Nonexistence of global solutions of wave equations with weak time-dependent damping and combined nonlinearity

In our previous two works, we studied the blow-up and lifespan estimates for damped wave equations with a power nonlinearity of the solution or its derivative, with scattering damping independently. In this work, we are devoted to establishing a similar result for a combined nonlinearity. Comparing to the result of wave equation without damping, one can say that the scattering damping has no influence.     

Critical Trace Trudinger-Moser Inequalities on a Compact Riemann Surface with Smooth Boundary

In this paper, the author concerns two trace Trudinger-Moser inequalities and obtains the corresponding extremal functions on a compact Riemann surface (Σ, g) with smooth boundary ?Σ. Explicitly, let λ₁(?Σ) = inf u∈W^1,2 (Σ,g),R ?Σ udsg=0,u6≡0 R Σ(|?gu|2 + u2 )dvg R ?Σ u2 dsg and H = n u ∈ W^1,2 (Σ, g) : Z Σ(|?gu|2 + u2 )dvg ? α Z ?Σ u2dsg ≤ 1 and Z ?Σ u dsg = 0o ,where W^1,2 (Σ, g) denotes the usual Sobolev space and ?g stands for the gradient operator.By the method of blow-up analysis, we obtain sup u∈H Z ?Σ e πu2 dsg ( < +∞, 0 ≤ α < λ1(?Σ),= +∞, α ≥ λ1(?Σ).Moreover, the author proves the above supremum is attained by a function uα ∈ H∩C∞(Σ)for any 0 ≤ α < λ1(?Σ). Further, he extends the result to the case of higher order eigenvalues. The results generalize those of [Li, Y. and Liu, P., Moser-Trudinger inequality on the boundary of compact Riemannian surface, Math. Z., 250, 2005, 363–386], [Yang,Y., Moser-Trudinger trace inequalities on a compact Riemannian surface with boundary,Pacific J. Math., 227, 2006, 177–200] and [Yang, Y., Extremal functions for TrudingerMoser inequalities of Adimurthi-Druet type in dimension two, J. Diff. Eq., 258, 2015,3161–3193]     

Nonexistence of global solutions for generalized Tricomi equations with combined nonlinearity

In the present paper, we investigate the blow-up dynamics for local solutions to the semilinear generalized Tricomi equation with combined nonlinearity. As a result, we enlarge the blow-up region in comparison to the ones for the corresponding semilinear models with either power nonlinearity or nonlinearity of derivative type. Our approach is based on an iteration argument to establish lower bound estimates for the space average of local solutions. Finally, we obtain upper bound estimates for the lifespan of local solutions as byproduct of our iteration argument.     

Strong solutions to the equations of electrically conductive magnetic fluids

We study the equations of flow of an electrically conductive magnetic fluid, when the fluid is subjected to the action of an external applied magnetic field. The system is formed by the incompressible Navier–Stokes equations, the magnetization relaxation equation of Bloch type and the magnetic induction equation. The system takes into account the Kelvin and Lorentz force densities. We prove the local-in-time existence of the unique strong solution to the system equipped with initial and boundary conditions. We also establish a blow-up criterion for the local strong solution.     

A nonlinear diffusion system coupled via nonlinear boundary flux

In this paper, we deal with the global existence and nonexistence of solutions to a nonlinear diffusion system coupled via nonlinear boundary flux. By constructing various kinds of sub- and super-solutions and using the basic properties of M-matrix, we give the necessary and sufficient conditions for global existence of nonnegative solutions. The critical curve of Fujita type is conjectured with the aid of some new results, which extend the recent results of Wang et al. [Nonlinear Anal. 71 (2009) 2134-2140] and Li et al. [J. Math. Anal. Appl. 340 (2008) 876-883] to more general equations.
