Periodic functions and their generalizations

Joelma Azevedo

Abstract We will do a brief study about the periodicity theory.

1.1 Introduction

In the early 20th century, Harald Bohr introduced the concept of almost periodic
functions. This concept generalizes of natural way the periodic functions. The
Bohr’s theory quickly attracted the attention of many famous mathematicians: S.
Bochner, J. von Neumann, V. V. Stepanov, H. Weyl, N. Wiener and M. Frcht.
Presently has appeared in the literature various concepts that represent the idea
of approximately periodic function, for example: the asymptoticaly almost periodic
functions (see [1], [2]) and the asymptotically periodic functions (see [3]). We note
that the concrete systems are usually subject to external perturbations that are not
periodics. In many real situations we can assume that these perturbations are ap-
proximately periodics in a broad sense.
Recently appeared the notion of S-asymptotically ω-periodicity (see [4]) that is
a generalization of the classic asymptotically ω-periodicity. This new notion has
interesting applications in several branches of evolution equations (see[4], [5], [6],
[7], [8], [9], [10]).
And it is due to the importance of periodicity theory in the study of concrete
problems that we study here some these of functions.

1.2 Preliminaries

Throughout the text, (X, k · kX ) and (Y, k · kY ) denote Banach spaces. Let be I ⊆ R an
interval (not necessarily bounded). We denote by Cb (I, X) the Banach space formed
by all continuous limited functions from I into X, endowed with the supremum
norm. We too denote by C0 ([0, ∞), X) the linear subspace formed by all f ∈ Cb (I, X),
such that limt→∞ k f (t)kX = 0. It is well know that C0 ([0, ∞), X) endowed with the
supremum norm, is a Banach space.
Definition 1.1. A limited continuous function f : R → X is said to be periodic if
exist a constant ω ∈ R, with ω > 0, such that

f (t + ω) = f (t), for all t ∈ R.

In this case, we say that ω is the period of f and that f is a ω-periodic function. We
use the notation Pω (X) to represent the set formed by all ω-periodic functions.
Remark 1.1. 1. Pω (X) is a linear subspace of Cb (R, X).
2. Pω (X) endowed with the norm of uniform convergence, k · k∞ , is a Banach space.

1.3 Periodicity

1.3.1 Almost periodic functions

Definition 1.2. [11] A continuous function is called almost periodic if, for every
ε > 0, there exists l = l(ε) > 0 such that every interval [t0 ,t0 + l(ε)], contains at
least one number τ for which

k f (t + τ) − f (t)kX < ε, t ∈ R.

The number τ is called ε-period of f . We use the notation AP(X) to represent the
set formed by all almost periodic functions.
Remark 1.2. 1. AP(X) is a linear subspace of Cb ([0, ∞)). In addition, AP(X) en-
dowed with the norm of uniform convergence, k · k∞ , is a Banach space (see [13],
section 3.5).
2. Every periodic function is an almost periodic function, but the converse assertion
is not true. Indeed, the function f : R → R given by
√
f (t) = sin(t) + sin( 2t),

is an almost periodic function, but is not periodic.

Theorem 1.1. [12] A continuous function f : R → X is almost periodic if and only
if for all sequence {xn }n∈N ⊂ R there exists a subsequence {yn }n∈N ⊂ {xn }n∈N such
that { f (t + yn )}n∈N converges uniformly in t.
1 Periodic functions and their generalizations 5

1.3.2 Asymptotically almost-periodic functions

Definition 1.3. [1], [2] A continuous function f : [0, ∞) → X is called asymptotically

almost-periodic if it admit one decomposition

f = g + h,

where g ∈ AP(X) and h ∈ C0 ([0, ∞), X). We use the notation AAP(X) to represent
the set formed by all asymptotically almost-periodic functions.
Remark 1.3. (AAP(X), k · k∞ ) is a Banach space (see [14]).
Proposition 1.1. [14] AAP(X) = AP(X) ⊕ C0 ([0, ∞), X)
Proposition 1.2. [14] Any asymptotically almost-periodic function is bounded and
uniformly continuous.
Proposition 1.3. [14] Let be f : [0, ∞) → X an asymptotically almost-periodic func-
tion and F : cl(Im( f )) → X a continuous function. Then F ◦ f : [0, ∞) → X is also
asymptotically almost-periodic.

