On solutions of anisotropic elliptic equations with variable exponent and measure data

ABSTRACT

The Dirichlet problem in arbitrary domains for a wide class of anisotropic elliptic equations of the second order with variable exponent nonlinearities and the right-hand side as a measure is considered. The existence of an entropy solution in anisotropic Sobolev spaces with variable exponents is established. It is proved that the obtained entropy solution is a renormalized solution of the considered problem.     

Weak solutions for a high-order pseudo-parabolic equation with variable exponents

In this paper, the authors investigate the existence and uniqueness of weak solutions of the initial and boundary value problem for a fourth-order pseudo-parabolic equation with variable exponents of non-linearity. Finally, the authors also obtain a long-time behaviour of weak solutions.     

Existence and Uniqueness of Entropy Solution of Scalar Conservation Laws with a Flux Function Involving Discontinuous Coefficients

ABSTRACT

In this paper, the question of existence and uniqueness for entropy solutions of scalar conservation laws with a flux function which is discontinuous with respect to the space variable is investigated. We show that no extra assumption of convexity or genuine non-linearity with respect to the state variable of the flux function is required for the problem to be well-posed and prove it. The proof uses a kinetic formulation of the conservation law.     

Renormalized entropy solutions to the Cauchy problem for first order quasilinear conservation laws in the class of periodic functions

We introduce the notion of a periodic in spatial variables renormalized entropy solution to the Cauchy problem for a first order quasilinear conservation law. We prove the existence and uniqueness theorems and comparison principle. We also clarify relations with generalized entropy solutions. Bibliography: 19 titles. Illustrations: 1 figure.     

Existence of global weak solutions to 2D reduced gravity two-and-a-half layer model

We study the global existence of weak solutions to a reduced gravity two-and-a-half layer model appearing in oceanic fluid dynamics in two-dimensional torus. Based on Faedo–Galerkin method and weak convergence method, we construct the global weak solutions which are renormalized in velocity variable, where the technique of renormalized solutions was introduced by Lacroix-Violet and Vasseur (2018). Besides, we prove that the renormalized solutions are weak solutions, which satisfy the basic energy inequality and Bresch–Desjardins entropy inequality, but not the Mellet–Vasseur type inequality. In the proof, we use the reduced gravity two-and-a-half layer model with drag forces and capillary term as approximate system. It should be pointed out that only when the capillary term vanishes, we prove the existence of renormalized solution to the approximation system, which is different from Lacroix-Violet and Vasseur (2018) with the quantum potential.     

Nonlinear Degenerate Anisotropic Elliptic Equations with Variable Exponents and L1 Data

This paper is devoted to the study of a nonlinear anisotropic elliptic equation with degenerate coercivity, lower order term and L¹ datum in appropriate anisotropic variable exponents Sobolev spaces. We obtain the existence of distributional solutions.     

Blow-up properties in the parabolic problems with anisotropic nonstandard growth conditions

In this paper, we study the parabolic problems with anisotropic nonstandard growth nonlinearities. We first give the existence and uniqueness of weak solutions in variable Sobolev spaces. Second, we use the energy methods to show the existence of blow-up solutions with negative or positive initial energy, respectively. Both the variable exponents and the coefficients make important roles in Fujita blow-up phenomena. Moreover, asymptotic properties of the blow-up solutions are determined.     

Fine regularity for elliptic and parabolic anisotropic Robin problems with variable exponents

We investigate a class of quasi-linear elliptic and parabolic anisotropic problems with variable exponents over a general class of bounded non-smooth domains, which may include non-Lipschitz domains, such as domains with fractal boundary and rough domains. We obtain solvability and global regularity results for both the elliptic and parabolic Robin problem. Some a priori estimates, as well as fine properties for the corresponding nonlinear semigroups, are established. As a consequence, we generalize the global regularity theory for the Robin problem over non-smooth domains by extending it for the first time to the variable exponent case, and furthermore, to the anisotropic variable exponent case.     

A new class of nonhomogeneous differential operator and applications to anisotropic systems

We introduce a new class of operators that extend both generalized Laplace operators and generalized mean curvature operators. We start the discussion on general anisotropic systems with variable exponents that involve our operators, then we focus on a specific example of such system, we show that it admits a unique weak solution and we complete our work with some comments on other related systems. The newly introduced operators are appropriate for the study conducted in the anisotropic spaces with variable exponents, but at the end of the paper we also provide their versions corresponding to the studies conducted in the anisotropic Sobolev spaces with constant exponents, or in the isotropic variable exponent Sobolev spaces, since, to the best of our knowledge, they represent a novelty even for the classical Sobolev spaces.     

