A very singular solution for the dual porous medium equation and the asymptotic behaviour of general solutions.
We shall prove a weak comparison principle for quasilinear elliptic operators that includes the negative -Laplace operator, where satisfies certain conditions frequently seen in the research of quasilinear elliptic operators. In our result, it is characteristic that functions which are compared belong to different spaces.
In the theory of elliptic equations, the technique of Schwarz symmetrization is one of the tools used to obtain a priori bounds for classical and weak solutions in terms of general information on the data. A basic result says that, in the absence of lower-order terms, the symmetric rearrangement of the solution of an elliptic equation, that we write , can be compared pointwise with the solution of the symmetrized problem. The main question we address here is the modification of the method to...
This is a report on project initiated with Anne Nouri [3], presently in progress, with the collaboration of Nicolas Besse [2] ([2] is mainly the material of this report) . It concerns a version of the Vlasov equation where the self interacting potential is replaced by a Dirac mass. Emphasis is put on the relations between the linearized version, the full non linear problem and also on natural connections with several other equations of mathematical physic.
The main result of this talk is a global existence theorem for the water waves equation with smooth, small, and decaying at infinity Cauchy data. We obtain moreover an asymptotic description in physical coordinates of the solution, which shows that modified scattering holds.The proof is based on a bootstrap argument involving and estimates. The bounds are proved in the paper [5]. They rely on a normal forms paradifferential method allowing one to obtain energy estimates on the Eulerian formulation...
This paper is devoted to a conditional stability estimate related to the ill-posed Cauchy problems for the Laplace's equation in domains with C1,1 boundary. It is an extension of an earlier result of [Phung, ESAIM: COCV9 (2003) 621–635] for domains of class C∞. Our estimate is established by using a Carleman estimate near the boundary in which the exponential weight depends on the distance function to the boundary. Furthermore, we prove that this stability estimate is nearly optimal and induces...
Le but de cette note est de montrer que le principe du maximum, même dans une version affaiblie, n’est pas vérifıé pour la classe des opérateurs paraboliques du type , où L est un opérateur différentiel elliptique d’ordre 2 sous forme divergence à coefficients complexes mesurables et bornés en dimension supérieure ou égale à 5. Le principe de démonstration repose sur un résultat abstrait de la théorie des semi-groupes permettant d’utiliser le contre-exemple présenté dans [MNP] à la régularité des...
