The nonlocal Kuramoto-Sivashinsky equation arises in the modeling of the flow of a thin film of viscous liquid falling down an inclined plane, subject to an applied electric field. In this paper, the authors show that, as the coefficient of the nonlocal integral term goes to zero, the solution trajectories and the maximal attractor of the nonlocal Kuramoto-Sivashinsky equation converge to those...

nonstandard finite difference schemes for the black-scholes partial differential equation preserving the positivity property are proposed. computationally simple schemes are derived by using a nonlocal approximation in the reaction term of the black-scholes equation. unlike the standard methods, the solutions of new proposed schemes are positive and free of the spurious oscillations.

We study the asymptotic behaviour of radially symmetric solutions of the nonlocal equation In a bounded spherically symmetric domain ft C R"f where A,(<) m 1 fftW(<p) «fcr, with a Neumann boundary condition. The analysis is based on "energy methods combined with some a-priori estimates, the latter being used to approximate the sohtion by the first two terms of an asymptotic expansionWe only nee...

In this paper, we investigate two types of nonlocal soliton equations with the parity-time (PT) symmetry, namely, a two dimensional nonlocal nonlinear Schrödinger (NLS) equation and a coupled nonlocal Klein-Gordon equation. Solitons and periodic line waves as exact solutions of these two nonlocal equations are derived by employing the Hirota's bilinear method. Like the nonlocal NLS equation, th...

A new method is proposed to recover the water-wave surface elevation from pressure data obtained at the bottom of the fluid. The new method requires the numerical solution of a nonlocal nonlinear equation relating the pressure and the surface elevation which is obtained from the Euler formulation of the water-wave problem without approximation. From this new equation, a variety of different asy...

Additional nonlocal symmetries of diffusion-convection equations and the Burgers equation are obtained. It is shown that these equations are connected via a generalized hodograph transformation and appropriate nonlocal symmetries arise from additional Lie symmetries of intermediate equations. Two entirely different techniques are used to search nonlocal symmetry of a given equation: the first i...

We describe an approach to nonlocal, nonlinear advection in one dimension that extends the usual pointwise concepts to account for nonlocal contributions to the flux. The spatially nonlocal operators we consider do not involve derivatives. Instead, the spatial operator involves an integral that, in a distributional sense, reduces to a conventional nonlinear advective operator. In particular, we...

Abstract. This paper investigates the exit-time for a broad class of symmetric finite-range jump processes via the corresponding master equation, a nonlocal diffusion equation suitably constrained. In direct analogy to the classical diffusion equation with a homogeneous Dirichlet boundary condition, the nonlocal diffusion equation is augmented with a homogeneous volume constraint. The volume-co...
