Remarks on Sharp Interface Limit for an Incompressible Navier-Stokes and Allen-Cahn Coupled System*

The authors are concerned with the sharp interface limit for an incompressible Navier-Stokes and Allen-Cahn coupled system in this paper. When the thickness of the diffuse interfacial zone, which is parameterized by ε, goes to zero, they prove that a solution of the incompressible Navier-Stokes and Allen-Cahn coupled system converges to a solution of a sharp interface model in the L^∞(L²) ∩ L²(H¹) sense on a uniform time interval independent of the smal...     

Vanishing viscosity limit for a coupled Navier-Stokes/Allen-Cahn system

In this paper, we study the vanishing viscosity limit for a coupled Navier-Stokes/Allen-Cahn system in a bounded domain. We first show the local existence of smooth solutions of the Euler/Allen-Cahn equations by modified Galerkin method. Then using the boundary layer function to deal with the mismatch of the boundary conditions between Navier-Stokes and Euler equations, and assuming that the energy dissipation for Navier-Stokes equation in the boundary layer goes to zero as the viscosity tends to zero, we prove that the solutions of the Navier-Stokes/Allen-Cahn system converge to that of the Euler/Allen-Cahn system in a proper small time interval. In addition, for strong solutions of the Navier-Stokes/Allen-Cahn system in 2D, the convergence rate is cν1/2.

Time-Periodic Solution to the Compressible Navier–Stokes/Allen–Cahn System

In this paper,we investigate the time-periodic solution to a coupled compressible Navier–Stokes/Allen–Cahn system which describes the motion of a mixture of two viscous compressible fluids with a time periodic external force in a periodic domain in R^N.The existence of the time-periodic solution to the system is established by using an approach of parabolic regularization and combining with the topology degree theory,and then the uniqueness of the period solution is obtained under some smallness and symmetry assumptions on the external force.     

Rarefaction Wave Interaction and Shock-Rarefaction Composite Wave Interaction for a Two-Dimensional Nonlinear Wave System

In order to construct global solutions to two-dimensional(2 D for short)Riemann problems for nonlinear hyperbolic systems of conservation laws,it is important to study various types of wave interactions.This paper deals with two types of wave interactions for a 2 D nonlinear wave system with a nonconvex equation of state:Rarefaction wave interaction and shock-rarefaction composite wave interaction.In order to construct solutions to these wave interactions,the authors consider two types of Goursat problems,including standard Goursat problem and discontinuous Goursat problem,for a 2 D selfsimilar nonlinear wave system.Global classical solutions to these Goursat problems are obtained by the method of characteristics.The solutions constructed in the paper may be used as building blocks of solutions of 2 D Riemann problems.     

Stability of boundary layer and rarefaction wave to an outflow problem for compressible Navier-Stokes equations under large perturbation

In this paper, we investigate the large-time behavior of solutions to an outflow problem for compressible Navier-Stokes equations. In 2003, Kawashima, Nishibata and Zhu [S. Kawashima, S. Nishibata, P. Zhu, Asymptotic stability of the stationary solution to the compressible Navier-Stokes equations in the half space, Comm. Math. Phys. 240 (2003) 483-500] showed there exists a boundary layer (i.e., stationary solution) to the outflow problem and the boundary layer is nonlinearly stable under small initial perturbation. In the present paper, we show that not only the boundary layer above but also the superposition of a boundary layer and a rarefaction wave are stable under large initial perturbation. The proofs are given by an elementary energy method.     

On Geometric Realization of the General Manakov System*

Stability of Rarefaction Wave to the 1-D Piston Problem for the Pressure-Gradient Equations

The 1-D piston problem for the pressure gradient equations arising from the flux-splitting of the compressible Euler equations is considered. When the total variations of the initial data and the velocity of the piston are both sufficiently small, the author establishes the global existence of entropy solutions including a strong rarefaction wave without restriction on the strength by employing a modified wave front tracking method.     

The Inviscid Limit for the Steady Incompressible Navier-Stokes Equations in the Three Dimension*

In this paper, the authors consider the zero-viscosity limit of the three dimensional incompressible steady Navier-Stokes equations in a half space R⁺×R². The result shows that the solution of three dimensional incompressible steady Navier-Stokes equations converges to the solution of three dimensional incompressible steady Euler equations in Sobolev space as the viscosity coefficient going to zero. The method is based on a new weighted energy estimates and Nash-Moser itera...     

