  1. 1. Variational Methods for Moments of Solutions to Stochastic Differential Equations

    Author : Kristin Kirchner; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Additive and multiplicative noise; Stochastic partial differential equation; Projective and injective tensor product space; Hilbert tensor product space; Space-time variational problem; Petrov-Galerkin discretization; Stochastic ordinary differential equation;

    Abstract : Numerical methods for stochastic differential equations typically estimate moments of the solution from sampled paths. Instead, we pursue the approach proposed by A. Lang, S. Larsson, and Ch. READ MORE

  2. 2. Titchmarsh-Weyl M-function asymptotics and some results in the inverse spectral theory for vector-valued Sturm-Liouville equations and a certain higher order ordinary differential equation

    Author : Erik Andersson; Matematik (naturvetenskapliga fakulteten); []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Functions; differential equations; Funktioner; differentialekvationer; Paley-Wiener.; The generalized Fourier transform; A certain higher order ordinary differential equation; Borg-Marchenko theorems; Vector-valued Sturm-Liouville equations; Inverse spectral theory; Titchmarsh-Weyl M-function asymptotics; Asymptotics of solutions; Spectral measure;

    Abstract : This discourse is constituted by two separate reprots, where the first one offers an elementary deduction of the leading order term asymptotics for the Titchmarsh-Weyl M-function corresponding to a vector-valued Sturm-Liouville equation of the form -(PU')'+QU=zu, xin[0,b), with P^{-1},W,Q being hermitean with locally integrable entries; and under some additional conditions on P^{-1} and W. In the special case of P=W=I, we give some further asymptotic results for the same M-function. READ MORE

  3. 3. Differential Equations with Constraints

    Author : Olivier Verdier; Matematik LTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : We study various differential equations subject to constraints. In the first part we study a partial differential equation, Burgers equation, subject to time-periodicity constraint. The forcing term is time-periodic and may be highly irregular. READ MORE
