Let u be a function on a connected finite graph G = (V, E). We consider the mean field equation (1) $-{\Delta}u={\rho}\({\frac{he^u}{\int_Vhe^ud{\mu}}}-{\frac{1}{{\mid}V{\mid}}}\),$ where ∆ is 𝜇-Laplacian on the graph, 𝜌 ∈ ℝ\{0}, h : V → ℝ⁺ is a function satisfying min_x∈V h(x) > 0. Following Sun and Wang [15], we use the method of Brouwer degree to prove the existence of solutions to the mean field equation (1). Firstly, we prove the compactness result and conclude that every solution to the equation (1) is uniformly bounded. Then the Brouwer degree can be well defined. Secondly, we calculate the Brouwer degree for the equation (1), say $$d_{{\rho},h}=\{{-1,\;{\rho}>0, \atop 1,\;{\rho}<0.}$$ Consequently, the equation (1) has at least one solution due to the Brouwer degree d_𝜌,h ≠ 0.

This study finds three different solutions (3-Sol's) for the fourth order nonlinear discrete anisotropic equations (DAE) with real parameter. We use the variational method(VM) and 𝜙_p-Laplacian operator (𝜙_p-LO) to prove the main results. In the following paper, we take the parameters λ, 𝜇 such that λ > 0 and 𝜇 ≥ 0 into consideration.

In this paper we give conditions for the existence of, and describe the asymtotic behavior of, radial positive solutions of the nonlinear elliptic equation of Emden-Fowler type with convection term ∆_p u + 𝛼|u|^q-1u + 𝛽x.∇(|u|^q-1u) = 0 for x ∈ ℝ^N, where p > 2, q > 1, N ≥ 1, 𝛼 > 0, 𝛽 > 0 and ∆_p is the p-Laplacian operator. In particular, we determine ${\lim}_{r{\rightarrow}}{\infty}\,r^{\frac{p}{q+1-p}}\,u(r)$ when $\frac{{\alpha}}{{\beta}}$ > N > p and $q\,{\geq}\,{\frac{N(p-1)+p}{N-p}}$.

Due to development of visual media in various industrial sectors, the importance of image processing is increasing. Among the various image processing areas, edge detection is utilized widely for various fields such as object recognition, object segmentation, the medical and other industries. Edge includes the critical factors of images like size, direction and location. Then conventional methods such as Sobel, Prewitt, Roberts and Laplacian are proposed to detect edge. However, edge detection property of these methods is declined when they are applied to the image which corrupted by AWGN(Additive White Gaussian Noise). Therefore, an algorithm using modified weighted filter is proposed in this paper and our method has excellent property on edge detection.

In this paper, we propose a new post-processing method which can solve a problem of MSDS(Mean Squared Difference of Slope) method. Using that method the blocking artifacts can significantly be reduced without any restriction, which is a major drawback of block-based DCT compression method. In this approach, the OSLD(Overlapped Sub-Laplacian Distribution) of dequantized block boundary pixel difference values is defined and used to categorize each block of an image into one of four types. Those types are also classified into one of two classes: an edge and a non-edge classes. A slope across the block boundary is used to quantify discontinuity of the image. If an absolute estimated quantization error value of a DCT coefficient is greater than the corresponding quantization step size, it is saturated to the step size in the edge class. The proposed post-processing method can improve not only the PSNR value up to 0.1~O.3 dB but visual quality without any constraints determined by ad-hoc manner.

In this paper, we classify translation surfaces of Type 2 in the three dimensional simply isotropic space ${\mathbb{I}}_3^1$ satisfying some algebraic equations in terms of the coordinate functions and the Laplacian operators with respect to the first, the second and the third fundamental form of the surface. We also give explicit forms of these surfaces.

This paper deals with the existence and energy estimates of solutions for a class of degenerate nonlocal problems involving sub-linear nonlinearities, while the nonlinear part of the problem admits some hypotheses on the behavior at origin or perturbation property. In particular, for a precise localization of the parameter, the existence of a non-zero solution is established requiring the sublinearity of nonlinear part at origin and infinity. We also consider the existence of solutions for our problem under algebraic conditions with the classical Ambrosetti-Rabinowitz. In what follows, by combining two algebraic conditions on the nonlinear term which guarantees the existence of two solutions as well as applying the mountain pass theorem given by Pucci and Serrin, we establish the existence of the third solution for our problem. Moreover, concrete examples of applications are provided.

In this study, we classify surfaces of revolution of Type 1 in the three dimensional Galilean space 𝔾₃ in terms of the position vector field, Gauss map, and Laplacian operator of the first and the second fundamental forms on the surface. Furthermore, we give a classification of surfaces of revolution of Type 1 generated by a non-isotropic curve satisfying the pointwise 1-type Gauss map equation.

The key issue of block-based multi-focus image fusion is to determine the size of the sub-block because different sizes of the sub-block will lead to different fusion effects. To solve this problem, this paper presents a novel genetic algorithm (GA) based multi-focus image fusion method, in which the block size can be automatically found. In our method, the Sum-modified-Laplacian (SML) is selected as an evaluation criterion to measure the clarity of the image sub-block, and the edge information retention is employed to calculate the fitness of each individual. Then, through the selection, crossover and mutation procedures of the GA, we can obtain the optimal solution for the sub-block, which is finally used to fuse the images. Experimental results show that the proposed method outperforms the traditional methods, including the average, gradient pyramid, discrete wavelet transform (DWT), shift invariant DWT (SIDWT) and two existing GA-based methods in terms of both the visual subjective evaluation and the objective evaluation.

We studied the large scale dynamo process in a system forced by helical magnetic field. The dynamo process is basically nonlinear, but can be linearized with 𝛼&𝛽 coefficients and large scale magnetic field $\bar{B}$. This is very useful to the investigation of solar (stellar) dynamo. A coupled semi-analytic equations based on statistical mechanics are used to investigate the exact evolution of 𝛼&𝛽. This equation set needs only magnetic helicity ${\bar{H}}_M({\equiv}{\langle}{\bar{A}}{\cdot}{\bar{B}}{\rangle},\;{\bar{B}}={\nabla}{\times}{\bar{A}})$ and magnetic energy ${\bar{E}}_M({\equiv}{\langle}{\bar{B}}^2{\rangle}/2)$. They are fundamental physics quantities that can be obtained from the dynamo simulation or observation without any artificial modification or assumption. 𝛼 effect is thought to be related to magnetic field amplification. However, in reality the averaged 𝛼 effect decreases very quickly without a significant contribution to ${\bar{B}}$ field amplification. Conversely, 𝛽 effect contributing to the magnetic diffusion maintains a negative value, which plays a key role in the amplification with Laplacian ∇²(= - k²) for the large scale regime. In addition, negative magnetic diffusion accounts for the attenuation of plasma kinetic energy E_V(= 〈 U² 〉/2) (U: plasma velocity) when the system is saturated. The negative magnetic diffusion is from the interaction of advective term - U • ∇ B from magnetic induction equation and the helical velocity field. In more detail, when 'U' is divided into the poloidal component U_pol and toroidal one U_tor in the absence of reflection symmetry, they interact with - B • ∇ U and - U • ∇ B from ∇ × 〈 U × B 〉 leading to 𝛼 effect and (negative) 𝛽 effect, respectively. We discussed this process using the theoretical method and intuitive field structure model supported by the simulation result.
