Null structure and almost optimal local regularity for the Dirac-Klein-Gordon system

Piero D'Ancona, Damiano Foschi, Sigmund Selberg (2007)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

We prove almost optimal local well-posedness for the coupled Dirac–Klein–Gordon (DKG) system of equations in 1 + 3 dimensions. The proof relies on the null structure of the system, combined with bilinear spacetime estimates of Klainerman–Machedon type. It has been known for some time that the Klein–Gordon part of the system has a null structure; here we uncover an additional null structure in the Dirac equation, which cannot be seen directly, but appears after a duality argument.

Numerical analysis of the planewave discretization of some orbital-free and Kohn-Sham models

Eric Cancès, Rachida Chakir, Yvon Maday (2012)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

In this article, we provide a priorierror estimates for the spectral and pseudospectral Fourier (also called planewave) discretizations of the periodic Thomas-Fermi-von Weizsäcker (TFW) model and for the spectral discretization of the periodic Kohn-Sham model, within the local density approximation (LDA). These models allow to compute approximations of the electronic ground state energy and density of molecular systems in the condensed phase. The TFW model is strictly convex with respect to the...

On blow-up for the Hartree equation

Jiqiang Zheng (2012)

Colloquium Mathematicae

We study the blow-up of solutions to the focusing Hartree equation i u t + Δ u + ( | x | - γ * | u | ² ) u = 0 . We use the strategy derived from the almost finite speed of propagation ideas devised by Bourgain (1999) and virial analysis to deduce that the solution with negative energy (E(u₀) < 0) blows up in either finite or infinite time. We also show a result similar to one of Holmer and Roudenko (2010) for the Schrödinger equations using techniques from scattering theory.

On phase segregation in nonlocal two-particle Hartree systems

Walter Aschbacher, Marco Squassina (2009)

Open Mathematics

We prove the phase segregation phenomenon to occur in the ground state solutions of an interacting system of two self-coupled repulsive Hartree equations for large nonlinear and nonlocal interactions. A self-consistent numerical investigation visualizes the approach to this segregated regime.

On some properties of the solution of the differential equation u ' ' + 2 u ' r = u - u 3

Valter Šeda, Ján Pekár (1990)

Aplikace matematiky

In the paper it is shown that each solution u ( r , α ) ot the initial value problem (2), (3) has a finite limit for r , and an asymptotic formula for the nontrivial solution u ( r , α ) tending to 0 is given. Further, the existence of such a solutions is established by examining the number of zeros of two different solutions u ( r , α ¯ ) , u ( r , α ^ ) .

On the asymptotics of solutions to the second initial boundary value problem for Schrödinger systems in domains with conical points

Nguyen Manh Hung, Hoang Viet Long, Nguyen Thi Kim Son (2013)

Applications of Mathematics

In this paper, for the second initial boundary value problem for Schrödinger systems, we obtain a performance of generalized solutions in a neighborhood of conical points on the boundary of the base of infinite cylinders. The main result are asymptotic formulas for generalized solutions in case the associated spectrum problem has more than one eigenvalue in the strip considered.
