Uniform $L^{\infty}$-Boundedness of Global Attractors for Reaction-Diffusion Equations with Neumann boundary condition in Uniformly Perturbed Non-Smooth Domains

We consider a family of semilinear parabolic equations with homogeneous Neumann boundary conditions on a family of varying non-smooth domains $\{Ω_μ\}_{μ\in Λ} \subset \mathbb{R}^n $. Assuming only that the domains have uniformly bounded volumes, bounded away from zero, and satisfy a uniform Jones condition, together with the usual structural requirements on the linear and nonlinear terms, we establish the well-posedness of the problem in an appropriate scale of fractional Banach spaces and prove the existence of global attractors. Using a Moser-Alikakos bootstrap iteration in conjunction with the uniform Gronwall lemma and the uniform properties of the Jones extension operator, we show that bounded sets of $L^{q}(Ω_μ)$ are absorbed, in finite time and uniformly in $μ$, into a fixed ball of $L^\infty(Ω_μ)$; the iteration uses only first-order Sobolev embeddings, which is what makes it available on domains where the domain of the elliptic operator is not contained in $H^{2}$. Finally, assuming the volume convergence of the domains, $|Ω_μ\triangle Ω_0| \to 0$, we construct a framework of connecting maps and prove that the family of attractors is upper semicontinuous at $μ= 0$ in $L^2(Ω_μ)$ and hence, by interpolation, in $H^s(Ω_μ)$ for every $s<1$.

Asymptotic behavior for a class of non autonomous non local problems

In this paper we consider the non local non autonomous evolution problem \[ \begin{cases} \partial_t u =- u + g \left(β(t)(Ku) \right)\ \ \mbox{in}\ \ Ω,\\ u = 0\ \ \mbox{in}\ \ \mathbb{R}^N\backslashΩ, \end{cases} \] where $Ω$ is a smooth bounded domain in $\mathbb{R}^N$, $β$ denotes the functional parameter given by a continuous bounded function on $\mathbb{R}$, and $K$ is an integral operator with symmetric kernel. We prove existence and some regularity properties of the pullback attractor.

Stability analysis with applications of a two-dimensional dynamical system arising from a stochastic model of an asset market

We analyze the stability properties of equilibrium solutions and periodicity of orbits in a two-dimensional dynamical system whose orbits mimic the evolution of the price of an asset and the excess demand for that asset. The construction of the system is grounded upon a heterogeneous interacting agent model for a single risky asset market. An advantage of this construction procedure is that the resulting dynamical system becomes a macroscopic market model which mirrors the market quantities and qualities that would typically be taken into account solely at the microscopic level of modeling. The system's parameters correspond to: (a) the proportion of speculators in a market; (b) the traders' speculative trend; (c) the degree of heterogeneity of idiosyncratic evaluations of the market agents with respect to the asset's fundamental value; and (d) the strength of the feedback of the population excess demand on the asset price update increment. This correspondence allows us to employ our results in order to infer plausible causes for the emergence of price and demand fluctuations in a real asset market. The employment of dynamical systems for studying evolution of stochastic models of socio-economic phenomena is quite usual in the area of heterogeneous interacting agent models. However, in the vast majority of the cases present in the literature, these dynamical systems are one-dimensional. Our work is among the few in the area that construct and study two-dimensional dynamical systems and apply them for explanation of socio-economic phenomena.
