Abstract:
The form P(ξ)=∑|p|=2map(2mp)ξp of order 2m>0, which is a function of the n variables ξ1,…,ξn, where p=(p1,…,pn), |p|=p1+⋯+pn, ξp=ξp11⋯ξpnn and (2mp)=(2m)!p1!⋯pn!, is called strongly convex if the quadratic form
∑|m|=|n|=mam+nXmXn
(in a space of dimension equal to the number of the multi-indices m with |m|=m) is positive definite. All even-order differentials of a strongly convex form are positive definite forms.
The paper considers the parabolic equation ∂u∂t+P(1i∂∂x)u=0, with a characteristic form P(ξ) which is strongly convex, and the asymptotic behavior of its Green's function for t→+0 is derived. It is an unexpected property that this asymptotic behavior is dependent not on all saddle points of the corresponding integral with ReP<0, but only on some of these. (This effect has not been observed for the previously known cases, with n=1 or m=1.)
The asymptotic behavior of the Green's function (for λ→+∞) is derived also for the corresponding elliptic equation P(1i∂∂x)u+λu=0. It is suggested that analogous results hold for all convex forms P(ξ), i.e. all forms having a positive definite second differential.
