On the uniqueness of ground states of non-local equations

Rupert L. Frank (2011)

Journées Équations aux dérivées partielles

Similarity:

We review our joint result with E. Lenzmann about the uniqueness of ground state solutions of non-linear equations involving the fractional Laplacian and provide an alternate uniqueness proof for an equation related to the intermediate long-wave equation.

Isotropic hypoellipticity and trend to the equilibrium for the Fokker-Planck equation with high degree potential

Frédéric Hérau (2002)

Journées équations aux dérivées partielles

Similarity:

We consider the Fokker-Planck equation with a confining or anti-confining potential which behaves at infinity like a possibly high degree homogeneous function. Hypoellipticity techniques provide the well-posedness of the weak-Cauchy problem in both cases as well as instantaneous smoothing and exponential trend to equilibrium. Lower and upper bounds for the rate of convergence to equilibrium are obtained in terms of the lowest positive eigenvalue of the corresponding Witten laplacian,...
