We study the problem of density of polynomials in the de Branges spaces ℋ($E$) of entire functions and obtain conditions (in terms of the distribution of the zeros of the generating function$E$) ensuring that the polynomials belong to the space ℋ($E$) or are dense in this space. We discuss the relation of these results with the recent paper of V. P. Havin and J. Mashreghi on majorants for the shift-coinvariant subspaces. Also, it is shown that the density of polynomials implies the hypercyclicity of translation operators in ℋ($E$).

We consider compact submanifolds of dimension n  2 in Rn+k, with nonzero mean curvature vector everywhere, and such that the full norm of the second fundamental form is bounded by a fixed multiple (depending on n) of the length of the mean curvature vector at every point. We prove that the mean curvature flow deforms such a submanifold to a point in finite time, and that the solution is asymptotic to a shrinking sphere in some (n + 1)- dimensional affine subspace of Rn+k.

This paper is devoted to developing the Il'in-Allen-Southwell (IAS) parameter-uniform difference scheme on uniform meshes for solving strongly coupled systems of singularly perturbed convection-diffusion equations whose solutions may display boundary and/or interior layers, where strong coupling means that the solution components in the system are coupled together mainly through their first derivatives. By decomposing the coefficient matrix of convection term into the Jordan canonical form, we first construct the IAS scheme for 1-D systems and then extend the scheme to 2-D systems by employing an alternating direction technique. The robustness of the developed IAS scheme is illustrated through a series of numerical examples, including the magnetohydrodynamic duct flow problem with a high Hartmann number. Numerical evidence indicates that the IAS scheme is formally second order accurate in the sense that it is second order convergent when the perturbation parameter $\varepsilon$ is not too small and when the $\varepsilon$ is sufficiently small, the scheme is first order convergent in the discrete maximum norm uniformly in $\varepsilon$.
