Asymptotic self-similar blow-up for a model of aggregation

Ignacio Guerra (2004)

Banach Center Publications

In this article we consider a system of equations that describes a class of mass-conserving aggregation phenomena, including gravitational collapse and bacterial chemotaxis. In spatial dimensions strictly larger than two, and under the assumptions of radial symmetry, it is known that this system has at least two stable mechanisms of singularity formation (see e.g. M. P. Brenner et al. 1999, Nonlinearity 12, 1071-1098); one type is self-similar, and may be viewed as a trade-off between diffusion...

Asymptotic stability of stationary solutions to the drift-diffusion model in the whole space

Ryo Kobayashi, Masakazu Yamamoto, Shuichi Kawashima (2012)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

We study the initial value problem for the drift-diffusion model arising in semiconductor device simulation and plasma physics. We show that the corresponding stationary problem in the whole space ℝn admits a unique stationary solution in a general situation. Moreover, it is proved that when n ≥ 3, a unique solution to the initial value problem exists globally in time and converges to the corresponding stationary solution as time tends to infinity, provided that the amplitude of the stationary solution...

Asymptotically self-similar solutions for the parabolic system modelling chemotaxis

Yūki Naito (2006)

Banach Center Publications

We consider a nonlinear parabolic system modelling chemotaxis u t = · ( u - u v ) , v t = Δ v + u in ℝ², t > 0. We first prove the existence of time-global solutions, including self-similar solutions, for small initial data, and then show the asymptotically self-similar behavior for a class of general solutions.

Asymptotics for conservation laws involving Lévy diffusion generators

Piotr Biler, Grzegorz Karch, Wojbor A. Woyczyński (2001)

Studia Mathematica

Let -ℒ be the generator of a Lévy semigroup on L¹(ℝⁿ) and f: ℝ → ℝⁿ be a nonlinearity. We study the large time asymptotic behavior of solutions of the nonlocal and nonlinear equations uₜ + ℒu + ∇·f(u) = 0, analyzing their L p -decay and two terms of their asymptotics. These equations appear as models of physical phenomena that involve anomalous diffusions such as Lévy flights.

Asymptotics for large time of solutions to nonlinear system associated with the penetration of a magnetic field into a substance

Temur A. Jangveladze, Zurab V. Kiguradze (2010)

Applications of Mathematics

The nonlinear integro-differential system associated with the penetration of a magnetic field into a substance is considered. The asymptotic behavior as t of solutions for two initial-boundary value problems are studied. The problem with non-zero conditions on one side of the lateral boundary is discussed. The problem with homogeneous boundary conditions is studied too. The rates of convergence are given. Results presented show the difference between stabilization characters of solutions of these...

Asymptotics of parabolic equations with possible blow-up

Radosław Czaja (2004)

Colloquium Mathematicae

We describe the long-time behaviour of solutions of parabolic equations in the case when some solutions may blow up in a finite or infinite time. This is done by providing a maximal compact invariant set attracting any initial data for which the corresponding solution does not blow up. The abstract result is applied to the Frank-Kamenetskii equation and the N-dimensional Navier-Stokes system with small external force.

Atherosclerosis Initiation Modeled as an Inflammatory Process

N. El Khatib, S. Génieys, V. Volpert (2010)

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

In this work we study the inflammatory process resulting in the development of atherosclerosis. We develop a one- and two-dimensional models based on reaction-diffusion systems to describe the set up of a chronic inflammatory response in the intima of an artery vessel wall. The concentration of the oxidized low density lipoproteins (ox-LDL) in the intima is the critical parameter of the model. Low ox-LDL concentrations do not lead to a chronic inflammatory reaction. Intermediate ox-LDL concentrations...
