Multiple doubly periodic solutions of semi-linear damped beam equations

The purpose of this work is to investigate the weakened Ambrosetti–Prodi type multiplicity results for weak doubly periodic solutions of damped beam equations. By using the topological degree theory, the author obtains a result which is similar to the result for damped wave equations in the literature.     

Homoclinic breather-wave solutions and doubly periodic wave solutions for coupled KdV equations

In this paper, we first find out a proper variable transformation by the ideas of Painleve expansion. Then we apply the extended homoclinic test approach to obtain two-cycle breathing places wave solutions of Eq. (1) which describe interactions between two physical waves, and these special solutions can be applied to explain the structure of certain physical phenomena. Thus this method can be applied to the study of other similar nonlinear coupled system.     

Bounds for the maximal function associated to periodic solutions of one-dimensional dispersive equations

We give bounds on sup_t |u(x, t)| for solutions u of dispersiveequations on the one-dimensional torus. They are obtained fromsome improvements on bilinear types of estimate.     

Stability of large- and small-amplitude solitary waves in the generalized Korteweg-de Vries and Euler-Korteweg/Boussinesq equations

This paper establishes that solitary waves for the generalized Korteweg-de Vries equation and for the generalized Boussinesq equation are stable if the flux function p satisfies

     

Third-order nonlinear dispersive equations: Shocks, rarefaction, and blowup waves

Shock waves and blowup arising in third-order nonlinear dispersive equations are studied. The underlying model is the equation in (0.1) $ u_t = (uu_x )_{xx} in\mathbb{R} \times \mathbb{R}_ + . $ It is shown that two basic Riemann problems for Eq. (0.1) with the initial data $ S_ \mp (x) = \mp \operatorname{sgn} x $ exhibit a shock wave (u(x, t) ≡ S _?(x)) and a smooth rarefaction wave (for S ₊), respectively. Various blowing-up and global similarity solutions to Eq. (0.1) are constructed that demonstrate the fine structure of shock and rarefaction waves. A technique based on eigenfunctions and the nonlinear capacity is developed to prove the blowup of solutions. The analysis of Eq. (0.1) resembles the entropy theory of scalar conservation laws of the form u _t + uu _x = 0, which was developed by O.A. Oleinik and S.N. Kruzhkov (for equations in x ? ? ^N ) in the 1950s–1960s.

A kind of explicit Riemann theta functions periodic waves solutions for discrete soliton equations

In this paper, Riemann theta functions are used to construct one-theta function and two-theta functions solutions to a class of Hirota bilinear equations, such as extended version of the discrete mKdV equation and deautonomization of the two-dimensional Toda lattice equation. To get the Riemann theta function periodic waves solutions (the quasi-periodic solutions), this method is direct and simple which use only the identities of the theta functions.     

Periodic solutions for doubly nonlinear evolution equations

We discuss the existence of periodic solution for the doubly nonlinear evolution equation A(u^′(t))+∂?(u(t))∋f(t) governed by a maximal monotone operator A and a subdifferential operator ∂? in a Hilbert space H. As the corresponding Cauchy problem cannot be expected to be uniquely solvable, the standard approach based on the Poincaré map may genuinely fail. In order to overcome this difficulty, we firstly address some approximate problems relying on a specific approximate periodicity condition. Then, periodic solutions for the original problem are obtained by establishing energy estimates and by performing a limiting procedure. As a by-product, a structural stability analysis is presented for the periodic problem and an application to nonlinear PDEs is provided.     

Asymptotic behavior for doubly degenerate parabolic equations

We use mass transportation inequalities to study the asymptotic behavior for a class of doubly degenerate parabolic equations of the form

(1)$\text{?ρ}\text{?t}\text{=}\text{div}\text{ρ?c}{}^1\text{?}\text{F′(ρ)+V}\text{in}\text{(0,∞)×Ω,}\text{and}\text{ρ(t=0)=ρ}{}_0\text{in}\text{{0}×Ω,}$

where $\text{Ω}$ is $\text{R}{}^{\mathrm{n}}$, or a bounded domain of $\text{R}{}^{\mathrm{n}}$ in which case $\text{ρ?c}{}^1\text{[?(F′(ρ)+V)]·ν=0}$ on $\text{(0,∞)×?Ω}$. We investigate the case where the potential V is uniformly c-convex, and the degenerate case where V=0. In both cases, we establish an exponential decay in relative entropy and in the c-Wasserstein distance of solutions – or self-similar solutions – of (1) to equilibrium, and we give the explicit rates of convergence. In particular, we generalize to all p>1, the HWI inequalities obtained by Otto and Villani (J. Funct. Anal. 173 (2) (2000) 361–400) when p=2. This class of PDEs includes the Fokker–Planck, the porous medium, fast diffusion and the parabolic p-Laplacian equations. To cite this article: M. Agueh, C. R. Acad. Sci. Paris, Ser.
