On Uniqueness of a Solution to the Boundary Initial Value Problem

Abstract

A first-order ordinary differential equation, solved with respect to derivative, is considered. It's right-hand side is defined and continuous on the set, consisting of a connected open subset of a two-dimensional Euclidean space and a part of its boundary. In the papers, dated by 2020, problems related to the existence or absence of the solution to the BIVP -- Initial Value Problem set at the boundary point -- were researched using different approaches. Such formulation of the Initial Value Problem is different from the formulation, established in the classic theory, where it is set at an interior point. This paper is devoted to solving problems related to uniqueness or non-uniqueness of the BIVP solutions. New definitions, related to uniqueness, absent in the formulation of the IIVP -- Initial Value Problem set at the interior point of the equation's domain -- are introduced. The theorems about the formal, local and global uniqueness of the BIVP solutions are proven. The differences between BIVP and IIVP are shown. For example, non-equivalence of the definitions of the formal, local and global uniqueness' for BIVP and IIVP is demonstrated, This non-equivalence leads to the appearance of hidden non-uniqueness points along with uniqueness and non-uniqueness points. Suggested theory is supposed to fill in the blanks in an existing literature, related to the problems of existence and uniqueness of the BIVP solutions.

On the log-concavity of the composite Bessel function $x^{\alpha}J_{\nu }\left( \beta x^{\gamma}\right) $

For a twice differentiable function $f:\left( a,b\right) \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ define $v\left( f\right) =f^{\prime}f^{\prime}-f^{\prime\prime }f.$ It is well known that the positivity of $v\left( f\right) $ implies that the function $\left\vert f\right\vert $ is strictly log-concave on each subinterval which does not contain zeros of $f.$ In this paper we provide criteria for the positivity of $v\left( F\right) $ for the composite Bessel function $F\left( x\right) =J_{\alpha,\beta,\gamma,\nu}\left( x\right) :=x^{\alpha}J_{\nu}\left( \beta x^{\gamma}\right) $ for positive numbers $\beta$ and $\gamma$ and real numbers $\alpha$ and $\nu.$

Riesz capacity ratios with negative exponents

We investigate sharp inequalities for ratios of Riesz capacities with negative exponents by combining computational experiments with rigorous analysis. For finite subsets of the line, we prove positivity of equilibrium masses when $-1<p<0$, enabling numerical tests of conjectured extremal ratios. In the plane, comparisons of the disk with regular polygon vertex sets reveal a cascade of transitions among the tested competitors and suggest a precise conjecture for the equilibrium measure of odd polygons, for which we give a partial proof. Numerical intersections of equality curves show that the regions where these sets outperform the disk are not simply nested. Similar numerical intersections occur in three dimensions between the regular-simplex equality curve and those of explicit five-point and six-point configurations. Motivated by the dimensional dependence of these comparisons, we prove that for each fixed $p<-2<q<0$, the regular simplex has a larger capacity ratio than the ball in all sufficiently large dimensions. Accompanying Python and Mathematica code supports reproduction and further testing of the conjectures.

Shorter proof of dimension-free $L^p$ estimates for maximal Riesz transforms

We provide a shorter and more direct proof of $L^p$ estimates for maximal Riesz transforms (of an arbitrary order) in terms of the corresponding Riesz transforms, with a constant independent of the dimension of the Euclidean space $\mathbb R^d$. This result was originally proved by Mateu, Orobitg, P\'erez and Verdera with a constant depending on the dimension, and improved to a dimension-free inequality by Kucharski, Wr\'obel and Zienkiewicz.