1.3.3 Asymptotically ω-periodic functions

Definition 1.4. [3] Given be ω > 0, we define the space of asymptotically ω-

periodic functions by

APω (X) := Pω (X) ⊕ C0 ([0, ∞), X).

Remark 1.4. (APω (X), k · k∞ ) is a Banach space. In addition, APω (X) is a proper
subspace of AAP(X)

1.3.4 S-asymptotically ω-periodic function

Definition 1.5. [4] A function f ∈ Cb (R+ ; X) is called S-asymptotically ω-periodic

if
lim ( f (t + ω) − f (t)) = 0
t→∞

In this case, we say that ω is asymptotic period of f . We use the notation SAPω (X)
to represent the subspace of Cb (R+ ; X) formed by all S-asymptotically ω-periodic
functions.
Remark 1.5. 1. (SAPω (X), k · k∞ ) is a Banach space.
2. Every asymptotically ω-periodic function is a S-asymptotically ω-periodic func-
tion. However the converse assertion is not verified.
6 Joelma Azevedo

3. The range of an asymptotically ω-periodic function is a relatively compact set,

while the range of an S-asymptotically ω-periodic function is only a bounded
set.

Definition 1.6. [15] We say that a continuous function f : R+ × X → Y is uniformly

S-asymptotically ω-periodic on bounded sets of X if for every bounded subset K of
X, the set { f (t, x) : t ≥ 0, x ∈ K} is bounded and for every ε > 0 there is T (K, ε) ≥ 0
such that
k f (t, x) − f (t + ω, x)kY ≤ ε,
for all t ≥ T (K, ε) and all x ∈ K.

Definition 1.7. [15] A continuous function f : R+ × X → Y is said to be asymptoti-

cally uniformly continuous on bounded sets of X if for every ε > 0 and all bounded
set K ⊆ X there are constants T = Tε,K and δ = δε,K > 0 such that

k f (t, x) − f (t, y)kY ≤ ε,

for all t ≥ T and x, y ∈ K, with kx − ykX ≤ δ .

Lemma 1.1. [15] Assume that f : R+ ×X → Y is a function uniformly S-asymptotically

ω-periodic on bounded sets of X and asymptotically uniformly continuous on
bounded sets of X. Let u : R+ → X be an S-asymptotically ω-periodic function, then
the Nemytskii function F : R+ → Y defined by F(t) = f (t, u(t)) is S-asymptotically
ω-periodic.

1.3.5 Pseudo S-asymptotically ω-periodic functions

Definition 1.8. [16] A function f ∈ Cb (R+ ; X) is called pseudo S-asymptotically

periodic if there is ω > 0 such that
Z t
1
lim k f (s + ω) − f (s)kX ds = 0.
t→∞ t 0

In this case, we say that f is pseudo S-asymptotically ω-periodic. We use the no-
tation PSAPω (X) to represent the subspace of Cb (R+ ; X) formed by all pseudo S-
asymptotically ω-periodic functions.

Remark 1.6. 1. (PSAPω (X), k · kin f ty ) is a Banach space.

2. APω (X) ,→ SAPω (X) ,→ PSAPω (X), with PSAPω (X) 6= SAPω (X) (see [16]).

Definition 1.9. [17] We say that a continuous function f : R+ × X → Y is uniformly

pseudo S-asymptotically ω-periodic on bounded sets of X if for every bounded sub-
set K ⊆ X,
1 t
Z
lim sup k f (s + ω, x) − f (s, x)kY ds = 0.
t→∞ t 0 x∈K
1 Periodic functions and their generalizations 7

Definition 1.10. [17] A continuous function f : R+ × X → Y is said to be asymp-

totically bounded on bounded sets of X if for every bounded subset K ⊆ X, there is
TK > 0 so that the set
{ f (t, x) : t ≥ TK , x ∈ K}
is bounded.

