Immediate regularization of measure-type population densities in a two-dimensional chemotaxis system with signal consumption

This paper deals with the Neumann initial-boundary value problem for a classical chemotaxis system with signal consumption in a disk.In contrast to previous studies which have established a comprehensive theory of global classical solutions for suitably regular nonnegative initial data,the focus in the present work is on the question to which extent initially prescribed singularities can be regularized despite the presence of the nonlinear cross-diffusive interaction.The main result in this paper asserts that at least in the framework of radial solutions immediate regularization occurs under an essentially optimal condition on the initial distribution of the population density.More precisely,it will turn out that for any radially symmetric initial data belonging to the space of regular signed Borel measures for the population density and to L² for the signal density,there exists a classical solution to the Neumann initial-boundary value problem,which is smooth and approaches the given initial data in an appropriate trace sense.

THE NAVIER-STOKES EQUATIONS WITH THE KINEMATIC AND VORTICITY BOUNDARY CONDITIONS ON NON-FLAT BOUNDARIES

We study the initial-boundary value problem of the Navier-Stokes equations for incompressible fluids in a general domain in R^n with compact and smooth boundary, subject to the kinematic and vorticity boundary conditions on the non-flat boundary. We observe that, under the nonhomogeneous boundary conditions, the pressure p can be still recovered by solving the Neumann problem for the Poisson equation. Then we establish the well-posedness of the unsteady Stokes equations and employ the solution to reduce our initial-boundary value problem into an initial-boundary value problem with absolute boundary conditions. Based on this, we first establish the well-posedness for an appropriate local linearized problem with the absolute boundary conditions and the initial condition （without the incompressibility condition）, which establishes a velocity mapping. Then we develop apriori estimates for the velocity mapping, especially involving the Sobolev norm for the time-derivative of the mapping to deal with the complicated boundary conditions, which leads to the existence of the fixed point of the mapping and the existence of solutions to our initial-boundary value problem. Finally, we establish that, when the viscosity coefficient tends zero, the strong solutions of the initial-boundary value problem in R^n（n ≥ 3） with nonhomogeneous vorticity boundary condition converge in L^2 to the corresponding Euler equations satisfying the kinematic condition.     

On the global existence and uniqueness of solutions to the nonstationary boundary layer system

In this paper, we study the problem of boundary layer for nonstationary flows of viscous incompressible fluids. There are some open problems in the field of boundary layer. The method used here is mainly based on a transformation which reduces the boundary layer system to an initial-boundary value problem for a single quasilinear parabolic equation. We prove the existence of weak solutions to the modified nonstationary boundary layer system. Moreover, the stability and uniqueness of weak solutions are discussed.     

Long-time asymptotics for the initial-boundary value problem of coupled Hirota equation on the half-line

The object of this work is to investigate the initial-boundary value problem for coupled Hirota equation on the half-line.We show that the solution of the coupled Hirota equation can be expressed in terms of the solution of a 3×3 matrix Riemann-Hilbert problem formulated in the complex k-plane.The relevant jump matrices are explicitly given in terms of the matrix-valued spectral functions s(k)and S(k)that depend on the initial data and boundary values,respectively.Then,applying nonlinear steepest descent techniques to the associated 3×3 matrix-valued Riemann-Hilbert problem,we can give the precise leading-order asymptotic formulas and uniform error estimates for the solution of the coupled Hirota equation.     

A Time-dependent Interaction Problem Between an Electromagnetic Field and an Elastic Body

This paper considers the scattering of a time-dependent electromagnetic plane wave by a bounded elastic body.An appropriate decomposition of the coupling interface conditions is proposed according to the Voigt’s model between the electromagnetic and elastic medium.The original unbounded scattering problem is equivalently reduced into an initial-boundary value problem in a bounded domain by introducing an exact transparent boundary condition(TBC)on a sufficiently large sphere.Making use of the Lax-Milgram lemma,the abstract inversion theorem of Laplace transform and the energy method,we verify the well-posedness and stability for the reduced problem.Moreover,a priori estimates are established for the electromagnetic field and elastic displacement by taking special test functions directly in the time domain variational formulation.

Finite difference method and its convergent error analyses for thermistor problem

The thermistor problem is an initial-boundary value problem of coupled nonlinear differential equations. The nonlinear PDEs consist of a heat equation with the Joule heating as asource and a current conservation equation with temperature-dopendent electrical conductivity.This problem has important opplicatioJls in industry. In this paper, A new finite differencescheme is proposed on nonuniform rectangular partition for the thermistor problem. In the theo-retical analyses,the second-order error estimates are obtained for electrical potential in discrete L^2 and H^1 norms,and for the temperature in L^2 norm. In order to get these second-order errorestimates,the Joule heating source is used in a changed equivalent form.

Asymptotic Stability of Equilibrium State to the Mixed Initial-Boundary Value Problem for Quasilinear Hyperbolic Systems

Under the internal dissipative condition, the Cauchy problem for inhomogeneous quasilinear hyperbolic systems with small initial data admits a unique global C1 solution, which exponentially decays to zero as t → +∞, while if the coefficient matrixΘ of boundary conditions satisfies the boundary dissipative condition, the mixed initialboundary value problem with small initial data for quasilinear hyperbolic systems with nonlinear terms of at least second order admits a unique global C1 solution, which also exponentially decays to zero as t → +∞. In this paper, under more general conditions, the authors investigate the combined effect of the internal dissipative condition and the boundary dissipative condition, and prove the global existence and exponential decay of the C1 solution to the mixed initial-boundary value problem for quasilinear hyperbolic systems with small initial data. This stability result is applied to a kind of models, and an example is given to show the possible exponential instability if the corresponding conditions are not satisfied.

Reconstruction of the Linear Ordinary Differential System Based on Discrete Points

In this paper, we discuss an inverse problem, i.e., the reconstruction of a linear differential dynamic system from the given discrete data of the solution. We propose a model and a corresponding algorithm to recover the coefficient matrix of the differential system based on the normal vectors from the given discrete points, in order to avoid the problem of parameterization in curve fitting and approximation. We also give some theoretical analysis on our algorithm. When the data points are taken from the solution curve and the set composed of these data points is not degenerate, the coefficient matrix $A$ reconstructed by our algorithm is unique from the given discrete and noisefree data. We discuss the error bounds for the approximate coefficient matrix and the solution which are reconstructed by our algorithm. Numerical examples demonstrate the effectiveness of the algorithm.

On the blowing up of solutions to one-dimensional quantum Navier-Stokes equations

The blow-up in finite time for the solutions to the initial-boundary value problem associated to the one-dimensional quantum Navier-Stokes equations in a bounded domain is proved. The model consists of the mass conservation equation and a momentum balance equation, including a nonlinear third-order differen- tial operator, with the quantum Bohm potential, and a density-dependent viscosity. It is shown that, under suitable boundary conditions and assumptions on the initial data, the solution blows up after a finite time, if the viscosity constant is not bigger than the scaled Planck constant. The proof is inspired by an observable constructed by Gamba, Gualdani and Zhang, which has been used to study the blowing up of solutions to quantum hydrodynamic models.
