Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The aim of this Special Issue is to discuss the general theory of nonlinear dynamical systems and their applications. Many complicated physical processes are, usually, modelled by nonlinear dynamical systems described by partial differential equations, inclusions and inequalities. Such problems often balance the abstract functional analysis approach based on classes of nonlinear operators with concrete partial differential equations involving various nonlinearities. Its applications are numerous in physics, chemistry, biology, medicine, economics, etc. This Special Issue is devoted to new advances in and developments of many branches of dynamical systems with nonlinearities. It seeks to develop new mathematical tools and methods for the theoretical study of problems and to apply them to solving open problems in our real life.

Potential topics include but are not limited to the following:

  • Nonlinear dynamical systems;
  • Nonlinear partial differential equations;
  • Variational and hemivariational inequalities;
  • Chaos;
  • Bifurcation;
  • Fixed point approaches;
  • Continuum mechanics;
  • Well-posedness;
  • Optimal control theory;
  • Inverse problems;
  • Equilibrium problems;
  • Fluid mechanics;
  • Mathematical programming;
  • Fractional differential equations;
  • Mathematical modelling;
  • Nonlinear phenomena;
  • Numerical analysis;
  • Various applications.

This research aims to present a linear operator Lp,qρ,σ,μf utilizing the q-Mittag–Leffler function. Then, we introduce the subclass of harmonic (p,q)-convex functions HTp,q(ϑ,W,V) related to the Janowski function. For the harmonic p-valent functions f class, we investigate the harmonic geometric properties, such as coefficient estimates, convex linear combination, extreme points, and Hadamard product. Finally, the closure property is derived using the subclass HTp,q(ϑ,W,V) under the q-Bernardi integral operator. Full article

We introduce the Levinson functional on time scales using integral inequality of Levinson’s type in the terms of Δ-integral for convex (concave) functions on time scale sets and investigate its properties such as superadditivity and monotonicity. The obtained properties are used to derive the bounds of the given Levinson’s functional and those results provide a refinement and the converse of the known Levinson’s inequality on time scales. Further, we define new types of functionals using weighted generalized and power means on time scales, and prove their properties which can be employed in future works to obtain refinements and converses of known integral inequalities on time scales.

In this paper, we consider several classes of mappings related to the class of α-ϝ-contraction mappings by introducing a convexity condition and establish some fixed-point theorems for such mappings in complete metric spaces. The present result extends and generalizes the well-known results of α-admissible and convex contraction mapping and many others in the existing literature. An illustrative example is also provided to exhibit the utility of our main results. Finally, we derive the existence and uniqueness of a solution to an integral equation to support our main result and give a numerical example to validate the application of our obtained results.

This paper focuses on the asymptotic stability of second-order switched linear systems with positive real part conjugate complex roots for each subsystem. Compared with available studies, a more appropriate state-dependent switching rule is designed to stabilize a switched system with the phase trajectories of two subsystems rotating outward in the same direction or the opposite direction. Finally, several numerical examples are used to illustrate the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed method. Full article

In this paper, we introduce and study a new class of differential set-valued inverse variational inequalities in finite dimensional spaces. By applying a result on differential inclusions involving an upper semicontinuous set-valued mapping with closed convex values, we first prove the existence of Carathéodory weak solutions for differential set-valued inverse variational inequalities. Then, by the existence result, we establish the stability for the differential set-valued inverse variational inequality problem when the constraint set and the mapping are perturbed by two different parameters. The closedness and continuity of Carathéodory weak solutions with respect to the two different parameters are obtained. Full article

In this paper, some novel conditions for the stability results for a class of fractional-order quasi-linear impulsive integro-differential systems with multiple delays is discussed. First, the existence and uniqueness of mild solutions for the considered system is discussed using contraction mapping theorem. Then, novel conditions for Mittag–Leffler stability (MLS) of the considered system are established by using well known mathematical techniques, and further, the two corollaries are deduced, which still gives some new results. Finally, an example is given to illustrate the applications of the results. Full article

We consider a nonlinear eigenvalue problem driven by the Dirichlet (p,2)-Laplacian. The parametric reaction is a Carathéodory function which exhibits (p1)-sublinear growth as x+ and as x0+. Using variational tools and truncation and comparison techniques, we prove a bifurcation-type theorem describing the “spectrum” as λ>0 varies. We also prove the existence of a smallest positive eigenfunction for every eigenvalue. Finally, we indicate how the result can be extended to (p,q)-equations (q2). Full article

In this paper, we studied a nutrient–phytoplankton model with time delay and diffusion term. We studied the Turing instability, local stability, and the existence of Hopf bifurcation. Some formulas are obtained to determine the direction of the bifurcation and the stability of periodic solutions by the central manifold theory and normal form method. Finally, we verify the above conclusion through numerical simulation. Full article

The Gerdjikov–Ivanov (GI) equation is one type of derivative nonlinear Schrödinger equation used widely in quantum field theory, nonlinear optics, weakly nonlinear dispersion water waves and other fields. In this paper, the coupled GI equation on a time–space scale is deduced from Lax pairs and the zero curvature equation on a time–space scale, which can be reduced to the classical and the semi-discrete GI equation by considering different time–space scales. Furthermore, the Darboux transformation (DT) of the GI equation on a time–space scale is constructed via a gauge transformation. Finally, N-soliton solutions of the GI equation are given through applying its DT, which are expressed by the Cayley exponential function. At the same time, one-solition solutions are obtained on three different time–space scales ( X = R, X = C and X = Kp ). Full article

This paper focuses on two Dirichlet boundary value problems whose differential operators in the principal part exhibit a lack of ellipticity and contain a convection term (depending on the solution and its gradient). They are driven by a degenerated (p,q)-Laplacian with weights and a competing (p,q)-Laplacian with weights, respectively. The notion of competing (p,q)-Laplacians with weights is considered for the first time. We present existence and approximation results that hold under the same set of hypotheses on the convection term for both problems. The proofs are based on weighted Sobolev spaces, Nemytskij operators, a fixed point argument and finite dimensional approximation. A detailed example illustrates the effective applicability of our results. Full article

This paper investigates the problem of the global directed dynamic behaviors of a Lotka-Volterra competition-diffusion-advection system between two organisms in heterogeneous environments. The two organisms not only compete for different basic resources, but also the advection and diffusion strategies follow the dispersal towards a positive distribution. By virtue of the principal eigenvalue theory, the linear stability of the co-existing steady state is established. Furthermore, the classification of dynamical behaviors is shown by utilizing the monotone dynamical system theory. This work can be seen as a further development of a competition-diffusion system.
