By means of Green function and fixed point theorem related with cone theoretic method we show that there exist multiple nonnegative solutions of a Dirichlet problem $$\array{-[p(t)x^{\prime}(t)]^{\prime}={\lambda}q(t)f(x(t)),\;t{\in}I=[0,\;T]\\x(0)=0=x(T)}$$, and a mixed problem $$\array{-[p(t)x^{\prime}(t)]^{\prime}={\mu}q(t)f(x(t)),\;t{\in}I=[0,\;T]\\x^{\prime}(0)=0=x(T)}$$, where ${\lambda}$ and ${\mu}$ are positive parameters.

This paper addresses the nonparametric Bayesian estimation for the exponential populations under type II censoring. The Dirichlet process prior is used to provide nonparametric Bayesian estimates of parameters of exponential populations. In the past, there have been computational difficulties with nonparametric Bayesian problems. This paper solves these difficulties by a Gibbs sampler algorithm. This procedure is applied to a real example and is compared with a classical estimator.

The purpose of this paper is to investigate the piecewise wise polynomial approximation for the curved boundary. We analyze the error of an approximated solution due to this approximation and then compare the approximation errors for the cases of polygonal and piecewise polynomial approximations for the curved boundary. Based on the results of analysis, p-version numerical methods for solving Dirichlet's problems are applied to any smooth curved domain.

Mathematical formulation and numerical solutions of an optimal Dirichlet boundary control problem for the Boussinesq equations are considered. The solution of the optimal control problem is obtained by adjusting of the temperature on the boundary. We analyze finite element approximations. A gradient method for the solution of the discrete optimal control problem is presented and analyzed. Finally, the results of some computational experiments are presented.

A full multigrid scheme was used in computing some eigenvalues of the Laplace eigenvalues problem with the Dirichlet bound-ary condition. We get a system of algebraic equations with an aid of finite difference method and apply subspace iteration method to the system to compute first some eigenvalues. The result shows that this is very effective in calculating some eigenvalues of this problem.

We consider the boundary value problem with a Dirichlet condition for a second order linear uniformly elliptic operator in a non-divergence form. We study some properties of a barrier at infinity which was introduced by Meyers and Serrin to investigate a solution in an exterior domains. Also, we construct a modified barrier for more general domain than an exterior domain.

Since changepoint identification is important in many data analysis problem, we wish to make inference about the locations of one or more changepoints of the sequence. We consider the Bayesian nonparameteric inference for multiple changepoint problem using a Bayesian segmentation procedure proposed by Yang and Kuo (2000). A mixture of products of Dirichlet process is used as a prior distribution. To decide whether there exists a single change or not, our approach depends on nonparametric Bayesian Schwartz information criterion at each step. We discuss how to choose the precision parameter (total mass parameter) in nonparametric setting and show that the discreteness of the Dirichlet process prior can ha17e a large effect on the nonparametric Bayesian Schwartz information criterion and leads to conclusions that are very different results from reasonable parametric model. One example is proposed to show this effect.

In this paper, we study singular Dirichlet boundary value problems involving ϕ-Laplacian. Using fixed point index theory, the existence of positive solutions is established under the assumption that the nonlinearity f = f(u) has a positive falling zero and is either superlinear or sublinear at u = 0.

In this paper, we solve the three-dimensional biharmonic equation with Dirichlet boundary conditions of second kind using the full multigrid (FMG) algorithm. We derive a finite difference approximations for the biharmonic equation on a 18 point compact stencil. The unknown solution and its second derivatives are carried as unknowns at grid points. In the multigrid methods, we use a fourth order interpolation to producing a new intermediate unknown functions values on a finer grid, and the full weighting restriction operators to calculating the residuals at coarse grid points. A set of test problems gives excellent results.
