean space I consider boundary manifolds that are rotational tori where I write t for the unit vector field in the direction of the rotation. If the initial manifold M₀ is compatible with the boundary condition, and at no point has t as a tangent vector, then mean curvature flow with a perpendicular Neumann boundary condition exists for all time and converges to a flat cross-section of the boundary torus. I also discuss other constant angle boundary conditions

    The von Neumann Model and the Early Models of General Equilibrium

    No full text
    The paper reconstructs the von Neumann model, comments on its salient features and critically reviews some of its generalisations. The issues related to thetreatment of consumption, decomposability and uniqueness of the rate of growth and interest will be especially scrutinised. The most prominent models of general equilibrium that appeared before or roughly at the same time as von Neumann's model will be also reviewed in the paper and compared with it. It will be demonstrated that none of them had any noticeable influence on von Neumann's model, which is genuinely distinct, ideologically free and methodologically fresh and forward-looking. It will be argued that the model can be viewed as a brilliant mathematical metaphor of some deep-rooted old vision, pertaining to the core issues of commodity production

    Measurement of the ratio of prompt χ c to J / ψ production in pp collisions at √s = 7 TeV

    No full text
    The prompt production of charmonium χ c and J / ψ states is studied in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of √s = 7 TeV at the Large Hadron Collider. The χ c and J / ψ mesons are identified through their decays χ c → J / ψ γ and J / ψ → μ + μ - using 36 pb - 1 of data collected by the LHCb detector in 2010. The ratio of the prompt production cross-sections for χ c and J / ψ, σ (χ c → J / ψ γ) / σ (J / ψ), is determined as a function of the J / ψ transverse momentum in the range 2 < p T J / ψ < 15 GeV / c. The results are in excellent agreement with next-to-leading order non-relativistic expectations and show a significant discrepancy compared with the colour singlet model prediction at leading order, especially in the low p T J / ψ region

    Multiple boundary peak solutions for some singularly perturbed Neumann problems

    We consider the problem \left \{ \begin{array}{rcl} \varepsilon^2 \Delta u - u + f(u) = 0 & \mbox{ in }& \ \Omega\\ u > 0 \ \mbox{ in} \ \Omega, \ \frac{\partial u}{\partial \nu} = 0 & \mbox{ on }& \ \partial\Omega, \end{array} \right. where \Omega is a bounded smooth domain in R^N, \varepsilon>isasmallparameterandfisasuperlinear,subcriticalnonlinearity.Itisknownthatthisequationpossessesboundaryspikesolutionssuchthatthespikeconcentrates,asεapproacheszero,atacriticalpointofthemeancurvaturefunctionH(P),PΩ.ItisalsoknownthatthisequationhasmultipleboundaryspikesolutionsatmultiplenondegeneratecriticalpointsofH(P)ormultiplelocalmaximumpointsofH(P).Inthispaper,weprovethatforanyfixedpositiveinteger is a small parameter and f is a superlinear, subcritical nonlinearity. It is known that this equation possesses boundary spike solutions such that the spike concentrates, as \varepsilon approaches zero, at a critical point of the mean curvature function H(P), P \in \partial \Omega . It is also known that this equation has multiple boundary spike solutions at multiple nondegenerate critical points of H(P) or multiple local maximum points of H(P). In this paper, we prove that for any fixed positive integer Kthereexistboundary there exist boundary K-peaksolutionsatalocalminimumpointof solutions at a local minimum point of H(P).Thisimpliesthatforanysmoothandboundeddomaintherealwaysexistboundary. This implies that for any smooth and bounded domain there always exist boundary K-peak$ solutions. We first use the Liapunov-Schmidt method to reduce the problem to finite dimensions. Then we use a maximizing procedure to obtain multiple boundary spikes

    Evidence for the decay B0→J/ψω and measurement of the relative branching fractions of meson decays to J/ψη and J/ψη′

    No full text
    First evidence of the B 0 → J / ψ ω decay is found and the B s 0 → J / ψ η and B s 0 → J / ψ η ′ decays are studied using a dataset corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.0 fb -1 collected by the LHCb experiment in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of sqrt(s) = 7 TeV. The branching fractions of these decays are measured relative to that of the B 0 → J / ψ ρ 0 decay:frac(B (B 0 → J / ψ ω), B (B 0 → J / ψ ρ 0)) = 0.89 ± 0.19 (stat) - 0.13 + 0.07 (syst),frac(B (B s 0 → J / ψ η), B (B 0 → J / ψ ρ 0)) = 14.0 ± 1.2 (stat) - 1.5 + 1.1 (syst) - 1.0 + 1.1 (frac(f d, f s)),frac(B (B s 0 → J / ψ η ′), B (B 0 → J / ψ ρ 0)) = 12.7 ± 1.1 (stat) - 1.3 + 0.5 (syst) - 0.9 + 1.0 (frac(f d, f s)), where the last uncertainty is due to the knowledge of f d / f s, the ratio of b-quark hadronization factors that accounts for the different production rate of B 0 and B s 0 mesons. The ratio of the branching fractions of B s 0 → J / ψ η ′ and B s 0 → J / ψ η decays is measured to befrac(B (B s 0 → J / ψ η ′), B (B s 0 → J / ψ η)) = 0.90 ± 0.09 (stat) - 0.02 + 0.06 (syst)
