Partial Hölder continuity results for solutions of non linear non variational elliptic systems with limit controlled growth

Luisa Fattorusso, Giovanna Idone (2002)

Bollettino dell'Unione Matematica Italiana

Let Ω be a bounded open subset of R n , n > 4 , of class C 2 . Let u H 2 Ω a solution of elliptic non linear non variational system a x , u , D u , H u = b x , u , D u where a x , u , μ , ξ and b x , u , μ are vectors in R N , N 1 , measurable in x , continuous in u , μ , ξ and u , μ respectively. Here, we demonstrate that if b x , u , μ has limit controlled growth, if a x , u , μ , ξ is of class C 1 in ξ and satisfies the Campanato condition A and, together with a ξ , certain continuity assumptions, then the vector D u is partially Hölder continuous for every exponent α < 1 - n p .

Partial regularity of solution to generalized Navier-Stokes problem

Václav Mácha (2014)

Open Mathematics

In the presented work, we study the regularity of solutions to the generalized Navier-Stokes problem up to a C 2 boundary in dimensions two and three. The point of our generalization is an assumption that a deviatoric part of a stress tensor depends on a shear rate and on a pressure. We focus on estimates of the Hausdorff measure of a singular set which is defined as a complement of a set where a solution is Hölder continuous. We use so-called indirect approach to show partial regularity, for dimension...

Partly dissipative systems in uniformly local spaces

Alexandre N. Carvalho, Tomasz Dlotko (2004)

Colloquium Mathematicae

We study the existence of attractors for partly dissipative systems in ℝⁿ. For these systems we prove the existence of global attractors with attraction properties and compactness in a slightly weaker topology than the topology of the phase space. We obtain abstract results extending the usual theory to encompass such two-topologies attractors. These results are applied to the FitzHugh-Nagumo equations in ℝⁿ and to Field-Noyes equations in ℝ. Some embeddings between uniformly local spaces are also...

Pattern Formation Induced by Time-Dependent Advection

A. V. Straube, A. Pikovsky (2010)

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

We study pattern-forming instabilities in reaction-advection-diffusion systems. We develop an approach based on Lyapunov-Bloch exponents to figure out the impact of a spatially periodic mixing flow on the stability of a spatially homogeneous state. We deal with the flows periodic in space that may have arbitrary time dependence. We propose a discrete in time model, where reaction, advection, and diffusion act as successive operators, and show that...

Patterns and Waves Generated by a Subcritical Instability in Systems with a Conservation Law under the Action of a Global Feedback Control

Y. Kanevsky, A.A. Nepomnyashchy (2010)

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

A global feedback control of a system that exhibits a subcritical monotonic instability at a non-zero wavenumber (short-wave, or Turing instability) in the presence of a zero mode is investigated using a Ginzburg-Landau equation coupled to an equation for the zero mode. The method based on a variational principle is applied for the derivation of a low-dimensional evolution model. In the framework of this model the investigation of the system’s dynamics...

PDE models for chemotactic movements: Parabolic, hyperbolic and kinetic

Benoît Perthame (2004)

Applications of Mathematics

Modeling the movement of cells (bacteria, amoeba) is a long standing subject and partial differential equations have been used several times. The most classical and successful system was proposed by Patlak and Keller & Segel and is formed of parabolic or elliptic equations coupled through a drift term. This model exhibits a very deep mathematical structure because smooth solutions exist for small initial norm (in the appropriate space) and blow-up for large norms. This reflects experiments on...

Peak solutions for an elliptic system of FitzHugh-Nagumo type

Edward Norman Dancer, Shusen Yan (2003)

Annali della Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa - Classe di Scienze

The aim of this paper is to study the existence of various types of peak solutions for an elliptic system of FitzHugh-Nagumo type. We prove that the system has a single peak solution, which concentrates near the boundary of the domain. Under some extra assumptions, we also construct multi-peak solutions with all the peaks near the boundary, and a single peak solution with its peak near an interior point of the domain.

Penalization of Dirichlet optimal control problems

Eduardo Casas, Mariano Mateos, Jean-Pierre Raymond (2009)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

We apply Robin penalization to Dirichlet optimal control problems governed by semilinear elliptic equations. Error estimates in terms of the penalization parameter are stated. The results are compared with some previous ones in the literature and are checked by a numerical experiment. A detailed study of the regularity of the solutions of the PDEs is carried out.
