New Bounds for the Inhomogenous Burgers and the Kuramoto-Sivashinsky Equations

We give a substantially simplified proof of the near-optimal estimate on the Kuramoto-Sivashinsky equation from a previous paper of the third author, at the same time slightly improving the result. That result relied on two ingredients: a regularity estimate for capillary Burgers and an a novel priori estimate for the inhomogeneous inviscid Burgers equation, which works out that in many ways the conservative transport nonlinearity acts as a coercive term. It is the proof of the second ingredient that we substantially simplify by proving a modified Kármán-Howarth-Monin identity for solutions of the inhomogeneous inviscid Burgers equation. We show that this provides a new interpretation of recent results obtained by Golse and Perthame.     

Painlev\'{e} Analysis and Auto-B\"{a}cklund Transformation for a General Variable Coefficient Burgers Equation with Linear Damping Term

This paper investigates a general variable coefficient (gVC) Burgers equation with linear damping term. We derive the Painlev\''{e} property of the equation under certain constraint condition of the coefficients. Then we obtain an auto-B\"{a}cklund transformation of this equation in terms of the Painlev\''{e} property. Finally, we find a large number of new explicit exact solutions of the equation. Especially, infinite explicit exact singular wave solutions are obtained for the first time. It is worth noting that these singular wave solutions will blow up on some lines or curves in the $(x,t)$ plane. These facts reflect the complexity of the structure of the solution of the gVC Burgers equation with linear damping term. It also reflects the complexity of nonlinear wave propagation in fluid from one aspect.     

The Singular Structure of Non-selfsimilar Global Solutions of n Dimensional Burgers Equation

We investigate the singular structure for n dimensional non-selfsimilar global solutions and interaction of non-selfsimilar elementary wave of n dimensional Burgers equation, where the initial discontinuity is a n dimensional smooth surface and initial data just contain two different constant states, global solutions and some new phenomena are discovered. An elegant technique is proposed to construct n dimensional shock wave without dimensional reduction or coordinate transformation.     

Stochastic stability of Burgers equation

The current paper is devoted to stochastic Burgers equation with driving forcing given by white noise type in time and periodic in space. Motivated by the numerical results of Hairer and Voss, we prove that the Burgers equation is stochastic stable in the sense that statistically steady regimes of fluid flows of stochastic Burgers equation converge to that of determinstic Burgers equation as noise tends to zero.     

New exact traveling and non-traveling wave solutions for (2 + 1)-dimensional Burgers equation

In this paper, some novel solitary wave solutions, including solitary-like wave solution, x-periodic soliton solution, y-periodic soliton solution, doubly periodic solution, rational solution, and new non-traveling wave solution, are obtained for (2 + 1)-dimensional Burgers equation by means of the generalized direct ansätz method and different test functions.

Multiple kink solutions for M-component Burgers equations in (1+1)-dimensions and (2+1)-dimensions

M-component Burgers equations in (1+1)-dimensions and (2+1)-dimensions are examined for complete integrability. The Cole-Hopf transformation method and the simplified form of Hereman’s method are used to achieve this goal. Multiple kink solutions and multiple singular kink solutions are formally derived for each vector equation.     

Global existence, singularities and ill-posedness for a nonlocal flux

In this paper we study a one-dimensional model equation with a nonlocal flux given by the Hilbert transform that is related with the complex inviscid Burgers equation. This equation arises in different contexts to characterize nonlocal and nonlinear behaviors. We show global existence, local existence, blow-up in finite time and ill-posedness depending on the sign of the initial data for classical solutions.     

Remarks on global controllability for the Burgers equation with two control forces

In this paper we deal with the viscous Burgers equation. We study the exact controllability properties of this equation with general initial condition when the boundary control is acting at both endpoints of the interval. In a first result, we prove that the global exact null controllability does not hold for small time. In a second one, we prove that the exact controllability result does not hold even for large time.     

