چکیده

In this paper we prove the existence and uniqueness of the boundary layer solution to a semilinear eigenvalue problem consisting of a coupled system of two elliptic partial differential equations. Although the system is not quasimonotone, there exists a transformation to a quasimonotone system. For the transformed system we may and will use maximum (sweeping) principle arguments to derive pointwise estimates. A degree argument completes the uniqueness proof.

A Boundary Layer Solution to a Semilinear Elliptic System of Fitzhugh-nagumo Type

? In this note we study the semilinear elliptic system (P) on a bounded domain, where ; ; > 0 and f has two consecutive zeroes, for example f (u) = u (u ? a) (1 ? u) with 0 < a < 1=2. The existence, for large, of a positive solution with boundary layer behavior as well as uniqueness of this solution in an order interval are proven.

On a Kinetic Fitzhugh–Nagumo Model of Neuronal Network

We investigate existence and uniqueness of solutions of a McKeanVlasov evolution PDE representing the macroscopic behaviour of interacting Fitzhugh-Nagumo neurons. This equation is hypoelliptic, nonlocal and has unbounded coefficients. We prove existence of a solution to the evolution equation and non trivial stationary solutions. Moreover, we demonstrate uniqueness of the stationary solution i...

Solutions with internal jump for an autonomous elliptic system of FitzHugh - Nagumo type

Systems of elliptic partial di erential equations which are coupled in a noncooperative way, such as the FitzHugh-Nagumo type studied in this paper, in general do not satisfy order preserving properties. This not only results in technical complications but also yields a richer solution structure. We prove the existence of multiple nontrivial solutions. In particular we show that there exists a ...

Existence and uniqueness of the solution for the bidomain model used in cardiac electrophysiology

We study the well-posedness of the bidomain model, that is commonly used to simulate electrophysiological wave propagation in the heart. We base our analysis on a formulation of the bidomain model as a system of coupled parabolic and elliptic PDEs for two potentials and ODEs representing the ionic activity. We first reformulate the parabolic and elliptic PDEs into a single parabolic PDE by the ...

Random Attractors for the Stochastic FitzHugh-Nagumo System on Unbounded Domains

The existence of a random attractor for the stochastic FitzHugh-Nagumo system defined on an unbounded domain is established. The pullback asymptotic compactness of the stochastic system is proved by uniform estimates on solutions for large space and time variables. These estimates are obtained by a cut-off technique.
