In modern conditions, the interdisciplinary of comparative research requires an expansion of the framework of this approach, their orientations to results of new disciplines taking into account electronic means of the analysis and assessment of data with the prospect of moving from interdisciplinarity to transdisciplinarity. The interdisciplinarity in comparative research is studied in the works of foreign and domestic scientists.

  • Layer Potentials for General Linear Elliptic Systems 1
    Electronic Journal of Differential Equations, Vol. 2017 (2017), No. 309, pp. 1{23. ISSN: 1072-6691. URL: http://ejde.math.txstate.edu or http://ejde.math.unt.edu LAYER POTENTIALS FOR GENERAL LINEAR ELLIPTIC SYSTEMS ARIEL BARTON Abstract. In this article we construct layer potentials for elliptic differential operators using the Babuˇska-Lax-Milgram theorem, without recourse to the fundamental solution; this allows layer potentials to be constructed in very general settings. We then generalize several well known properties of layer potentials for harmonic and second order equations, in particular the Green's formula, jump relations, adjoint relations, and Verchota's equivalence between well-posedness of boundary value problems and invertibility of layer potentials. 1. Introduction There is by now a very rich theory of boundary value problems for the Laplace operator, and more generally for second order divergence form operators − div Ar. The Dirichlet problem − div Aru = 0 in Ω; u = f on @Ω; kukX ≤ CkfkD and the Neumann problem − div Aru = 0 in Ω; ν · Aru = g on @Ω; kukX ≤ CkgkN are known to be well-posed for many classes of coefficients A and domains Ω, and with solutions in many spaces X and boundary data in many boundary spaces D and N. A great deal of current research consists in extending these well posedness results to more general situations, such as operators of order 2m ≥ 4 (for example, [19, 25, 45, 47, 53, 54]; see also the survey paper [22]), operators with lower order terms (for example, [24, 30, 34, 55, 62]) and operators acting on functions defined on manifolds (for example, [46, 50, 51]).

    Nikolai Azbelev −−− the Giant of Causal Mathematics Efim A. Galperin Universite du Quebec a Montreal, Canada One of the greatest mathematicians of all times, Nikolai Viktorovich Azbelev has died. He is one of those great scholars who rise to lasting prominence after leaving this world of fast market values in science. He left immortal ideas that are changing mathematics. I met him 20 years ago at the first world Congress of Nonlinear Analysts (1992) in Tampa, USA, and later in Ariel and Athens. We talked a lot about differential equations with deviating arguments, the branch of mathematics not duly recognized at the time and, I am afraid, not clearly understood right now. The classical theories of ODEs and PDEs well presented in all textbooks, monographs and high level articles in mathematics are physically invalid, and Nikolai Azbelev felt it strongly although he could not tell it from the podium of a congress. Even now, it is not common to talk about it. To put things straight, consider the 2nd law of Newton usually formulated in textbooks as follows: ma = mx’’ = F(t, x, v), v = x’ = lim[x(t+ dt) – x(t)]/dt as dt→ 0. Here the mass m is presumed to be constant. For m ≠ const, Georg Buquoy proposed (1812) another formula: mdv + (v – w)dm = F(t, x, v)dt where v – w is the relative velocity with which dm is ejected from a moving body. Both formulas are however non-causal, thus physically invalid, since at any current moment t, the value x(t + dt), dt > 0, does not exist and cannot be known (measured) at a future moment t + dt > t not yet realized.

    FUNCTIONS OF BOUNDED VARIATION, THE DERIVATIVE OF THE ONE DIMENSIONAL MAXIMAL FUNCTION, AND APPLICATIONS TO INEQUALITIES J. M. ALDAZ AND J. PEREZ´ LAZARO´ Abstract. We prove that if f : I R R is of bounded variation, then the uncentered maximal function Mf is absolutely continuous,⊂ → and its derivative satisfies the sharp inequality DMf L1(I) Df (I). This allows us obtain, under less regularity, versions of classical inequalitiesk k involving≤ | | derivatives. 1. Introduction. The study of the regularity properties of the Hardy-Littlewood maximal function was initiated by Juha Kinnunen in [Ki], where it was shown that the centered maximal operator is bounded on the Sobolev spaces W 1,p(Rd) for 1 <p . This result was used to give a new proof of a weak-type inequality for the Sobolev capacity,≤∞ and to obtain the p-quasicontinuity of the maximal function of an element of W 1,p(Rd), 1 <p< . Since then, a good deal of work has been done within this line of research. In [KiLi] a local∞ version of the original boundedness result, valid on W 1,p(Ω), Ω Rd open, was given. Generalizations were presented in [HaOn], extending both the global and⊂ local theorems to the spherical maximal function for the range d> 1,d/(d 1) <p. The regularity of the fractional maximal operator was studied in [KiSa]. Hannes Luiro− proved in [Lu] the continuity of the Hardy-Littlewood maximal operator on W 1,p(Rd) (continuity is not immediate from boundedness because of the lack of linearity), finding an explicit representation for the derivative of the maximal function.

  • INVENTARIO DELLA CORRISPONDENZA a Cura Di Claudio Sorrentino Con Il Coordinamento Scientifico Di Paola Cagiano De Azevedo
    ARCHIVIO GAETANO FICHERA INVENTARIO DELLA CORRISPONDENZA a cura di Claudio Sorrentino con il coordinamento scientifico di Paola Cagiano de Azevedo Roma 2020 1 NOTA INTRODUTTIVA Gaetano Fichera nacque ad Acireale, in provincia di Catania, l’8 febbraio 1922. Fu assai verosimilmente suo padre Giovanni, anch’egli insegnante di matematica, a infondergli la passione per questa disciplina. Dopo aver frequentato il primo biennio di matematica nell’Università di Catania (1937-1939), si laureò brillantemente a Roma nel 1941, a soli diciannove anni, sotto la guida di Mauro Picone (di cui fu allievo prediletto), eminente matematico e fondatore dell’Istituto nazionale per le applicazioni del calcolo, il quale nello stesso anno lo fece nominare assistente incaricato presso la sua cattedra. Libero docente dal 1948, la sua attività didattica fu svolta sempre a Roma, ad eccezione del periodo che va dal 1949 al 1956, durante il quale, dopo essere divenuto professore di ruolo, insegnò nell’Università di Trieste. Nel 1956 fu chiamato all’Università di Roma, dove successe proprio al suo Maestro Mauro Picone, nella quale occupò le cattedre di analisi matematica e analisi superiore. Alla sua attività ufficiale vanno aggiunti i periodi, a volte anche piuttosto lunghi, di insegnamento svolto in Università o istituzioni estere. Questi incarichi all’estero, tuttavia, non interferirono con la sua attività didattica in Italia. Fu membro dell’Accademia nazionale dei Lincei, di cui fu socio corrispondente dal 1963 e nazionale dal 1978, e di altre prestigiose istituzioni culturali nazionali e internazionali. Nel 1976 fu insignito dall’Accademia dei Lincei stessa del “Premio Feltrinelli”. Ai Lincei si era sempre dedicato, soprattutto negli ultimi anni, quando dal 1990 al 1996 diresse i «Rendiconti di matematica e applicazioni», ai quali diede forte impulso, migliorandone la qualità scientifica e incrementandone la diffusione a livello internazionale.
