Invariant weighted Wiener measures and almost sure global well-posedness for the periodic derivative NLS

Andrea R. Nahmod, Tadahiro Oh, Luc Rey-Bellet, Gigliola Staffilani (2012)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

We construct an invariant weighted Wiener measure associated to the periodic derivative nonlinear Schrödinger equation in one dimension and establish global well-posedness for data living in its support. In particular almost surely for data in a Fourier–Lebesgue space L s , r ( T ) with s 1 2 , 2 < r < 4 , ( s - 1 ) r < - 1 and scaling like H 1 2 - ϵ ( 𝕋 ) , for small ϵ > 0 . We also show the invariance of this measure.

Linear hyperbolic problems in the whole scale of Sobolev-type spaces of periodic functions

Irina Kmit (2007)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

We study one-dimensional linear hyperbolic systems with L -coefficients subjected to periodic conditions in time and reflection boundary conditions in space. We derive a priori estimates and give an operator representation of solutions in the whole scale of Sobolev-type spaces of periodic functions. These spaces give an optimal regularity trade-off for our problem.

Liouville-type theorems and asymptotic behavior of nodal radial solutions of semilinear heat equations

Thomas Bartsch, Peter Poláčik, Pavol Quittner (2011)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

We prove a Liouville type theorem for sign-changing radial solutions of a subcritical semilinear heat equation u t = Δ u + u p - 1 u . We use this theorem to derive a priori bounds, decay estimates, and initial and final blow-up rates for radial solutions of rather general semilinear parabolic equations whose nonlinearities have a subcritical polynomial growth. Further consequences on the existence of steady states and time-periodic solutions are also shown.

Mathematical models of suspension bridges

Gabriela Tajčová (1997)

Applications of Mathematics

In this work we try to explain various mathematical models describing the dynamical behaviour of suspension bridges such as the Tacoma Narrows bridge. Our attention is concentrated on the derivation of these models, an interpretation of particular parameters and on a discussion of their advantages and disadvantages. Our work should be a starting point for a qualitative study of dynamical structures of this type and that is why we have a closer look at the models, which have not been studied in literature...

Maximal regularity of the spatially periodic Stokes operator and application to nematic liquid crystal flows

Jonas Sauer (2016)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

We consider the dynamics of spatially periodic nematic liquid crystal flows in the whole space and prove existence and uniqueness of local-in-time strong solutions using maximal L p -regularity of the periodic Laplace and Stokes operators and a local-in-time existence theorem for quasilinear parabolic equations à la Clément-Li (1993). Maximal regularity of the Laplace and the Stokes operator is obtained using an extrapolation theorem on the locally compact abelian group G : = n - 1 × / L to obtain an -bound for the...

Modeling of the resonance of an acoustic wave in a torus

Jérôme Adou, Adama Coulibaly, Narcisse Dakouri (2013)

Annales mathématiques Blaise Pascal

A pneumatic tyre in rotating motion with a constant angular velocity Ω is assimilated to a torus whose generating circle has a radius R . The contact of the tyre with the ground is schematized as an ellipse with semi-major axis a . When ( Ω R / C 0 ) 1 and ( a / R ) 1 (where C 0 is the velocity of the sound), we show that at the rapid time scale R / C 0 , the air motion within a torus periodically excited on its surface generates an acoustic wave h . A study of this acoustic wave is conducted and shows that the mode associated to...

Nonlinear models of suspension bridges: discussion of the results

Pavel Drábek, Gabriela Holubová, Aleš Matas, Petr Nečesal (2003)

Applications of Mathematics

In this paper we present several nonlinear models of suspension bridges; most of them have been introduced by Lazer and McKenna. We discuss some results which were obtained by the authors and other mathematicians for the boundary value problems and initial boundary value problems. Our intention is to point out the character of these results and to show which mathematical methods were used to prove them instead of giving precise proofs and statements.

Nonlinear vibrations of completely resonant wave equations

Massimiliano Berti (2007)

Banach Center Publications

We present recent existence results of small amplitude periodic and quasi-periodic solutions of completely resonant nonlinear wave equations. Both infinite-dimensional bifurcation phenomena and small divisors difficulties occur. The proofs rely on bifurcation theory, Nash-Moser implicit function theorems, dynamical systems techniques and variational methods.
