Blow-up,quenching, aggregation and collapse in a chemotaxis model with reproduction term

In this paper,we consider the following chemotaxis model with ratio-dependent logistic reaction term u/t=D▽(▽u-u▽ω/ω)+u(α-bu/ω),(x,t)∈QT,ω/t=βu-δω,(x,t)∈QT,u▽㏑(u/w)·=0,x ∈Ω,0tT,u(x,0)=u0(x)0,x ∈,w(x,0)=w0(x)0,x ∈,It is shown that the solution to the problem exists globally if b+β≥0 and will blow up or quench if b+β0 by means of function transformation and comparison method.Various asymptotic behavior related to different coefficients and initial data is also discussed.     

A logarithmically improved regularity criterion for the supercritical quasi-geostrophic equations in Besov space

In this paper, we consider the logarithmically improved regularity criterion for the supercritical quasi-geostrophic equation in Besov space \(\dot B_{\infty ,\infty }^{ - r}\left( {{\mathbb{R}^2}} \right)\). The result shows that if θ is a weak solutions satisfies

$$\int_0^T {\frac{{\left\| {\nabla \theta ( \cdot ,s)} \right\|_{\dot B_{\infty ,\infty }^{ - r} }^{\tfrac{\alpha }{{\alpha - r}}} }}{{1 + \ln \left( {e + \left\| {\nabla ^ \bot \theta ( \cdot ,s)} \right\|_{L^{\tfrac{2}{r}} } } \right)!}}ds < \infty for some 0 < r < \alpha and 0 < \alpha < 1,}$$

then θ is regular at t = T. In view of the embedding \({L^{\frac{2}{r}}} \subset M_{\frac{2}{r}}^p \subset \dot B_{\infty ,\infty }^{ - r}\) with \(2 \leqslant p < \frac{2}{r}\) and 0 ≤ r < 1, we see that our result extends the results due to [20] and [31].

     

A Pohozaev Identity for the Fractional Hnon System

In this paper, we study the Pohozaev identity associated with a Henon-Lane-Emden system involving the fractional Laplacian:■in a star-shaped and bounded domain Ω for s ∈(0,1). As an application of our identity, we deduce the nonexistence of positive solutions in the critical and supercritical cases.

An existence principle for solutions to a singular boundary-value problems

The singular boundary-value problem

$ \left\{ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {{u^{\prime\prime}} + g\left( {t,u,{u^{\prime}}} \right) = 0\quad {\text{for}}\quad t \in \left( {0,1} \right),} \hfill \\ {u(0) = u(1) = 0} \hfill \\ \end{array} } \right. $

is studied. The singularity may appear at u?=?0, and the function g may change sign. An existence theorem for solutions to the above boundary-value problem is proposed, and it is proved via the method of upper and lower solutions.

     

Generalized n-Laplacian: Semilinear Neumann problem with the critical growth

Let Ω ? ? ⁿ , n ? 2, be a bounded connected domain of the class C ^1,θ for some θ ∈ (0, 1]. Applying the generalized Moser-Trudinger inequality without boundary condition, the Mountain Pass Theorem and the Ekeland Variational Principle, we prove the existence and multiplicity of nontrivial weak solutions to the problem $$\begin{gathered} u \in W^1 L^\Phi \left( \Omega \right), - div\left( {\Phi '\left( {\left| {\nabla u} \right|} \right)\frac{{\nabla u}} {{\left| {\nabla u} \right|}}} \right) + V\left( x \right)\Phi '\left( {\left| u \right|} \right)\frac{u} {{\left| u \right|}} = f\left( {x,u} \right) + \mu h\left( x \right) in \Omega , \hfill \\ \frac{{\partial u}} {{\partial n}} = 0 on \partial \Omega , \hfill \\ \end{gathered}$$ where Φ is a Young function such that the space W ¹ L ^Φ(Ω) is embedded into exponential or multiple exponential Orlicz space, the nonlinearity f(x, t) has the corresponding critical growth, V (x) is a continuous potential, h ∈ (L ^Φ(Ω))* is a nontrivial continuous function, µ ? 0 is a small parameter and n denotes the outward unit normal to ?Ω.     

