In this paper, we consider diagonal non-conservative hyperbolic systems in one space dimension with monotone and large Lipschitz continuous data. Under a certain nonnegativity condition on the Jacobian matrix of the velocity of the system, global existence and uniqueness results of a Lipschitz solution for this system, which is not necessarily strictly hyperbolic, was already proven. We propose a natural implicit scheme satisfiying a similar Lipschitz estimate at the discrete level. This property allows us to prove the convergence of the scheme without assuming it strictly hyperbolic.

Using a norm inequality for singular integral operators in pairs of weighted Lebesgue spaces we are able to prove existence and uniqueness results for solutions of nonlinear RiemannHilbert problems with non-compact Lipschitz continuous restriction curves.

We study the uniqueness of solutions to diagonal hyperbolic systems in one spatial dimension and we present two uniqueness results. First, we establish a global existence and uniqueness theorem for continuous solutions to strictly hyperbolic systems. Second, we establish a global existence and uniqueness theorem for Lipschitz continuous solutions to hyperbolic systems that need not be strictly hyperbolic. Furthermore, an application is presented for one-dimensional flows in isentropic gas dynamics.

We introduce a new stochastic model for metastatic growth, which takes the form of a branching stochastic process with settlement. The moving particles are interpreted as clusters of cancer cells while stationary particles correspond to micro-tumors and metastases. The analysis of expected particle location, their locational variance, the furthest particle distribution, and the extinction probability leads to a common type of differential equation, namely, a non-local integro-differential equation with distributed delay. We prove global existence and uniqueness results for this type of equation. The solutions’ asymptotic behavior for long time is characterized by an explicit index, a metastatic reproduction number R0: metastases spread for R0 > 1 and become extinct for R0 < 1. Using metastatic data from mouse experiments, we show the suitability of our framework to model metastatic cancer.

Abstract We introduce a new stochastic model for metastatic growth, which takes the form of a branching stochastic process with settlement. The moving particles are interpreted as clusters of cancer cells, while stationary particles correspond to micro-tumours and metastases. The analysis of expected particle location, their locational variance, the furthest particle distribution and the extinction probability leads to a common type of differential equation, namely, a non-local integro-differential equation with distributed delay. We prove global existence and uniqueness results for this type of equation. The solutions’ asymptotic behaviour for long time is characterized by an explicit index, a metastatic reproduction number $R_0$: metastases spread for $R_{0}&gt;1$ and become extinct for $R_{0}&lt;1$. Using metastatic data from mouse experiments, we show the suitability of our framework to model metastatic cancer.

AbstractWe introduce and study a new kind of nonlocal boundary value problems of multi-term fractional differential equations. The existence and uniqueness results for the given problem are obtained by applying standard fixed point theorems. We also construct some examples for demonstrating the application of the main results.

In this paper, we give existence and uniqueness results for backward stochastic differential equations when the generator has a polynomial growth in the state variable. We deal with the case of a fixed terminal time, as well as the case of random terminal time. The need for this type of extension of the classical existence and uniqueness results comes from the desire to provide a probabilistic representation of the solutions of semilinear partial differential equations in the spirit of a nonlinear Feynman-Kac formula. Indeed, in many applications of interest, the nonlinearity is polynomial, e.g, the Allen-Cahn equation or the standard nonlinear heat and Schrödinger equations.
