We study properties of an infinite system of discrete nonlinear Schrödinger equations that is equivalent to a coupled Schrödinger-elliptic differential equation with periodic coefficients. The differential equation was derived as a model for laser beam propagation in optical waveguide arrays in a nematic liquid crystal substrate and can be relevant to related systems with nonlocal nonlinearities. The infinite system is obtained by expanding the relevant physical quantities in a Wannier function basis associated to a periodic Schrödinger operator appearing in the problem. We show that the model can describe stable beams, and we estimate the optical power at different length scales. The main result of the paper is the Hamiltonian structure of the infinite system, assuming that the Wannier functions are real. We also give an explicit construction of real Wannier functions, and examine translation invariance properties of the linear part of the system in the Wannier basis.

A pursuit differential game described by an infinite system of 2-systems is studied in Hilbert space l2. Geometric constraints are imposed on control parameters of pursuer and evader. The purpose of pursuer is to bring the state of the system to the origin of the Hilbert space l2 and the evader tries to prevent this. Differential game is completed if the state of the system reaches the origin of l2. The problem is to find a guaranteed pursuit and evasion times. We give an equation for the guaranteed pursuit time and propose an explicit strategy for the pursuer. Additionally, a guaranteed evasion time is found.

Abstract The aim of the paper is to investigate the solvability of an infinite system of nonlinear integral equations on the real half-axis. The considerations will be located in the space of function sequences which are bounded at every point of the half-axis. The main tool used in the investigations is the technique associated with measures of noncompactness in the space of functions defined, continuous and bounded on the real half-axis with values in the space l∞ consisting of real bounded sequences endowed with the standard supremum norm. The essential role in our considerations is played by the fact that we will use a measure of noncompactness constructed on the basis of a measure of noncompactness in the mentioned sequence space l∞. An example illustrating our result will be included.

The method of increments is a wavefunction-based ab initio correlation method for solids, which explicitly calculates the many-body wavefunction of the system. After a Hartree-Fock treatment of the infinite system the correlation energy of the solid is expanded in terms of localised orbitals or of a group of localised orbitals. The method of increments has been applied to a great variety of materials with a band gap, but in this paper the extension to metals is described. The application to solid mercury is presented, where we achieve very good agreement of the calculated ground-state properties with the experimental data.
