AbstractThe differential equations governing the propagation of waves of electric and magnetic types in a plane stratified isotropic plasma are suitably generalized, and we investigate the possibility of models for which the moduli of the reflexion coefficients are identical for the two modes. First, the models are examined without the necessity of finding general solutions, and, secondly, by using the circuit relations for the hypergeometric functions occurring in the explicit solutions.

By utilizing the general solutions derived for the plies with arbitrary fiber orientations under uniform axial strain (Huang and Chen, 1994), the explicit solutions of the edge-delamination stress singularities for the angle-ply and cross-ply laminates are obtained. The dominant edge-delamination stress singularities for the angle-ply laminates are found to be a real constant, −1/2, and a pair of complex conjugates, −1/2±i/2πln{(b+b2−a2)/a}. For the cross-ply laminates, the significant effect of transverse shear stresses of the laminate is considered and the dominant edge-delamination stress singularities are shown as −1/2 and −1/2±i/2πln{(c2+c22−4c1c3)/2c1}. a, b, cl, c2, and c3 are the corresponding combined complex constants. In addition, two elementary forms of edge-delamination stress singularity, say, r−1/2 and rδr(lnr)n(δr=n−3/2,n=1,2...) exist for both the angle-ply and cross-ply laminates. Excellent correlations between the present results and available solutions show the validity of the approach. The deficiencies of the solutions available in the literature are compensated. New results for other angle-ply and cross-ply laminates are also provided.

In this paper, we expound on the hypergeometric series solutions for the second-order non-homogeneous k-hypergeometric differential equation with the polynomial term. The general solutions of this equation are obtained in the form of k-hypergeometric series based on the Frobenius method. Lastly, we employ the result of the theorem to find the solutions of several non-homogeneous k-hypergeometric differential equations.

Abstract The diagrammatic coaction maps any given Feynman graph into pairs of graphs and cut graphs such that, conjecturally, when these graphs are replaced by the corresponding Feynman integrals one obtains a coaction on the respective functions. The coaction on the functions is constructed by pairing a basis of differential forms, corresponding to master integrals, with a basis of integration contours, corresponding to independent cut integrals. At one loop, a general diagrammatic coaction was established using dimensional regularisation, which may be realised in terms of a global coaction on hypergeometric functions, or equivalently, order by order in the ϵ expansion, via a local coaction on multiple polylogarithms. The present paper takes the first steps in generalising the diagrammatic coaction beyond one loop. We first establish general properties that govern the diagrammatic coaction at any loop order. We then focus on examples of two-loop topologies for which all integrals expand into polylogarithms. In each case we determine bases of master integrals and cuts in terms of hypergeometric functions, and then use the global coaction to establish the diagrammatic coaction of all master integrals in the topology. The diagrammatic coaction encodes the complete set of discontinuities of Feynman integrals, as well as the differential equations they satisfy, providing a general tool to understand their physical and mathematical properties.

International audience A two-dimensional controlled stochastic process defined by a set of stochastic differential equations is considered. Contrary to the most frequent formulation, the control variables appear only in the infinitesimal variances of the process, rather than in the infinitesimal means. The differential game ends the first time the two controlled processes are equal or their difference is equal to a given constant. Explicit solutions to particular problems are obtained by making use of the method of similarity solutions to solve the appropriate partial differential equation. On considère un processus stochastique commandé bidimensionnel défini par un ensemble d'équations différentielles stochastiques. Contrairement à la formulation la plus fréquente, les variables de commande apparaissent dans les variances infinitésimales du processus, plutôt que dans les moyennes infinitésimales. Le jeu différentiel prend fin lorsque les deux processus sont égaux ou que leur différence est égale à une constante donnée. Des solutions explicites à des problèmes particuliers sont obtenues en utilisant la méthode des similitudes pour résoudre l'équation aux dérivées partielles appropriée.
