Noncommutative Variations on Laplace’s Equation

Stability of additive functional equation on discrete quantum semigroups

We construct  a noncommutative analog of additive functional equations on discrete quantum semigroups and show that this noncommutative functional equation has Hyers-Ulam stability on amenable discrete quantum semigroups. The discrete quantum semigroups that we consider in this paper are in the sense of van Daele, and the amenability is in the sense of Bèdos-Murphy-Tuset. Our main result genera...

A Numerical Implementation of Fokas Boundary Integral Approach: Laplace’s Equation on a Polygonal Domain

A recently discovered transform approach allows a large class of initial and initialboundary value problems to be solved in terms of contour integrals. We introduce here a spectrally accurate numerical discretization of this approach for the case of Laplace’s equation on a polygonal domain, and compare it against an also spectrally accurate implementation of the traditional boundary integral fo...

Jack polynomials, generalized binomial coefficients and polynomial solutions of the generalized Laplace’s equation

We discuss the symmetric homogeneous polynomial solutions of the generalized Laplace’s equation which arises in the context of the Calogero-Sutherland model on a line. The solutions are expressed as linear combinations of Jack polynomials and the constraints on the coefficients of expansion are derived. These constraints involve generalized binomial coefficients defined through Jack polynomials...

On the Solution of the Equation of Laplace’s Functions

A robust and accurate solver of Laplace’s equation with general boundary conditions on general domains in the plane

A robust and general solver for Laplace’s equation on the interior of a simply connected domain in the plane is described and tested. The solver handles general piecewise smooth domains and Dirichlet, Neumann, and Robin boundary conditions. It is based on an integral equation formulation of the problem. Difficulties due to changes in boundary conditions and corners, cusps, or other examples of ...
