Remark on Algorithm 982: Explicit Solutions of Triangular Systems of First-order Linear Initial-value Ordinary Differential Equations with Constant Coefficients

Algorithm 982: Explicit solutions of triangular systems of first-order linear initial-value ordinary differential equations with constant coefficients provides an explicit solution for an homogeneous system, and a brief description of how to compute a solution for the inhomogeneous case. The method described is not directly useful if the coefficient matrix is singular. This remark explains more completely how to compute the solution for the inhomogeneous case and for the singular coefficient matrix case.

Pure rolling motion of hyperquadrics in pseudo-Euclidean spaces

<p style='text-indent:20px;'>This paper is devoted to rolling motions of one manifold over another of equal dimension, subject to the nonholonomic constraints of no-slip and no-twist, assuming that these motions occur inside a pseudo-Euclidean space. We first introduce a definition of rolling map adjusted to this situation, which generalizes the classical definition of Sharpe [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b26">26</xref>] for submanifolds of an Euclidean space. We also prove some important properties of these rolling maps. After presenting the general framework, we analyse the particular rolling of hyperquadrics embedded in pseudo-Euclidean spaces. The central topic is the rolling of a pseudo-hyperbolic space over the affine space associated with its tangent space at a point. We derive the kinematic equations, as well as the corresponding explicit solutions for two specific cases, and prove the existence of a rolling map along any curve in that rolling space. Rolling of a pseudo-hyperbolic space on another and rolling of pseudo-spheres are equally treated. Finally, for the central theme, we write the kinematic equations as a control system evolving on a certain Lie group and prove its controllability. The choice of the controls corresponds to the choice of a rolling curve.</p>

Elastic and Thermoelastic Responses of Orthotropic Half-Planes

A unified approach is presented for constructing explicit solutions to the plane elasticity and thermoelasticity problems for orthotropic half-planes. The solutions are constructed in forms which decrease the distance from the loaded segments of the boundary for any feasible relationship between the elastic moduli of orthotropic materials. For the construction, the direct integration method was employed to reduce the formulated problems to a governing equation for a key function. In turn, the governing equation was reduced to an integral equation of the second kind, whose explicit analytical solution was constructed by using the resolvent-kernel algorithm.

On the solutions of some fractional q-differential equations with the Riemann-Liouville fractional q-derivative

This paper is devoted to explicit and numerical solutions to linear fractional q-difference equations and the Cauchy type problem associated with the Riemann-Liouville fractional q-derivative in q-calculus. The approaches based on the reduction to Volterra q-integral equations, on compositional relations, and on operational calculus are presented to give explicit solutions to linear q-difference equations. For simplicity, we give results involving fractional q-difference equations of real order a > 0 and given real numbers in q-calculus. Numerical treatment of fractional q-difference equations is also investigated. Finally, some examples are provided to illustrate our main results in each subsection.

Novel Approach to Computing Critical and Normal Depth in Circular Channels

The critical depth and normal depth computation are essential for hydraulic engineers to understanding the characteristics of varied flow in open channels. These depths are fundamental to analyze the flow for irrigation, drainage, and sewer pipes. Several explicit solutions to calculate critical and normal depths in different shape open channels were discovered over time. Regardless of the complexity of using these explicit solutions, these formulas have a significant error percentage compared to the exact solution. Therefore, this research explicitly calculates the normal and critical depth in circular channels and finds simple, fast, and accurate equations. First, the dimensional analysis was used to propose an analytical equation for measuring the circular channels' critical and normal depths. Then, regression analysis has been carried for 2160 sets of discharge versus critical and normal depths data in a circular open channel. The results show that this study's proposed equation for measuring the circular channels' critical and normal depths overcomes the error percentage in previous studies. Furthermore, the proposed equation offers efficiency and precision compared with other previous solutions.

Characters of Explicit Solutions for a Semidiscrete Integrable Coupled Equation

A semidiscrete integrable coupled system is obtained by embedding a free function into the discrete zero-curvature equation. Then, explicit solutions of the first two nontrivial equations in this system are derived directly by the Darboux transformation method. Finally, in order to compare the solutions before and after coupling intuitively, their structure figures are presented and analyzed.

Integrable variable-coefficient derivative Spin-1 Gross–Pitaevskii equations and their explicit solutions

Based on the generalized dressing method, we propose a new integrable variable coefficient Spin-1 Gross–Pitaevskii equations and derive their Lax pair. Using separation of variables, we have derived explicit solutions of the equations. In order to analyze the characteristic of derived solution, the graphical wave of the solutions is plotted with the aid of Matlab.

In light of Liu \emph{at el.}'s original works, this paper revisits the solution of Burgers's nonlinear equation $u_t=a(u_x)^2+bu_{xx} $. The study found two exact and explicit solutions for groups $G_4$ and $G_6$, as well as a general solution. A numerical simulation is carried out. In the appendix a Maple code is provided

Drazin-Star and Star-Drazin Inverses of Bounded Finite Potent Operators on Hilbert Spaces

The aim of this work is to extend to bounded finite potent endomorphisms on arbitrary Hilbert spaces the notions of the Drazin-Star and the Star-Drazin of matrices that have been recently introduced by D. Mosić. The existence, structure and main properties of these operators are given. In particular, we obtain new properties of the Drazin-Star and the Star-Drazin of a finite complex matrix. Moreover, the explicit solutions of some infinite linear systems on Hilbert spaces from the Drazin-Star inverse of a bounded finite potent endomorphism are studied.