VISCOSITY METHOD OF A NON－HOMOGENEOUS BURGERS EQUATION

Abstract In [1], Ding et al. studied the nonhomogeneous Burgers equation ut uux = μuxx 4x.(1.1) This paper will prove that when μ → 0 the solution of (1.1) will approach the generalized solution of ut uux = 4x.(1.2) The authors notice that the equation (1.2) is beyond the scope of investigations by Oleinik O. in [2]. The solutions here are unbounded in general. The paper also studies the δ-wave phenomenon when (1.2) is jointed with some other equation.

CTE method to the interaction solutions of Boussinesq–Burgers equations

Under investigation in this paper is the Boussinesq–Burgers equations, which describe the propagation of shallow water waves. Via the truncated Painlevé analysis and the consistent tanh expansion (CTE) method, some exact interaction solutions among different nonlinear excitations such as multiple resonant soliton solutions, soliton–error function waves, soliton–periodic waves, soliton–rational waves, and soliton–potential Burgers waves are explicitly given.     

Unifying the steady state resonant solutions of the periodically forced KdVB, mKdVB, and eKdVB equations

The periodically forced extended KdVB (eKdVB) equation, which contains both KdVB and modified KdVB (mKdVB) equations as special cases, is known to possess a rich array of resonant steady solutions. We present an analytic methodology based on singular perturbation and asymptotic matching in order to illustrate and approximate these solutions in the limit that the dispersive effects are small relative to the nonlinear and forcing terms. Weak Burgers damping is also included at the same order as dispersion. Solutions across the resonant band may be constructed and show good agreement with solutions of the full equation, showing clearly the role of the various physical effects. In this way, direct comparisons and connections are made between the various classes of KdVB equations, illustrating, in particular, the underlying mathematical connections between the KdVB and mKdVB equations.     

Distributional products and global solutions for nonconservative inviscid Burgers equation

Burgers equation for inviscid fluids is a simplified case of Navier-Stokes equation which corresponds to Euler equation for ideal fluids. Thus, from a variational viewpoint, Burgers equation appears naturally in its nonconservative form. In this form, a consistent concept of a weak solution cannot be formulated because the classical distribution theory has no products which account for the term u(∂u/∂x). This leads several authors to substitute Burgers equation by the so-called conservative form, where one has in distributional sense. In this paper we will treat nonconservative inviscid Burgers equation and study it with the help of our theory of products; also, the relationship with the conservative Burgers equation is considered. In particular, we will be able to exhibit a Dirac-δ travelling soliton solution in the sense of global α-solution. Applying our concepts, solutions which are functions with jump discontinuities can also be obtained and a jump condition is derived. When we replace the concept of global α-solution by the concept of global strong solution, this jump condition coincides with the well-known Rankine-Hugoniot jump condition for the conservative Burgers equation. For travelling waves functions these concepts are all equivalent.

Burgers and Kadomtsev-Petviashvili hierarchies: A functional representation approach

Functional representations of (matrix) Burgers and potential Kadomtsev-Petviashvili (pKP) hierarchies (and others), as well as some corresponding Bäcklund transformations, can be obtained surprisingly simply from a “discrete” functional zero-curvature equation. We use these representations to show that any solution of a Burgers hierarchy is also a solution of the pKP hierarchy. Moreover, the pKP hierarchy can be expressed in the form of an inhomogeneous Burgers hierarchy. In particular, this leads to an extension of the Cole-Hopf transformation to the pKP hierarchy. Furthermore, these hierarchies are solved by the solutions of certain functional Riccati equations.     

Multiple-front solutions for the Burgers equation and the coupled Burgers equations

Strong convergence for explicit space–time discrete numerical approximation methods for stochastic Burgers equations

In this paper we propose and analyze explicit space–time discrete numerical approximations for additive space–time white noise driven stochastic partial differential equations (SPDEs) with non-globally monotone nonlinearities such as the stochastic Burgers equation with space–time white noise. The main result of this paper proves that the proposed explicit space–time discrete approximation method converges strongly to the solution process of the stochastic Burgers equation with space–time white noise. To the best of our knowledge, the main result of this work is the first result in the literature which establishes strong convergence for a space–time discrete approximation method in the case of the stochastic Burgers equations with space–time white noise.
