Nonexistence and longtime behaviors of solutions to a class of nonlinear degenerate parabolic equations not in divergence form

In this paper, we study the nonexistence and longtime behavior of weak solution for the degenerate parabolic equation ? _t u ⁿ = u ^m div(|?u ^m | ^p?2?u ^m ) + γ|?u ^m | ^p + β u ⁿ with zero boundary condition. Blow-up time is derived when the blow-up does occur.     

On the boundedness of generalized solutions of higher-order nonlinear elliptic equations with data from an Orlicz–Zygmund class

In the present paper, a 2mth-order quasilinear divergence equation is considered under the condition that its coefficients satisfy the Carathéodory condition and the standard conditions of growth and coercivity in the Sobolev space W^m,p(Ω), Ω ? Rⁿ, p > 1. It is proved that an arbitrary generalized (in the sense of distributions) solution u ∈ W₀^m,p (Ω) of this equation is bounded if m ≥ 2, n = mp, and the right-hand side of this equation belongs to the Orlicz–Zygmund space L(log L)^n?1(Ω).     

Second-order evaluations of orthogonal and symplectic Yangians

Orthogonal or symplectic Yangians are defined by the Yang–Baxter RLL relation involving the fundamental R-matrix with the corresponding so(n) or sp(2m) symmetry. We investigate the second-order solution conditions, where the expansion of L(u) in u ^?1 is truncated at the second power, and we derive the relations for the two nontrivial terms in L(u).     

Blow-up of critical norms for the 3-D Navier-Stokes equations

Let u =(uh, u3) be a smooth solution of the 3-D Navier-Stokes equations in R3× [0, T). It was proved that if u3 ∈ L∞(0, T;˙B-1+3/p p,q(R3)) for 3 p, q ∞ and uh∈ L∞(0, T; BMO-1(R3)) with uh(T) ∈ VMO-1(R3), then u can be extended beyond T. This result generalizes the recent result proved by Gallagher et al.(2016), which requires u ∈ L∞(0, T;˙B-1+3/pp,q(R3)). Our proof is based on a new interior regularity criterion in terms of one velocity component, which is independent of interest.     

Existence of saddle solutions of a nonlinear elliptic equation involving <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-Laplacian in more even-dimensional spaces

We show that there exist saddle solutions of the nonlinear elliptic equation involving the p-Laplacian, p > 2, -Δ _p u = f(u) in R^2m for all dimensions satisfying 2m ≥ p, by using sub-supersolution method. The existence of saddle solutions of the above problem was known only in dimensions 2m ≥ 2p.     

A tracing of the fractional temperature field

This paper is devoted to a study of L~q-tracing of the fractional temperature field u(t, x)—the weak solution of the fractional heat equation(?_t +(-?_x)~α)u(t, x) = g(t, x) in L~p(R_+~(1+n)) subject to the initial temperature u(0, x) = f(x) in L~p(R~n).     

Estimates for the Torsion Function and Sobolev Constants

Let Ω be an open set in Euclidean space, and let u : Ω → ?^?+? be the expected lifetime of Brownian motion in Ω. It is shown that if u?∈?L ^p (Ω) for some p?∈?[1, ?∞?) then (i) u?∈?L ^q (Ω) for all q?∈?[p,?∞?], and (ii) \({trace}\left(e^{t\Delta_{\Omega}}\right)<\infty\) for all t?>?0, where ??Δ_Ω is the Dirichlet Laplacian acting in L ²(Ω). Pointwise bounds are obtained for u in terms of the first Dirichlet eigenfunction for Ω, assuming that the spectrum of ??Δ_Ω is discrete. It is shown that if Ω is open, bounded and connected in the plane and \(\partial\Omega\) has an interior wedge with opening angle α at vertex v then the first Dirichlet eigenfunction and u are comparable near v if and only if α?≥?π/2. Two sided estimates are obtained for the Sobolev constant

$ C_p(\Omega):= \inf\left\{\Vert \nabla u \Vert_2^2: u \in C_0^{\infty}(\Omega),\ \Vert u\Vert_p = 1\right\}, $

where 0?p?Ω satisfies a strong Hardy inequality, and the distance to the boundary function δ?∈?L ^2p/(2???p)(Ω).

