. We prove local in time existence theorems of solutions of the Cauchy problem for the Yang-Mills system in temporal gauge, with current generated by a distribution function that satisfies a Vlasov equation, and an unknown non-abelian charge density subject to a conservation equation.     

The Vlasov–Poisson–Fokker–Planck equation in an interval with kinetic absorbing boundary conditions

We study the initial–boundary value problem for the Vlasov–Poisson–Fokker–Planck equations in an interval with absorbing boundary conditions. We first prove the existence of weak solutions of the linearized equation in an interval with absorbing boundary conditions. Moreover, the weak solution converges to zero exponentially in time. Then we extend the above results to the fully nonlinear Vlasov–Poisson–Fokker–Planck equations in an interval with absorbing boundary conditions; the existence and the longtime behavior of weak solutions. Finally, we prove that the weak solution is actually a classical solution by showing the hypoellipticity of the solution away from the grazing set and the Hölder continuity of the solution up to the grazing set.     

A nonlocal problem for a mixed-type equation whose order degenerates along the line of change of type

We consider a mixed-type equation whose order degenerates along the line of change of type. For this equation we study the unique solvability of a nonlocal problem with the Saigo operators in the boundary condition. We prove the uniqueness theorem under certain conditions (stated as inequalities) on known functions. To prove the existence of solution to the problem, we equivalently reduce it to a singular integral equation with the Cauchy kernel. We establish a condition ensuring the existence of a regularizer which reduces the obtained equation to a Fredholm equation of the second kind, whose unique solvability follows from that of the problem.     

A half-space problem for a non-linear Boltzmann equation arising in semiconductor statistics

In semiconductors the distributions of electrons satisfy a non-linear Boltzmann–Vlasov equation. We consider the half-space problem arising in the study of boundary layers when the mean free path tends to zero. We prove the existence and the uniqueness of the solution for any prescribed entering distribution. We establish that this solution tends towards a Fermi–Dirac distribution exponentially fast.     

The cauchy problem for a shallow water type equation

We prove existence and uniqueness of local and global solutions of the periodic Cauchy problem for a higher order shallow water type equation under low regularity initial data. Using Fourier analysis we first prove local estimates in appropriate spaces and then use a contraction mapping argument and a conserved norm to get global existence.     

Existence,Uniqueness and Asymptotic Behavior for the Vlasov–Poisson System with Radiation Damping

We investigate the Cauchy problem for the Vlasov–Poisson system with radiation damping.By virtue of energy estimate and a refined velocity average lemma, we establish the global existence of nonnegative weak solution and asymptotic behavior under the condition that initial data have finite mass and energy. Furthermore, by building a Gronwall inequality about the distance between the Lagrangian flows associated to the weak solutions, we can prove the uniqueness of weak solution when the initial data have a higher order velocity moment.     

Global weak solutions to the Cauchy problem of compressible Navier–Stokes–Vlasov–Fokker–Planck equations

A fluid–particles system of the compressible Navier‐Stokes equations and Vlasov‐Fokker‐Planck equation (including the case of Vlasov equation) in three‐dimensional space is considered in this paper. The coupling arises from a drag force exerted by the fluid onto the particles. We study a Cauchy problem with large data, and establish the existence of global weak solutions through an approximation scheme, energy estimates, and weak convergence.

Global existence for the Vlasov-Poisson/Fokker-Planck equation in many dimensions,for small data

A global existence result for the Cauchy problem of the Vlasov equation with a diffusive term is given. Smallness of the initial data is needed to show, via a ‘dispersive’ argument, the existence and nearness of the solution to the free one.     

$L^p$ estimates for the linear wave equation and global existence for semilinear wave equations in exterior domains

We consider the initial-boundary value problem for the semilinear wave equation where is an exterior domain in , is a dissipative term which is effective only near the 'critical part' of the boundary. We first give some estimates for the linear equation by combining the results of the local energy decay and estimates for the Cauchy problem in the whole space. Next, on the basis of these estimates we prove global existence of small amplitude solutions for semilinear equations when is odd dimensional domain . When our result is applied if . We note that no geometrical condition on the boundary is imposed. Received April 13, 2000 / Revised July 6, 2000 / Published online February 5, 2001

On the three-dimensional finite Larmor radius approximation: The case of electrons in a fixed background of ions