Definition 1.11. [4] A continuous function f : R+ × X → Y is said to be asymptoti-

cally uniformly continuous on bounded sets of X if for every ε > 0 and all bounded
set K ⊂ X, there are constants T = Tε,K ≥ 0 and δ = δε,K > 0 such that

k f (t, x) − f (t, y)kY < ε,

for all t ≥ T and x, y ∈ K, with kx − ykX ≤ δ .

Lemma 1.2. [17] Let f : R+ × X → Y be a function bounded on bounded sets of X,

uniformly continuous on bounded sets of X and uniformly pseudo S-asymptotically
ω-periodic on bounded sets of X. If u : R+ → X is a pseudo S-asymptotically ω-
periodic function, then the Nemytskii map v(t) = f (t, u(t)) is pseudo S-asymptotically
ω-periodic.

Fractional Volterra Equations with Nonlocal

Initial Conditions

Thamires Santos Cruz

Abstract The study of evolution equations with nonlocal initial conditions began in
the 1980s with applications in elasticity and viscoelasticity in materials with mem-
ory. In 1991, Byszewskii et al [1] introduced nonlocal conditions in initial value
problems, which are a generalization of classical initial condition. Lately, various
papers have been dedicated to the study of existence of solutions for differential
equations with nonlocal conditions. For example, in [2] the nonlocal condition is
used to describe the diffusion phenomenon of a small amount of gas in a transparent
tube. In [3], de Andrade et al set suficient conditions for existence and regularity of
mild solutions for the Problem

for all t ∈ [0, ∞) and r, s ∈ R. In these cases,this type of condition incorporates more
information because the initial conditions are changed for conditions depending on
the state. Therefore they are more accurate for physical measurements than the clas-
sical conditions. In this talk we will analyze the existence of mild solutions to a
family of fractional Volterra equations with nonlocal initial conditions.

In recent years, the study of periodicity and its various extensions for evolution
equations has attracted a great deal of attention of many mathematicians. In 2013
it has appeared a new notion of asymptotically periodic functions called pseudo S-
asymptotically ω-periodic functions. Such concept was introduced in the seminal
paper [3] where the authors present a discussion of the differences with the stan-
dard class of asymptotically periodic functions. In the literature some interesting
applications of the new type of functions are given in several branches of evolutions
equations, like fractional equations and flexible structures possessing internal mate-
rial damping and external force (see [5], [4]). To date, the literature concerning to
asymptotic periodicity of equations 5.1 - 5.2 is incipient and by cause of the rapid
evolutions of the notions of pseudo S-asymptotically ω-periodic functions, we study
the existence of this class of solutions to the problem 5.1 - 5.2 .

5.2 Preliminaries

In this case, we say that f is pseudo S-asymptotically ω-periodic.

Remark 5.2. We use the notation PSAPω (Y ) to represent the subspace of Cb ([0, ∞];Y )
formed by all pseudo S-asymptotically ω-periodic functions. This subspace en-

Exponential dichotomy and boundedness for
retarded functional difference equations

Felix Bernardo

Abstract In this paper from Fernando Cardoso and Claudio Cuevas they charac-
terise the exponential dichotomy of difference equations with infinite delay and
apply the results to study the robustness of exponential dichotomy. This kind of
dichotomy gives us relevant information about boundedness of solutions for several
perturbed quasi linear systems with infinite delay. Applications to Volterra differ-
ence equations are shown.

Periodic solutions of abstract functional

differential equations with state-dependent delay

Filipe Andrade,Claudio Cuevas and Hernán R. Henrı́quez

Abstract In this work we are concerned with the existence of solutions of sys-
tems determined by abstract functional differential equations with infinite and state-
dependent delay. We establish the existence of mild solutions and the existence of
periodic solutions. Our results are based on local Lipschitz conditions of the in-
volved functions.