Systems of dilated functions: Completeness,minimality, basisness

The completeness, minimality, and basis property in L ²[0, π] and L ^p[0, π], p ≠ 2, are considered for systems of dilated functions u _n (x) = S(nx), n ∈ N, where S is the trigonometric polynomial S(x) = Σ _k=0 ^m a _k sin(kx), a ₀ a _m ≠ 0. A series of results are presented and several unanswered questions are mentioned.     

A superconvergent local discontinuous Galerkin method for nonlinear two-point boundary-value problems

In this paper, we present and analyze a superconvergent and high order accurate local discontinuous Galerkin (LDG) method for nonlinear two-point boundary-value problems (BVPs) of the form u ^″ = f (t, u), which arise in a wide variety of engineering applications. We prove the L ² stability of the LDG scheme and optimal L ² error estimates for the solution and for the auxiliary variable that approximates the first-order derivative. The order of convergence is proved to be p +?1, when piecewise polynomials of degree at most p are used. Our numerical experiments demonstrate optimal rates of convergence. Moreover, we show that the derivatives of the LDG solutions are superconvergent with order p +?1 toward the derivatives of Gausss-Radau projections of the exact solutions. Finally, we prove that the LDG solutions are superconvergent with order p +?3/2 toward Gauss-Radau projections of the exact solutions. Our computational results indicate that the observed numerical superconvergence rate is p +?2. Our proofs are valid for arbitrary regular meshes using piecewise polynomials of degree p ≥?1 and for the periodic, Dirichlet, and mixed boundary conditions. All proofs are valid under the hypotheses of the existence and uniqueness theorem for BVPs. Several numerical results are presented to validate the theoretical results.

For the equation (sign y)|y| ^m u _xx +u _yy ?m(2y)^?1 u _y = 0, where m > 0, considered in some mixed domain, we prove existence and uniqueness theorems for the solution of the boundary value problem with an analog of the Frankl’ condition on a characteristic and on the degeneration segment of the equation.     

Boundary blow-up solutions of <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-Laplacian elliptic equations with lower order terms

We study the existence, uniqueness, and asymptotic behavior of blow-up solutions for a general quasilinear elliptic equation of the type ?Δ _p u = a(x)u ^m ?b(x)f(u) with p >  1 and 0 <  m <  p?1. The main technical tool is a new comparison principle that enables us to extend arguments for semilinear equations to quasilinear ones. Indeed, this paper is an attempt to generalize all available results for the semilinear case with p =  2 to the quasilinear case with p >  1.     

The defocusing energy-supercritical NLS in higher dimensions

We consider the defocusing nonlinear Schr?dinger equations iu_t +△u =|u|~(p_u) with p being an even integer in dimensions d≥ 5. We prove that an a priori bound of critical norm implies global well-posedness and scattering for the solution.     

Polynomial dynamical systems and the Korteweg—de Vries equation

We explicitly construct polynomial vector fields L_k, k = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, on the complex linear space C⁶ with coordinates X = (x₂, x₃, x₄) and Z = (z₄, z₅, z₆). The fields L_k are linearly independent outside their discriminant variety Δ ? C⁶ and are tangent to this variety. We describe a polynomial Lie algebra of the fields L_k and the structure of the polynomial ring C[X,Z] as a graded module with two generators x₂ and z₄ over this algebra. The fields L₁ and L₃ commute. Any polynomial P(X,Z) ∈ C[X,Z] determines a hyperelliptic function P(X,Z)(u₁, u₃) of genus 2, where u₁ and u₃ are the coordinates of trajectories of the fields L₁ and L₃. The function 2x₂(u₁, u₃) is a two-zone solution of the Korteweg–de Vries hierarchy, and ?z₄(u₁, u₃)/?u₁ = ?x₂(u₁, u₃)/?u₃.     

