The Gerdjikov‐Ivanov–type derivative nonlinear Schrödinger equation: Long‐time dynamics of nonzero boundary conditions

We consider the Gerdjikov‐Ivanov–type derivative nonlinear Schrödinger equation on the line. The initial value q(x,0) is given and satisfies the symmetric, nonzero boundary conditions at infinity, that is, q(x,0)→q_± as x→±∞, and |q_±|=q₀>0. The goal of this paper is to study the asymptotic behavior of the solution of this initial value problem as t→∞. The main tool is the asymptotic analysis of an associated matrix Riemann‐Hilbert problem by using the steepest descent method and the so‐called g‐function mechanism. We show that the solution q(x,t) of this initial value problem has a different asymptotic behavior in different regions of the xt‐plane. In the regions and , the solution takes the form of a plane wave. In the region , the solution takes the form of a modulated elliptic wave.     

Reciprocity formulae for generalized Dedekind‐Vasyunin‐cotangent sums

Recently, several works are done on the generalized Dedekind‐Vasyunin sum where and q are positive coprime integers, and ζ(a,x) denotes the Hurwitz zeta function. We prove explicit formula for the symmetric sum which is a new reciprocity law for the sum . Our result is a complement to recent results dealing with the sum studied by Bettin‐Conrey and then by Auli‐Bayad‐Beck. Accidentally, when a = 0, our reciprocity formula improves the known result in a previous study.

We consider the problem Δ²u = V(x)u^{p + ?} in with u,Δu→0 as |x|→ + ∞, where , N ≥ 5, V is a positive continuous potential. Our aim is to construct high‐energy solutions for this equation by applying the finite‐dimensional reduction method and the penalization method.     

Global existence and bounds for blow‐up time in a class of nonlinear pseudo‐parabolic equations with a memory term

In this article, we consider the initial boundary value problem for a class of nonlinear pseudo‐parabolic equations with a memory term: Under suitable assumptions, we obtain the local and global existence of the solution by Galerkin method. We prove finite‐time blow‐up of the solution for initial data at arbitrary energy level and obtain upper bounds for blow‐up time by using the concavity method. In addition, by means of differential inequality technique, we obtain a lower bound for blow‐up time of the solution if blow‐up occurs.     

Existence of positive solutions to fractional elliptic problems with Hardy potential and critical growth

In this work, we study the following critical problem involving the fractional Laplacian: where s ∈ (0,1), N > 2s, , and is the fractional critical exponent, 0 < μ < Λ_N,s, the sharp constant of the Hardy‐Sobolev inequality. For suitable assumptions on g(x) and K(x), we consider the existence and multiplicity of positive solutions depending on the value of p. Moreover, we obtain an existence result for the problem when λ = 0.     

Blow‐up of solutions for a viscoelastic wave equation with variable exponents

In this paper, we consider a viscoelastic wave equation with variable exponents: where the exponents of nonlinearity p(·) and m(·) are given functions and a,b > 0 are constants. For nonincreasing positive function g, we prove the blow‐up result for the solutions with positive initial energy as well as nonpositive initial energy. We extend the previous blow‐up results to a viscoelastic wave equation with variable exponents.     

Global existence and time decay estimate of solutions to the Keller–Segel system

We consider the chemotaxis‐Navier–Stokes system 1.1-1.4 (Keller–Segel system) in the whole space, which describes the motion of oxygen‐driven bacteria, eukaryotes, in a fluid. We proved the global existence and time decay estimate of solutions to the Cauchy problem 1.1-1.2 in with the small initial data. Moreover, when the fluid motion is described by the Stokes equations, we established the global weak solutions to 1.3-1.4 in with the potential function ? is small and the initial density n₀(x) has finite mass.

Lower bound for the ratios of eigenvalues of Schrödinger with nonpositive single‐barrier potentials

Horváth and Kiss (Proc. Amer. Math. Soc., 2005) proved the upper bound estimate for Dirichlet eigenvalue ratios of the Schrödinger problem ?y^′′ + q(x)y = λy with nonnegative and single‐well potential q. In this paper, we prove that if q(x) is a nonpositive, continuous, and single‐barrier potential, then for λ_n > λ_m≥ ? 2q^?, where . In particular, if q(x) satisfies the additional condition , then λ₁ > 0 and for n > m ≥ 1. For this result, we develop a new approach to study the monotonicity of the modified Prüfer angle function.

The inverse backscattering for Schrödinger operators for potentials with noncompact support

We consider the inverse backscattering problem for the Schrödinger operator H = ?Δ + V on , n ≥ 3, as well as the higher‐order Schrödinger operator ( ? Δ)^m + V, m = 2,3,…. We show that in some suitable Banach spaces, the map from the potential to the backscattering amplitude is a local diffeomorphism. This kind of problem (for m = 1) was studied by Eskin and Ralston [Comm. Math. Phys., 124(2), 169‐215 (1989)], where they assumed that . In this paper, we replace the assumption on V with certain decay assumption at infinity.

We consider the Cauchy problem of isentropic compressible magnetohydrodynamic equations with large potential force in . When the initial data (ρ₀,u₀,H₀) is of small energy, we investigate the global well‐posedness of classical solutions where the flow density is allowed to contain vacuum states.     

Exponential stability of a mildly dissipative viscoelastic plate equation with variable density

This paper is concerned with a viscoelastic Kirchhoff plate featuring variable material density. It is modeled by the equation defined in a bounded domain of , where ? = |u_t|^ρ accounts for a velocity‐dependent material density. It is known that its analogue second‐order wave equation can be exponentially stabilized with the sole dissipation given by the memory term. However, for the plate equation, exponential stability was only shown with an additional strong damping ?Δu_t. Our objective is to show the exponential stability of the present system by exploring only the memory term.     

On a parabolic‐elliptic chemotaxis system with periodic asymptotic behavior

We study a parabolic‐elliptic chemotactic PDEs system, which describes the evolution of a biological population “u” and a chemical substance “v” in a bounded domain . We consider a growth term of logistic type in the equation of “u” in the form μu(1 ? u + f(t,x)). The function “f,” describing the resources of the systems, presents a periodic asymptotic behavior in the sense where f ^? is independent of x and periodic in time. We study the global existence of solutions and its asymptotic behavior. Under suitable assumptions on the initial data and f ^?, if the constant chemotactic sensitivity χ satisfies we obtain that the solution of the system converges to a homogeneous in space and periodic in time function.

We study the asymptotic behavior of the smallest eigenvalue, λ_N, of the Hankel (or moments) matrix denoted by , with respect to the weight . An asymptotic expression of the polynomials orthogonal with w(x) is established. Using this, we obtain the specific asymptotic formulas of λ_N in this paper. Applying a parallel numerical algorithm, we get a variety of numerical results of λ_N corresponding to our theoretical calculations.

The purpose of this work is to investigate the blow‐up dynamics of L²?critical focusing inhomogeneous fractional nonlinear Schrödinger equation: with 0<b<1. For this, we establish a new compactness lemma related to the equation. By applying this lemma, we study the dynamical behavior for blow‐up solutions for initial data satisfying , where Q is the ground state solution of our problem.     

Solvability of eight classes of nonlinear systems of difference equations

We have studied recently solvability and semi‐cycles of eight systems of difference equations of the following form: where a ∈ [0, + ∞), the sequences p_n, q_n, r_n, s_n are some of the sequences x_n and y_n, with positive initial values x_?j,y_?j, j = 1,2, in detail. This paper is devoted to the study of the other eight systems of the form. We show that these systems are also solvable in closed form and describe semi‐cycles of their solutions complementing our previous results on such systems of difference equations.
