The implication of Recr1 in the context of direct simulation of Navier-Stokes equation is presented here for LDC, with or without explicit excitation inside the LDC. This is aided further by performing detailed enstrophy-based proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) of the flow field. The flow has been computed by an accurate numerical method for two different uniform grids. POD of results of these two grids help us understand the receptivity aspects of the flow field, which give rise to the computed bifurcation sequences by understanding the similarity and differences of these two sets of computations. We show that POD modes help one understand the primary and secondary instabilities noted during the bifurcation sequences.

One of the difficulties is to propose methods of approximation which satisfy in a stable and accurate way the eigenvalues equations, the constraint one and the boundary conditions. Using any non-stable method leads to the presence of non-physical eigenvalues: a multiple zero one called spurious modes and non-zero one called pollution modes. One way to eliminate these two families is to favor the constraint equations by satisfying it exactly and to verify the equations of the eigenvalues equations in weak ways. To illustrate our contribution in this field we consider in this paper the case of Stokes operator. We describe several methods that produce the correct number of eigenvalues. We numerically prove how these methods are adequate to correctly solve the 2D Stokes eigenvalue problem.

The spreading of farmers is modelled by a nonlinear porous medium type diffusion equation which coincides with the singular limit of another model for the dispersal of farmers as a small parameter tends to zero. From the ecological viewpoint, the nonlinear diffusion takes into account the population density pressure of the farmers on their dispersal. The interaction between farmers and hunter-gatherers is of the Lotka-Volterra prey-predator type. We show the existence and uniqueness of a global in time solution and study its asymptotic behaviour as time tends to infinity.

We focus on three of them: the completion of missing boundary data, the identification of the trajectory of a pointwise source and the recovery of the initial state. In all of these problems, the observations provide over-specified boundary data, commonly called Cauchy boundary conditions. Notice that the third problem is central for the controllability by a boundary control of the temperature. Presumably, they are all severely ill-posed, a relevant indicator on their instabilities, as formalized by G. Wahba. We revisit these issues under a new light and with different mathematical tools to provide detailed and complete proofs for these results. Jacobi Theta functions, complemented with the Jacobi Imaginary Transform, turn out to be a powerful tool to realize our objectives. In particular, based on the Laptev work [Matematicheskie Zametki 16, 741-750 (1974)], we provide a new information about the observation of the initial data problem. It is actually exponentially ill-posed.
