One-Dimensional Fractal Wave Equations
We study one-dimensional wave equations defined by a class of fractal Laplacians. These Laplacians are defined by fractal measures generated by iterated function systems with overlaps, such as the well-known infinite Bernoulli convolution associated with golden ratio and the 3-fold convolution of …

Fourier Analysis of Wave Equations
… to study the solution to an inhomogeneous wave equation on Euclidean spaces. I obtained the existence, uniqueness, and regularity for the solution. In the classical case, the datum involved is required to have up to C2 smoothness; my results treat the low regularity case and only require Hs …

Periodic solutions of nonlinear wave equations
… of periodic solutions for partial differential equations. The study of periodic solutions was introduced by H. Poincare in the memoire he presented on the three body problem. By looking at periodic and asymptotics solutions he discovered what today we call chaos, and showed that these special …

Multi-Symplectic Integrators for Nonlinear Wave Equations
… for Hamiltonian ordinary differential equations have shown to be robust, efficient and accurate in long-term calculations. In this thesis, we show how symplectic integrators have a natural generalization to Hamiltonian PDEs by introducing the concept of multi-symplectic partial …

A Numerical Method for Extended Boussinesq Shallow-Water Wave Equations
The accurate numerical simulation of wave disturbance within harbours requires consideration of both nonlinear and dispersive wave processes in order to capture such physical effects as wave refraction and diffraction, and nonlinear wave interactions such as the generation of harmonic waves. The …

BESOV WE11-POSEDNESS FOR HIGH DIMENSIONAL NON-LINEAR WAVE EQUATIONS
… [13] and [11], we solve the division problem for wave equations with generic quadratic non-linearities in high dimensions. Specifically, we show that non-linear wave equations which can be written as systems involving equations of the form Φ = Φ∇Φ and Φ = |∇Φ|^2 are well-posed with scattering in …
