The continuous dependence on parameters of solutions for a class of elliptic problems on exterior domains

The goal of this paper is to discuss the continuous dependence of solutions on functional parameters for the following semilinear elliptic partial differential equation: , for x∈Ω_r0?{x∈Rⁿ,n≥3,‖x‖>r₀} and v∈V, where V stands for some functional space. Our approach covers the case when f may change sign and admits general growth. As an additional result, the characterization of the radius r₀ for which our problem possesses at least one positive evanescent solution in the exterior domain Ω_r0 is described and numerically illustrated. Our approach relies on the subsolution and supersolution method and on a lemma due to Noussair and Swanson.     

Symmetric kernel of Rademacher multiplicator spaces

Let X be a rearrangement invariant (r.i.) function space on [0,1]. We consider the Rademacher multiplicator space Λ(R,X) of measurable functions x such that xh∈X for every a.e. converging series h=∑a_nr_n∈X, where (r_n) are the Rademacher functions. We show that for a broad class of r.i. spaces X, the space Λ(R,X) is not r.i. In this case, we identify the symmetric kernel of the Rademacher multiplicator space and study when reduces to L^∞. In the opposite direction, we find new examples of r.i. spaces for which Λ(R,X) is r.i. We consider in detail the case when X is a Marcinkiewicz or an exponential Orlicz space.     

Removable singularity of the polyharmonic equation

Let x₀∈Ω⊂Rⁿ, n≥2, be a domain and let m≥2. We will prove that a solution u of the polyharmonic equation Δ^mu=0 in Ω?{x₀} has a removable singularity at x₀ if and only if as |x−x₀|→0 for n≥3 and as |x−x₀|→0 for n=2. For m≥2 we will also prove that u has a removable singularity at x₀ if |u(x)|=o(|x−x₀|^2m−n) as |x−x₀|→0 for n≥3 and |u(x)|=o(|x−x₀|^2m−2log(|x−x₀|⁻¹)) as |x−x₀|→0 for n=2.     

Global solutions and blow-up phenomena to a shallow water equation

A nonlinear shallow water equation, which includes the famous Camassa-Holm (CH) and Degasperis-Procesi (DP) equations as special cases, is investigated. The local well-posedness of solutions for the nonlinear equation in the Sobolev space Hs(R) with is developed. Provided that does not change sign, u₀∈Hs () and u₀∈L¹(R), the existence and uniqueness of the global solutions to the equation are shown to be true in u(t,x)∈C([0,∞);Hs(R))∩C¹([0,∞);Hs−1(R)). Conditions that lead to the development of singularities in finite time for the solutions are also acquired.     

Carleson embeddings for Sobolev spaces via heat equation

Let u(t,x) be the solution of the heat equation (∂_t-Δ_x)u(t,x)=0 on subject to u(0,x)=f(x) on Rⁿ. The main goal of this paper is to characterize such a nonnegative measure μ on that f(x)?u(t²,x) induces a bounded embedding from the Sobolev space , p∈[1,n) into the Lebesgue space , q∈(0,∞).     

On the existence of local strong solutions for the Navier-Stokes equations in completely general domains

There are only very few results on the existence of unique local in time strong solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations for completely general domains Ω⊆R³, although domains with edges and corners, bounded or unbounded, are very important in applications. The reason is that the L^q-theory for the Stokes operator A is available in general only in the Hilbert space setting, i.e., with q=2. Our main result for a general domain Ω is optimal in a certain sense: Consider an initial value and a zero external force. Then the condition is sufficient and necessary for the existence of a unique local strong solution u∈L⁸(0,T;L⁴(Ω)) in some interval [0,T), 0<T≤∞, with u(0)=u₀, satisfying Serrin’s condition . Note that Fujita-Kato’s sufficient condition u₀∈D(A^1/4) is strictly stronger and therefore not optimal.     

Convergence to strong nonlinear diffusion waves for solutions to p-system with damping on quadrant

In this paper, we consider the so-called p-system with linear damping on quadrant. We show that for a certain class of given large initial data (v₀(x),u₀(x)), the corresponding initial-boundary value problem admits a unique global smooth solution (v(x,t),u(x,t)) and such a solution tends time-asymptotically, at the Lp (2?p?∞) optimal decay rates, to the corresponding nonlinear diffusion wave which satisfies (1.9) provided the corresponding prescribed initial error function (V₀(x),U₀(x)) lies in (H³(R⁺)∩L¹(R⁺))×(H²(R⁺)∩L¹(R⁺)).     

Density of constant radius normal binary covering codes

A binary code with covering radius R is a subset C of the hypercube Q_n={0,1}ⁿ such that every x∈Q_n is within Hamming distance R of some codeword c∈C, where R is as small as possible. For a fixed coordinate i∈[n], define to be the set of codewords with a b in the ith position. Then C is normal if there exists an i∈[n] such that for any v∈Q_n, the sum of the Hamming distances from v to and is at most 2R+1. We newly define what it means for an asymmetric covering code to be normal, and consider the worst-case asymptotic densities ν^*(R) and of constant radius R symmetric and asymmetric normal covering codes, respectively. Using a probabilistic deletion method, and analysis adapted from previous work by Krivelevich, Sudakov, and Vu, we show that and , giving evidence that minimum size constant radius covering codes could still be normal.     

