L p -decay rates to nonlinear diffusion waves for p-system with nonlinear damping

In this paper, we study the L ^p (2 ? p ? +∞) convergence rates of the solutions to the Cauchy problem of the so-called p-system with nonlinear damping. Precisely, we show that the corresponding Cauchy problem admits a unique global solution (v(x,t), u(x,t)) and such a solution tends time-asymptotically to the corresponding nonlinear diffusion wave (?(x,t), ū(x,t)) governed by the classical Darcys’s law provided that the corresponding prescribed initial error function (w ₀(x), z ₀(x)) lies in (H ³ × H ²) (?) and |v ₊ ? v _?| + ∥w ₀∥₃ + ∥z ₀∥₂ is sufficiently small. Furthermore, the L ^p (2 ? p ? +∞) convergence rates of the solutions are also obtained.     

Correlation structure of intermittency in the parabolic Anderson model

Consider the Cauchy problem ∂u(x, t)/∂t = ℋu(x, t) (x∈ℤ^d, t≥ 0) with initial condition u(x, 0) ≡ 1 and with ℋ the Anderson Hamiltonian ℋ = κΔ + ξ. Here Δ is the discrete Laplacian, κ∈ (0, ∞) is a diffusion constant, and ξ = {ξ(x): x∈ℤ ^d } is an i.i.d.random field taking values in ℝ. G?rtner and Molchanov (1990) have shown that if the law of ξ(0) is nondegenerate, then the solution u is asymptotically intermittent. In the present paper we study the structure of the intermittent peaks for the special case where the law of ξ(0) is (in the vicinity of) the double exponential Prob(ξ(0) > s) = exp[−e ^{s /θ}] (s∈ℝ). Here θ∈ (0, ∞) is a parameter that can be thought of as measuring the degree of disorder in the ξ-field. Our main result is that, for fixed x, y∈ℤ ^d and t→∈, the correlation coefficient of u(x, t) and u(y, t) converges to ∥w _ρ∥⁻² _ℓ2Σ_{z ∈ℤd} w _ρ(x+z)w _ρ(y+z). In this expression, ρ = θ/κ while w _ρ:ℤ^d→ℝ⁺ is given by w _ρ = (v _ρ)^{⊗ d} with v _ρ: ℤ→ℝ⁺ the unique centered ground state (i.e., the solution in ℓ²(ℤ) with minimal l ²-norm) of the 1-dimensional nonlinear equation Δv + 2ρv log v = 0. The uniqueness of the ground state is actually proved only for large ρ, but is conjectured to hold for any ρ∈ (0, ∞). empty It turns out that if the right tail of the law of ξ(0) is thicker (or thinner) than the double exponential, then the correlation coefficient of u(x, t) and u(y, t) converges to δ _{x, y} (resp.the constant function 1). Thus, the double exponential family is the critical class exhibiting a nondegenerate correlation structure. Received: 5 March 1997 / Revised version: 21 September 1998     

Multiparameter inverse problem of approximation by functions with given supports

Let L _p (S), 0 < p < +∞, be a Lebesgue space of measurable functions on S with ordinary quasinorm ∥·∥ _p . For a system of sets {B _t |t ∈ [0, +∞) ⁿ } and a given function ψ: [0, +∞) ⁿ ↦ [ 0, +∞), we establish necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of a function f ∈ L _p (S) such that inf {∥f − g∥ _p ^p g ∈ L _p (S), g = 0 almost everywhere on S\B _t } = ψ (t), t ∈ [0, +∞) ⁿ . As a consequence, we obtain a generalization and improvement of the Dzhrbashyan theorem on the inverse problem of approximation by functions of the exponential type in L ₂. __________ Translated from Ukrains’kyi Matematychnyi Zhurnal, Vol. 58, No. 8, pp. 1116–1127, August, 2006.

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⁺)).

L P boundedness of area function associated with operators on product spaces

Let L be the infinitesimal generator of an analytic semigroup on L2 (Rn) with suitable upper bounds on its heat kernels. Assume that L has a bounded holomorphic functional calculus on L2(Rn). In this paper,we define the Littlewood- Paley g function associated with L on Rn × Rn, denoted by GL(f)(x1, x2), and decomposition, we prove that ‖SL(f)‖p ≈‖GL(f)‖p ≈‖f‖p for 1 ＜ p ＜∞.     