Entropy and renormalized solutions to the general nonlinear elliptic equations in Musielak–Orlicz spaces

In this paper we mainly prove the existence and uniqueness of entropy solutions and the uniqueness of renormalized solutions to the general nonlinear elliptic equations in Musielak-Orlicz spaces. Moreover, we also obtain the equivalence of entropy solutions and renormalized solutions in the present conditions.     

Nonlinear anisotropic elliptic equations in with variable exponents and locally integrable data

In this paper, we prove existence and regularity results for weak solutions in the framework of anisotropic Sobolev spaces for a class of nonlinear anisotropic elliptic equations in the whole with variable exponents and locally integrable data. Our approach is based on the anisotropic Sobolev inequality, a smoothness, and compactness results. The functional setting involves Lebesgue–Sobolev spaces with variable exponents.

A degenerate elliptic system with variable exponents

We study a degenerate elliptic system with variable exponents. Using the variational approach and some recent theory on weighted Lebesgue and Sobolev spaces with variable exponents, we prove the existence of at least two distinct nontrivial weak solutions of the system. Several consequences of the main theorem are derived; in particular, the existence of at lease two distinct nontrivial non-negative solutions is established for a scalar degenerate problem. One example is provided to show the applicability of our results.     

The unique solvability of a problem without initial conditions for linear and nonlinear elliptic-parabolic equations

The existence and the uniqueness of generalized solutions of a problem without initial conditions are established for linear and nonlinear anisotropic elliptic-parabolic second-order equations in domains unbounded in spatial variables. We put the restrictions on the behavior of solutions of the problem and the growth of its initial data at infinity. The equations have the nonlinearity exponents depending on points of the domain of definition and the direction of differentiation. Their weak solutions are taken from generalized Lebesgue–Sobolev spaces.     

A semilinear parabolic system with coupling variable exponents

This paper deals with semilinear parabolic equations coupled via variable sources, subject to the homogeneous Dirichlet condition in a bounded domain. Since the variable exponents in the sources are just assumed to be positive, the non-linearities may be non-Lipschitz. We establish the existence?Cuniqueness with comparison principle of local solutions to the regularized problem at first, and then consider the maximal solutions of the original problem as the limits of the solutions of the regularized problem. Some criteria are established for distinguishing global and non-global solutions of the problem, dependent or independent of initial data. Especially, we prove a Fujita type conclusion that the solutions blow up for any non-trivial initial data under certain assumptions on the variable sources and the size of the domain.     

Solutions of the Vlasov–Maxwell–Boltzmann system with long-range interactions

We establish the existence of renormalized solutions of the Vlasov–Maxwell–Boltzmann system with a defect measure in the presence of long-range interactions. We also present a control of the defect measure by the entropy dissipation only, which turns out to be crucial in the study of hydrodynamic limits.

Nonlinear elliptic boundary value problem with equivalued surface in a domain with thin layer

This paper deals with certain kinds of boundary value problems with equivalued surface of nonlinear elliptic equations on a domain with thin layer. We introduce the concept of renormalized solution to this problem. Existence and uniqueness of renormalized solutions are given, and the limit behaviour of solutions is studied in this paper.     

On well-posedness classes of locally bounded generalized entropy solutions of the Cauchy problem for quasilinear first-order equations

We study scalar conservation laws with power-growth restriction on the flux vector. For such equations, we find correctness classes for the Cauchy problem among locally bounded generalized entropy solutions. These classes are determined by some exponents of admissible growth with respect to space variables. We give examples showing that increasing the growth exponent leads to failure of the well-posedness. __________ Translated from Fundamentalnaya i Prikladnaya Matematika, Vol. 12, No. 5, pp. 175–188, 2006.     

Trend to equilibrium of renormalized solutions to reaction–cross-diffusion systems

The convergence to equilibrium of renormalized solutions to reaction–cross-diffusion systems in a bounded domain under no-flux boundary conditions is studied. The reactions model complex balanced chemical reaction networks coming from mass-action kinetics and thus do not obey any growth condition, while the diffusion matrix is of cross-diffusion type and hence nondiagonal and neither symmetric nor positive semi-definite, but the system admits a formal gradient-flow or entropy structure. The diffusion term generalizes the population model of Shigesada, Kawasaki and Teramoto to an arbitrary number of species. By showing that any renormalized solution satisfies the conservation of masses and a weak entropy–entropyproduction inequality, it can be proved under the assumption of no boundary equilibria that all renormalized solutions converge exponentially to the complex balanced equilibrium with a rate which is explicit up to a finite dimensional inequality.     

Multi-dimensional scalar balance laws with discontinuous flux

We consider scalar balance laws with a dissipative source term. The flux function may be discontinuous with respect to both the space variable x and the unknown quantity u. We formulate the definition of entropy weak solutions and provide existence and uniqueness to the considered problem. The problem is formulated in the framework of multi-valued mappings. The notion of entropy measure-valued solutions is used to prove the so-called contraction principle and comparison principle.
