Local energy decay for several evolution equations on asymptotically euclidean manifolds

Jean-François Bony, Dietrich Häfner (2012)

Annales scientifiques de l'École Normale Supérieure

Similarity:

Let  P be a long range metric perturbation of the Euclidean Laplacian on  d , d 2 . We prove local energy decay for the solutions of the wave, Klein-Gordon and Schrödinger equations associated to  P . The problem is decomposed in a low and high frequency analysis. For the high energy part, we assume a non trapping condition. For low (resp. high) frequencies we obtain a general result about the local energy decay for the group e i t f ( P ) where f has a suitable development at zero (resp. infinity). ...

Global regularity for the 3D MHD system with damping

Zujin Zhang, Xian Yang (2016)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

We study the Cauchy problem for the 3D MHD system with damping terms ε | u | α - 1 u and δ | b | β - 1 b (ε, δ > 0 and α, β ≥ 1), and show that the strong solution exists globally for any α, β > 3. This improves the previous results significantly.

The energy class p is studied for 0 < p < 1. A characterization of certain bounded plurisubharmonic functions in terms of p and its pluricomplex p-energy is proved.

Vortex collisions and energy-dissipation rates in the Ginzburg–Landau heat flow. Part I: Study of the perturbed Ginzburg–Landau equation

Sylvia Serfaty (2007)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We study vortices for solutions of the perturbed Ginzburg–Landau equations Δ u + ( u / ε 2 ) ( 1 | u | 2 ) = f ε where f ε is estimated in L 2 . We prove upper bounds for the Ginzburg–Landau energy in terms of f ε L 2 , and obtain lower bounds for f ε L 2 in terms of the vortices when these form “unbalanced clusters” where i d i 2 ( i d i ) 2 . These results will serve in Part II of this paper to provide estimates on the energy-dissipation rates for solutions of the Ginzburg–Landau heat flow, which allow one to study various phenomena occurring in this flow,...

A Note on Calculation of Asymptotic Energy for a Functional of Ginzburg-Landau Type with Externally Imposed Lower-Order Oscillatory Term in One Dimension

Andrija Raguž (2007)

Bollettino dell'Unione Matematica Italiana

Similarity:

In this note we consider the Ginzburg-Landau functional I a ϵ ( v ) = 0 1 ( ϵ 2 v ′′ 2 ( s ) + W ( v ( s ) ) + a ( ϵ - β s ( v 2 ( s ) ) d s where β > 0 and a is 1-periodic. We determine how (rescaled) minimal asymptotic energy associated to I a ϵ depends on parameter β > 0 as ϵ ø 0 . In particular, our analysis shows that minimizers of I a ϵ are nearly ϵ 1 / 3 -periodic.

Weak and strong density results for the Dirichlet energy

Mariano Giaquinta, Domenico Mucci (2004)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

Let 𝒴 be a smooth oriented Riemannian manifold which is compact, connected, without boundary and with second homology group without torsion. In this paper we characterize the sequential weak closure of smooth graphs in B n × 𝒴 with equibounded Dirichlet energies, B n being the unit ball in n . More precisely, weak limits of graphs of smooth maps u k : B n 𝒴 with equibounded Dirichlet integral give rise to elements of the space cart 2 , 1 ( B n × 𝒴 ) (cf. [4], [5], [6]). In this paper we prove that every element T in cart 2 , 1 ( B n × 𝒴 ) is the...

On a bifurcation problem arising in cholesteric liquid crystal theory

Carlo Greco (2017)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

In a cholesteric liquid crystal the director field n ( x , y , z ) tends to form a right-angle helicoid around a twist axis in order to minimize the internal energy; however, a fixed alignment of the director field at the boundary (strong anchoring) can give rise to distorted configurations of the director field, as oblique helicoid, in order to save energy. The transition to this distorted configurations depend on the boundary conditions and on the geometry of the liquid crystal, and it is known...

A New L 1 -Lower Semicontinuity Result

Daniele Graziani (2007)

Bollettino dell'Unione Matematica Italiana

Similarity:

The aim of this work is to prove a chain rule and an L 1 -lower semicontinuity theorems for integral functional defined on B V ( Ω ) . Moreover we apply this result in order to obtain new relaxation and Γ -convergence result without any coerciveness and any continuity assumption of the integrand f ( x , s , p ) with respect to the variable s .