Universal inequalities for eigenvalues of a system of elliptic equations of the drifting Laplacian

Let \(\Omega \) be a bounded domain in a n-dimensional Euclidean space \(\mathbb {R}^{n}\). We study eigenvalues of an eigenvalue problem of a system of elliptic equations of the drifting Laplacian

$$\begin{aligned} \left\{ \begin{array}{ll} \mathbb {L_{\phi }}\mathbf{{u}} + \alpha (\nabla (\mathrm {div}{} \mathbf{{u}}) - \nabla \phi \mathrm {div}{} \mathbf{{u}})= -\bar{\sigma }\mathbf{{u}}, &{} \hbox {in} \,\Omega ; \\ \mathbf{{u}}|_{\,\partial \Omega }=0. \end{array} \right. \end{aligned}$$

Estimates for eigenvalues of the above eigenvalue problem are obtained. Furthermore, a universal inequality for lower order eigenvalues of the problem is also derived. Finally, we prove an universal inequality type Ashbaugh and Benguria for the drifting Laplacian on Riemannian manifold immersed in an unit sphere or a projective space.

     

Existence of Nonnegative Solutions for a Class of Systems Involving Fractional (p,q)-Laplacian Operators

The authors study the following Dirichlet problem of a system involving fractional (p, q)-Laplacian operators:

$$\left\{ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {\left( { - \Delta } \right)_p^su = \lambda a\left( x \right){{\left| u \right|}^{p - 2}}u + \lambda b\left( x \right){{\left| u \right|}^{\alpha - 2}}{{\left| v \right|}^\beta }u + \frac{{\mu \left( x \right)}}{{\alpha \delta }}{{\left| u \right|}^{\gamma - 2}}{{\left| v \right|}^\delta }uin\Omega ,} \\ {\left( { - \Delta } \right)_q^sv = \lambda c\left( x \right){{\left| v \right|}^{q - 2}}v + \lambda b\left( x \right){{\left| u \right|}^\alpha }{{\left| v \right|}^{\beta - 2}}v + \frac{{\mu \left( x \right)}}{{\beta \gamma }}{{\left| u \right|}^\gamma }{{\left| v \right|}^{\delta - 2}}vin\Omega ,} \\ {u = v = 0on{\mathbb{R}^N}\backslash \Omega ,} \end{array}} \right.$$

where λ > 0 is a real parameter, Ω is a bounded domain in R ^N , with boundary ?Ω Lipschitz continuous, s ∈ (0, 1), 1 < p ≤ q < ∞, sq < N, while (?Δ) _p ^s u is the fractional p-Laplacian operator of u and, similarly, (?Δ) _q ^s v is the fractional q-Laplacian operator of v. Since possibly p ≠ q, the classical definitions of the Nehari manifold for systems and of the Fibering mapping are not suitable. In this paper, the authors modify these definitions to solve the Dirichlet problem above. Then, by virtue of the properties of the first eigenvalue λ₁ for a related system, they prove that there exists a positive solution for the problem when λ < λ₁ by the modified definitions. Moreover, the authors obtain the bifurcation property when λ → λ₁^-. Finally, thanks to the Picone identity, a nonexistence result is also obtained when λ ≥ λ₁.

     

On sums of binomial coefficients involving Catalan and Delannoy numbers modulo $$p^2$$

In this paper, we prove some congruences conjectured by Z.-W. Sun: For any prime \(p>3\), we determine

$$\begin{aligned} \sum \limits _{k = 0}^{p - 1} {\frac{{{C_k}C_k^{(2)}}}{{{{27}^k}}}} \quad {\text { and }}\quad \sum \limits _{k = 1}^{p - 1} {\frac{{\left( {\begin{array}{l} {2k} \\ {k - 1} \\ \end{array}} \right) \left( { \begin{array}{l} {3k} \\ {k - 1} \\ \end{array} } \right) }}{{{{27}^k}}}} \end{aligned}$$

modulo \(p^2\), where \(C_k=\frac{1}{k+1}\left( {\begin{array}{c}2k\\ k\end{array}}\right) \) is the k-th Catalan number and \(C_k^{(2)}=\frac{1}{2k+1}\left( {\begin{array}{c}3k\\ k\end{array}}\right) \) is the second-order Catalan numbers of the first kind. And we prove that

$$\begin{aligned} \sum _{k=1}^{p-1}\frac{D_k}{k}\equiv -q_p(2)+pq_p(2)^2\pmod {p^2}, \end{aligned}$$

where \(D_n=\sum _{k=0}^{n}\left( {\begin{array}{c}n\\ k\end{array}}\right) \left( {\begin{array}{c}n+k\\ k\end{array}}\right) \) is the n-th Delannoy number and \(q_p(2)=(2^{{p-1}}-1)/p\) is the Fermat quotient.

