Zero Viscosity Limit for Analytic Solutions of the Primitive Equations

The aim of this paper is to prove that the solutions of the primitive equations converge, in the zero viscosity limit, to the solutions of the hydrostatic Euler equations. We construct the solution of the primitive equations through a matched asymptotic expansion involving the solution of the hydrostatic Euler equation and boundary layer correctors as the first order term, and an error that we show to be \({O(\sqrt{\nu})}\). The main assumption is spatial analyticity of the initial datum.     

Quasi-Periodic Solutions and Stability for a Weakly Damped Nonlinear Quasi-Periodic Mathieu Equation

Quasi-Periodic (QP) solutions are investigated for a weakly dampednonlinear QP Mathieu equation. A double parametric primary resonance(1:2, 1:2) is considered. To approximate QP solutions, a double multiple-scales method is applied to transform the original QP oscillator to anautonomous system performing two successive reductions. In a first step,the multiple-scales method is applied to the original equation to derive afirst reduced differential amplitude-phase system having periodiccomponents. The stability of stationary solutions of this reduced systemis analyzed. In a second step, the multiple-scales method is applied again tothe first reduced system (RS) to obtain a second autonomous differentialamplitude-phase RS. The problem for approximating QP solutions of theoriginal system is then transformed to the study of stationary regimesof the induced autonomous second RS. Explicit analytical approximationsto QP solutions are obtained and comparisons to numerical integrationare provided.

Quasi-Periodic Solutions with Prescribed Frequency in Reversible Systems

In this paper, we obtain a family of small-amplitude real analytic quasi-periodic solutions for a class of derivative nonlinear Schrödinger equations, subject to Dirichlet boundary conditions, which correspond to infinite-dimensional reversible systems with critical unbounded perturbations. We prove that the frequencies of the quasi-periodic solutions, accordingly, the tangential frequencies of the invariant tori for these reversible systems can be in a fixed direction.     

Quasi-Periodic Solutions for the Generalized Ginzburg-Landau Equation with Derivatives in the Nonlinearity

In this paper, we discuss the existence of time quasi-periodic solutions for the generalized Ginzburg-Landau equation under periodic boundary conditions. By constructing a KAM theorem for dissipative systems with unbounded perturbations and multiple normal frequencies, we obtain a Cantorian branch of 2-dimensional invariant tori for the generalized Ginzburg-Landau equation.     

Singularly Perturbed Ordinary Differential Equations with Nonautonomous Fast Dynamics

Embedding of nonautonomous dynamics in a skew-product flow is employed in the analysis of singularly perturbed equations, where the fast dynamics is time-varying. Uniform convergence of the slow dynamics and statistical convergence of the fast dynamics are established. The limits are characterized in terms of projections of invariant probability measures of the skew-product flow in which the fast dynamics is embedded. These invariant measures are generated by the limiting equations of the original time-dependent process.

Invariant Tori of Full Dimension for Second KdV Equations with the External Parameters

In this paper, we consider the second KdV equation with the external parameters

$$\begin{aligned} u_{t} =\partial _x^5 u +(M_{\sigma }u+u^3)_{x}, \end{aligned}$$

under zero mean-value periodic boundary conditions

$$\begin{aligned} u(t,x+2\pi )=u(t,x),\quad \int _0^{2\pi }u(t,x)dx=0, \end{aligned}$$

where \(M_\sigma \) is a real Fourier multiplier. It is proved that the equations admit a Whitney smooth family of small amplitude, real analytic almost periodic solutions with all frequencies. The proof is based on a conserved quantity \(\int _0^{2\pi } u^2 dx\), Töplitz–Lipschitz property of the perturbation and an abstract infinite dimensional KAM theorem. By taking advantage of the conserved quantity \(\int _0^{2\pi } u^2 dx\) and Töplitz–Lipschitz property of the perturbation, our normal form part is independent of angle variables in spite of the unbounded perturbation. This is the first attempt to prove the almost periodic solutions for the unbounded perturbation case.

     

Inertial Manifolds and Forms for Stochastically Perturbed Retarded Semilinear Parabolic Equations

We construct inertial manifolds for a class of random dynamical systems generated by retarded semilinear parabolic equations subjected to additive white noise. These inertial manifolds are finite-dimensional invariant surfaces, which attract exponentially all trajectories. We study the corresponding inertial forms, i.e., the restriction of the stochastic equation to the inertial manifold. These inertial forms are finite-dimensional Ito equations and they completely describe the long-time dynamics of the system under consideration. The existence of inertial manifolds and the properties of inertial forms allow us to show that under mild additional conditions the system has a global (random) attractor in the sense of the theory of random dynamical systems.

