In the paper, a two-grid discretization scheme is discussed for the Steklov eigenvalue problem. With the scheme, the solution of the Steklov eigenvalue problem on a fine grid is reduced to the solution of the Steklov eigenvalue problem on a much coarser grid and the solution of a linear algebraic system on the fine grid. Using spectral approximation theory, it is shown theoretically that the tw...

The conjecture by Steklov was solved negatively by Rakhmanov in 1979. His original proof was based on the formula for orthogonal polynomial obtained by adding point masses to the measure of orthogonality. In this note, we show how this polynomial can be obtained by applying the method developed recently for proving the sharp lower bounds for the problem by Steklov.

The positivity-preserving property for the inverse of the biharmonic operator under Steklov boundary conditions is studied. It is shown that this property is quite sensitive to the parameter involved in the boundary condition. Moreover, positivity of the Steklov boundary value problem is linked with positivity under boundary conditions of Navier and Dirichlet type.

in the present article, we propose the $(p,q)$variant of genuine baskakov durrmeyer operators. we obtain moments and establish some directresults, which include weighted approximation and results in terms of modulus of continuity of second order.

In the present paper, we introduce some Stancu type generalization of Szász-Mirakyan-Baskakov type operators. We estimate the moments for these operators using the hypergeometric series, which can be related to Laguerre polynomials. We estimate point wise convergence, asymptotic expansion and error estimate in terms of higher order modulus of continuity of function in simultaneous approximation...

In recent works by Singer, Douglas and Gopakumar and Gross an application of results of Voiculescu from non-commutative probability theory to constructions of the master field for large N matrix field theories have been suggested. In this note we consider interrelations between the master field and quantum groups. We define the master field algebra and observe that it is isomorphic to the algeb...

In this article, we study the existence of the eigencurves for a Steklov problem and we obtain their variational formulation. Also we prove the simplicity and the isolation results of each point of the principal eigencurve. Also we obtain the continuity and the differentiability of the principal eigencurve.

We introduce a novel and efficient simulation technique for generating physics-based skinning animations of skeleton-driven characters with full support for collision handling. Although physics-based approaches may use a volumetric (e.g. tetrahedral) flesh model, operations such as rendering, collision processing and user manipulation directly involve only the surface of this mesh. Motivated by...

This paper is concerned with the Poincaré-Steklov operator that is widely used in domain decomposition methods. It is proved that the inverse of the Poincaré-Steklov operator can be expressed explicitly by an integral operator with a kernel being the Green’s function restricted to the interface. As an application, for the discrete Poincaré-Steklov operator with respect to either a line (edge) o...

We study the nodal set of the Steklov eigenfunctions on the boundary of a smooth bounded domain in Rn – the eigenfunctions of the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map Λ. For a bounded Lipschitz domain Ω ⊂ Rn, this map associates to each function u defined on the boundary ∂Ω, the normal derivative of the harmonic function on Ω with boundary data u. Under the assumption that the domain Ω is C2, we prove a do...
