Treibich-Verdier potentials and the stationary (m)KDV hierarchy.
We consider a Vlasov-Fokker-Planck equation governing the evolution of the density of interacting and diffusive matter in the space of positions and velocities. We use a probabilistic interpretation to obtain convergence towards equilibrium in Wasserstein distance with an explicit exponential rate. We also prove a propagation of chaos property for an associated particle system, and give rates on the approximation of the solution by the particle system. Finally, a transportation inequality...
Trudinger-Moser inequality is a substitute to the (forbidden) critical Sobolev embedding, namely the case where the scaling corresponds to . It is well known that the original form of the inequality with the sharp exponent (proved by Moser) fails on the whole plane, but a few modied versions are available. We prove a precised version of the latter, giving necessary and sufficient conditions for the boundedness, as well as for the compactness, in terms of the growth and decay of the nonlinear function....
It is known that the nonlinear nonhomogeneous backward Cauchy problem , with , where is a densely defined positive self-adjoint unbounded operator on a Hilbert space, is ill-posed in the sense that small perturbations in the final value can lead to large deviations in the solution. We show, under suitable conditions on and , that a solution of the above problem satisfies an integral equation involving the spectral representation of , which is also ill-posed. Spectral truncation is used...
We study low lying eigenvalues for non-selfadjoint semiclassical differential operators, where symmetries play an important role. In the case of the Kramers-Fokker-Planck operator, we show how the presence of certain supersymmetric and -symmetric structures leads to precise results concerning the reality and the size of the exponentially small eigenvalues in the semiclassical (here the low temperature) limit. This analysis also applies sometimes to chains of oscillators coupled to two heat baths,...
In this note we describe recent results on semiclassical random walk associated to a probability density which may also concentrate as the semiclassical parameter goes to zero. The main result gives a spectral asymptotics of the close to eigenvalues. This problem was studied in [1] and relies on a general factorization result for pseudo-differential operators. In this note we just sketch the proof of this second theorem. At the end of the note, using the factorization, we give a new proof of the...
We consider the focusing nonlinear Schrödinger equations . We prove the existence of two finite time blow up dynamics in the supercritical case and provide for each a qualitative description of the singularity formation near the blow up time.
We consider a nonlinear Neumann problem with a nonhomogeneous elliptic differential operator. With some natural conditions for its structure and some general assumptions on the growth of the reaction term we prove that the problem has two nontrivial solutions of constant sign. In the proof we use variational methods with truncation and minimization techniques.
We provide two examples of a regular curve evolving by curvature with a forcing term, which degenerates in a set having an interior part after a finite time.
