The aim of this paper is to derive a general model for reduced viscous and resistive Magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) and to study its mathematical structure. The model is established for arbitrary density profiles in the poloidal section of the toroidal geometry of Tokamaks. The existence of global weak solutions, on the one hand, and the stability of the fundamental mode around initial data, on the other hand, are investigated.
This paper is devoted to the study of the regularity of solutions to some systems of reaction–diffusion equations. In particular, we show the global boundedness and regularity of the solutions in one and two dimensions. In addition, we discuss the Hausdorff dimension of the set of singularities in higher dimensions. Our approach is inspired by De Giorgi’s method for elliptic regularity with rough coefficients. The proof uses the specific structure of the system to be considered and is not a mere...
We prove a regularity criterion for a nonhomogeneous incompressible Ginzburg-Landau-Navier-Stokes system with the Coulomb gauge in . It is proved that if the velocity field in the Besov space satisfies some integral property, then the solution keeps its smoothness.
We show that in the setting of the spatially homogeneous Boltzmann equation without cut-off, the entropy dissipation associated to a function f ∈ L1(RN) yields a control of √f in Sobolev norms as soon as f is locally bounded below. Under this additional assumption of lower bound, our result is an improvement of a recent estimate given by P.-L. Lions, and is optimal in a certain sense.
We present a new class of averaging lemmas directly motivated by the question of regularity for different nonlinear equations or variational problems which admit a kinetic formulation. In particular they improve the known regularity for systems like in isentropic gas dynamics or in some variational problems arising in thin micromagnetic films. They also allow to obtain directly the best known regularizing effect in multidimensional scalar conservation laws. The new ingredient here is to use velocity...
We present a new class of averaging lemmas directly motivated by the question of regularity for different nonlinear equations or variational problems which admit a kinetic formulation. In particular they improve the known regularity for systems like γ = 3 in isentropic gas dynamics or in some variational problems arising in thin micromagnetic films. They also allow to obtain directly the best known regularizing effect in multidimensional scalar conservation laws. The new ingredient here is to...
A directed-edge-reinforced random walk on graphs is considered. Criteria for the walk to end up in a limit cycle are given. Asymptotic stability of some neural networks is shown.
This paper is concerned with the global well-posedness and relaxation-time limits for the solutions in the full quantum hydrodynamic model, which can be used to analyze the thermal and quantum influences on the transport of carriers in semiconductor devices. For the Cauchy problem in , we prove the global existence, uniqueness and exponential decay estimate of smooth solutions, when the initial data are small perturbations of an equilibrium state. Moreover, we show that the solutions converge into...
