Nonlinear frequency shift

I came across the following equation: $\frac{dz}{dt}+iz=iεxy^{2}$, t is a dimensionless time, $z=x+\frac{idx}{dt}$, $y=\frac{dx}{dt}$. I would like to find a nonlinear frequency shift. I tried to decompose the right part by composing only resonant…

proving the stability of the equilibrium point with a Lyapunov function

The below nonlinear system is considered as a pendulum with a nonlinear damping coefficient: $$ \ddot y+(a+b\cos(y))\dot y+c\sin(y)=0, \qquad a\geq b\geq 0 $$ Use the energy of the whole system as a Lyapunov function to check the stability of the…

One-phase association fit / rate constant value comparison

Currently, I am writing my thesis (in molecular biology - not mathematics), and I am puzzled over the results. I measured an increase in a signal and did a one-phase association fit in GraphPad. Now, I have four curves, and they look as we would…

Solving a super-quadric equation

I have to solve the following scalar non-linear equation. \begin{equation*} \xi^{\frac{2}{\varepsilon}}+(\xi-k)^{\frac{2}{\varepsilon}}=1 \end{equation*} with respect to $\xi\geq 0$. Here $\varepsilon>0$ and $k\in[0,1]$ are given parameters. So far…

A question about homeomorphisms of Banach space

Let $X$ be an Banach space and let $g:X \to X$ be a map such that: 1) $g$ is non linear and compact (i.e. if $B$ is a bounded subset of $X$ then $g(B)$ is a precompact subset of $X$) 2) the function $f:=id+g : X \to X$, is a global homeomorphism…

Growth conditions for elliptic quasilinear equations in divergence form

Let us consider the following elliptic quasilinear problem with mixed boundary conditions $$ \left.\begin{alignedat}{2}-\textrm{div}[a(x,u,\nabla u)]+c(x,u,\nabla u) & =g & & \textrm{in}\,\Omega\\ \nu\cdot a(x,u,\nabla u)+b(x,u) & =h & &…

Approach to solving underdetermined nonlinear system of equations

I've gotten into a problem I haven't really worked with before in my numerics classes. I have a system of four nonlinear equations with six parameters. Newtons method, Boydens method etc. all include the inverse of the jacobian, but if the system…

Want least squares estimates of nonlinear model and its variances.

The problems is Suppose that E(Y_i|X)=$\beta_0+\beta_1\sin(2 \pi \theta_1 i/n)+\beta_2\cos(2\pi\theta_2i/n)$, i=1,...n, where positive integers $\theta_1$ and $\theta_2 $ are given. I want to find least squares estimates of…

How do I solve this nonlinear equation using lambert w function?

I have been trying to solve this nonlinear equation for sometime now to no avail. I have tried Mathematica and matlab as well. But I believe that a solution exist in terms of x (probably using the Lambert W function). This is the equation…
