In this paper we consider the heat equation with Neumann, Robin and mixed boundary conditions (with coefficients on the boundary which depend on the space variable). The main results concern the behaviour of the cost of the null controllability with respect to the diffusivity when the control acts in the interior. First, we prove that if we almost have Dirichlet boundary conditions in the part of the boundary in which the flux of the transport enters, the cost of the controllability decays for a time $T$ sufficiently large. Next, we show some examples of Neumann and mixed boundary conditions in which for any time $T>0$ the cost explodes exponentially as the diffusivity vanishes. Finally, we study the cost of the problem with Neumann boundary conditions when the control is localized in the whole domain.

Abstract We find the most general solution to Chern-Simons AdS3 gravity in Fefferman-Graham gauge. The connections are equivalent to geometries that have a non-trivial curved boundary, characterized by a 2-dimensional vielbein and a spin connection. We define a variational principle for Dirichlet boundary conditions and find the boundary stress tensor in the Chern-Simons formalism. Using this variational principle as the departure point, we show how to treat other choices of boundary conditions in this formalism, such as, including the mixed boundary conditions corresponding to a $$ T\overline{T} $$ T T ¯ -deformation.

AbstractWe study extrema of the first and the second mixed eigenvalues of the Laplacian on the disk among some families of Dirichlet–Neumann boundary conditions. We show that the minimizer of the second eigenvalue among all mixed boundary conditions lies in a compact 1-parameter family for which an explicit description is given. Moreover, we prove that among all partitions of the boundary with bounded number of parts on which Dirichlet and Neumann conditions are imposed alternately, the first eigenvalue is maximized by the uniformly distributed partition.

In this paper, a nonlinear differential problem involving the \(p\)-Laplacian operator with mixed boundary conditions is investigated. In particular, the existence of three non-zero solutions is established by requiring suitable behavior on the nonlinearity. Concrete examples illustrate the abstract results.

The stationary Boussinesq equations describing the heat transfer in the viscous heat-conducting fluid under inhomogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions for velocity and mixed boundary conditions for temperature are considered. The optimal control problems for these equations with tracking-type functionals are formulated. A local stability of the concrete control problem solutions with respect to some disturbances of both cost functionals and state equation is proved.

Abstract It was recently shown that charged AdS boson stars can reproduce the universal structure of the lowest scaling dimension in the subsector of a CFT with fixed large global U(1) charge Q. Using the model consisting of Einstein-Maxwell gravity with a negative cosmological constant, coupled to a U(1)-charged conformally massless scalar with the fourth-order self interaction, we construct a class of charged AdS boson star solutions in the large Q limit, where the scalar field obeys a mixed boundary condition, parameterized by k that interpolates between the Neumann and Dirichlet boundary conditions corresponding to k = 0 and ∞ respectively. By varying k, we numerically read off the k dependence of the leading coefficient c3/2(k) ≡ limQ→∞M/Q3/2. We find that c3/2(k) is a monotonously increasing function which grows linearly when k is sufficiently small. When k → ∞, c3/2(k) approaches the maximal value at a decreasing rate given by k−3/2. We also obtain a close form expression that fits the numerical data for the entire range of k within 10−4 accuracy.

We use the variational principle approach to derive the large NN holographic dictionary for two-dimen-sional T\bar TTT‾-deformed CFTs, for both signs of the deformation parameter. The resulting dual gravitational theory has mixed boundary conditions for the non-dynamical graviton; the boundary conditions for matter fields are undeformed. When the matter fields are turned off and the deformation parameter is negative, the mixed boundary conditions for the metric at infinity can be reinterpreted on-shell as Dirichlet boundary conditions at finite bulk radius, in agreement with a previous proposal by McGough, Mezei and Verlinde. The holographic stress tensor of the deformed CFT is fixed by the variational principle, and in pure gravity it coincides with the Brown-York stress tensor on the radial bulk slice with a particular cosmological constant counterterm contribution. In presence of matter fields, the connection between the mixed boundary conditions and the radial ``bulk cutoff’’ is lost. Only the former correctly reproduce the energy of the bulk configuration, as expected from the fact that a universal formula for the deformed energy can only depend on the universal asymptotics of the bulk solution, rather than the details of its interior. The asymptotic symmetry group associated with the mixed boundary conditions consists of two commuting copies of a state-dependent Virasoro algebra, with the same central extension as in the original CFT.

The object of this work is to investigate the effect of the change of film pressure resulting from axial squeeze-film motion between driving and driven disks on the performance of hydroviscous drive (HVD). A simplified mathematical model of the steady and laminar flow between parallel disks is established with consideration of three kinds of pressure boundary conditions. Some analytical solutions of film thickness, rotate speed of driven disk, viscous torque, and total torque are obtained. The numerical results show that the torque response depends on the relationship between the inlet pressure and the outlet pressure when considering the Dirichlet boundary conditions. The soft-start under Dirichlet boundary conditions and Mixed boundary conditions reflects the constant-torque startup and torque control startup, respectively. Compared with the two boundary conditions above, the soft-start under pressure profile boundary from Neumann boundary conditions has advantages for speed regulation. The effects of the ratio of inner and outer radius on the torque profiles and soft-start time are mainly related to Dirichlet boundary conditions and pressure profile boundary from Neumann boundary conditions.

AbstractVarious grometrical properties of a domain may be elicited from the asymptotic expansion of a spectral function of the Laplacian operator for that region with apporpriate boundary conditions. Explicit calculations, using analytical formulae for the eigenvalues, are performed for the cases fo Neumann and mixed boundary conditions, extending earlier work involving Dirichet boundary conditions. Two- and three-dimensional cases are considered. Simply-connected regions dealt with are the rectangle, annular sector, and cuboid. Evaluations are carried out for doubly-connected regions, including the narrow annulus, annular cylinder, and thin concentric spherical cavity. The main summation tool is the Poission summation formula. The calculations utilize asymptotic expansions of the zeros of the eigenvalue equations involving Bessel and related functions, in the cases of curved boundaries with radius ratio near unity. Conjectures concerning the form of the contributions due to corners, edges and vertices in the case of Neumann and mixed boundary conditions are presented.