This paper is concerned with the analysis of a mathematical model arising in plasma physics, more specifically in fusion research. It directly follows, Han-Kwan (2010) [18], where the three-dimensional analysis of a Vlasov–Poisson equation with finite Larmor radius scaling was led, corresponding to the case of ions with massless electrons whose density follows a linearized Maxwell–Boltzmann law. We now consider the case of electrons in a background of fixed ions, which was only sketched in Han-Kwan (2010) [18]. Unfortunately, there is evidence that the formal limit is false in general. Nevertheless, we formally derive from the Vlasov–Poisson equation a fluid system for particular monokinetic data. We prove the local in time existence of analytic solutions and rigorously study the limit (when the inverse of the intensity of the magnetic field and the Debye length vanish) to a new anisotropic fluid system. This is achieved thanks to Cauchy–Kovalevskaya type techniques, as introduced by Caflisch (1990) [7] and Grenier (1996) [14]. We finally show that this approach fails in Sobolev regularity, due to multi-fluid instabilities.     

Uniform asymptotics of the boundary values of the solution in a linear problem on the run-up of waves on a shallow beach

We consider the Cauchy problem with spatially localized initial data for a two-dimensional wave equation with variable velocity in a domain Ω. The velocity is assumed to degenerate on the boundary ?Ω of the domain as the square root of the distance to ?Ω. In particular, this problems describes the run-up of tsunami waves on a shallow beach in the linear approximation. Further, the problem contains a natural small parameter (the typical source-to-basin size ratio) and hence admits analysis by asymptotic methods. It was shown in the paper “Characteristics with singularities and the boundary values of the asymptotic solution of the Cauchy problem for a degenerate wave equation” [1] that the boundary values of the asymptotic solution of this problem given by a modified Maslov canonical operator on the Lagrangian manifold formed by the nonstandard characteristics associatedwith the problemcan be expressed via the canonical operator on a Lagrangian submanifold of the cotangent bundle of the boundary. However, the problem as to how this restriction is related to the boundary values of the exact solution of the problem remained open. In the present paper, we show that if the initial perturbation is specified by a function rapidly decaying at infinity, then the restriction of such an asymptotic solution to the boundary gives the asymptotics of the boundary values of the exact solution in the uniform norm. To this end, we in particular prove a trace theorem for nonstandard Sobolev type spaces with degeneration at the boundary.     

Non‐linear singular integral equations on a finite interval

A class of nonlinear singular integral equations of Cauchy type on a finite interval is transformed to an equivalent class of (discontinuous) boundary value problems for holomorphic functions in the complex unit disk. Using recent results on the solvability of explicit Riemann–Hilbert problems, we prove the existence of solutions to the integral equation with bounded piecewise continuous nonlinearities. We discuss the influence of parameters and additional conditions and demonstrate the approach for a free boundary problem arising from seepage near a channel.

Initial–boundary value problems for conservation laws with source terms and the Degasperis–Procesi equation

We consider conservation laws with source terms in a bounded domain with Dirichlet boundary conditions. We first prove the existence of a strong trace at the boundary in order to provide a simple formulation of the entropy boundary condition. Equipped with this formulation, we go on to establish the well-posedness of entropy solutions to the initial–boundary value problem. The proof utilizes the kinetic formulation and the averaging lemma. Finally, we make use of these results to demonstrate the well-posedness in a class of discontinuous solutions to the initial–boundary value problem for the Degasperis–Procesi shallow water equation, which is a third order nonlinear dispersive equation that can be rewritten in the form of a nonlinear conservation law with a nonlocal source term.     

The Cauchy problem for non-autonomous nonlinear Schrdinger equations

In this paper we study the Cauchy problem for cubic nonlinear Schrodinger equation with space- and time-dependent coefficients on Rm and Tm. By an approximation argument we prove that for suitable initial values, the Cauchy problem admits unique local solutions. Global existence is discussed in the cases of m = 1,2.     

Solution of nonlinear stochastic equations with a generator of a semigroup discontinuous at zero

In this paper we study the Cauchy problem for a nonlinear stochastic equation with a generator of a semigroup discontinuous at zero.

Global weak solutions for the initial–boundary-value problems Vlasov–Poisson–Fokker–Planck System

This work is devoted to prove the existence of weak solutions of the kinetic Vlasov–Poisson–Fokker–Planck system in bounded domains for attractive or repulsive forces. Absorbing and reflection-type boundary conditions are considered for the kinetic equation and zero values for the potential on the boundary. The existence of weak solutions is proved for bounded and integrable initial and boundary data with finite energy. The main difficulty of this problem is to obtain an existence theory for the linear equation. This fact is analysed using a variational technique and the theory of elliptic–parabolic equations of second order. The proof of existence for the initial–boundary value problems is carried out following a procedure of regularization and linearization of the problem. © 1998 B. G.
