Exact solutions of one-dimensional nonlinear shallow water equations over even and sloping bottoms

We establish an equivalence of two systems of equations of one-dimensional shallow water models describing the propagation of surface waves over even and sloping bottoms. For each of these systems, we obtain formulas for the general form of their nondegenerate solutions, which are expressible in terms of solutions of the Darboux equation. The invariant solutions of the Darboux equation that we find are simplest representatives of its essentially different exact solutions (those not related by invertible point transformations). They depend on 21 arbitrary real constants; after “proliferation” formulas derived by methods of group theory analysis are applied, they generate a 27-parameter family of essentially different exact solutions. Subsequently using the derived infinitesimal “proliferation” formulas for the solutions in this family generates a denumerable set of exact solutions, whose linear span constitutes an infinite-dimensional vector space of solutions of the Darboux equation. This vector space of solutions of the Darboux equation and the general formulas for nondegenerate solutions of systems of shallow water equations with even and sloping bottoms give an infinite set of their solutions. The “proliferation” formulas for these systems determine their additional nondegenerate solutions. We also find all degenerate solutions of these systems and thus construct a database of an infinite set of exact solutions of systems of equations of the one-dimensional nonlinear shallow water model with even and sloping bottoms.

We prove regularity results for solutions of some nonlinear Dirichlet problems for an equation in the form

Existence of solutions for nonlinear elliptic degenerate equations

In this paper, we study the problem$\text{−div}\text{a(x,u,}\text{∇}\text{u)−div}\text{φ(u)+g(x,u)=f}\text{in}\text{Ω}$in the setting of the weighted sobolev space $\text{W}{}_0{}^{\mathrm{1,p}}\text{(Ω,ν)}$. The main novelty of our work is L^∞ estimates on the solutions, and the existence of a weak and renormalized solution.     

Asymptotics of families of solutions of nonlinear difference equations

One method to determine the asymptotics of particular solutions of a difference equation is by solving an associated asymptotic functional equation. Here we study the behaviour of the solutions in an asymptotic neighbourhood of such individual solutions. We identify several types of attraction and repulsion, which range from almost orthogonality to almost parallelness. Necessary and sufficient conditions for these types of behaviour are given.     

On the boundedness of solutions for degenerate nonlinear elliptic equations

We establish the boundedness of solutions of Dirichlet Problem for a class of degenerate nonlinear elliptic equations. To prove the result we follow a modification of Moser's method.     

Radon measure-valued solutions of nonlinear strongly degenerate parabolic equations

We prove the existence of suitably defined weak Radon measure-valued solutions of the homogeneous Dirichlet initial-boundary value problem for a class of strongly degenerate quasilinear parabolic equations. We also prove that: \((i)\) the concentrated part of the solution with respect to the Newtonian capacity is constant; \((ii)\) the total variation of the singular part of the solution (with respect to the Lebesgue measure) is nonincreasing in time. Conditions under which Radon measure-valued solutions of problem \((P)\) are in fact function-valued (depending both on the initial data and on the strength of degeneracy) are also given.     

Higher-dimensional nonlinear integrable equations: Asymptotics of solutions and perturbations

The survey is devoted to the study of solutions of (2 + 1)-dimensional (two spatial variables and time) integrable equations decreasing in spatial directions. As main representatives of these equations, the author considers the Kadomtsev-Petviashvili, Davey-Stewartson, and Ishimori equations.Translated from Sovremennaya Matematika i Ee Prilozheniya (Contemporary Mathematics and Its Applications), Vol. 5, Asymptotic Methods, 2003.

Verification of asymptotic solutions for one-dimensional nonlinear parabolic equations

The present article proves a result that is new for partial differential equations. According to this result, the solution of the Cauchy problem for a nonlinear parabolic equation with variable, slowly changing coefficients will turn into (asymptotically approach) a special asymptotic solution, either a solution or a kink, for high values of t.Translated from Matematicheskie Zametki, Vol. 52, No. 3, pp. 10–16, September, 1992.
