We introduce reflexive polytopes of index l as a natural generalisation of the notion of a reflexive polytope of index 1. These l-reflexive polytopes also appear as dual pairs. In dimension two we show that they arise from reflexive polygons via a change of the underlying lattice. This allows us to efficiently classify all isomorphism classes of l-reflexive polygons up to index 200. As another ...

The present study examines the uses of the reflexive marker in Lusaamia, a Bantu language of Kenya. In addition to being a true reflexive, the reflexive verbal prefix is also used in indirect reflexive constructions, as a middle voice / stative marker, and also to indicate when an action is being done for no particular purpose (when used in conjunction with a causative marker). I show that unac...

We consider the problem of identifying sharp criteria under which radial H (finite energy) solutions to the focusing 3d cubic nonlinear Schrödinger equation (NLS) i∂tu + ∆u + |u|2u = 0 scatter, i.e. approach the solution to a linear Schrödinger equation as t → ±∞. The criteria is expressed in terms of the scale-invariant quantities ‖u0‖L2‖∇u0‖L2 and M [u]E[u], where u0 denotes the initial data,...

Of concern is the Cauchy problem du dt ∈ Au, u(0) = u0, t > 0, where u : [0,∞) → X, X is a real Banach space, and A : D(A) ⊂ X → X is nonlinear and multi-valued. It is showed by the method of lines, combined with the Crandall–Liggett theorem that this problem has a limit solution, and that the limit solution is a unique strong one if A is what is called embeddedly quasi-demi-closed. In the case...

‎In this paper we focus on the Cauchy problem for the generalized‎ ‎IBq equation with damped term in $n$-dimensional space‎. ‎We establish the global existence and decay estimates of solution with $L^q(1leq qleq 2)$ initial value‎, ‎provided that the initial value is suitably small‎. ‎Moreover‎, ‎we also show that the solution is asymptotic to the solution $u_L$ to the corresponding linear equa...

Let K be a nonempty closed convex and bounded subset of a reflexive Banach space X. Let [Formula: see text] be N-variables monotone demi-continuous mappings from [Formula: see text] into X. Then: (1) the system of multivariate variational inequalities [Formula: see text] has a solution [Formula: see text]; (2) the set of solutions of this system of multivariate variational inequalities is close...

Answering an old problem in nonlinear theory, we show that c0 cannot be coarsely or uniformly embedded into a reflexive Banach space, but that any stable metric space can be coarsely and uniformly embedded into a reflexive space. We also show that certain quasi-reflexive spaces (such as the James space) also cannot be coarsely embedded into a reflexive space and that the unit ball of these spac...

According to the Smoluchowski-Kramers approximation, the solution of the equation μq̈ t = b(q μ t ) − q̇ t + Σ(q t )Ẇt, q 0 = q, q̇ 0 = p converges to the solution of the equation q̇t = b(qt) + Σ(qt)Ẇt, q0 = q as μ → 0. We consider here a similar result for the Langevin process with elastic reflection on the boundary.

A 2 XB 2 = C 2 , there are some valuable efforts on solving a pair of the matrix equations with certain linear constraints on solution. For instance, Khatri and Mitra [7] derived the Hermitian solution of the consistent matrix equations AX = C, XB = D. Deng et al. [8] studied the consistent conditions and the general expressions about the Hermitian solutions of the matrix equations (AX,XB) = (C...
