Fractional Schrödinger equation; solvability and connection with classical Schrödinger equation

We consider the Dirichlet boundary problem for semilinear fractional Schrödinger equation with subcritical nonlinear term. Local and global in time solvability and regularity properties of solutions are discussed. But our main task is to describe the connections of the fractional equation with the classical nonlinear Schrödinger equation, including convergence of the linear semigroups and continuity of the nonlinear semigroups when the fractional exponent α approaches 1.     

Limit theorems for strongly and intermediately supercritical branching processes in random environment with linear fractional offspring distributions

In the present paper, we characterize the behavior of supercritical branching processes in random environment with linear fractional offspring distributions, conditioned on having small, but positive values at some large generation. As it has been noticed in previous works, there is a phase transition in the behavior of the process. Here, we examine the strongly and intermediately supercritical regimes The main result is a conditional limit theorem for the rescaled associated random walk in the intermediately case.     

On a 1D transport equation with nonlocal velocity and supercritical dissipation

We study a 1D transport equation with nonlocal velocity. First, we prove eventual regularization of the viscous regularization when dissipation is in the supercritical range with non-negative initial data. Next, we will prove global regularity for solutions when dissipation is slightly supercritical. Both results utilize a nonlocal maximum principle.     

Asymptotic properties of maximum likelihood estimator for the growth rate for a jump-type CIR process based on continuous time observations

We consider a jump-type Cox–Ingersoll–Ross (CIR) process driven by a standard Wiener process and a subordinator, and we study asymptotic properties of the maximum likelihood estimator (MLE) for its growth rate. We distinguish three cases: subcritical, critical and supercritical. In the subcritical case we prove weak consistency and asymptotic normality, and, under an additional moment assumption, strong consistency as well. In the supercritical case, we prove strong consistency and mixed normal (but non-normal) asymptotic behavior, while in the critical case, weak consistency and non-standard asymptotic behavior are described. We specialize our results to so-called basic affine jump–diffusions as well. Concerning the asymptotic behavior of the MLE in the supercritical case, we derive a stochastic representation of the limiting mixed normal distribution, where the almost sure limit of an appropriately scaled jump-type supercritical CIR process comes into play. This is a new phenomenon, compared to the critical case, where a diffusion-type critical CIR process plays a role.     

Strichartz estimates for the wave equation on manifolds with boundary

We prove certain mixed-norm Strichartz estimates on manifolds with boundary. Using them we are able to prove new results for the critical and subcritical wave equation in 4-dimensions with Dirichlet or Neumann boundary conditions. We obtain global existence in the subcritical case, as well as global existence for the critical equation with small data. We also can use our Strichartz estimates to prove scattering results for the critical wave equation with Dirichlet boundary conditions in 3-dimensions.     

Bifurcation and Stability Theory of Periodic Solutions For Integrodifferential Equations

This paper is concerned with a nonlinear integrodifferential equation (the delay logistic equation) governing the growth dynamics of a single species N(t) for time t > 0. This equation contains a positive parameter λ. Suppose that there exists a positive equilibrium solution N = c which is stable for all small values of λ. Assume also that this solution loses stability as λ is increased past a critical value λ*. This will correspond to a simple pure imaginary conjugate pair of roots of a characteristic equation associated with the linearized stability of N = c at λ = λ*. Then we will construct a unique bifurcating time periodic solution of the equation as a Taylor series in a parameter ε. Furthermore this solution exists either for supercritical values of the parameter (λ > λ*) or for subcritical values (λ < λ*). The stability behavior of this small periodic solution can be characterized according to whether the bifurcation is supercritical or subcritical-supercritical solutions are stable, but subcritical solutions are unstable. Therefore these results are analogous to Hoprs bifurcation theorem for autonomous systems of differential equations.     

Kirchhoff equations with strong damping

We consider Kirchhoff equations with strong damping, namely with a friction term which depends on a power of the “elastic” operator. We address local and global existence of solutions in two different regimes depending on the exponent in the friction term. When the exponent is greater than 1/2, the dissipation prevails, and we obtain global existence in the energy space, assuming only degenerate hyperbolicity and continuity of the nonlinear term. When the exponent is less than 1/2, we assume strict hyperbolicity and we consider a phase space depending on the continuity modulus of the nonlinear term and on the exponent in the damping. In this phase space, we prove local existence and global existence if initial data are small enough. The regularity we assume both on initial data and on the nonlinear term is weaker than in the classical results for Kirchhoff equations with standard damping. Proofs exploit some recent sharp results for the linearized equation and suitably defined interpolation spaces.     

Existence and concentration results for some fractional Schrödinger equations in RN with magnetic fields

We consider some nonlinear fractional Schrödinger equations with magnetic field and involving continuous nonlinearities having subcritical, critical or supercritical growth. Under a local condition on the potential, we use minimax methods to investigate the existence and concentration of nontrivial weak solutions.     