Characterizations of Besov-type and Triebel-Lizorkin-type spaces via maximal functions and local means

Let s∈R. In this paper, the authors first establish the maximal function characterizations of the Besov-type space with and τ∈[0,∞), the Triebel-Lizorkin-type space with p∈(0,∞), q∈(0,∞] and τ∈[0,∞), the Besov-Hausdorff space with p∈(1,∞), q∈[1,∞) and and the Triebel-Lizorkin-Hausdorff space with and , where t^′ denotes the conjugate index of t∈[1,∞]. Using this characterization, the authors further obtain the local mean characterizations of these function spaces via functions satisfying the Tauberian condition and establish a Fourier multiplier theorem on these spaces. All these results generalize the existing classical results on Besov and Triebel-Lizorkin spaces by taking τ=0 and are also new even for Q spaces and Hardy-Hausdorff spaces.     

Classification of solutions of a critical Hardy-Sobolev operator

In this article we classify all positive finite energy solutions of the equation in Rⁿ where and a point x∈Rⁿ is denoted as x=(y,z)∈R^k×R^n-k. As a consequence we obtain the best constant and extremals of a related Hardy-Sobolev inequality.     

Stability to the global large solutions of 3-D Navier-Stokes equations

In this paper, we consider the stability to the global large solutions of 3-D incompressible Navier-Stokes equations in the anisotropic Sobolev spaces. In particular, we proved that for any , given a global large solution v∈C([0,∞);H0,s₀(R³)∩L³(R³)) of (1.1) with and a divergence free vector satisfying for some sufficiently small constant depending on , v, and , (1.1) supplemented with initial data v(0)+w₀ has a unique global solution in u∈C([0,∞);H0,s₀(R³)) with ∇u∈L²(R⁺,H0,s₀(R³)). Furthermore, uh is close enough to vh in C([0,∞);H0,s(R³)).     

Compact almost automorphic solutions to integral equations with infinite delay

Given a∈L¹(R) and the generator A of an L¹-integrable resolvent family of linear bounded operators defined on a Banach space X, we prove the existence of compact almost automorphic solutions of the semilinear integral equation for each f:R×X→X compact almost automorphic in t, for each x∈X, and satisfying Lipschitz and Hölder type conditions. In the scalar linear case, we prove that a∈L¹(R) positive, nonincreasing and log-convex is sufficient to obtain the existence of compact almost automorphic solutions.     

On an inhomogeneous slip-inflow boundary value problem for a steady flow of a viscous compressible fluid in a cylindrical domain

We investigate a steady flow of a viscous compressible fluid with inflow boundary condition on the density and inhomogeneous slip boundary conditions on the velocity in a cylindrical domain Ω=Ω₀×(0,L)∈R³. We show existence of a solution , p>3, where v is the velocity of the fluid and ρ is the density, that is a small perturbation of a constant flow (, ). We also show that this solution is unique in a class of small perturbations of . The term u⋅∇w in the continuity equation makes it impossible to show the existence applying directly a fixed point method. Thus in order to show existence of the solution we construct a sequence (vn,ρn) that is bounded in and satisfies the Cauchy condition in a larger space L_∞(0,L;L₂(Ω₀)) what enables us to deduce that the weak limit of a subsequence of (vn,ρn) is in fact a strong solution to our problem.     

Liouville type theorems for the Euler and the Navier–Stokes equations

We prove Liouville type theorems for weak solutions of the Navier–Stokes and the Euler equations. In particular, if the pressure satisfies p∈L¹(0,T;L¹(RN)) with , then the corresponding velocity should be trivial, namely v=0 on RN×(0,T). In particular, this is the case when p∈L¹(0,T;Hq(RN)), where Hq(RN), q∈(0,1], the Hardy space. On the other hand, we have equipartition of energy over each component, if p∈L¹(0,T;L¹(RN)) with . Similar results hold also for the magnetohydrodynamic equations.     

Positivity properties in noncommutative convolution algebras with applications in pseudo-differential calculus

We study , of all such that for every ?∈C^∞₀, where denotes the twisted convolution. We prove that certain boundedness for are completely determined of the behaviour for a at origin, for example that , and that if a(0)<∞, then a∈L²∩L^∞. We use the results in order to determine wether positive pseudo-differential operators belong to certain Schatten-casses or not.     

On a parabolic problem with nonlinear term in a half space and global behavior of solutions

We take up the existence and global behavior of positive continuous solutions of the following nonlinear parabolic equation in (n?2) with boundary conditions u=0 on and u(x,0)=u₀(x). The nonlinear term is required to satisfy some conditions related to a functional class , which we introduce in this paper and will be called parabolic Kato class in the half space. Our approach is based on potential theory.     

Herz spaces and restricted summability of Fourier transforms and Fourier series

A general summability method, the so-called θ-summability is considered for multi-dimensional Fourier transforms and Fourier series. A new inequality for the Hardy-Littlewood maximal function is verified. It is proved that if the Fourier transform of θ is in a Herz space, then the restricted maximal operator of the θ-means of a distribution is of weak type (1,1), provided that the supremum in the maximal operator is taken over a cone-like set. From this it follows that over a cone-like set a.e. for all f∈L₁(Rd). Moreover, converges to f(x) over a cone-like set at each Lebesgue point of f∈L₁(Rd) if and only if the Fourier transform of θ is in a suitable Herz space. These theorems are extended to Wiener amalgam spaces as well. The Riesz and Weierstrass summations are investigated as special cases of the θ-summation.