7.1 Introduction

Numerous models that arise in applications are properly described using functional
differential equations with state-dependent delay. For this reason the theory of func-
tional differential equations with state-dependent delay has become in recent years
in an attractive area of research. We mention the works [1, 2, 3, 4, 7, 8, 9] and the
references therein for information on recent results in this area.

The aim of this work is to establish results about the existence of mild solutions
and the existence of periodic solutions for models described by partial or abstract
functional differential equations with state-dependent delay.
Specifically, in this presentation we study the existence of mild and periodic so-
lutions for a class of abstract retarded functional differential equations (abbreviated,
ARFDE) with state-dependent delay described by

x0 (t) = Ax(t) + f (t, xρ(t,xt ) ), t ∈ I, (7.1)

x0 = ϕ. (7.2)

where x(t) ∈ X, and A, f , ρ are functions that will be defined later.

We consider I = [0, a] for fixed a > 0 or I = [0, ∞). We assume that A is the
infinitesimal generator of a strongly continuous semigroup of bounded linear oper-
ators (T (t))t≥0 defined on X. We consider (8.1) as an ARFDE with infinite delay.
For this reason, the function xt , which is usually known as the segment of x(·) at t,
is defined by xt : (−∞, 0) → X, xt (θ ) = x(t + θ ). We assume that xt ∈ B, where B
is the phase space for the equation.

7.2 Preliminaries

We will employ an axiomatic definition for the phase space B similar to those in-
troduced by Hale and Kato [5], but defined as in [6]. Specifically,B will be a linear
space of functions mapping (−∞, 0] into X endowed with a seminorm k · kB and
satisfying the following axioms:
(A)If x : (−∞, σ + a) → X, a > 0, is continuous on [σ , σ + a] and xσ ∈ B then for
every t in [σ , σ + a) the following conditions hold:
(i) xt ∈ B.
(ii)kx(t)k ≤ Hkxt kB .
(iii)kxt kB ≤ K(t − σ ) sup{kx(s)k : σ ≤ s ≤ t} + M(t − σ )kxσ kB .
Where H ≥ 0 is a constant; K, M : [0, ∞) → [0, ∞), K is continuous and M is locally
bounded and H, K and M are independent of x.
) the function x in (A), xt is a B-valued continuous functions on [σ , σ + a).
(A1For
(B)The space B is complete.
In the theory of retarded functional differential equations with unbounded delay
frequently we need additional properties of the space B to obtain some results. Next
we denote by C00 (X) the space of continuous functions from (−∞, 0] into X with
compact support. In this work we consider the following axiom ([6]).
(C-2) If a uniformly bounded sequence (ϕ n )n in C00 converges to a function ϕ in
the compact-open topology, then ϕ belongs to B and kϕ n − ϕkB → 0, as n → ∞.
 Title Suppressed Due to Excessive Length 29

Let S(t) : B → B be the C0 -semigroup defined by S(t)ϕ(θ ) = ϕ(0) for θ ∈

[−t, 0] and S(t)ϕ(θ ) = ϕ(t + θ ) for θ ∈ (−∞, −t]. Let B0 = {ϕ ∈ B : ϕ(0) = 0}.
We denote by S0 (t) the restriction of S(t) to B0 .

(FMS) The space B is said to be a fading memory space if it verifies axiom (C-2)
and S0 (t)ϕ → 0 as t → ∞ for all ϕ ∈ B0 .
(UFMS) The space B is said to be a uniformly fading memory space if it verifies
(C-2) and kS0 (t)kB → 0 as t → ∞.
(T (t))t≥0 is said to be uniformly exponentially stable if there exist constant Me≥
1 and γ > 0 such that
e −γt , t ≥ 0.
kT (t)k ≤ Me (7.3)

7.3 Existence of mild solutions

We consider initially I = [0, a]. We introduce the following Carathéodory conditions

for the function f .
(F1)(i) For every ψ ∈ B the function f (·, ψ) : I → X, t 7→ f (t, ψ), is strongly measurable
and the function f (·, 0) is integrable on I.
(ii) There exists a constant L1 > 0 such that

k f (t, ϕ2 ) − f (t, ϕ1 )k ≤ L1 kϕ2 − ϕ1 kB , ϕ1 , ϕ2 ∈ B, (7.4)

for all t ∈ [0, a].

