General decay and blow-up of solutions for a viscoelastic equation with nonlinear boundary damping-source interactions

In this paper, a viscoelastic equation with nonlinear boundary damping and source terms of the form $$\begin{array}{llll}u_{tt}(t)-\Delta u(t)+\displaystyle\int\limits_{0}^{t}g(t-s)\Delta u(s){\rm d}s=a\left\vert u\right\vert^{p-1}u,\quad{\rm in}\,\Omega\times(0,\infty), \\ \qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad u=0,\,{\rm on}\,\Gamma_{0} \times(0,\infty),\\ \dfrac{\partial u}{\partial\nu}-\displaystyle\int\limits_{0}^{t}g(t-s)\frac{\partial}{\partial\nu}u(s){\rm d}s+h(u_{t})=b\left\vert u\right\vert ^{k-1}u,\quad{\rm on} \ \Gamma_{1} \times(0,\infty) \\ \qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad u(0)=u^{0},u_{t}(0)=u^{1},\quad x\in\Omega, \end{array}$$ is considered in a bounded domain ??. Under appropriate assumptions imposed on the source and the damping, we establish both existence of solutions and uniform decay rate of the solution energy in terms of the behavior of the nonlinear feedback and the relaxation function g, without setting any restrictive growth assumptions on the damping at the origin and weakening the usual assumptions on the relaxation function g. Moreover, for certain initial data in the unstable set, the finite time blow-up phenomenon is exhibited.     

Strong Regularizing Effect of a Gradient Term in the Heat Equation with a Weight

We deal with the following parabolic problem, $$(P)\left\{\begin{array}{lll} u_t - \Delta{u} + |\nabla{u}|^q \quad=\quad \lambda{g}(x)u + f(x, t),\quad u > 0 \; {\rm in} \; \Omega \; \times \; (0, T),\\ \qquad\quad\quad\; u(x, t) \quad=\quad 0 \quad{\rm on}\; {\partial}{\Omega}\; \times ; (0, T),\\ \qquad\quad\quad\; u(x, 0) \quad=\quad u_{0}(x), \quad x \in {\Omega},\end{array}\right.$$ where is a bounded regular domain or ${\Omega = \mathbb{R}^N}$ , ${1 < q \leq 2, \lambda > 0\; {\rm and}\; f \geq 0, u_{0} \geq 0}$ are in a suitable class of functions. We give assumptions on g with respect to q for which for all λ >  0 and all ${f \in L^1(\Omega_T ), f \geq 0}$ , problem (P) has a positive solution. Under some additional conditions on the data, the Cauchy problem and the asymptotic behavior of the solution are also considered.     

Linear Approximation and Asymptotic Expansion of Solutions in Many Small Parameters for a Nonlinear Kirchhoff Wave Equation with Mixed Nonhomogeneous Conditions

In this paper, we consider the following nonlinear Kirchhoff wave equation

$\left\{\begin{array}{l}u_{tt}-\frac{\partial }{\partial x}(\mu (u,\Vert u_{x}\Vert ^{2})u_{x})=f(x,t,u,u_{x},u_{t}),\quad 0

(1)

where \(\widetilde{u}_{0}\), \(\widetilde{u}_{1}\), μ, f, g are given functions and \(\Vert u_{x}\Vert ^{2}=\int_{0}^{1}u_{x}^{2}(x,t)dx.\) To the problem (1), we associate a linear recursive scheme for which the existence of a local and unique weak solution is proved by applying the Faedo–Galerkin method and the weak compact method. In particular, motivated by the asymptotic expansion of a weak solution in only one, two or three small parameters in the researches before now, an asymptotic expansion of a weak solution in many small parameters appeared on both sides of (1)₁ is studied.

我们考虑了一类原型为$$\begin{cases}u_t-\Delta u=\overrightarrow{b}(x,t)\cdot\nabla u+\gamma|\nabla u|^2-\text{div}{\overrightarrow{F}(x,t)}+f(x,t), &(x,t)\in \Omega_T,\\ u(x,t)=0,&(x,t)\in\Gamma_T,\\ u(x,0)=u_0(x), &x\in\Omega,\end{cases}$$的一类抛物方程. 其中, 函数$|\overrightarrow{b}(x,t)|^2,|\overrightarrow{F}(x,t)|^2,f(x,t)$位于空间$L^r{(0,T;L^q(\Omega))}$, $\gamma$是一个正常数. 在源项和梯度的系数项在空间$L^r{(0,T;L^q(\Omega))}$具有合适的可积条件下, 本文的目的在于证明先验的$L^\infty$估计以及方程存在有界解. 主要的方法包括通过正则化建立扰动问题, 用非线性的检验函数实现Stampacchia迭代技术以及极限过程中的紧性论断.

