Asymptotic nonlinear stability of a composite wave of two traveling waves to a chemotaxis model

In this paper, we investigate the asymptotic stability of a composite wave consisting of two traveling waves to a Keller–Segel chemotaxis model with logarithmic sensitivity and nonzero chemical diffusion. We show that the composite wave is asymptotically stable under general initial perturbation, which only be needed small in H¹‐norm. This improves previous results.

Norm behaviour of solutions to a parabolic–elliptic system modelling chemotaxis in a domain of ℝ3

In this paper, we study a parabolic–elliptic system defined on a bounded domain of ?³, which comes from a chemotactic model. We first prove the existence and uniqueness of local in time solution to this problem in the Sobolev spaces framework, then we study the norm behaviour of solution, which may help us to determine the blow‐up norm of the maximal solution.

Boundedness of solutions to a quasilinear parabolic–elliptic Keller–Segel system with logistic source

We study a quasilinear parabolic–elliptic Keller–Segel system involving a source term of logistic type u_t = ? ? (?(u) ? u) ? χ ? ? (u ? v) + g(u), ? Δv = ? v + u in Ω × (0,T), subject to nonnegative initial data and the homogeneous Neumann boundary condition in a bounded domain with smooth boundary, n ≥ 1, χ > 0, ? ≥ c₁s^p for s ≥ s₀ > 1, and g(s) ≤ as ? μs² for s > 0 with a,g(0) ≥ 0, μ > 0. There are three nonlinear mechanisms included in the chemotaxis model: the nonlinear diffusion, aggregation and logistic absorption. The interaction among the triple nonlinearities shows that together with the nonlinear diffusion, the logistic absorption will dominate the aggregation such that the unique classical solution of the system has to be global in time and bounded, regardless of the initial data, whenever , or, equivalently, , which enlarge the parameter range , or , required by globally bounded solutions of the quasilinear K‐S system without the logistic source.

The stability of traveling waves with non-critical speeds for some competition systems

Possibility of the existence of blow‐up solutions to quasilinear degenerate Keller–Segel systems of parabolic–parabolic type

This paper deals with the quasilinear ‘degenerate’ Keller–Segel system of parabolic–parabolic type under the super‐critical condition. In the ‘non‐degenerate’ case, Winkler (Math. Methods Appl. Sci. 2010; 33:12–24) constructed the initial data such that the solution blows up in either finite or infinite time. However, the blow‐up under the super‐critical condition is left as an open question in the ‘degenerate’ case. In this paper, we try to give an answer to the question under assuming the existence of local solutions. Copyright © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Orbital stability of periodic traveling wave solutions to the generalized Long-Short wave equations

This paper investigates the orbital stability of periodic traveling wave solutions to the generalized Long-Short wave equations $\left\{\begin{array}{l}i\varepsilon_{t}+\varepsilon_{xx}=n\varepsilon+\alpha|\varepsilon|^{2}\varepsilon,\\n_{t}=(|\varepsilon|^{2})_{x}, x\in R.\end{array} \right.$ Firstly, we show that there exist a smooth curve of positive traveling wave solutions of dnoidal type with a fixed fundamental period $L$ for the generalized Long-Short wave equations. Then, combining the classical method proposed by Benjamin, Bona et al., and detailed spectral analysis given by using Lame equation and Floquet theory, we show that the dnoidal type periodic wave solution is orbitally stable by perturbations with period $L$. As the modulus of the Jacobian elliptic function $k\rightarrow 1$, we obtain the orbital stability results of solitary wave solution with zero asymptotic value for the generalized Long-Short equations. In particular, as $\alpha=0$, we can also obtain the orbital stability results of periodic wave solutions and solitary wave solutions for the long-short wave resonance equations. The results in the present paper improve and extend the previous stability results of long-shore wave equations and its extension equations.     

Asymptotic behavior to a chemotaxis consumption system with singular sensitivity

We consider a chemotaxis consumption system with singular sensitivity , v_t=εΔv−uv in a bounded domain with χ,α,ε>0. The global existence of classical solutions is obtained with n=1. Moreover, for any global classical solution (u,v) to the case of n,α≥1, it is shown that v converges to 0 in the L^∞‐norm as t→∞ with the decay rate established whenever ε∈(ε₀,1) with .     

Asymptotic behavior of solutions of a model derived from the 1‐D Keller–Segel model on the half line

In this paper, we are interested in a model derived from the 1‐D Keller‐Segel model on the half line x >  as follows: where l is a constant. Under the conserved boundary condition, we study the asymptotic behavior of solutions. We prove that the problem is always globally and classically solvable when the initial data is small, and moreover, we obtain the decay rates of solutions. The paper mainly deals with the case of l > 0. In this case, the solution to the problem tends to a conserved stationary solution in an exponential decay rate, which is a very different result from the case of l < 0.