Subcritical catalytic branching random walk with finite or infinite variance of offspring number

Subcritical catalytic branching random walk on the d-dimensional integer lattice is studied. New theorems concerning the asymptotic behavior of distributions of local particle numbers are established. To prove the results, different approaches are used, including the connection between fractional moments of random variables and fractional derivatives of their Laplace transforms. In the previous papers on this subject only supercritical and critical regimes were investigated under the assumptions of finiteness of the first moment of offspring number and finiteness of the variance of offspring number, respectively. In the present paper, for the offspring number in the subcritical regime, the finiteness of the moment of order 1 + δ is required where δ is some positive number.     

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.     

Blow-up of solutions of some nonlinear wave equations

We analyze the problem of blow-up of global solutions of a semilinear wave equation with a potential and with a possible degeneration at infinity for nonnegative initial data with compact support. By using the nonlinear capacity method, we prove the theorem on the nonexistence of such a solution for a subcritical and the critical nonlinearity exponent.     

A competition between Fujita and Strauss type exponents for blow-up of semi-linear wave equations with scale-invariant damping and mass

We obtain a blow-up result for solutions to a semi-linear wave equation with scale-invariant dissipation and mass and power non-linearity, in the case in which the model has a “wave like” behavior. We perform a change of variables that transforms our starting equation in a strictly hyperbolic semi-linear wave equation with time-dependent speed of propagation. Applying Kato's lemma we prove a blow-up result for solutions to the transformed equation under some assumptions on the initial data. The limit case, that is, when the exponent p is exactly equal to the upper bound of the range of admissible values of p yielding blow-up needs special considerations. In this critical case an explicit integral representation formula for solutions of the corresponding linear Cauchy problem in 1d is derived. Finally, carrying out the inverse change of variables we get a non-existence result for global (in time) solutions to the original model.     

On the global regularity of generalized Leray-alpha type models

We generalize Leray-alpha type models studied in Cheskidov et al. (2005) [1] and Linshiz and Titi (2007) [4] via fractional Laplacians and employ Besov space techniques to obtain global regularity results with the logarithmically supercritical dissipation.     

On the global regularity of <Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>-dimensional generalized Boussinesq system

We study the N-dimensional Boussinesq system with dissipation and diffusion generalized in terms of fractional Laplacians. In particular, we show that given the critical dissipation, a solution pair remains smooth for all time even with zero diffusivity. In the supercritical case, we obtain component reduction results of regularity criteria and smallness conditions for the global regularity in dimensions two and three.     

Some Problems of Nonlinear Schrodinger Equations with the Effect of Dissipation

We first consider the initial value problem of nonlinear Schrödinger equation with the effect of dissipation, and prove the existence of global generalized solution and smooth solution as some conditions respectively. Secondly, we disscuss the asymptotic behavior of solution of mixed problem in bounded domain for above equation. Thirdly, we find the “blow up” phenomenon of the solution of mixed problem for equation iu_t = Δu + βf(|u|²)u - i\frac{ϒ(t)}{2}u, \quad x ∈ Ω ⊂ R³, t > 0 i. e. there exists T_0 > 0 such that lim^{t→Γ_0} || ∇u || ²_{L_t(Ω)} = ∞. The main means are a prior estimates on fractional degree Sobolev space, related properties of operator's semigroup and some integral identities.     

The rate of convergence of Hurst index estimate for the stochastic differential equation

We consider a stochastic differential equation involving a pathwise integral with respect to fractional Brownian motion. The estimates for the Hurst parameter are constructed according to first- and second-order quadratic variations of observed values of the solution. The rate of convergence of these estimates to the true value of a parameter is established when the diameter of interval partition tends to zero.     

Well-Posedness and Blow-Up for the Fractional Schrödinger- Choquard Equation

In this paper, we study the well-posedness and blow-up solutions for the fractional Schrödinger equation with a Hartree-type nonlinearity together with a power-type subcritical or critical perturbations. For nonradial initial data or radial initial data, we prove the local well-posedness for the defocusing and the focusing cases with subcritical or critical nonlinearity. We obtain the global well-posedness for the defocusing case, and for the focusing mass-subcritical case or mass-critical case with initial data small enough. We also investigate blow-up solutions for the focusing mass-critical problem.

Global regularity for d-dimensional micropolar equations with fractional dissipation

This paper is devoted to the global in time existence of classical solutions to the d-Dimensional (dD) micropolar equations with fractional dissipation. Micropolar equations model a class of fluids with nonsymmetric stress tensor such as fluids consisting of particles suspended in a viscous medium. It remains unknown whether or not smooth solutions of the classical 3D micropolar equations can develop finite-time singularities. The purpose here is to explore the global regularity of solutions for dD micropolar equations under the smallest amount of dissipation. We establish the global regularity for two important fractional dissipation cases. Direct energy estimates are not sufficient to obtain the desired global a priori bounds in each case. To overcome the difficulties, we employ the Besov space techniques.