(F2) For every r > 0, there exists a constant L2 (r) > 0 such that

k f (t, xt2 ) − f (t, xt1 )k ≤ L2 (r)|t2 − t1 |, t,t1 ,t2 ∈ [0, a],

for all function x : (−∞, a] → X such that x0 = ψ ∈ B, x : [0, a] → X is continuous

and max kx(s)k ≤ r.
0≤s≤a

(R) The function ρ : I × B → [0, ∞) satisfies:

(i) For every ψ ∈ B, the function t 7→ ρ(t, ψ) is continuous.
(ii) There exists a constant Lρ > 0 such that

|ρ(t, ϕ2 ) − ρ(t, ϕ1 )| ≤ Lρ kϕ2 − ϕ1 kB , ϕ1 , ϕ2 ∈ B,

for all t ∈ [0, a].

We consider the following concept of mild solution.
Definition 7.1. A function x : (−∞, a] → X is said to be a mild solution of prob-
lem (8.1)-(7.2) if x0 = ϕ, the function x : [0, a] → X is continuous and the integral
equation

ρ(t + ω, ψ) = ρ(t, ψ)

for all t ≥ 0 and ψ ∈ B.

(R) are fulfilled on [0, ω], and condition (7.3) holds. Then problem (8.1)-(7.2) has a

Existence of solutions for a family of nonlinear

Volterra equations coming from the
viscoelasticity theory

Bruno de Andrade, Claudio Cuevas and Clessius Silva

Abstract This paper is dedicated to the study of a family of nonlinear Volterra equa-
tions coming from the theory of viscoelasticity. We analyze the existence of local
mild solutions to the problem and their possible continuation to a maximal interval
of existence with blow-up criterion.

8.1 Introduction

Consider a homogeneous isotropic incompressible viscoelastic fluid which occupies

a region Ω ⊂ R3 . From Prüss [5] the velocity field u(t, x) of the fluid is governed by
the equations

where p(t, x) is the hydrostatic pressure in the fluid, kernel dg is the shear modulus
and h(t, x) is an external body force field, e.g., gravity, see [3, 5]. We remember that
the shear modulus is the only function needed to describe a homogeneous isotropic
linear fluid. For example, if in the above equation g(t) = ν > 0, t > 0, the fluid
is called Newtonian and ν is called the viscosity of the fluid. In the situation of a
Newtonian fluid the above problem becomes the well known linear Navier-Stokes
tα
system. On the other hand, if in the above equation g(t) = Γ (α+1) , t > 0 and 0 <
α < 1 the fluid is called Power Type Materials.
Let Ω ⊂ R3 be a bounded smooth domain. In this work we consider the following
family of nonlinear Volterra equations

where p and h are given functions, 0 ≤ α < 1 and gα (t) = Γ (α+1) , t > 0. We are
particularly interested in the theory of existence, uniqueness and regularity of lo-
cal mild solutions to the above problem as well as their possible continuation to a
maximal interval of existence.

Some nonlocal logistic population model with

nonzero boundary condition

Patricio Cerda Loyola

Abstract A classic model of behaviour of species in a domain Ω is given by

(
−∆ u = u(λ − b(x)u p ) in Ω ,
(P1 )
u=0 on ∂ Ω .

where u(x) is the population density in x ∈ Ω for a some species, Ω represents the
habitat of the species, λ ∈ R is the rate of population growth y b is a positive function
denoting the carrying capacity, in others words, b(x) describes the effect of limiting
population agglomeration. In this presentation we study some type of equations
that generalize the model the behaviour of species inhabiting in some habitat. For
our purpose using a priori bounded techniques we obtain a positive solution to a
family of non local partial differential equations with non homogeneous boundary
conditions.

