We study global existence of solutions for the Cauchy problem of the nonlinear Schrödinger equation iut+Δu=|u|^2mu in the 2 dimension case, where m is a positive integer, m?2. Using the high-low frequency decomposition method, we prove that if then for any initial value φ∈Hs(R²), the Cauchy problem has a global solution in C(R,Hs(R²)), and it can be split into u(t)=eitΔφ+y(t), with y∈C(R,H¹(R²)) satisfying , where ? is an arbitrary sufficiently small positive number.

We show the existence and uniqueness of classical solutions to the initial value problem of the generalized Burgers equation with rough initial data belonging to , as well it is obtained the decay rates of u in L^p norm are algebra order for p∈[1,∞[.     

Positive solutions for some Schrödinger equations having partially periodic potentials

This paper is concerned with the problem of finding positive solutions of the equation −Δu+(a_∞+a(x))u=|u|^q−2u, where q is subcritical, Ω is either RN or an unbounded domain which is periodic in the first p coordinates and whose complement is contained in a cylinder , a_∞>0, a∈C(RN,R) is periodic in the first p coordinates, infx∈RN(a_∞+a(x))>0 and a(x^′,x^″)→0 as |x^″|→∞ uniformly in x^′. The cases a?0 and a?0 are considered and it is shown that, under appropriate assumptions on a, the problem has one solution in the first case and p+1 solutions in the second case when p?N−2.

A priori bounds and complete blow-up of positive solutions of indefinite superlinear parabolic problems

We study a priori estimates of positive solutions of the equation t_∂u−Δu=λu+a(x)up, x∈Ω, t>0, satisfying the homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions. Here Ω is a bounded domain in Rn, λ∈R, p>1 is subcritical, changes sign and a,p satisfy some additional technical hypotheses. Assume that the solution u blows up in a finite time T and the set is connected. Using our a priori bounds, we show that u blows up completely in Ω⁺ at t=T and the blow-up time T depends continuously on the initial data.

Blowup of solutions for improved Boussinesq type equation

The paper studies the existence and uniqueness of local solutions and the blowup of solutions to the initial boundary value problem for improved Boussinesq type equation u_tt−u_xx−u_xxtt=σ(u)_xx. By a Galerkin approximation scheme combined with the continuation of solutions step by step and the Fourier transform method, it proves that under rather mild conditions on initial data, the above-mentioned problem admits a unique generalized solution u∈W^2,∞([0,T];H²(0,1)) as long as . In particular, when σ(s)=as^p, where a≠0 is a real number and p>1 is an integer, specially a<0 if p is an odd number, the solution blows up in finite time. Moreover, two examples of blowup are obtained numerically.     

Global solutions and blow-up phenomena to a shallow water equation

A nonlinear shallow water equation, which includes the famous Camassa-Holm (CH) and Degasperis-Procesi (DP) equations as special cases, is investigated. The local well-posedness of solutions for the nonlinear equation in the Sobolev space Hs(R) with is developed. Provided that does not change sign, u₀∈Hs () and u₀∈L¹(R), the existence and uniqueness of the global solutions to the equation are shown to be true in u(t,x)∈C([0,∞);Hs(R))∩C¹([0,∞);Hs−1(R)). Conditions that lead to the development of singularities in finite time for the solutions are also acquired.

Finally, the weak solution for the equation is considered.     

Existence and multiplicity of solutions for fourth-order boundary value problems with parameters

In this paper we study the existence and multiplicity of the solutions for the fourth-order boundary value problem (BVP) u(4)(t)+ηu^″(t)−ζu(t)=λf(t,u(t)), 0<t<1, u(0)=u(1)=u^″(0)=u^″(1)=0, where is continuous, ζ,η∈R and λ∈R⁺ are parameters. By means of the idea of the decomposition of operators shown by Chen [W.Y. Chen, A decomposition problem for operators, Xuebao of Dongbei Renmin University 1 (1957) 95-98], see also [M. Krasnosel'skii, Topological Methods in the Theory of Nonlinear Integral Equations, Gostehizdat, Moscow, 1956], and the critical point theory, we obtain that if the pair (η,ζ) is on the curve ζ=−η²/4 satisfying η<2π², then the above BVP has at least one, two, three, and infinitely many solutions for λ being in different interval, respectively.     

Maximum principles for bounded solutions of the telegraph equation in space dimensions two and three and applications

A maximum principle is proved for the weak solutions of the telegraph equation in space dimension three u_tt−Δ_xu+cu_t+λu=f(t,x), when c>0, λ∈(0,c²/4] and (Theorem 1). The result is extended to a solution and a forcing belonging to a suitable space of bounded measures (Theorem 2). Those results provide a method of upper and lower solutions for the semilinear equation u_tt−Δ_xu+cu_t=F(t,x,u). Also, they can be employed in the study of almost periodic solutions of the forced sine-Gordon equation. A counterexample for the maximum principle in dimension four is given.     

Blow-up behavior for a nonlinear heat equation with a localized source in a ball

In this paper, we consider the initial-boundary value problem of a semilinear parabolic equation with local and non-local (localized) reactions in a ball: u_t=Δu+u^p+u^q(x^*,t) in B(R) where p,q>0,B(R)={x∈R^N:|x|<R} and x^*≠0. If max(p,q)>1, there exist blow-up solutions of this problem for large initial data. We treat the radially symmetric and one peak non-negative solution of this problem. We give the complete classification of total blow-up phenomena and single point blow-up phenomena according to p and q.

(i)

If or p=q>2, then single point blow-up occurs whenever solutions blow up.

(ii)

If 1<p<q, both phenomena, total blow-up and single point blow-up, occur depending on the initial data.

(iii)

If p?1<q, total blow-up occurs whenever solutions blow up.

(iv)

If max(p,q)?1, every solution exists globally in time.
