Multivalued Logic, Neutrosophy And Schrodinger Equation, Florentin Smarandache, Victor Christianto Dec 2005

Multivalued Logic, Neutrosophy And Schrodinger Equation, Florentin Smarandache, Victor Christianto

Branch Mathematics and Statistics Faculty and Staff Publications

This book was intended to discuss some paradoxes in Quantum Mechanics from the viewpoint of Multi-Valued-logic pioneered by Lukasiewicz, and a recent concept Neutrosophic Logic. Essentially, this new concept offers new insights on the idea of ‘identity’, which too often it has been accepted as given. Neutrosophy itself was developed in attempt to generalize Fuzzy-Logic introduced by L. Zadeh. While some aspects of theoretical foundations of logic are discussed, this book is not intended solely for pure mathematicians, but instead for physicists in the hope that some of ideas presented herein will be found useful. The book is motivated by …


Lattice Quantum Algorithm For The Schrodinger Wave Equation In 2+1 Dimensions With A Demonstration By Modeling Soliton Instabilities, Jeffrey Yepez, George Vahala, Linda L. Vahala Dec 2005

Lattice Quantum Algorithm For The Schrodinger Wave Equation In 2+1 Dimensions With A Demonstration By Modeling Soliton Instabilities, Jeffrey Yepez, George Vahala, Linda L. Vahala

Electrical & Computer Engineering Faculty Publications

A lattice-based quantum algorithm is presented to model the non-linear Schrödinger-like equations in 2 + 1 dimensions. In this lattice-based model, using only 2 qubits per node, a sequence of unitary collide (qubit-qubit interaction) and stream (qubit translation) operators locally evolve a discrete field of probability amplitudes that in the long-wavelength limit accurately approximates a non-relativistic scalar wave function. The collision operator locally entangles pairs of qubits followed by a streaming operator that spreads the entanglement throughout the two dimensional lattice. The quantum algorithmic scheme employs a non-linear potential that is proportional to the moduli square of the wave function. …


Thermal Imaging Of Circular Inclusions Within A Two-Dimensional Region, Shannon Talbott, Hilary Spring Aug 2005

Thermal Imaging Of Circular Inclusions Within A Two-Dimensional Region, Shannon Talbott, Hilary Spring

Mathematical Sciences Technical Reports (MSTR)

The ability to study the interior of an object without destroying it is an important industrial tool. One method of recent interest is steady-state thermal or impedance imaging. In this paper we will use the steady-state heat equation to locate one or more circular inclusions within a two-dimensional region, where the boundaries of the inclusions have partially disbonded from the surrounding material; this disbond is modelled as between the heat flux and jump discontinuity at the disbonded interface.


Time-Dependent Thermal Imaging Of Circular Inclusions, Donald L. Brouwn, Mark Hubenthal Jul 2005

Time-Dependent Thermal Imaging Of Circular Inclusions, Donald L. Brouwn, Mark Hubenthal

Mathematical Sciences Technical Reports (MSTR)

This paper considers the inverse problem of locating one or more circular inclusions in a two-dimensional domain using thermal boundary data, specifically, the input heat flux and measured boundary temperature. The forward problem is governed by the heat equation. We show how the position and size of such defects can be recovered using the boundary data and various approximations of the solution to the forward problem. We also consider the stability of the algorithm involved to recover the defects.


Conformal Properties And Baecklund Transform For The Associated Camassa-Holm Equation, Rossen Ivanov Jan 2005

Conformal Properties And Baecklund Transform For The Associated Camassa-Holm Equation, Rossen Ivanov

Articles

Integrable equations exhibit interesting conformal properties and can be written in terms of the so-called conformal invariants. The most basic and important example is the KdV equation and the corresponding Schwarz-KdV equation. Other examples, including the Camassa-Holm equation and the associated Camassa-Holm equation are investigated in this paper. It is shown that the B¨acklund transform is related to the conformal properties of these equations. Some particular solutions of the Associated Camassa-Holm Equation are discussed also.


Some Comments On: Existence Of Solutions Of Abstract Nonlinear Second-Order Neutral Functional Integrodifferential Equations, Eduardo Hernandez, Mark A. Mckibben Jan 2005

Some Comments On: Existence Of Solutions Of Abstract Nonlinear Second-Order Neutral Functional Integrodifferential Equations, Eduardo Hernandez, Mark A. Mckibben

Mathematics Faculty Publications

We establish the existence of mild solutions for a class of abstract second-order partial neutral functional integro-differential equations with infinite delay in a Banach space using the theory of cosine families of bounded linear operators and Schaefer's fixed-point theorem.


On The Integrability Of A Class Of Nonlinear Dispersive Wave Equations, Rossen Ivanov Jan 2005

On The Integrability Of A Class Of Nonlinear Dispersive Wave Equations, Rossen Ivanov

Articles

We investigate the integrability of a class of 1+1 dimensional models describing nonlinear dispersive waves in continuous media, e.g. cylindrical compressible hyperelastic rods, shallow water waves, etc. The only completely integrable cases coincide with the Camassa-Holm and Degasperis-Procesi equations.


Transient Non-Linear Heat Conduction Solution By A Dual Reciprocity Boundary Element Method With An Effective Posteriori Error Estimator, Eduardo Divo, Alain J. Kassab Jan 2005

Transient Non-Linear Heat Conduction Solution By A Dual Reciprocity Boundary Element Method With An Effective Posteriori Error Estimator, Eduardo Divo, Alain J. Kassab

Publications

A Dual Reciprocity Boundary Element Method is formulated to solve non-linear heat conduction problems. The approach is based on using the Kirchhoff transform along with lagging of the effective non-linear thermal diffusivity. A posteriori error estimate is used to provide effective estimates of the temporal and spatial error. A numerical example is used to demonstrate the approach.