Asymptotic stability of traveling wave fronts in nonlocal reaction–diffusion equations with delay

This paper is concerned with the asymptotic stability of traveling wave fronts of a class of nonlocal reaction–diffusion equations with delay. Under monostable assumption, we prove that the traveling wave front is exponentially stable by means of the (technical) weighted energy method, when the initial perturbation around the wave is suitable small in a weighted norm. The exponential convergent rate is also obtained. Finally, we apply our results to some population models and obtain some new results, which recover, complement and/or improve a number of existing ones.     

Stability of periodic traveling flexural‐gravity waves in two dimensions

In this work, we solve the Euler's equations for periodic waves traveling under a sheet of ice. These waves are referred to as flexural‐gravity waves. We compare and contrast two models for the effect of the ice: a linear model and a nonlinear model. The benefit of this reformulation is that it facilitates the asymptotic analysis. We use it to derive the nonlinear Schrödinger equation that describes the modulational instability of periodic traveling waves. We compare this asymptotic result with the numerical computation of stability using the Fourier–Floquet–Hill method to show they agree qualitatively. We show that different models have different stability regimes for large values of the flexural rigidity parameter. Numerical computations are also used to analyze high‐frequency instabilities in addition to the modulational instability. In the regions examined, these are shown to be the same regardless of the model representing ice.     

Local solvability of the Keller–Segel system with Cauchy data in the Besov spaces

Global existence and time decay estimate of solutions to the Keller–Segel system

We consider the chemotaxis‐Navier–Stokes system 1.1-1.4 (Keller–Segel system) in the whole space, which describes the motion of oxygen‐driven bacteria, eukaryotes, in a fluid. We proved the global existence and time decay estimate of solutions to the Cauchy problem 1.1-1.2 in with the small initial data. Moreover, when the fluid motion is described by the Stokes equations, we established the global weak solutions to 1.3-1.4 in with the potential function ? is small and the initial density n₀(x) has finite mass.     

Asymptotic stability of stationary solutions to the compressible bipolar Navier–Stokes–Poisson equations

In this paper, we consider the compressible bipolar Navier–Stokes–Poisson equations with a non‐flat doping profile in three‐dimensional space. The existence and uniqueness of the non‐constant stationary solutions are established when the doping profile is a small perturbation of a positive constant state. Then under the smallness assumption of the initial perturbation, we show the global existence of smooth solutions to the Cauchy problem near the stationary state. Finally, the convergence rates are obtained by combining the energy estimates for the nonlinear system and the L²‐decay estimates for the linearized equations.

On the well‐posedness for Keller–Segel system with fractional diffusion

In this paper, we study the Cauchy problem for the Keller–Segel system with fractional diffusion generalizing the Keller–Segel model of chemotaxis for the initial data (u₀,v₀) in critical Fourier‐Herz spaces with q ∈ [2, ∞], where 1 < α ≤ 2. Making use of some estimates of the linear dissipative equation in the frame of mixed time‐space spaces, the Chemin ‘mono‐norm method’, the Fourier localization technique and the Littlewood–Paley theory, we get a local well‐posedness result and a global well‐posedness result with a small initial data. In addition, ill‐posedness for ‘doubly parabolic’ models is also studied. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

In this paper, we use the bifurcation method of dynamical systems to study the traveling wave solutions for the Davey–Stewartson equation. A number of traveling wave solutions are obtained. Those solutions contain explicit periodic wave solutions, periodic blow‐up wave solutions, unbounded wave solutions, kink profile solitary wave solutions, and solitary wave solutions. Relations of the traveling wave solutions are given. Some previous results are extended. Copyright © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Asymptotic stability of traveling waves in a discrete convolution model for phase transitions

In a recent paper [P. Bates, A. Chmaj, A discrete convolution model for phase transition, Arch. Rational Mech. Anal. 150 (1999) 281-305], a discrete convolution model for Ising-like phase transition has been derived, and the existence, uniqueness of traveling waves and stability of stationary solution have been studied. This nonlocal model describes l₂-gradient flow for a Helmholts free energy functional with general range interaction. In this paper, by using the comparison principle and the squeezing technique, we prove that the traveling wavefronts with nonzero speed is globally asymptotic stable with phase shift.

Monotonicity,uniqueness, and stability of traveling waves in a nonlocal reaction‐diffusion system with delay

The purpose of this paper is to study the traveling wave solutions of a nonlocal reaction‐diffusion system with delay arising from the spread of an epidemic by oral‐faecal transmission. Under monostable and quasimonotone it is well known that the system has a minimal wave speed c* of traveling wave fronts. In this paper, we first prove the monotonicity and uniqueness of traveling waves with speed c ?c _?. Then we show that the traveling wave fronts with speed c >c _? are exponentially asymptotically stable.