     

Energy Scattering of a Generalized Davey–Stewartson System in Three Dimension

In this paper, we study the global scattering result of the solution for the generalized Davey–Stewartson system(i?_tu + Δu = |u|~2u + uv_(x1),(t, x) ∈ R × R~3,-Δv =(|u|~2)_(x1).)The main difficulties are the failure of the interaction Morawetz estimate and the asymmetrical structure of nonlinearity(in particular, the nonlinearity is non-local). To compensate, we utilize the strategy derived from concentration-compactness idea, which was first introduced by Kenig and Merle [Invent.Math., 166, 645–675(2006)].     

Classification of certain qualitative properties of solutions for the quasilinear parabolic equations

In this paper, we mainly consider the initial boundary problem for a quasilinear parabolic equation u_t-div(|?u|~(p-2)?u) =-|u|~(β-1) u + α|u|~(q-2 )u,where p 1, β 0, q≥1 and α 0. By using Gagliardo-Nirenberg type inequality, the energy method and comparison principle, the phenomena of blowup and extinction are classified completely in the different ranges of reaction exponents.     

Forward dynamical problem for the Timoshenko beam

The initial boundary value problem

Stability analysis of abstract systems of Timoshenko type

We consider an abstract system of Timoshenko type

$$\begin{aligned} \left\{ {\begin{array}{l} \rho_1{{\ddot \varphi}} + a A^{\frac12}(A^{\frac12}\varphi + \psi) =0\\\rho_2{{\ddot \psi}} + b A \psi + a (A^{\frac12}\varphi + \psi) -\delta A^\gamma {\theta} = 0\\\rho_3{{\dot \theta}} + c A\theta + \delta A^\gamma {{\dot \psi}} =0 \end{array}} \right. \end{aligned}$$

where the operator \({A}\) is strictly positive selfadjoint. For any fixed \({\gamma \in {\mathbb{R}}}\), the stability properties of the related solution semigroup \({S(t)}\) are discussed. In particular, a general technique is introduced in order to prove the lack of exponential decay of \({S(t)}\) when the spectrum of the leading operator \({A}\) does not consist of eigenvalues only.

     

On some results of Hua in short intervals

In this note, we prove some results of Hua in short intervals. For example, each sufficiently large integer N satisfying some congruence conditions can be written as

$ \left\{ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {N = p_1^2 + p_2^2 + p_3^2 + p_4^2 + {p^k}}, \hfill \\ {\left| {{p_j} - \sqrt {N/5} } \right| \leqslant U,\left| {p - {{\left( {N/5} \right)}^{\tfrac{1}{k}}}} \right|\leqslant UN - \tfrac{1}{2} + \tfrac{1}{k},j = 1,2,3,4,} \hfill \\ \end{array} } \right. $

where \( U = N\tfrac{1}{2} - \eta + \varepsilon \) with \( \eta = \frac{2}{{\kappa \left( {K + 1} \right)\left( {{K^2} + 2} \right)}} \) and \( K = {2^{k - 1}},k\geqslant 3. \)

     

Positive solutions for a boundary-value problem with Riemann–Liouville fractional derivative*

In this work, we are mainly concerned with the existence of positive solutions for the fractional boundary-value problem $$ \left\{ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {D_{0+}^{\alpha }D_{0+}^{\alpha }u=f\left( {t,u,{u}^{\prime},-D_{0+}^{\alpha }u} \right),\quad t\in \left[ {0,1} \right],} \hfill \\ {u(0)={u}^{\prime}(0)={u}^{\prime}(1)=D_{0+}^{\alpha }u(0)=D_{0+}^{{\alpha +1}}u(0)=D_{0+}^{{\alpha +1}}u(1)=0.} \hfill \\ \end{array}} \right. $$ Here ?? ?? (2, 3] is a real number, $ D_{0+}^{\alpha } $ is the standard Riemann?CLiouville fractional derivative of order ??. By virtue of some inequalities associated with the fractional Green function for the above problem, without the assumption of the nonnegativity of f, we utilize the Krasnoselskii?CZabreiko fixed-point theorem to establish our main results. The interesting point lies in the fact that the nonlinear term is allowed to depend on u, u??, and $ -D_{0+}^{\alpha } $ .     