Nonstationary flows of micropolar fluids

10.1 Introduction

In this talk we consider the nonhomogeneous incompressible asymmetric fluids

equations

 ρ ut + (u · ∇)u − (µ + µr )∆ u + ∇p = 2µr curl w + ρ f ,
div u = 0,



 ρ wt + (u · ∇)w − (ca + cd )∆ w − (c0 + cd − ca )∇(div w) + 4µr w = 2µr curl u + ρg,

in the cylinder Ω × (0, T ), where Ω ( R3 is a bounded open set and (0, T ) is a time
interval with 0 < T ≤ ∞. We complement this system with the following initial and
boundary conditions

u(x,t) = w(x,t) = 0, ∀ (x,t) ∈ ∂ Ω × (0, T ), (10.2)

ρ(x, 0) = ρ0 (x), u(x, 0) = u0 (x), w(x, 0) = w0 (x), ∀x ∈ Ω. (10.3)

In system (10.1), the unknowns ρ(x,t) ∈ R+ , u(x,t) ∈ R3 , p(x,t) ∈ R and

w(x,t) ∈ R3 are, respectively, the mass density, the linear velocity, the pressure dis-
tribution and the angular velocity of rotation of the fluid particles as functions of the
position x and of the time t. The positive constants µ, µr , c0 , ca and cd represent
viscosity coefficients and satisfy the inequality c0 + cd > ca . The functions f and g
are given external forces. By ∇, ∆ , div and rot we denote the gradient, Laplacian,

divergence and rotational operators, respectively; ut , wt and ρt stand for the time
derivatives of u, w and ρ.
For the derivation of equations (10.1) and a discussion about their physical mean-
ing, see [14, 21, 27]. Concerning applications, the micropolar fluid model has been
used, for example, in lubrication theory [15, 16], as well as in modeling blood flow
in thin vessels [17].
Observe that if µr = 0 and w = 0 = g, then system 10.1 is reduced to the nonho-
mogeneous Navier-Stokes equations (see [4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13]). Concern-
ing the model considered in this talk, we will recall the results established by [20]
on the existence of weak solutions for short time (see also [21]). Later the results
given by Braz e Silva and Santos in [1, 2] on he existence of weak solutions with
ρ ≥ 0 . The existence and uniqueness of strong solutions given by [25, 26], using
the linearization and by the method of successive approximations and the results
obtained Boldrini et al. [19], using the semi-Galerkin spectral approximations (the
rate of convergence of this method was studied in [18]). Another problem impor-
tant was studied by [22, 23] the authors prove that there exists a small time interval
where the fluid variables converge uniformly as the viscosities tend to zero. In the
limit, they find a nonhomogeneous, non-viscous, incompressible asymmetric fluid
governed by an Euler-like system in the case R3 . The case of general three dimen-
sional domains with boundary uniformly of class C3 was analyzed by [24] where the
authors established the existence of local in time semi-strong solutions and global
in time strong solutions for the system of equations describing flows of viscous and
incompressible asymmetric fluids with variable density. We also, we present the re-
sults of variational inequalities related given by [32].
Finally, we present some results when ρ = constant and we will show some prob-
lems in open.

Convolution Invariance of Weighted Almost

Automorphic Functions and Abstract Neutral
Integral Equations

Felipe Poblete

Abstract In this talk we show a systematic study of two type convolution opera-
tor K1 , K2 , depending on the kernels k1 ∈ L1 (R+ ) and k2 ∈ L2 (R− ) respectively
and defined on the weighted pseudo almost automorphic functions space denoted
by PAA(X, ρ). The purpose of this, is to ensure the existence and uniqueness of so-
lutions in PAA(X, ρ) for general abstract neutral integral equations. Upon making
several different assumptions on k1 , k2 and ρ we exhibit results about the convolu-
tion invariance of K1 and K2 on PAA(X, ρ). The results on convolution are applied
to obtain new results about composition and existence of unique mild solution in
PAA(X, ρ) for general abstract integral equations. In which the regulating effect of
the convolution is used in the contractive conditions involved. Many particular cases
of the results obtained allow us to establish different and new results about the ex-
istence and uniqueness of mild solutions in PAA(X, ρ) of some integro differential
equations, partial differential equations, logistic equations and differential equations
of first and fractional order, among other. Several examples and concrete classes of
differential equations illustrate our results.