Quasivariational Solutions for First Order Quasilinear Equations with Gradient Constraint

We prove the existence of solutions for a quasi-variational inequality of evolution with a first order quasilinear operator and a variable convex set which is characterized by a constraint on the absolute value of the gradient that depends on the solution itself. The only required assumption on the nonlinearity of this constraint is its continuity and positivity. The method relies on an appropriate parabolic regularization and suitable a priori estimates. We also obtain the existence of stationary solutions by studying the asymptotic behaviour in time. In the variational case, corresponding to a constraint independent of the solution, we also give uniqueness results.     

Exponential Mixing for 2D Navier-Stokes Equations Perturbed by an Unbounded Noise

The paper is devoted to the problem of mixing for two-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations perturbed by an unbounded kick force. We develop the coupling approach suggested in [16] to show that any solution exponentially converges to the stationary measure in the dual Lipschitz norm. This property complements some earlier results established in [15] for the same model.

Large-Amplitude Periodic Solutions for Differential Equations with Delayed Monotone Positive Feedback

The aim of this paper is to show that the structure of the global attractor for delayed monotone positive feedback can be more complicated than the union of spindle-like structures between consecutive stable equilibria with respect to the pointwise ordering. Large amplitude periodic orbits—in the sense that they are not between two consecutive stable equilibria—are constructed for nonlinearities close to a step function. For some nonlinearities there are exactly two large amplitude periodic orbits. By describing the unstable sets of these periodic orbits, a complete picture is obtained about the global attractor outside the spindle-like structures.     

Gevrey Regularity for Nonlinear Analytic Parabolic Equations on the Sphere

The regularity of solutions to a large class of analytic nonlinear parabolic equations on the two-dimensional sphere is considered. In particular, it is shown that these solutions belong to a certain Gevrey class of functions, which is a subset of the set of real analytic functions. As a consequence it can be shown that the Galerkin schemes, based on the spherical harmonics, converge exponentially fast to the exact solutions, as the number of modes involved in the approximation tends to infinity. Furthermore, in the case that the underlying evolution equation has a global attractor, then this global attractor is contained in the space of spatially real analytic functions whose radii of analyticity are bounded uniformly from below.     

Delay Equations with Rapidly Oscillating Stable Periodic Solutions

We prove analytically that there exist delay equations admitting rapidly oscillating stable periodic solutions. Previous results were obtained with the aid of computers, only for particular feedback functions. Our proofs work for stiff equations with several classes of feedback functions. Moreover, we prove that for negative feedback there exists a class of feedback functions such that the larger the stiffness parameter is, the more stable rapidly oscillating periodic solutions there are. There are stable periodic solutions with arbitrarily many zeros per unit time interval if the stiffness parameter is chosen sufficiently large.     

Concentration of Solutions for Some Singularly Perturbed Mixed Problems: Existence Results

In this paper,we study the asymptotic behavior of some solutions to a singularly perturbed problem with mixed Dirichlet and Neumann boundary conditions. We prove that, under suitable geometric conditions on the boundary of the domain, there exist solutions which approach the intersection of the Neumann and the Dirichlet parts as the singular perturbation parameter tends to zero.     

Uniform Exponential Dichotomy and Continuity of Attractors for Singularly Perturbed Damped Wave Equations

For , we consider a family of damped wave equations , where − Λ denotes the Laplacian with zero Dirichlet boundary condition in L ²(Ω). For a dissipative nonlinearity f satisfying a suitable growth restrictions these equations define on the phase space semigroups which have global attractors A _η, . We show that the family , behaves upper and lower semicontinuously as the parameter η tends to 0⁺.     

Solutions of Euler-Poisson Equations¶for Gaseous Stars

In this paper, we study the Euler-Poisson equations governing gas motion under self-gravitational force. We are interested in the evolution of the gaseous stars, for which the density function has compact support. We establish existence theory for the stationary solutions and describe the behavior of the solutions near the vacuum boundary. The boundary behavior thus obtained agrees with the physical boundary condition proposed and studied in [L, LY] for both Euler equations with damping and the Euler-Poisson equations. Existence, non-existence, uniqueness and instability of the stationary solutions with vacuum are also discussed in terms of the adiabatic exponent and the entropy function. And the phenomena of the blowup, that is, the collapsing of the star to a single point with finite mass, as well as the drifting of part of the star to infinity in space are also studied and shown to agree with the conjecture from the physical considerations.