Singular solutions of some nonlinear parabolic equations

We consider the existence and uniqueness of singular solutions for equations of the formu ₁=div(|Du|^p−2 Du)-φu), with initial datau(x, 0)=0 forx⇑0. The function ϕ is a nondecreasing real function such that ϕ(0)=0 andp>2. Under a growth condition on ϕ(u) asu→∞, (H1), we prove that for everyc>0 there exists a singular solution such thatu(x, t)→cδ(x) ast→0. This solution is unique and is called a fundamental solution. Under additional conditions, (H2) and (H3), we show the existence of very singular solutions, i.e. singular solutions such that ∫_|x|≤r u(x,t)dx→∞ ast→0. Finally, for functions ϕ which behave like a power for largeu we prove that the very singular solution is unique. This is our main result. In the case ϕ(u)=u ^q, 1≤q, there are fundamental solutions forq<p*=p-1+(p/N) and very singular solutions forp-1<q<p*. These ranges are optimal. Dedicated to Professor Shmuel Agmon     

Mathematical and numerical study of a system of conservation laws

The system of equations (f (u))_t − (a(u)v + b(u))_x = 0 and u_t − (c(u)v + d(u))_x = 0, where the unknowns u and v are functions depending on , arises within the study of some physical model of the flow of miscible fluids in a porous medium. We give a definition for a weak entropy solution (u, v), inspired by the Liu condition for admissible shocks and by Krushkov entropy pairs. We then prove, in the case of a natural generalization of the Riemann problem, the existence of a weak entropy solution only depending on x/t. This property results from the proof of the existence, by passing to the limit on some approximations, of a function g such that u is the classical entropy solution of u_t − ((cg + d)(u))_x = 0 and simultaneously w = f (u) is the entropy solution of w_t − ((ag + b)(f⁽⁻¹⁾(w)))_x = 0. We then take v = g(u), and the proof that (u, v) is a weak entropy solution of the coupled problem follows from a linear combination of the weak entropy inequalities satisfied by u and f (u). We then show the existence of an entropy weak solution for a general class of data, thanks to the convergence proof of a coupled finite volume scheme. The principle of this scheme is to compute the Godunov numerical flux with some interface functions ensuring the symmetry of the finite volume scheme with respect to both conservation equations.     

Growth and Hölder conditions for the sample paths of Feller processes

Let (A,D(A)) be the infinitesimal generator of a Feller semigroup such that C _c ^∞(ℝ ⁿ )⊂D(A) and A|C _c ^∞(ℝ ⁿ ) is a pseudo-differential operator with symbol −p(x,ξ) satisfying |p(•,ξ)|_∞≤c(1+|ξ|²) and |Imp(x,ξ)|≤c ₀Rep(x,ξ). We show that the associated Feller process {X _t } _{t ≥0} on ℝ ⁿ is a semimartingale, even a homogeneous diffusion with jumps (in the sense of [21]), and characterize the limiting behaviour of its trajectories as t→0 and ∞. To this end, we introduce various indices, e.g., β_∞ ^x :={λ>0:lim _{|ξ|→∞ | x − y |≤2/|ξ|}|p(y,ξ)|/|ξ|^λ=0} or δ_∞ ^x :={λ>0:liminf _{|ξ|→∞ | x − y |≤2/|ξ| |ε|≤1}|p(y,|ξ|ε)|/|ξ|^λ=0}, and obtain a.s. (ℙ ^x ) that lim _{t →0} t ^−1/λ _{s ≤ t} |X _s −x|=0 or ∞ according to λ>β_∞ ^x or λ<δ_∞ ^x . Similar statements hold for the limit inferior and superior, and also for t→∞. Our results extend the constant-coefficient (i.e., Lévy) case considered by W. Pruitt [27]. Received: 21 July 1997 / Revised version: 26 January 1998     

An Application of a Mountain Pass Theorem

We are concerned with the following Dirichlet problem: −Δu(x) = f(x, u), x∈Ω, u∈H ¹ ₀(Ω), (P) where f(x, t) ∈C (×ℝ), f(x, t)/t is nondecreasing in t∈ℝ and tends to an L ^∞-function q(x) uniformly in x∈Ω as t→ + ∞ (i.e., f(x, t) is asymptotically linear in t at infinity). In this case, an Ambrosetti-Rabinowitz-type condition, that is, for some θ > 2, M > 0, 0 > θF(x, s) ≤f(x, s)s, for all |s|≥M and x∈Ω, (AR) is no longer true, where F(x, s) = ∫ ^s ₀ f(x, t)dt. As is well known, (AR) is an important technical condition in applying Mountain Pass Theorem. In this paper, without assuming (AR) we prove, by using a variant version of Mountain Pass Theorem, that problem (P) has a positive solution under suitable conditions on f(x, t) and q(x). Our methods also work for the case where f(x, t) is superlinear in t at infinity, i.e., q(x) ≡ +∞. Received June 24, 1998, Accepted January 14, 2000.     

Asymptotic relation for the density of a multidimensional random evolution with rare poisson switchings

A symmetric random evolution X(t) = (X ₁ (t), …, X _m (t)) controlled by a homogeneous Poisson process with parameter λ > 0 is considered in the Euclidean space ℝ ^m , m ≥ 2. We obtain an asymptotic relation for the transition density p(x, t), t > 0, of the process X(t) as λ → 0 and describe the behavior of p(x, t) near the boundary of the diffusion domain in spaces of different dimensions.