A reduced model for domain walls in soft ferromagnetic films at the cross-over from symmetric to asymmetric wall types

Lucas Döring, Radu Ignat, Felix Otto (2014)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We study the Landau-Lifshitz model for the energy of multi-scale transition layers – called “domain walls” – in soft ferromagnetic films. Domain walls separate domains of constant magnetization vectors m α ± 𝕊 2 that differ by an angle 2 α . Assuming translation invariance tangential to the wall, our main result is the rigorous derivation of a reduced model for the energy of the optimal transition layer, which in a certain parameter regime confirms the experimental, numerical and physical predictions:...

Relaxation and gamma-convergence of supremal functionals

Francesca Prinari (2006)

Bollettino dell'Unione Matematica Italiana

Similarity:

We prove that the Γ -limit in L μ of a sequence of supremal functionals of the form F k ( u ) = μ - ess sup Ω f k ( x , u ) is itself a supremal functional. We show by a counterexample that, in general, the function which represents the Γ -lim F ( , B ) of a sequence of functionals F k ( u , B ) = μ - ess sup B f k ( x , u ) can depend on the set B and wegive a necessary and sufficient condition to represent F in the supremal form F ( u , B ) = μ - ess sup B f ( x , u ) . As a corollary, if f represents a supremal functional, then the level convex envelope of f represents its weak* lower semicontinuous envelope. ...

On Relative γ k -Sets

Maddalena Bonanzinga, Filippo Cammaroto, Bruno A. Pansera (2007)

Bollettino dell'Unione Matematica Italiana

Similarity:

In this note we show a relative version of γ k -set introduced and studied in [12]. We give several characterizations of this property; in particular one of the characterizations is Ramsey theoretical. Also we give a result involving a property of the corresponding mapping between function spaces.

An Artificial Viscosity Approach to Quasistatic Crack Growth

Rodica Toader, Chiara Zanini (2009)

Bollettino dell'Unione Matematica Italiana

Similarity:

We introduce a new model of irreversible quasistatic crack growth in which the evolution of cracks is the limit of a suitably modified ϵ -gradient flow of the energy functional, as the "viscosity" parameter ϵ tends to zero.

Ground states of supersymmetric matrix models

Gian Michele Graf (1998-1999)

Séminaire Équations aux dérivées partielles

Similarity:

We consider supersymmetric matrix Hamiltonians. The existence of a zero-energy bound state, in particular for the d = 9 model, is of interest in M-theory. While we do not quite prove its existence, we show that the decay at infinity such a state would have is compatible with normalizability (and hence existence) in d = 9 . Moreover, it would be unique. Other values of d , where the situation is somewhat different, shall also be addressed. The analysis is based on a Born-Oppenheimer approximation....

Salvador García-Ferreira, Y. F. Ortiz-Castillo (2015)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

Let W be the subspace of * consisting of all weak P -points. It is not hard to see that W is a pseudocompact space. In this paper we shall prove that this space has stronger pseudocompact properties. Indeed, it is shown that W is a p -pseudocompact space for all p * .

Blow-up of the solution to the initial-value problem in nonlinear three-dimensional hyperelasticity

J. A. Gawinecki, P. Kacprzyk (2008)

Applicationes Mathematicae

Similarity:

We consider the initial value problem for the nonlinear partial differential equations describing the motion of an inhomogeneous and anisotropic hyperelastic medium. We assume that the stored energy function of the hyperelastic material is a function of the point x and the nonlinear Green-St. Venant strain tensor e j k . Moreover, we assume that the stored energy function is C with respect to x and e j k . In our description we assume that Piola-Kirchhoff’s stress tensor p j k depends on the tensor...

