There are 11 integral trees with largest eigenvalue 3.

We propose a numerical method using contour integral to solve polynomial eigenvalue problems (PEPs). The method finds eigenvalues contained in a certain domain which is defined by a surrounding integral path. By evaluating the contour integral numerically along the path, the method reduces the original PEP into a small generalized eigenvalue problem, which has the identical eigenvalues in the d...

This paper presents a stochastic meshless method for probabilistic analysis of linear-elastic structures with spatially varying random material properties. Using Karhunen-Loève (K-L) expansion, the homogeneous random field representing material properties was discretized by a set of orthonormal eigenfunctions and uncorrelated random variables. Two numerical methods were developed for solving th...

A hermitian integral kernel in N-space may be mapped to a corresponding Hamiltonian in 2N-space by the Wigner transformation. Linear simplectic transformation on the phase space of the Hamiltonian yields a new kernel whose spectrum is unchanged and whose eigenfunctions follow from an explicit unitary transformation. If an integral kernel has a Wigner transform whose surfaces of constant value a...

In this paper, we establish the existence of travelling wave solution to an intrinsically non-linear differential-integral equation formed as a result of mathematical modelling of the evolution of an asexual population in a changing environment. This equation is first converted to a non-linear integral equation. The discretization and manipulation of the corresponding eigenvalue problem allows ...

Exact and approximate solutions of the fractional diffusion equation for an assembly of fixed-axis dipoles are derived for anomalous noninertial rotational diffusion in a double-well potential. It is shown that knowledge of three time constants characterizing the normal diffusion, viz., the integral relaxation time, the effective relaxation time, and the inverse of the smallest eigenvalue of th...

A two-grid discretization scheme is proposed for solving eigenvalue problems, including both partial differential equations and integral equations. With this new scheme, the solution of an eigenvalue problem on a fine grid is reduced to the solution of an eigenvalue problem on a much coarser grid, and the solution of a linear algebraic system on the fine grid and the resulting solution still ma...
