On solvability of an indefinite Riccati equation [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2013
This note concerns a class of matrix Riccati equations associated with stochastic linear-quadratic optimal control problems with indefinite state and control weighting costs. A novel sufficient condition of solvability of such equations is derived, based on a monotonicity property of a newly defined set.

The global well-posedness and global attractor for the solutions to the 2D Boussinesq system with variable viscosity and thermal diffusivity [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2014
Global well-posedness of strong solutions and existence of the global attractor to the initial and boundary value problem of 2D Boussinesq system in a periodic channel with non-homogeneous boundary conditions for the temperature and viscosity and thermal diffusivity depending on the temperature are proved.

Almost Automorphy and Riccati Equation [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2014
In this paper we first consider a linear time invariant systems with almost periodic forcing term. We propose a new deterministic quadratic control problem, motivated by Da-Prato. With the help of associated degenerate Riccati equation we study the existence and uniqueness of an almost automorphic solutions.

On Solving the Cauchy Problem with Propagators [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2014
The abstract first order Cauchy problem is solved in terms of Taylor's series leading to a series of operators which is a propagator. It is found that higher order Cauchy problems can be solved in the same way. Since derivatives of order lower than the Cauchy problem are built-in to the problem, it suffices to solve the higher order derivatives in ...

An Alternate Method for Finding Particular Solutions of Nonhomegeneous Differential Equations [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
In this short note we are presenting a method of finding particular solutions of nonhomegeneous linear equations. This approach is different from methods of undetermined coefficients or variation of parameters presented in virtually every standard Differential Equations textbook.

A Closed-Form Solution to the Arbitrary Order Cauchy Problem with Propagators [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2014
The general abstract arbitrary order (N) Cauchy problem was solved in a closed form as a sum of exponential propagator functions. The infinite sparse exponential series was solved with the aid of a homogeneous differential equation. It generated a linear combination of exponential functions.

Diffeomorphism groups of compact convex sets [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2016
For a compact convex subset K with non-empty interior in a finite-dimensional vector space, let G be the group of all smooth diffeomorphisms of K which fix the boundary of K pointwise. We show that G is a C^0-regular infinite-dimensional Lie group. As a byproduct, we obtain results concerning solutions to ordinary differential equations on compact ...
