Cauchy problem for higher order p-evolution equations

We consider p  -evolution equations of order m?2$m?2$ in (t,x)$(t,x)$ with real characteristics. We give sufficient conditions for the well-posedness of the Cauchy problem in Sobolev spaces, in terms of decay estimates of the coefficients as the space variable x→∞$x\to \infty$.

Ultra-analytic effect of Cauchy problem for a class of kinetic equations

The smoothing effect of the Cauchy problem for a class of kinetic equations is studied. We firstly consider the spatially homogeneous nonlinear Landau equation with Maxwellian molecules and inhomogeneous linear Fokker-Planck equation to show the ultra-analytic effects of the Cauchy problem. Those smoothing effect results are optimal and similar to heat equation. In the second part, we study a model of spatially inhomogeneous linear Landau equation with Maxwellian molecules, and show the analytic effect of the Cauchy problem.     

Operators of p-evolution with nonregular coefficients in the time variable

We study the Cauchy problem for a class of p-evolution operators P(t,x,D_t,D_x) in , with less than coefficients with respect to the time variable.According to Lipschitz, log-lipschitz or Hölder regularity we find well-posedness in Sobolev spaces or in Gevrey classes.     

The Cauchy problem for nonlinear elliptic equations

This paper is devoted to investigation of the Cauchy problem for nonlinear equations with a small parameter. They are actually small perturbations of linear elliptic equations in which case the Cauchy problem is ill-posed. To study the Cauchy problem we invoke purely nonlinear methods, such as successive iterations and L^q$L^q$ Sobolev spaces with large q$q$. We also discuss linearisable problems.     

Cauchy problem for some non-Kovalewskian equations

Some evolution equations with constant leading coefficients and real characteristic roots are considered. The wellposedness of Cauchy problem is proved inH ^∞ and in Gevrey classes, if an assumption is made on the lower order terms. Finally the results are generalized to nonlinear equations.

Solutions with compact support to the Cauchy problem of an equation modeling the motion of viscous droplets

The Cauchy problem to an equation arising in modeling the motion of viscous droplets is studied in the present paper. The authors prove that if the initial data has compact support, then there exists a weak solution which has compact support for all the time.     

Regularity for p-harmonic equations with right-hand side in Orlicz-Zygmund classes

We establish regularity results for solutions of some degenerate elliptic PDEs, with right-hand side in a suitable Orlicz-Zygmund class. The nonnegative function which measures the degree of degeneracy of the ellipticity bounds is assumed to be exponentially integrable. We find that the scale of improved regularity is logarithmic and we indicate its exact dependence on the degree of the degeneracy of the problem.     

On the Cauchy problem for integro-differential operators in Sobolev classes and the martingale problem

The existence and uniqueness in Sobolev spaces of solutions of the Cauchy problem to parabolic integro-differential equation with variable coefficients of the order α∈(0,2)$\alpha \in (0,2)$ is investigated. The principal part of the operator has kernel m(t,x,y)/|y|^d+α$m(t,x,y)/{|y|}^{d+\alpha }$ with a bounded nondegenerate m, Hölder in x and measurable in y. The lower order part has bounded and measurable coefficients. The result is applied to prove the existence and uniqueness of the corresponding martingale problem.     

Wavelet moment method for the Cauchy problem for the Helmholtz equation

The paper is concerned with the problem of reconstruction of acoustic or electromagnetic field from inexact data given on an open part of the boundary of a given domain. A regularization concept is presented for the moment problem that is equivalent to a Cauchy problem for the Helmholtz equation. A method of regularization by projection with application of the Meyer wavelet subspaces is introduced and analyzed. The derived formula, describing the projection level in terms of the error bound of the inexact Cauchy data, allows us to prove the convergence and stability of the method.     

Cauchy problems of semilinear pseudo-parabolic equations

This paper concerns with the Cauchy problems of semilinear pseudo-parabolic equations. After establishing the necessary existence, uniqueness and comparison principle for mild solutions, which are also classical ones provided that the initial data are appropriately smooth, we investigate large time behavior of solutions. It is shown that there still exist the critical global existence exponent and the critical Fujita exponent for pseudo-parabolic equations and that these two critical exponents are consistent with the corresponding semilinear heat equations.     

Cauchy problem for fractional diffusion equations

We consider an evolution equation with the regularized fractional derivative of an order α∈(0,1) with respect to the time variable, and a uniformly elliptic operator with variable coefficients acting in the spatial variables. Such equations describe diffusion on inhomogeneous fractals. A fundamental solution of the Cauchy problem is constructed and investigated.

A non-local regularization of first order Hamilton-Jacobi equations

In this paper, we investigate the regularizing effect of a non-local operator on first-order Hamilton-Jacobi equations. We prove that there exists a unique solution that is C² in space and C¹ in time. In order to do so, we combine viscosity solution techniques and Green's function techniques. Viscosity solution theory provides the existence of a W^1,∞ solution as well as uniqueness and stability results. A Duhamel's integral representation of the equation involving the Green's function permits to prove further regularity. We also state the existence of C^∞ solutions (in space and time) under suitable assumptions on the Hamiltonian. We finally give an error estimate in L^∞ norm between the viscosity solution of the pure Hamilton-Jacobi equation and the solution of the integro-differential equation with a vanishing non-local part.
