Several div-conforming and divdiv-conforming finite elements for symmetric tensors on simplexes in arbitrary dimension are constructed in this work. The shape function space is first split as the trace space and the bubble space. The later…

We propose two nonconforming finite elements to approximate a boundary value problem arising from strain gradient elasticity, which is a higher-order perturbation of the linearized elastic system. Our elements are H$^2-$nonconforming while…

A unified construction of canonical $H^m$-nonconforming finite elements is developed for $n$-dimensional simplices for any $m, n \geq 1$. Consistency with the Morley-Wang-Xu elements [Math. Comp. 82 (2013), pp. 25-43] is maintained when $m…

We introduce and analyze a robust nonconforming finite element method for a three dimensional singularly perturbed quad-curl model problem. For the solution of the model problem, we derive proper a priori bounds, based on which, we prove…

Guo and Xu determined the maximum size of intersecting families over finite affine spaces and showed that any family reaches maximum size must be trivial. In this paper, we characterize non-trivial intersecting family with maximum size.

A high-order finite element method is proposed to solve the nonlinear convection-diffusion equation on a time-varying domain whose boundary is implicitly driven by the solution of the equation. The method is semi-implicit in the sense that…

We introduce a nonconforming virtual element method for the Poisson equation on domains with curved boundary and internal interfaces. We prove arbitrary order optimal convergence in the energy and $L^2$ norms, and validate the theoretical…

We prove that if a subset of a $d$-dimensional vector space over a finite field with $q$ elements has more than $q^{d-1}$ elements, then it determines all the possible directions. If a set has more than $q^k$ elements, it determines a…

Hypersurfaces embedded in conformal manifolds appear frequently as boundary data in boundary-value problems in cosmology and string theory. Viewed as the non-null conformal infinity of a spacetime, we consider hypersurfaces embedded in a…

This paper gives the first explicit example of a finite separating set in an invariant ring which is not finitely generated, namely, for Daigle and Freudenburg's 5-dimensional counterexample to Hilbert's Fourteenth Problem.

In this paper we consider finite groups G satisfying the following condition: G has two columns in its character table which differ by exactly one entry. It turns out that such groups exist and they are exactly the finite groups with a…

In bounded convex domains, the regularity estimates of a vector field $\u$ with its $\dv\u$, $\curl\u$ in $L^r$ space and the tangential components or the normal component of $\u$ over the boundary in $L^r$ space, are established for…

We study some global aspects of the bifurcation of an equivariant family of volume-contracting vector fields on the three-dimensional sphere. When part of the symmetry is broken, the vector fields exhibit Bykov cycles. Close to the…

We propose V--cycle multigrid methods for vector field problems arising from the lowest order hexahedral N\'{e}d\'{e}lec finite element. Since the conventional scalar smoothing techniques do not work well for the problems, a new type of…

Let $V$ be a finite dimensional vector space over a finite field. Suppose that $\mathscr{F}_1$, $\mathscr{F}_2$, $\dots$, $\mathscr{F}_r$ are $r$-cross $t$-intersecting families of $k$-subspaces of $V$. In this paper, we determine the…

For a hypersurface V of a conformal space, we introduce a conformal differential invariant I = h^2/g, where g and h are the first and the second fundamental forms of V connected by the apolarity condition. This invariant is called the…

Let $(E,\xi)={\rm ind}(E_n, \xi_n)$ be an inductive limit of a sequence $(E_n, \xi_n)_{n\in N}$ of locally convex spaces and let every step $(E_n, \xi_n)$ be endowed with a partial order by a pointed convex (solid) cone $S_n$. In the…

We construct nontrivial unbounded domains $\Omega$ in the hyperbolic space $\mathbb{H}^N$, $N \in \{2,3,4\}$, bifurcating from the complement of a ball, such that the overdetermined elliptic problem \begin{equation} -\Delta_{\mathbb{H}^N}…

Among those nearly incompressible vector fields ${\bf{v}}:{\mathbb{R}}^n\to{\mathbb{R}}^n$ with $|x|\log|x|$ growth at infinity, we give a pointwise characterization of the ones for which $\operatorname{curl}{\bf{v}}= D{\bf{v}}-D^t{\bf{v}}$…