Congruences between modular forms and related modules

Miriam Ciavarella (2006)

Bollettino dell'Unione Matematica Italiana

Similarity:

We fix a prime and let M be an integer such that M ; let f S 2 ( Γ 1 ( M 2 ) ) be a newform supercuspidal of fixed type at and special at a finite set of primes. For an indefinite quaternion algebra over Q , of discriminant dividing the level of f , there is a local quaternionic Hecke algebra T associated to f . The algebra T acts on a module M f coming from the cohomology of a Shimura curve. Applying the Taylor-Wiles criterion and a recent Savitt's theorem, T is the universal deformation ring of a global...

Explicit solutions for a one-phase Stefan problem with temperature-dependent thermal conductivity

María F. Natale, Domingo A. Tarzia (2006)

Bollettino dell'Unione Matematica Italiana

Similarity:

We study a one-phase Stefan problem for a semi-infinite material with temperature-dependent thermal conductivity with a constant temperature or a heat flux condition of the type - q 0 / t ( q 0 > 0 ) at the fixed face x = 0 . We obtain in both cases sufficient conditions for data in order to have a parametric representation of the solution of the similarity type for t t 0 > 0 with t 0 an arbitrary positive time. These explicit solutions are obtained through the unique solution of an integral equation with the time...

Conductor and separating degrees for sets of points in r and in 1 × 1

Lucia Marino (2006)

Bollettino dell'Unione Matematica Italiana

Similarity:

We attempt to generalize conductor degree's results, known in 2 , to the case of 0-dimensional schemes of r . In the first part of this paper, we consider the problem of characterizing the sequences generators's degrees of the conductor which are compatible with a fixed postulation (or Hilbert function) for a set of points in r and we determine the conductor degree of every point in a r -partial intersection. In addition, we define the separating degree of a point for a 0-dimensional subscheme...

The range of the bigenus P 2 is one of the unsolved problems concerning smooth complex projective regular threefolds of general type with p g = 0 : The examples in the literature have P 2 5 . In the present paper we present a non-singular threefold with p g = q 1 = q 2 = 0 ; P 2 = 6 ; the bicanonical map is stably birational.

Eugenio Regazzini (2009)

Bollettino dell'Unione Matematica Italiana

Similarity:

Let f ( , t ) be the probability density function representing the solution of Kac's Boltzmann-like equation at time t , with initial data f 0 , and let g σ be the Gaussian density with zero mean and variance σ 2 , σ 2 being the value of the second moment of f 0 . Henry McKean Jr. put forward the conjecture that the total variation distance between f ( , t ) and g σ goes to zero, as t + , with an exponential rate equal to - 1 / 4 . This lecture aims at explaining the main efforts made to a view to validating this conjecture,...

The following results are proved: (i) if α , β + and A is a sectorial operator, then the set { t α A β ( t + A ) ; t > 0 } is bounded; (ii) the same set of operators is R-bounded if A is R-sectorial.

Stability and semiclassics in self-generated fields

László Erdős, Soren Fournais, Jan Philip Solovej (2013)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We consider non-interacting particles subject to a fixed external potential V and a self-generated magnetic field B . The total energy includes the field energy β B 2 and we minimize over all particle states and magnetic fields. In the case of spin-1/2 particles this minimization leads to the coupled Maxwell-Pauli system. The parameter β tunes the coupling strength between the field and the particles and it effectively determines the strength of the field. We investigate the stability and...

The Schreier Property and Gauss' Lemma

Daniel D. Anderson, Muhammad Zafrullah (2007)

Bollettino dell'Unione Matematica Italiana

Similarity:

Let D be an integral domain with quotient field D . Recall that D is Schreier if D is integrally closed and for all x , y , z D { 0 } , x | y z implies that x = r s where r | y e s | z . A GCD domain is Schreier. We show that an integral domain D is a GCD domain if and only if (i) for each pair a , b D { 0 } , there is a finitely generated ideal B such that a D b D = B v and (ii) every quadratic in D [ X ] that is a product of two linear polynomials in K [ X ] is a product of two linear polynomials in D [ X ] . We also show that D is Schreier if and only if every...