Convergence of ground state solutions for nonlinear Schrdinger equations on graphs

We consider the nonlinear Schr¨odinger equation-?u +(λa(x) + 1)u = |u|~(p-1) u on a locally finite graph G =(V, E). We prove via the Nehari method that if a(x) satisfies certain assumptions, for any λ 1, the equation admits a ground state solution uλ. Moreover, as λ→∞, the solution uλconverges to a solution of the Dirichlet problem-?u + u = |u|~(p-1) u which is defined on the potential well ?. We also provide a numerical experiment which solves the equation on a finite graph to illustrate our results.     

Convergence and superconvergence analyses of HDG methods for time fractional diffusion problems

We study the hybridizable discontinuous Galerkin (HDG) method for the spatial discretization of time fractional diffusion models with Caputo derivative of order 0 < α < 1. For each time t ∈ [0, T], when the HDG approximations are taken to be piecewise polynomials of degree k ≥ 0 on the spatial domain Ω, the approximations to the exact solution u in the L _∞(0, T; L ₂(Ω))-norm and to ?u in the \(L_{\infty }(0, \textit {T}; \mathbf {L}_{2}({\Omega }))\)-norm are proven to converge with the rate h ^k+1 provided that u is sufficiently regular, where h is the maximum diameter of the elements of the mesh. Moreover, for k ≥ 1, we obtain a superconvergence result which allows us to compute, in an elementwise manner, a new approximation for u converging with a rate h ^k+2 (ignoring the logarithmic factor), for quasi-uniform spatial meshes. Numerical experiments validating the theoretical results are displayed.

We prove that the mixed problem for the Klein–Gordon–Fock equation u _tt (x, t) ? u _xx (x, t) + au(x, t) = 0, where a ≥ 0, in the rectangle Q _T = [0 ≤ x ≤ l] × [0 ≤ t ≤ T] with zero initial conditions and with the boundary conditions u(0, t) = μ(t) ∈ L _p [0, T ], u(l, t) = 0, has a unique generalized solution u(x, t) in the class L _p (Q _T ) for p ≥ 1. We construct the solution in explicit analytic form.     

Global Well-posedness of the Stochastic Generalized Kuramoto-Sivashinsky Equation with Multiplicative Noise

Global well-posedness of the initial-boundary value problem for the stochastic generalized Kuramoto- Sivashinsky equation in a bounded domain D with a multiplicative noise is studied. It is shown that under suitable sufficient conditions, for any initial data u₀ ∈ L₂(D × Ω), this problem has a unique global solution u in the space L₂(Ω, C([0, T], L₂(D))) for any T >0, and the solution map u₀ ? u is Lipschitz continuous.     

The best <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Subscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis></Subscript> approximation of the Laplace operator by linear bounded operators in the classes of functions of two and three variables

Close two-sided estimates are obtained for the best approximation in the space L _p (? ^m ), m = 2 and 3, 1 ≤ p ≤ ∞, of the Laplace operator by linear bounded operators in the class of functions for which the second power of the Laplace operator belongs to the space L _p (? ^m ). We estimate the best constant in the corresponding Kolmogorov inequality and the error of the optimal recovery of values of the Laplace operator on functions from this class given with an error. We present an operator whose deviation from the Laplace operator is close to the best.     

Necessary and Sufficient Conditions for the Solvability of the Neumann and the Regularity Problems in <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis></Superscript> of Some Schrödinger Equations on Lipschitz Domains

Let n ≥? 3and Ω be a bounded Lipschitz domain in \(\mathbb {R}^{n}\). Assume that the non-negative potential V belongs to the reverse Hölder class \(RH_{n}(\mathbb {R}^{n})\) and p ∈ (2, ∞). In this article, two necessary and sufficient conditions for the unique solvability of the Neumann and the Regularity problems of the Schrödinger equation ? Δu + V u =? 0 in Ω with boundary data in L ^p , in terms of a weak reverse Hölder inequality with exponent p and the unique solvability of the Neumann and the Regularity problems with boundary data in some weighted L ² space, are established. As applications, for any p ∈ (1, ∞), the unique solvability of the Regularity problem for the Schrödinger equation ? Δu + V u =?0 in the bounded (semi-)convex domain Ω with boundary data in L ^p is obtained.
