Life-Span of Classical Solutions to Hyperbolic Geometric Flow in Two Space Variables with Slow Decay Initial Data

In this paper we investigate the life-span of classical solutions to the hyperbolic geometric flow in two space variables with slow decay initial data. By establishing some new estimates on the solutions of linear wave equations in two space variables, we give a lower bound of the life-span of classical solutions to the hyperbolic geometric flow with asymptotic flat initial Riemann surfaces.     

Gaussian distributions and phase space Weyl–Heisenberg frames

Gaussian states are at the heart of quantum mechanics and play an essential role in quantum information processing. In this paper we provide approximation formulas for the expansion of a general Gaussian symbol in terms of elementary Gaussian functions. For this purpose we introduce the notion of a “phase space frame” associated with a Weyl–Heisenberg frame. Our results give explicit formulas for approximating general Gaussian symbols in phase space by phase space shifted standard Gaussians as well as explicit error estimates and the asymptotic behavior of the approximation.

Hamiltonian systems with a stochastic force:nonlinear versus linear,and a girsanov formula

We discuss stochastic perturbations of classical Hamiltonian systems by a white noise force. We prove existence and uniqueness results for the solutions of the equation of motion under general conditions on the classical system, as well as their continuous dependence on the initial conditions. We also prove that the process in phase space is a diffusion with transition probability densities, and Lebesgue measure as c-finite invariant measure. We prove a Girsanov formula relating the solution for a nonlinear force with the one for a linear force, and give asymptotic estimates on functions of the phase space process     

Conditions for stability and stabilization of systems of neutral type with nonmonotone Lyapunov functionals

We suggest new tests for the stability and uniform asymptotic stability of an equilibrium in systems of neutral type. By using these tests, we prove conditions for optimal stabilization and derive new estimates for perturbations that can be countered by a system closed by an optimal control. We show that, by using nonmonotone sign-indefinite functionals as Lyapunov functionals, one can obtain conditions for uniform asymptotic stability that do not contain the a priori requirement of stability of the difference operator and do not imply the boundedness of the right-hand side of the system. When studying the action of perturbations on the stabilized systems, these conditions permit one to obtain new estimates of perturbations preserving the stabilizing properties of optimal controls. The obtained estimates do not imply any constraint on the value of perturbations in some domains of the phase space that are defined when constructing an optimal stabilizing control. Some examples are considered.     

Global existence and asymptotic dynamics in a 3D fractional chemotaxis system with singular sensitivity

In this paper, we investigate the global existence and asymptotic dynamics of solutions to a fractional singular chemotaxis system in three dimensional whole space. We deal with the new difficulties arising from fractional diffusion by using Riesz transform and Kato-Ponce’s commutator estimates appropriately, and establish the local existence of solution. Then with the help of combining the local existence and the a priori estimates, the global existence and uniqueness of solution with small initial data is derived. Moreover, we obtain the asymptotic decay rates of solution by the method of energy estimates.     

Second-order optimality conditions in set-valued optimization via asymptotic derivatives

In this article we give new second-order optimality conditions in set-valued optimization. We use the second-order asymptotic tangent cones to define second-order asymptotic derivatives and employ them to give the optimality conditions. We extend the well-known Dubovitskii–Milutin approach to set-valued optimization to express the optimality conditions given as an empty intersection of certain cones in the objective space. We also use some duality arguments to give new multiplier rules. By following the more commonly adopted direct approach, we also give optimality conditions in terms of a disjunction of certain cones in the image space. Several particular cases are discussed.     

Uniform Estimates and the Whole Asymptotic Series of the Heat Content on Manifolds

We give a recursive algorithm for the computation of the complete asymptotic series, for small time, of the amount of heat inside a domain with smooth boundary in a Riemannian manifold; we consider arbitrary smooth initial data, and we impose Dirichlet condition on the boundary. When the Ricci curvature of the domain and the mean curvature of its boundary are both nonnegative, we also give sharp upper and lower bounds of the heat content which hold for all values of time. These estimates extend to convex sets of the Euclidean space having arbitrary boundary.     

Schauder estimates for elliptic operators with applications to nodal sets

In this paper we first give a priori estimates on asymptotic polynomials of solutions to elliptic equations at nodal points. This leads to a pointwise version of Schauder estimates. As an application we discuss the structure of nodal sets of solutions to elliptic equations with nonsmooth coefficients.     

Existence and Asymptotic Behavior of Radially Symmetric Solutions to a Semilinear Hyperbolic System in Odd Space Dimensions

This paper is concerned with a class of semilinear hyperbolic systems in odd space dimensions. Our main aim is to prove the existence of a small amplitude solution which is asymptotic to the free solution as t→-∞in the energy norm, and to show it has a free profile as t→ ∞. Our approach is based on the work of [11]. Namely we use a weighted L∞norm to get suitable a priori estimates. This can be done by restricting our attention to radially symmetric solutions. Corresponding initial value problem is also considered in an analogous framework. Besides, we give an extended result of [14] for three space dimensional case in Section 5, which is prepared independently of the other parts of the paper.     

Asymptotic Estimates of the Distribution of Brownian Hitting Time of a Disc

The distribution of the first hitting time of a disc for the standard two-dimensional Brownian motion is computed. By investigating the inversion integral of its Laplace transform we give fairly detailed asymptotic estimates of its density valid uniformly with respect to the point from which the Brownian motion starts.     

