In this paper we shall generalize a theorem of Bogoyavl'enskii (2) showing the equivalence of two apparently different families of integrals of the ‘higher stationary Korteweg–de Vries (KdV)’ equations. We recall that the KdV equations form a hierarchy of evolution equationsfor an unknown function u(x, t). The equations can be written in ‘Lax form’ (7)where L is the Schrödinger operator (δ2/δx2) + u, and P+ runs through all the (ordinary) differential operators such that the commutator on the right of (1·1) has order zero.

Throughout this paper we shall use I to denote a given interval, not necessarily bounded, of real numbers and Cn to denote the real valued n times continuously differentiable functions on I and C0 will be abbreviated to C. By a differential operator of order n we shall mean a linear function L:Cn → C of the form1.1where pn(x) ≠ 0 for x ∊ I and pi ∊ Cj 0 ≦ j ≦ n. The function pn is called the leading coefficient of L.It is well known (see, for example, [2, pp. 73-74]) thai a differential operator L of order n uniquely determines both a differential operator L* of order n (the adjoint of L) and a bilinear form [·,·]L (the Lagrange bracket) so that if D denotes differentiation, we have for u, v ∊ Cn,1.2

SynopsisThis paper is concerned with integral inequalities of the formwhere p, q are real-valued coefficients, with p and w non-negative, on the compact interval [a, b] and D is a linear manifold of functions so chosen that all three integrals are absolutely convergent.

In recent years there has been great progress in the study of certain systems of non-linear partial differential equations, namely those that have a ‘Lax representation’Here P and L are linear differential operators in one variable x, whose coefficients are l × l matrices of functions of x and t. Thus L has the formwhere each ui is a matrix of functions ui,αβ(x, t), 1 ≤ α, β ≤ l. The symbol Lt means that we differentiate each coefficient of L, and as usual [P, L] = PL − LP. The coefficients of P are supposed to be polynomials in the ui, αβ and their x-derivatives, so that (1·1) is equivalent to a system of non-linear ‘evolution equations’ for the variables ui, αβ. The simplest example is the Korteweg–de Vries (KdV) equationwhich has a Lax representation with(Here l = 1, and there is only one coefficient ui, αβ. ) The connexion between the KdV equation and this ‘Schrodinger operator’ L was discovered by Gardner, Greene, Kruskal and Miura(6), but it was P. Lax (13) who first pointed out explicitly what we call the Lax representation given by (1·1) and (1·2). The notation (P, L), due to Gel'fand and Dikii(7), reflects this fact.

For certain ordinary differential operators L of order 2n, this paper considers the problem of determining the number of linearly independent solutions of class L2[a, ∞) of the equation L(y) = λy. Of central importance is the operator0.1where the coefficients pi are real. For this L, classical results give that the number m of linearly independent L2[a, ∞) solutions of L(y) = λy is the same for all non-real λ, and is at least n [10, Chapter V]. When m = n, the operator L is said to be in the limit-point condition at infinity. We consider here conditions on the coefficients pi of L which imply m = n. These conditions are in the form of limitations on the growth of the coefficients.

SynopsisThe present paper is concerned with developing the existence and asymptotic properties of the state density N(λ) associated with certain higher order random ordinary differential operators A of the formwhere Ao has homogeneous and ergodic coefficients with respect to the σ-algebra generated by the Wiener process q(ω, x). The analysis uses the Weyl min-max principle to determine rough upper and lower bounds for N(λ).

Based on some known loop algebras with finite dimensions, two different negative-order integrable couplings of the negative-order Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) hierarchy of evolution equations are generated by making use of the Tu scheme, from which the corresponding negative-order integrable couplings of the negative-order KdV equations are followed to be obtained. The resulting Hamiltonian structure of one negative integrable coupling is derived from the variational identity.

Letbe an ordinary differential operator of order h whose coefficients are (η, η) matrices defined on the interval 0 ≤ x < ∞, hη = n = 2v. Let the operator L0 be formally self adjoint and let v boundary conditions be given at x = 0 such that the eigenvalue problem(1.1)has no non-trivial square integrable solution. This paper deals with the perturbed operator L∈ = L0 + ∈q where ∈ is a real parameter and q(x) is a bounded positive (η, η) matrix operator with piecewise continuous elements 0 ≤ x < ∞. Sufficient conditions involving L0, q are given such that L∈ determines a selfadjoint operator H∈ and such that the spectral measure E∈(Δ′) corresponding to H∈ is an analytic function of ∈, where Δ′ is a subset of a fixed bounded interval Δ = [α, β]. The results include and improve results obtained for scalar differential operators in an earlier paper (3).

The action of water and the electron beam on organic specimens in the electron microscope results in the removal of oxidizable material (primarily hydrogen and carbon) by reactions similar to the water gas reaction .which has the form:The energy required to force the reaction to the right is supplied by the interaction of the electron beam with the specimen.The mass of water striking the specimen is given by:where u = gH2O/cm2 sec, PH2O = partial pressure of water in Torr, & T = absolute temperature of the gas phase. If it is assumed that mass is removed from the specimen by a reaction approximated by (1) and that the specimen is uniformly thinned by the reaction, then the thinning rate in A/ min iswhere x = thickness of the specimen in A, t = time in minutes, & E = efficiency (the fraction of the water striking the specimen which reacts with it).

Analytical solitary wave solution of the dust ion acoustic waves (DIAWs) is studied in the frame-work of Korteweg-de Vries (KdV), damped force Korteweg-de Vries (DFKdV), damped force modified Korteweg-de Vries (DFMKdV) and damped forced Zakharov-Kuznetsov (DFZK) equations in an unmagnetized collisional dusty plasma consisting of negatively charged dust grain, positively charged ions, Maxwellian distributed electrons and neutral particles. Using reductive perturbation technique (RPT), the evolution equations are obtained for DIAWs.
