The minimum free-energy path (MFEP) is the most probable route of the nucleation process on the multidimensional free-energy surface. In this study, the phase-field equation is used as a mathematical tool to deduce the MFEP of homogeneous nucleation. We use a simple square-gradient free-energy functional with a quartic local free-energy function as an example and study the time evolution of a s...

In this paper, we obtain the general solution and the generalized Hyers-Ulam Rassias stability of the functional equation 3(f(x+ 2y) + f(x− 2y)) = 12(f(x + y) + f(x− y)) + 4f(3y)− 18f(2y) + 36f(y)− 18f(x).

The stability problem of functional equations originated from a question of Ulam 1 in 1940, concerning the stability of group homomorphisms. Let G1, · be a group and let G2, ∗ be a metric group with the metric d ·, · . Given ε > 0, does there exist a δ > 0, such that if a mapping h : G1 → G2 satisfies the inequality d h x · y , h x ∗ h y < δ for all x, y ∈ G1, then there exists a homomorphism H...

In this paper, we establish the general solution of the functional equation f(nx+ y) + f(nx− y) = nf(x+ y) + nf(x− y) + 2(f(nx)− nf(x))− 2(n − 1)f(y) for fixed integers n with n 6= 0,±1 and investigate the generalized Hyers-Ulam-Rassias stability of this equation in quasi-Banach spaces.

Moreover, if the second alternative holds, then i the sequence {Jnx} is convergent to a fixed point y∗ of J ; ii y∗ is the unique fixed point of J in the set Y : {y ∈ X | d J0x, y < ∞} and d y, y∗ ≤ 1/ 1 − L d y, Jy , for all , x, y ∈ Y . Following 30, 31 , we recall some basic facts concerning multi-normed spaces and some preliminary results. ...

The present article is concerned with the numerical solution of Benjamin-BonaMahony-Burgers (BBM-Burger) equation by quartic B-spline collocation method. The method is based on quartic B-spline basis functions for space integration, and Crank-Nicolson formulation for time integration. Numerical examples considered by different researchers are discussed to illustrate the efficiency, robustness a...

We consider singular solutions of the L 2-critical biharmonic nonlinear Schrödinger equation. We prove that the blowup rate is bounded by a quartic-root, the solution approaches a quasi–self-similar profile, and a finite amount of L 2-norm, which is no less than the critical power, concentrates into the singularity. We also prove the existence of a ground-state solution. We use asymptotic analy...