Some remarks on Wente’s inequality and the Lorentz-Sobolev space

In this note we consider Wente's type inequality on the Lorentz-Sobolev space.If▽f∈L~p1,q1(R~n),G ∈ L~(p2,q2)(R~n) and div G≡0 in the sense of distribution where(1/p1)+(1/P2)=(1/q1)+(1/q2)=1,1P1,P2∞,it is known that G·▽f belongs to the Hardy space H~1 and furthermore‖G·▽f‖H~1≤C‖▽f‖L~(p1,q1)(R~2)‖G‖L~(p2,q2)(R~2).Reader can see[9]Section 4.Here we give a new proof of this result.Our proof depends on an estimate of a maximal operator on the Lorentz space which is of some independent interest.Finally,we use this inequality to get a generalisation of Bethuel's inequality.     

A note on skew characters of symmetric groups

In this paper we establish the following estimate:

$$\omega \left( {\left\{ {x \in {\mathbb{R}^n}:\left| {\left[ {b,T} \right]f\left( x \right)} \right| > \lambda } \right\}} \right) \leqslant \frac{{{c_T}}}{{{\varepsilon ^2}}}\int_{{\mathbb{R}^n}} {\Phi \left( {{{\left\| b \right\|}_{BMO}}\frac{{\left| {f\left( x \right)} \right|}}{\lambda }} \right){M_{L{{\left( {\log L} \right)}^{1 + \varepsilon }}}}} \omega \left( x \right)dx$$

where ω ≥ 0, 0 < ε < 1 and Φ(t) = t(1 + log⁺(t)). This inequality relies upon the following sharp L ^p estimate:

$${\left\| {\left[ {b,T} \right]f} \right\|_{{L^p}\left( \omega \right)}} \leqslant {c_T}{\left( {p'} \right)^2}{p^2}{\left( {\frac{{p - 1}}{\delta }} \right)^{\frac{1}{{p'}}}}{\left\| b \right\|_{BMO}}{\left\| f \right\|_{{L^p}\left( {{M_{L{{\left( {{{\log }_L}} \right)}^{2p - 1 + {\delta ^\omega }}}}}} \right)}}$$

where 1 < p < ∞, ω ≥ 0 and 0 < δ < 1. As a consequence we recover the following estimate essentially contained in [18]:

$$\omega \left( {\left\{ {x \in {\mathbb{R}^n}:\left| {\left[ {b,T} \right]f\left( x \right)} \right| > \lambda } \right\}} \right) \leqslant {c_T}{\left[ \omega \right]_{{A_\infty }}}{\left( {1 + {{\log }^ + }{{\left[ \omega \right]}_{{A_\infty }}}} \right)^2}\int_{{\mathbb{R}^n}} {\Phi \left( {{{\left\| b \right\|}_{BMO}}\frac{{\left| {f\left( x \right)} \right|}}{\lambda }} \right)M} \omega \left( x \right)dx.$$

We also obtain the analogue estimates for symbol-multilinear commutators for a wider class of symbols.

     

A positive solution of a nonlinear Schrdinger system with nonconstant potentials

In this paper, we study the existence of positive solutions to the following Schr¨odinger system:{-?u + V_1(x)u = μ_1(x)u~3+ β(x)v~2u, x ∈R~N,-?v + V_2(x)v = μ_2(x)v~3+ β(x)u~2v, x ∈R~N,u, v ∈H~1(R~N),where N = 1, 2, 3; V_1(x) and V_2(x) are positive and continuous, but may not be well-shaped; and μ_1(x), μ_2(x)and β(x) are continuous, but may not be positive or anti-well-shaped. We prove that the system has a positive solution when the coefficients Vi(x), μ_i(x)(i = 1, 2) and β(x) satisfy some additional conditions.     

