A finite volume scheme preserving maximum principle with cell-centered and vertex unknowns for diffusion equations on distorted meshes Appl. Math. Comput. (IF 3.472) Pub Date : 2021-01-20 Jiangfu Wang; Zhiqiang Sheng; Guangwei Yuan
In this paper, we propose a new nonlinear finite volume (FV) scheme preserving the discrete maximum principle (DMP) for diffusion equations on distorted meshes. We introduce both cell-centered and vertex unknowns as primary ones. It is well-known that some restrictions on the diffusion coefficients and meshes have to be imposed for existing cell-centered schemes to preserve the DMP (see, e.g., Sheng

Social distancing can be divided into two categories: spontaneous social distancing adopted by the individuals themselves, and public social distancing promoted by the government. Both types of social distancing have been proved to suppress the spread of infectious disease effectively. While previous studies examined the impact of each social distancing separately, the simultaneous impacts of them

A solution of the conjecture about big vertices of minimal-ABC trees Appl. Math. Comput. (IF 3.472) Pub Date : 2021-01-15 Darko Dimitrov; Zhibin Du
The problem of full determination of trees with a minimal value of the ABC index is very hard and famous in mathematical chemistry. A well-known conjecture is that the big vertices (vertices of degree larger than 2, which are not adjacent to a vertex of degree 2) of a tree with a minimal value of the ABC index induce a star graph. Here we give an affirmative answer to this conjecture and thus make

We develop precise bounds on the growth rates and fluctuation sizes of unbounded solutions of deterministic and stochastic nonlinear Volterra equations perturbed by external forces. The equation is sublinear for large values of the state, in the sense that the state–dependence is negligible relative to linear functions. If an appropriate functional of the forcing term has a limit L at infinity, the

The stability and duality of dynamic Cournot and Bertrand duopoly model with comprehensive preference Appl. Math. Comput. (IF 3.472) Pub Date : 2020-12-19 Yu Yu; Weisheng Yu
In this paper, a Cournot model and its dual Bertrand model where firms have comprehensive preferences are developed. The preference was proposed by Bowles (2004) based on the results of Rabin (1993) and Lebine (1998). Comparable static method is used to illustrate the impact of parameters on equilibrium. Three scenarios are classified by preference parameter: completely cooperative, hostile to each

Geometric Brownian motion with affine drift and its time-integral Appl. Math. Comput. (IF 3.472) Pub Date : 2020-12-18 Runhuan Feng; Pingping Jiang; Hans Volkmer
The joint distribution of a geometric Brownian motion and its time-integral was derived in a seminal paper by Yor (1992) using Lamperti’s transformation, leading to explicit solutions in terms of modified Bessel functions. In this paper, we revisit this classic result using the simple Laplace transform approach in connection to the Heun differential equation. We extend the methodology to the geometric

A supplementary strategy for coarsening in algebraic multigrid Appl. Math. Comput. (IF 3.472) Pub Date : 2020-12-17 Shuai Ye; Xinhai Xu; Hengbin An; Xuejun Yang
Algebraic multigrid (AMG) is an efficient iterative method for solving linear equation systems arising from the elliptic partial differential equations. The coarsening algorithm, which determines the coarse-variable set in the classical AMG, is a critical component. This paper targets at reducing the overall solution time of the classical AMG by improving the quality of the coarse-variable set obtained
