A Predator-Prey Biological Model With Combined Birth Rates, Self-Limitation And Competition Terms, Joon Hyuk Kang, Lucinda Ford Apr 2023

A Predator-Prey Biological Model With Combined Birth Rates, Self-Limitation And Competition Terms, Joon Hyuk Kang, Lucinda Ford

Faculty Publications

The purpose of this paper is to give sufficient conditions for the existence and uniqueness of positive solutions to a rather general type of elliptic system of the Dirichlet problem on a bounded domain Ω in Rn. Also considered are the effects of perturbations on the coexistence state and uniqueness. The techniques used in this paper are super-sub solutions method, eigenvalues of operators, maximum principles, spectrum estimates, inverse function theory, and general elliptic theory. The arguments also rely on some detailed properties for the solution of logistic equations. These results yield an algebraically computable criterion for the positive …

Obstructions To Shake Sliceness For Links, Anthony Bosman Apr 2022

Obstructions To Shake Sliceness For Links, Anthony Bosman

Faculty Publications

Shake slice generalizes the notion of a slice link, naturally extending the notion of shake slice knots to links. There is also a relative version, shake concordance, that generalizes link concordance. We show that if two links are shake concordant, then their zero surgery manifolds are homology cobordant. Then we give several obstructions to a link being shake slice; for instance, the Arf invariants vanish for both the link and each component. Finally we show that a shake slice link bounds disjoint disks in a homology 4-ball and hence each component is algebraically slice.

Classification Of Rectifying Space-Like Submanifolds In Pseudo-Euclidean Spaces, Bang Yen Chan, Yun Myung Oh Mar 2017

Classification Of Rectifying Space-Like Submanifolds In Pseudo-Euclidean Spaces, Bang Yen Chan, Yun Myung Oh

Faculty Publications

The notions of rectifying subspaces and of rectifying submanifolds were introduced in [B.-Y. Chen, Int. Electron. J. Geom 9 (2016), no. 2, 1–8]. More precisely, a submanifold in a Euclidean m-space Em is called a rectifying submanifold if its position vector field always lies in its rectifying subspace. Several fundamental properties and classification of rectifying submanifolds in Euclidean space were obtained in [B.-Y. Chen, op. cit.]. In this present article, we extend the results in [B.-Y. Chen, op. cit.] to rectifying space- like submanifolds in a pseudo-Euclidean space with arbitrary codimension. In particular, we completely classify all rectifying space-like submanifolds …


Estimates Of Life Span Of Solutions Of A Cauchy Problem, Joon Hyuk Kang Jan 2017

Estimates Of Life Span Of Solutions Of A Cauchy Problem, Joon Hyuk Kang

Faculty Publications

In this paper we get estimates of life span of a Cauchy problem ut(x, t) = ∆ u(x, t) +u(x, t)p, x∈Rn, t >0,u(x,0) =λφ(x), x∈Rn in terms of the positive constant parameterλ whenφ(x)∈Lq is a nonnegative bounded continuous function in Rn but not identically zero, where q is large enough. The technique we used in this paper is the Comparison Principle.


Characterization Of Rectifying And Sphere Curves In R^3, Yun Myung Oh, Julie Logan Jan 2017

Characterization Of Rectifying And Sphere Curves In R^3, Yun Myung Oh, Julie Logan

Faculty Publications

Studies of curves in 3D-space have been developed by many geometers and it is known that any regular curve in 3D space is completely determined by its curvature and torsion, up to position. Many results have been found to characterize various types of space curves in terms of conditions on the ratio of torsion to curvature. Under an extracondition on the constant curvature, Y.L. Seo and Y. M. Oh found the series solution when the ratio of torsion to curvature is a linear function. Furthermore, this solution is known to be a rectifying curve by B. Y. Chen’s work. This …


Region Of Smooth Functions For Positive Solutions To An Elliptic Biological Model, Joon Hyuk Kang, Timothy Robertson Jan 2017

Region Of Smooth Functions For Positive Solutions To An Elliptic Biological Model, Joon Hyuk Kang, Timothy Robertson

Faculty Publications

The non-existence and existence of the positive solution to the generalized elliptic model ∆u+g(u v) = 0 in Ω, ∆v+h(u, v) = 0 in Ω, u=v= 0 on∂Ω, were investigated.


Positive Equilibrium Solutions To General Population Model, Joon Hyuk Kang Jul 2013

Positive Equilibrium Solutions To General Population Model, Joon Hyuk Kang

Faculty Publications

In this paper, we investigate conditions for the existence of positive solution to the following general elliptic system with various growth conditions: {Δu + u(a + g(u, v)) = 0 Δv + v(d + h(u, v)) = 0 u|∂ω=v|∂ω=0 in ω. Our arguments mainly rely on super-sub solutions, maximum principles, spectrum estimates, and some detailed properties for the solution of logistic equations. © 2013 Academic Publications, Ltd.


Multiple Mixed-Type Attractors In A Competition Model, J. M. Cushing, Shandelle M. Henson, Chantel C. Blackburn Jan 2007

Multiple Mixed-Type Attractors In A Competition Model, J. M. Cushing, Shandelle M. Henson, Chantel C. Blackburn

Faculty Publications

We show that a discrete-time, two-species competition model with Ricker (exponential) nonlinearities can exhibit multiple mixed-type attractors. By this is meant dynamic scenarios in which there are simultaneously present both coexistence attractors (in which both species are present) and exclusion attractors (in which one species is absent). Recent studies have investigated the inclusion of life-cycle stages in competition models as a casual mechanism for the existence of these kinds of multiple attractors. In this paper we investigate the role of nonlinearities in competition models without life-cycle stages. © 2007 Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.