Three Dimensional Vortices in the Nonlinear Wave Equation

Marino Badiale, Vieri Benci, Sergio Rolando (2009)

Bollettino dell'Unione Matematica Italiana

Similarity:

We prove the existence of rotating solitary waves (vortices) for the nonlinear Klein-Gordon equation with nonnegative potential, by finding nonnegative cylindrical solutions to the standing equation - Δ u + μ | y | 2 u + λ u = g ( u ) , u H 1 ( N ) , N u 2 | y | 2 𝑑 x < , where x = ( y , z ) k × N - k , N > k 2 , μ > 0 and λ 0 . The nonnegativity of the potential makes the equation suitable for physical models and guarantees the wellposedness of the corresponding Cauchy problem, but it prevents the use of standard arguments in providing the functional associated to ( ) with bounded Palais-Smale...

Selfsimilar profiles in large time asymptotics of solutions to damped wave equations

Grzegorz Karch (2000)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

Large time behavior of solutions to the generalized damped wave equation u t t + A u t + ν B u + F ( x , t , u , u t , u ) = 0 for ( x , t ) n × [ 0 , ) is studied. First, we consider the linear nonhomogeneous equation, i.e. with F = F(x,t) independent of u. We impose conditions on the operators A and B, on F, as well as on the initial data which lead to the selfsimilar large time asymptotics of solutions. Next, this abstract result is applied to the equation where A u t = u t , B u = - Δ u , and the nonlinear term is either | u t | q - 1 u t or | u | α - 1 u . In this case, the asymptotic profile of solutions...

Strichartz and smoothing estimates for Schrödinger operators with large magnetic potentials in 3

M. Burak Erdoğan, Michael Goldberg, Wilhelm Schlag (2008)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We present a novel approach for bounding the resolvent of H = - Δ + i ( A · + · A ) + V = : - Δ + L 1 for large energies. It is shown here that there exist a large integer m and a large number λ 0 so that relative to the usual weighted L 2 -norm, ( L ( - Δ + ( λ + i 0 ) ) - 1 ) m < 1 2 2 for all λ > λ 0 . This requires suitable decay and smoothness conditions on A , V . The estimate (2) is trivial when A = 0 , but difficult for large A since the gradient term exactly cancels the natural decay of the free resolvent. To obtain (2), we introduce a conical decomposition of the resolvent and...

On 𝒜 ( 𝕊 1 ) we define the following norm u = u L ( 𝕊 1 ) + ( 𝔻 | u ~ | 2 ) 1 / 2 where is the harmonic extension of u to 𝔻 . We prove that every isomorphism of the functional algebra 𝒜 ( 𝕊 1 ) is a quasitsymmetric change of variables on 𝕊 1 .

The semilinear differential equation (1), (2), (3), in × Ω with Ω N , (a nonlinear wave equation) is studied. In particular for Ω = 3 , the existence is shown of a weak solution u ( t , x ) , periodic with period T , non-constant with respect to t , and radially symmetric in the spatial variables, that is of the form u ( t , x ) = ν ( t , | x | ) . The proof is based on a distributional interpretation for a linear equation corresponding to the given problem, on the Paley-Wiener criterion for the Laplace Transform, and on the alternative...

In analogy with the theory of the modular representations, we will introduce the analogue of Mazur's Hecke...

We study the problem of correctors in the framework of the homogenization of linear parabolic equations posed in a heterogeneous medium Ω made of two materials. The first one is located in a set F ϵ of cylindrical parallel fibers periodically distributed with a period of size ϵ , and the second one is located in the "matrix" M ϵ = Ω F ϵ . The ratio between the conductivity coefficients of the two materials is of order 1 / ϵ 2 . After writing the homogenized problem, we give a corrector result and prove...

A Result About C 2 -Rectifiability of One-Dimensional Rectifiable Sets. Application to a Class of One-Dimensional Integral Currents

Silvano Delladio (2007)

Bollettino dell'Unione Matematica Italiana

Similarity:

Let γ , τ : [ a , b ] R k + 1 be a couple of Lipschitz maps such that γ = ± | γ | τ almost everywhere in [ a , b ] . Then γ ( [ a , b ] ) is a C 2 -rectifiable set, namely it may be covered by countably many curves of class C 2 embedded in R k + 1 . As a conseguence, projecting the rectifiable carrier of a one-dimensional generalized Gauss graph provides a C 2 -rectifiable set.
