In this paper, we consider the existence and uniqueness of global weak solution for a sixth-order classical surface-diffusion equation in one spatial dimension. Moreover, the regularity and blow-up of solutions are also studied.

In this paper, the concept of geodesic centered tractography is explored for diffusion tensor imaging (DTI). In DTI, where geodesics has been tracked and the inverse of the fourth-order diffusion tensor is inured to determine the diversity. Specifically, we investigated geodesic tractography technique for High Angular Resolution Diffusion Imaging (HARDI). Riemannian geometry can be extended to a direction-dependent metric using Finsler geometry. Euler Lagrange geodesic calculations have been derived by Finsler geometry, which is expressed as HARDI in sixth order tensor.

Three characteristics-based split-operator methods were applied to a longitudinal pollutant dispersion problem, and the results were compared with those of several Eulerian schemes. The split-operator methods consisted of generalized upwind, two-point fourth-order and sixth-order Holly-Preissmann schemes, respectively, for the advection calculation, and the Crank-Nicholson scheme for the diffusion calculation. Compared with the Eulerian schemes tested, split-operator methods using the Holly-Preissmann schemes gave much more accurate computational results. Eulerian schemes using centered difference approximations for the advection term resulted in numerical oscillations, and those using backward difference resulted in numerical diffusion, both of which were more severe for smaller value of the longitudinal dispersion coefficient.
