在报告中，我们考虑GMRES方法，一类广泛熟知和使用并具有代表性的非对称的Krylov子空间方法。这种方法在每一迭代步由通过Arnoldi方法构造对应的Krylov子空间的一组基和随后求解变换的海森伯格最小二乘问题两部分组分。在精确的运算中，Arnoldi向量是正交的。然而，在有限精度运算中，正交性将会丢失，这可能潜在的影响收敛率和计算近似解的最终实现精度……

我们考虑线性系统序列的求解，其中 是一般的非奇异稀疏矩阵，而 是对应的右边项。这种序列在许多应用中出现，比如计算流体动力学，结构力学，数值优化，以及求解非对称正定方程问题，例如，非线性方程 对于 ，由牛顿或Broyden型方法求解导出序列

We survey the results about exact multiplicity of positive solutions of a semilinear elliptic equation with zero Dirichlet boundary condition, and the domain is the unit ball or the whole space of n-dimensional space. It is well known that if the nonlinearity is smooth, then any positive solution to the equation is radially symmetric, and the solution set consists of curves. There are numerous work on the positive radially symmetric solutions of the equation in the last two decades. I will describe a unified approach by Tiancheng Ouyang and myself (and also Philip Korman and Yi Li) which determines the exact multiplicity of solutions and classifies the global bifurcation diagrams of the equation according to the convexity conditions on the nonlinearities. Related recent results will also be discussed.

The International Workshop on Nonlinear Elliptic and Parabolic Partial Differential Equations is scheduled to be held on 24-25 July, 2010, at Tongji University, Shanghai, China. The workshop aims to discuss research results and trends in elliptic and parabolic partial differential equations and related topics. All teachers and students are welcome.Scientific Committee:Zihua Chen, Tongji Univers...

Predator-prey interaction is a basic interspecies relation for ecological and social models. We review some recent results on global bifurcation of limit cycles, steady states in general predator-prey models, some with spatial structure. These results help to explain the rich spatial- temporal patterns which the system possesses.

This presentation includes two parts. The first part considers the problem of stability of linear time-delay systems. Firstly, a delay decomposition approach is proposed to deal with the problem. The idea of the approach is that the delay interval is uniformly divided into N segments with N a positive integer, and a proper Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional is chosen with different weighted matrices corresponding to different segments in the Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional. Secondly, based on the delay decomposition approach, some new delay-dependent stability criteria for linear time-delay systems are derived. These criteria are much less conservative and include some existing results as their special cases.