Existence and global stability of traveling curved fronts in the Allen-Cahn equations

This paper is concerned with existence and stability of traveling curved fronts for the Allen-Cahn equation in the two-dimensional space. By using the supersolution and the subsolution, we construct a traveling curved front, and show that it is the unique traveling wave solution between them. Our supersolution can be taken arbitrarily large, which implies some global asymptotic stability for the traveling curved front.     

Boundary Layers Associated with a Coupled Navier-Stokes/Allem-Cahn System: the Non-characteristic Boundary Case

The goal of this article is to study the boundary layer of Navier-Stokes/Allen- Cahn system in a channel at small viscosity. We prove that there exists a boundary layer at the outlet (down-wind) of thickness n, where n is the kinematic viscosity. The convergence in L^2 of the solutions of the Navier-Stokes/Allen-Cahn equations to that of the Euler/Allen-Cahn equations at the vanishing viscosity was established. In two dimensional case we are able to derive the physically relevant uniform in space and time estimates, which is derived by the idea of better control on the tangential derivative and the use of an anisotropic Sobolve imbedding.

Exact Boundary Synchronization by Groups for a Kind of System of Wave Equations Coupled with Velocities*

This paper deals with the exact boundary controllability and the exact boundary synchronization for a 1-D system of wave equations coupled with velocities. These problems can not be solved directly by the usual HUM method for wave equations, however, by transforming the system into a first order hyperbolic system, the HUM method for 1-D first order hyperbolic systems, established by Li-Lu(2022) and Lu-Li(2022), can be applied to get the corresponding results.     

Stability of Rotation Relations of Three Unitaries with the Flip Action in C*-Algebras*

The authors show that if Θ = (θ_jk) is a 3 × 3 totally irrational real skewsymmetric matrix, where θ_jk ∈ [0, 1) for j, k = 1, 2, 3, then for any ε > 0, there exists δ > 0 satisfying the following: For any unital C^*-algebra A with the cancellation property,strict comparison and nonempty tracial state space, any four unitaries u₁, u₂, u₃, w ∈ A such that (1) u_ku_j - e^{2πiθjk ujukk} < δ, wu_jw^-1 = u^-1_j, w² = 1_A for j, k = 1, 2, 3; (2)τ (aw) = 0 and τ ((u_ku_ju_k^*u_j^* )ⁿ ) = e^2πinθjk for all n ∈ N, all a ∈ C^*(u₁, u₂, u₃), j, k = 1, 2, 3 and all tracial states τ on A, where C^*(u₁, u₂, u₃) is the C^*-subalgebra generated by u₁, u₂ and u₃, there exists a 4-tuple of unitaries u₁, u₂, u₃, w in A such that u_ku_j = e^2πinθjk u_ku_j, w u_j w^-1 = u^-1 _j, w² = 1A and k u_j - u_jk < ε, k w - wk < ε for j, k = 1, 2, 3. The above conclusion is also called that the rotation relations of three unitaries with the flip action is stable under the above conditions.

In this paper, the authors prove an analogue of Gibbons' conjecture for the extended fourth order Allen-Cahn equation in R~N, as well as Liouville type results for some solutions converging to the same value at infinity in a given direction. The authors also prove a priori bounds and further one-dimensional symmetry and rigidity results for semilinear fourth order elliptic equations with more general nonlinearities.     

An Interaction of a Rarefaction Wave and a Transonic Shock for the Self-Similar Two-Dimensional Nonlinear Wave System

We study a two dimensional Riemann problem for the self-similar nonlinear wave system which gives rise to an interaction of a transonic shock and a rarefaction wave. The interesting feature of this problem is that the governing equation changes its type from supersonic in the far field to subsonic near the origin. The subsonic region is then bounded above by the sonic line (degenerate) and below by the transonic shock (free boundary). Furthermore due to the rarefaction wave in the downstream, which interacts with the transonic shock, the problem becomes inhomogeneous and degenerate. We establish the existence result of the global solution to this configuration, and present analysis to understand the solution structure of this problem.

On the convergence of a fourth order evolution equation to the Allen-Cahn equation

We construct special sequences of solutions to a fourth order nonlinear parabolic equation of Cahn-Hilliard/Allen-Cahn type, converging to the second order Allen-Cahn equation. We consider the evolution equation without boundary, as well as the stationary case on domains with Dirichlet boundary conditions. The proofs exploit the equivalence of the fourth order equation with a system of two second order elliptic equations with “good signs”.