Two nontrivial solutions of boundary-value problems for semilinear Δ<Subscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">γ</Emphasis></Subscript>-differential equations

In this paper, we study the existence of multiple solutions for the boundary-value problem

$${\Delta _\gamma }u + f\left( {x,u} \right) = 0in\Omega ,u = 0on\partial \Omega ,$$

where Ω is a bounded domain with smooth boundary in R ^N (N ≥ 2) and Δ _γ is the subelliptic operator of the type

$${\Delta _\gamma }u = \sum\limits_{j = 1}^N {{\partial _{{x_j}}}\left( {\gamma _j^2{\partial _{{x_j}}}u} \right)} ,{\partial _{{x_j}}}u = \frac{{\partial u}}{{\partial {x_j}}},\gamma = \left( {{\gamma _1},{\gamma _2}, \ldots ,{\gamma _N}} \right).$$

We use the three critical point theorem.

     

Impulsive fractional boundary value problem with <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-Laplace operator

In the present paper, we deal with the existence and multiplicity of solutions for the following impulsive fractional boundary value problem

$$\begin{aligned} {_{t}}D_{T}^{\alpha }\left( \left| {_{0}}D_{t}^{\alpha }u(t)\right| ^{p-2}{_{0}}D_{t}^{\alpha }u(t)\right) + a(t)|u(t)|^{p-2}u(t)= & {} f(t,u(t)),\;\;t\ne t_j,\;\;\hbox {a.e.}\;\;t\in [0,T],\\ \Delta \left( {_{t}}I_{T}^{1-\alpha }\left( \left| {_{0}}D_{t}^{\alpha }u(t_j)\right| ^{p-2}{_{0}}D_{t}^{\alpha }u(t_j)\right) \right)= & {} I_j(u(t_j))\;\;j=1,2,\ldots ,n,\\ u(0)= & {} u(T) = 0. \end{aligned}$$

where \(\alpha \in (1/p, 1]\), \(1<p<\infty \), \(0 = t_0<t_1< t_2< \cdots< t_n < t_{n+1} = T\), \(f:[0,T]\times \mathbb {R} \rightarrow \mathbb {R}\) and \(I_j : \mathbb {R} \rightarrow \mathbb {R}\), \(j = 1, \ldots , n\), are continuous functions, \(a\in C[0,T]\) and

$$\begin{aligned} \Delta \left( {_{t}}I_{T}^{1-\alpha }\left( \left| {_{0}}D_{t}^{\alpha }u(t_j)\right| ^{p-2}{_{0}}D_{t}^{\alpha }u(t_j)\right) \right)= & {} {_{t}}I_{T}^{1-\alpha }\left( \left| {_{0}}D_{t}^{\alpha }u\left( t_j^+\right) \right| ^{p-2}{_{0}}D_{t}^{\alpha }u\left( t_j^+\right) \right) \\&- {_{t}}I_{T}^{1-\alpha }\left( \left| {_{0}}D_{t}^{\alpha }u(t_j^-)\right| ^{p-2}{_{0}}D_{t}^{\alpha }u\left( t_j^-\right) \right) ,\\ {_{t}}I_{T}^{1-\alpha }\left( \left| {_{0}}D_{t}^{\alpha }u\left( t_j^+\right) \right| ^{p-2}{_{0}}D_{t}^{\alpha }u\left( t_j^+\right) \right)= & {} \lim _{t \rightarrow t_j^+} {_{t}}I_{T}^{1-\alpha }\left( \left| {_{0}}D_{t}^{\alpha }u(t)\right| ^{p-2}{_{0}}D_{t}^{\alpha }u(t)\right) ,\\ {_{t}}I_{T}^{1-\alpha }\left( \left| {_{0}}D_{t}^{\alpha }u(t_j^-)\right| ^{p-2}{_{0}}D_{t}^{\alpha }u(t_j^-)\right)= & {} \lim _{t\rightarrow t_j^-}{_{t}}I_{T}^{1-\alpha }\left( \left| {_{0}}D_{t}^{\alpha }u(t)\right| ^{p-2}{_{0}}D_{t}^{\alpha }u(t)\right) . \end{aligned}$$

By using variational methods and critical point theory, we give some criteria to guarantee that the above-mentioned impulsive problems have at least one weak solution and a sequences of weak solutions.
