Effects of errors in the initial-time geometry on the solution of an equation from dynamo theory in an exterior domain

This paper studies the improperly posed backward-in-time problem, in addition to the forward-in-time problem, for a solution to a non-symmetric partial differential equation which arises in dynamo theory. Throughout, the spatial domain is unbounded and exterior to a compact region in three-space. Continuous dependence on changes in the initial-time geometry is established. For the forward-in-time problem, an explicit continuous dependence inequality depending solely on data is derived, while for the backward-in-time problem, a similar inequality is established but the bound depends also on a constraint set.

This paper studies the improperly posed, backward in time problem, in addition to the well posed forward in time problem, for a non-symmetric partial differential equation which describes the behaviour of the toroidal part of the magnetic field in a dynamo problem. We first show that solutions in an unbounded cylinder decay exponentially in space provided that for the backward in time problem a Dirichlet integral is bounded and provided the prescribed velocity field satisfies particular bounds; for the forward in time problem several of these constraints are relaxed. It is next shown that the solution to the same problem on a bounded spatial domain depends Hölder continuously on changes in the prescribed velocity field.

In the present paper we give conditions under which there exists a unique weak solution for a nonlocal equation driven by the integrodifferential operator of fractional Laplacian type. We argue for the optimality of some assumptions. Some Lyapunov-type inequalities are given. We also study the continuous dependence of the solution on parameters. In proofs we use monotonicity and variational methods.

In this paper, we study the existence of positive solutions for an initial value problem of a state-dependent neutral functional differential equation with two state-delay functions. The continuous dependence of the unique solution will be proved. Some especial cases and examples will be given.

In this paper we investigate continuous dependence on the initial-time geometry for solutions of a generalized heat conduction system. Assuming the initial data to be measured on a surface t = εF(x), for |F| < 1, and assigned at t = 0, we examine the effects of this error in the initial-time geometry on the solution both forward and backward in time.

<p style='text-indent:20px;'>In this paper we consider the existence, uniqueness, boundedness and continuous dependence on initial data of positive solutions for the general iterative functional differential equation <inline-formula><tex-math id="M1">\begin{document}$ \dot{x}(t) = f(t,x(t),x^{[2]}(t),...,x^{[n]}(t)). $\end{document}</tex-math></inline-formula> As <inline-formula><tex-math id="M2">\begin{document}$ n = 2 $\end{document}</tex-math></inline-formula>, this equation can be regarded as a mixed-type functional differential equation with state-dependence <inline-formula><tex-math id="M3">\begin{document}$ \dot{x}(t) = f(t,x(t),x(T(t,x(t)))) $\end{document}</tex-math></inline-formula> of a special form but, being a nonlinear operator, <inline-formula><tex-math id="M4">\begin{document}$ n $\end{document}</tex-math></inline-formula>-th order iteration makes more difficulties in estimation than usual state-dependence. Then we apply our results to the existence, uniqueness, boundedness, asymptotics and continuous dependence of solutions for the mixed-type functional differential equation. Finally, we present two concrete examples to show the boundedness and asymptotics of solutions to these two types of equations respectively.</p>