Revisiting the heat kernel on isotropic and nonisotropic Heisenberg groups*

The aim of this paper is threefold. First, we obtain the precise bounds for the heat kernel on isotropic Heisenberg groups by using well-known results in the three-dimensional case. Second, we study the asymptotic estimates at infinity for the heat kernel on nonisotropic Heisenberg groups. As a consequence, we give uniform upper and lower estimates of the heat kernel, and complete its short-time behavior obtained by Beals–Gaveau–Greiner. Third, we prove that the uniform asymptotic behaviour at infinity (so the small-time asymptotic behaviour) of the heat kernel for Grushin operators, obtained by the first author, are still valid in two and three dimensions.

Asymptotic Behavior of Large Weak Entropy Solutions of the Damped p-system

The asymptotic behavior of solutions of the damped p-system is known to be described by a nonlinear diffusion equation. The previous works on this topic concern either the case of small smooth data where estimates of high-order derivatives are available by energy methods or the case of special and small rough data. For large data, the existence of solutions is proved by using the method of compensated compactness. Thus the above mentioned energy estimates are not expected. However, the compensated compactness gives a very weak justification (in the mean in time) of the asymptotics. In the present paper we prove that the natural energy estimates, which does not involve derivatives, combined with this “convergence in the mean”, gives the strong convergence in L^p_{loc} space (p is finite) as expected.     

Nonmonotone functionals in the Lyapunov direct method for equations of the neutral type

We present new tests for the stability and asymptotic stability of trivial solutions of equations with deviating argument of the neutral type. Unlike well-known results, here we use nonmonotone indefinite Lyapunov functionals. Our class of functionals contains both Lyapunov-Krasovskii functionals and Lyapunov-Razumikhin functions as natural special cases. This class of functionals is broad enough that, in a number of stability tests, we have been able to omit the a priori requirement of stability of the corresponding difference operator. In addition, we present tests for the asymptotic stability of solutions of equations of the neutral type with unbounded right-hand side and new estimates for the magnitude of perturbations that do not violate the asymptotic stability if it holds for the unperturbed equation. The obtained estimates single out domains of the phase space in which perturbations should be small and domains in which essentially no constraints are imposed on the perturbation magnitude.     

Approximate damped oscillatory solutions for compound KdV-Burgers equation and their error estimates

In this paper,we focus on studying approximate solutions of damped oscillatory solutions of the compound KdV-Burgers equation and their error estimates.We employ the theory of planar dynamical systems to study traveling wave solutions of the compound KdV-Burgers equation.We obtain some global phase portraits under different parameter conditions as well as the existence of bounded traveling wave solutions.Furthermore,we investigate the relations between the behavior of bounded traveling wave solutions and the dissipation coefficient r of the equation.We obtain two critical values of r,and find that a bounded traveling wave appears as a kink profile solitary wave if |r| is greater than or equal to some critical value,while it appears as a damped oscillatory wave if |r| is less than some critical value.By means of analysis and the undetermined coefficients method,we find that the compound KdV-Burgers equation only has three kinds of bell profile solitary wave solutions without dissipation.Based on the above discussions and according to the evolution relations of orbits in the global phase portraits,we obtain all approximate damped oscillatory solutions by using the undetermined coefficients method.Finally,using the homogenization principle,we establish the integral equations reflecting the relations between exact solutions and approximate solutions of damped oscillatory solutions.Moreover,we also give the error estimates for these approximate solutions.     

Connection Formulas for Second Order Differential Equations with a Complex Parameter and Having an Arbitrary Number of Turning Points

We consider the differential equation on a finite interval I, where I contains m turning points, that is here, zeros of ?. Using asymptotic estimates proved by R. E. LANGER for solutions of (*) for intervals containing only one turning point we derive asymptotic estimates (for ρ → ) for a special fundamental system of solutions of (*) in I. The results obtained are fundamental for the investigation of eigenvalue problems defined by (*) and suitable boundary conditions.     

A Relation between formal and Asymptotic Equivalence for linear Systems Containing A Parameter

We use an elementary method to draw analytic conclusions from divergent formal power series solutions of systems of differential equations containing a parameter and give some applications to the theory of turning points. Our main result shows that a divergent formal series transformation of one system into another in which the coefficients satisfy certain estimates is necessarily the asymptotic expansion of an actual transformation. We use it to show the following. Given a two dimensional system ε^Pdy/dx = A(x,ε)y with A holomorphic at (x₀,0), suppose that x₀ is formally not a turning point in the sense that no singularities appear at x₀ during the standard formal solution procedure with formal fractional power series in ε. Then the formal solution is necessarily a uniform asymptotic representation of a fundamental matrix of the system on a full neighborhood of x₀. (This conclusion is known to fail under weaker hypotheses on A). We also obtain similar but less complete results for higher order systems under more specialized hypotheses.

Lossless error estimates for the stationary phase method with applications to propagation features for the Schrödinger equation

We consider a version of the stationary phase method in one dimension of A. Erdélyi, allowing the phase to have stationary points of non‐integer order and the amplitude to have integrable singularities. After having completed the original proof and improved the error estimate in the case of regular amplitude, we consider a modification of the method by replacing the smooth cut‐off function employed in the source by a characteristic function, leading to more precise remainder estimates. We exploit this refinement to study the time‐asymptotic behaviour of the solution of the free Schrödinger equation on the line, where the Fourier transform of the initial data is compactly supported and has a singularity. We obtain asymptotic expansions with respect to time in certain space‐time cones as well as uniform and optimal estimates in curved regions, which are asymptotically larger than any space‐time cone. These results show the influence of the frequency band and of the singularity on the propagation and on the decay of the wave packets. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
