The journal Asymptotic Analysis fulfills a twofold function. It aims at publishing original mathematical results in the asymptotic theory of problems affected by the presence of small or large parameters on the one hand, and at giving specific indications of their possible applications to different fields of natural sciences on the other hand.
Asymptotic Analysis thus provides mathematicians with a concentrated source of newly acquired information which they may need in the analysis of asymptotic problems.

Abstract: We study a generalized Ginzburg–Landau equation that models a sample formed of a superconducting/normal junction and which is not submitted to an applied magnetic field. We prove the existence of a unique positive (and bounded) solution of this equation. In the particular case when the domain is the entire plane, we determine the explicit expression of the solution (and we find that it satisfies a Robin (de Gennes) boundary condition on the boundary of the superconducting side). Using the result of the entire plane, we determine for the case of general domains, the asymptotic behavior of the solution for large …values of the Ginzburg–Landau parameter. The main tools are Hopf's Lemma, the Strong Maximum Principle, elliptic estimates and Agmon type estimates. Show more

Abstract: An asymptotic formula is derived for the sum In (1|q):=Σn k=0 fn (k)qgn (k) as n→∞, where fn (k) and gn (k) are functions defined on nonnegative integers and 0<q<1. This formula is a discrete analogue of Laplace's approximation for integrals. Corresponding results are also provided for the more general sum In (z|q):=Σn k=0 fn (k)qgn (k) zk which is typically an nth order polynomial. The results obtained are then used to give asymptotic formulas for the q−1 -Hermite polynomial hn (x|q), the Stieltjes–Wigert polynomial Sn (x; q) and the q-Laguerre polynomial Lα n …(x; q).

Abstract: In this paper, we consider the boundary value problem for thin piezoelectric shells with variable thickness subjected only to mechanical body force and we show that, as the thickness of the shell goes to zero, the solution of the three-dimensional equations converge to the solution of two-dimensional problem.

Abstract: The long time behavior of the solutions of a general reaction–diffusion system (RDS) that covers many examples, such as the RDS with polynomial nonlinearity and Ginzburg–Landau equation, is discussed. First, the existence of a compact uniform attractor 𝒜0 in H is proved without additional assumptions on the interaction functions. Then the structure of the attractor is obtained for a certain class of interaction functions without strong translation compactness. For instance, the interaction functions are not required to be uniformly continuous. Moreover, an interesting problem arises naturally from this paper.

Abstract: The Stokes problem is studied in the domain Ω⊂R3 coinciding outside the ball BR ={x∈R3 : |x|<R} with the parabolically growing layer Ω={x∈R3 : x′ =(x1 , x2 )∈R2 , |x3 |<h(x′ )}, where h(x′ ) is a smooth function, h(x′ )≥h0 >0 ∀x′ ∈R2 and h(x′ )=|x′ |β ≡rβ , β∈(0, 1), for r>1. Coercive estimates of the solution to the Stokes problem are proved in a scale of weighted function spaces with the norm determined by a stepwise anisotropic distribution of weight factors.

Abstract: We consider the spatially homogeneous Boltzmann equation for regularized soft potentials and Grad's angular cutoff. We prove that uniform (in time) bounds in L1 ((1+|v|s ) dv) and Hk norms, s, k≥0 hold for its solution. The proof is based on the mixture of estimates of polynomial growth in time of those norms together with the quantitative results of relaxation to equilibrium in L1 obtained by the so-called “entropy–entropy production” method in the context of dissipative systems with slowly growing a priori bounds (G. Toscani and C. Villani, J. Statist. Phys. 98 (2000), 1279–1309).
