We propose a method for mapping a spatially discrete problem, stemming from the spatial discretization of a parabolic or hyperbolic partial differential equation of gradient type, to a heterogeneous one with certain comparable dynamical features pertaining, in particular, to coherent structures. We focus the analysis on a (1+1)-dimensional φ4 model and confirm the theoretical predictions numerically. We also discuss possible generalizations of the method and the ensuing qualitative analogies between heterogeneous and discrete systems and their dynamics.

Localized states in the discrete two-dimensional (2D) nonlinear Schrödinger equation is found: vortex solitons with an integer vorticity S. While Hamiltonian lattices do not conserve angular momentum or the topological invariant related to it, we demonstrate that the soliton’s vorticity may be conserved as a dynamical invariant. Linear stability analysis and direct simulations concur in showing that fundamental vortex solitons, with S=1, are stable if the intersite coupling C is smaller than some critical value Ccr(1). At C>Ccr(1), an instability sets in through a quartet of complex eigenvalues appearing in the linearized equations. Direct simulations reveal that an unstable vortex soliton with S=1 first splits into two usual solitons with S=0 (in accordance with the prediction of the linear analysis), but then an instability-induced spontaneous symmetry breaking takes place: one of the secondary solitons with S=0 decays into radiation, while the other one survives. We demonstrate that the usual (S=0) 2D solitons in the model become unstable, at C>Ccr(0)≈2.46Ccr(1), in a different way, via a pair of imaginary eigenvalues ω which bifurcate into instability through ω=0. Except for the lower-energy S=1 solitons that are centered on a site, we also construct ones which are centered between lattice sites which, however, have higher energy than the former. Vortex solitons with S=2 are found too, but they are always unstable. Solitons with S=1 and S=0 can form stable bound states.

We describe the dynamical and bifurcational behavior of two mutually inhibitory, leaky, neural units subject to external stimulus, random noise, and "priming biases". The model describes a simple forced choice experiment and accounts for varying levels of expectation and control. By projecting the model's dynamics onto slow manifolds, using judicious linear approximations, and solving for one-dimensional (reduced) probability densities, analytical estimates are developed for reaction time distributions and shown to compare satisfactorily with "full" numerical data. A sensitivity analysis is performed and the effects of parameters assessed. The predictions are also compared with behavioral data. These results may help correlate low-dimensional models of stochastic neural networks with cognitive test data, and hence assist in parameter choices and model building.

A central problem in the mathematical analysis of fluid dynamics is the asymptotic limit of the fluid flow as viscosity goes to *** is particularly important when boundaries are present since vorticitv is typically generated at the boundary as a result of boundary layer *** boundary laver theory,developed by Prandtl about a hundred years ago,has become a standard tool in addressing these *** at the mathematical level,there is still a lack of fundamental understanding of these questions and the validity of the boundary layer *** this article,we review recent progresses on the analysis of Prandtl’s equation and the related issue of the zero-viscosity limit for the solutions of the Navier-Stokes *** also discuss some directions where progress is expected in the near future.

We explore time-based solvers for linear standing-wave problems, especially the oscillatory Helmholtz equation. Here, we show how to accelerate the convergence properties of timestepping. We introduce a new time-based solver that we call phase-adjusted time-averaging (PATA), which we couple to timestepping to form the PATA-TS solver. Numerical experiments indicate that the PATA-TS solver is faster than the PATA solver and timestepping by a factor of 1.2 and 1.5 or more, respectively. We also explain why the PATA-TS solver is robust, efficient, and easy to program for a variety of practical applications.

Superresolution reconstruction produces a high resolution image from a set of low resolution images. Previous work on superresolution had not adequately addressed the computational issues for this problem. In this paper, we propose efficient block circulant preconditioners for solving the regularized superresolution problem by conjugate gradients. The effectiveness of the preconditioners is demonstrated with superresolution results for a simulated image sequence and a FLIR image sequence.