Asymptotics to the transmission problems with

localized Kelvin-Voigt dissipation

Jaime Muñoz Rivera, Verónica Poblete, Juan C. Pozo and Octavio Vera

Abstract We consider a material composed by three components, one of them is a

Kelvin-Voigt viscoelastic material, the second is an elastic material (no dissipation)
and the third is a material with stress memory. Our main result is that the rate of de-
cay depends on the position of each component. When the viscoelastic component
is not in the middle of the material, then the solution decays exponentially. Other-
wise, there is a lack of exponential stability and the corresponding solution decays
polynomially as 1/t 2 . Moreover we show the optimality of the polynomial decay.

Asymtotic behavior of weak and strong solutions

of the magnetohydrodynamic equations

Eduardo Notte Cuello, J.L. Boldrini, Bravo-Olivares, J. and Rojas-Medar, M.A

Abstract In this work we study the asymptotic behavier of weak and strong solution
of the magnetohydrodynamic type equations and show that in 2-dimensional case, a
stationary solution is asymptotically stable. In the 3-dimensional case, conditions of
regularity over the unknowns variables and their temporal derivatives are necessary.

Modelamiento de propagación de frentes en

incendios forestales

Stefan Berres

Abstract En la recuperación mejorada de petróleo una estrategia consiste en inyec-

tar espuma en el pozo de petróleo, motivado por las propiedades reológicas favore-
cidas de la espuma.
En un modelo idealizado se describe la interfáz dentro del petróleo y la espuma por
el frente que separa ambos fases.
La velocidad de propagación de un punto material en el frente es inversamente pro-
porcional a la longitud de trayectoria de un punto material en el frente. El frente
puede ser modelada explı́citamente a través de un sistema de ecuaciones diferen-
ciales ordinarias en los puntos materiales en el frente, o implı́citamente por un sis-
tema de ecuaciones de Hamilton-Jacobi. Dichas ecuaciones podrán ser resueltas por
aproximaciones analı́tcas y simulaciones numéricas, respectivamente [1].
El mismo tipo de modelamiento de propagación de frentes es aplicable a incendios
forestales, donde el frente del fuego se ubica en una interfaz cero definida como el
contorno entre el área quemada y no quemada.
La formulación de incendios forestales por ecuaciones de Hamilton-Jacobi permitirá
una simulación por el método de conjunto de nivel, que permita una alta resolución
de lo que pasa con el frente.
Los modelos principales para incendios forestales se basan en datos experimen-
tales, que confirmen que la velocidad de propagación del fuego es dado en función
del contexto donde se desarrolle considerando el tipo de combustible, la humedad,
la velocidad del viento, o la pendiente del terreno.
En la presentación se indicarán los desafı́os principales que parten del mismo mod-
elamiento de las ecuaciones consideradas [2].

Sobre el radio espectral esencial y sus

aplicaciones a los sistemas dinámicos

Jaime Muñoz

Abstract En esta conferencia mostraremos la importancia del radio espectral es-

encial (definido através del Algebra de Calkin) en la teoria de semigrupos de op-
eradores lineales. Mostraremos condiciones necesárias y sificientes para caracteri-
zar la estabilidad exponencial de semigrupos en espacios de Banach. Finalmente
mostraremos aplicaciones en la cuales esta resultado juega un papel importante.

Tasas de decaı́miento de ecuaciones diferenciales

nolocales

Juan C. Pozo

Abstract En esta charla mostraremos como combinar el método de subordinación

de Bochner y de Prüss para construir soluciones fundamentales de ecuaciones difer-
enciales nolocales en tiempo y espacio. Usando dichas soluciones, podemos repre-
sentar las soluciones clásicas de las ecuaciones y determinar tasas de decaı́miento
optimales.