Existence of solutions for a degenerate auasilinear elliptic system in bounded domain

Using variational methods, we study the existence of weak solutions forthe degenerate quasilinear elliptic system$$\left\{\begin{array}{ll}- \mathrm{div}\Big(h_1(x)|\nabla u|^{p-2}\nabla u\Big) = F_{u}(x,u,v) &\text{ in } \Omega,\\-\mathrm{div}\Big(h_2(x)|\nabla v|^{q-2}\nabla v\Big) = F_{v}(x,u,v) &\text{ in } \Omega,\\u=v=0 & \textrm{ on } \partial\Omega,\end{array}\right.$$where $\Omega\subset \mathbb R^N$ is a smooth bounded domain, $\nabla F= (F_u,F_v)$ stands for the gradient of $C^1$-function $F:\Omega\times\mathbb R^2 \to \mathbb R$, the weights $h_i$, $i=1,2$ are allowed to vanish somewhere,the primitive $F(x,u,v)$ is intimately related to the first eigenvalue of acorresponding quasilinear system.

Existence and symmetry results for competing variational systems

In this paper we consider a class of gradient systems of type $$\begin{array}{ll} -c_{i} \Delta u_{i} + V_{i}(x)u_{i} = P_{u_i}(u),\qquad u_{1}, \ldots, u_{k} >\; 0\; \text{in}\; \Omega,\\ \quad u_{1} = \cdots = u_{k} = 0 \text{ on } \partial \Omega, \end{array}$$ in a bounded domain ${\Omega \subseteq \mathbb{R}^N}$ . Under suitable assumptions on V _i and P, we prove the existence of ground-state solutions for this problem. Moreover, for k = 2, assuming that the domain Ω and the potentials V _i are radially symmetric, we prove that the ground state solutions are foliated Schwarz symmetric with respect to antipodal points. We provide several examples for our abstract framework.

A global approach to fully nonlinear parabolic problems

We consider the general initial-boundary value problem

(1)        
(2)        
(3)        
where is a bounded open set in with sufficiently smooth boundary.  The problem (1)-(3) is first reduced to the analogous problem in the space with zero initial condition and

The resulting problem is then reduced to the problem where the operator satisfies Condition  This reduction is based on a priori estimates which are developed herein for linear parabolic operators with coefficients in Sobolev spaces.  The local and global solvability of the operator equation are achieved via topological methods developed by I. V. Skrypnik. Further applications are also given involving relevant coercive problems, as well as Galerkin approximations.

     

Solvability of a finite or infinite system of discontinuous quasimonotone differential equations

This paper proves the existence of solutions to the initial value problem

where may be discontinuous but is assumed to satisfy conditions of superposition-measurability, quasimonotonicity, quasisemicontinuity, and integrability. The set can be arbitrarily large (finite or infinite); our theorem is new even for . The proof is based partly on measure-theoretic techniques used in one dimension under slightly stronger hypotheses by Rzymowski and Walachowski. Further generalizations are mentioned at the end of the paper.

A Nonhomogeneous Boundary Value Problem for the Boussinesq Equation on a Bounded Domain

In this paper, we study the well-posedness of an initial-boundary-value problem (IBVP) for the Boussinesq equation on a bounded domain,\begin{cases} &u_{tt}-u_{xx}+(u^2)_{xx}+u_{xxxx}=0,\quad x\in (0,1), \;\;t>0,\\ &u(x,0)=\varphi(x),\;\;\; u_t(x,0)=ψ(x),\\ &u(0,t)=h_1(t),\;\;\;u(1,t)=h_2(t),\;\;\;u_{xx}(0,t)=h_3(t),\;\;\;u_{xx}(1,t)=h_4(t).\\ \end{cases} It is shown that the IBVP is locally well-posed in the space $H^s (0,1)$ for any $s\geq 0$ with the initial data $\varphi,$ $\psi$ lie in $H^s(0,1)$ and $ H^{s-2}(0,1)$, respectively, and the naturally compatible boundary data $h_1,$ $h_2$ in the space $H_{loc}^{(s+1)/2}(\mathbb{R}^+)$, and $h_3 $, $h_4$ in the the space of $H_{loc}^{(s-1)/2}(\mathbb{R}^+)$ with optimal regularity.
