-error estimates of the extrapolated Crank-Nicolson discontinuous Galerkin approximations for nonlinear Sobolev equations.
The aim of this note is to give a short review of our recent work (see [5]) with Miguel A. Alejo and Luis Vega, concerning the -stability, and asymptotic stability, of the -soliton of the Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation.
The -stability (instability) of a binary nonlinear reaction diffusion system of P.D.E.s - either under Dirichlet or Neumann boundary data - is considered. Conditions allowing the reduction to a stability (instability) problem for a linear binary system of O.D.E.s are furnished. A peculiar Liapunov functional linked (together with the time derivative along the solutions) by direct simple relations to the eigenvalues, is used.
We prove existence of weak solutions to nonlinear parabolic systems with p-Laplacians terms in the principal part. Next, in the case of diagonal systems an -estimate for weak solutions is shown under additional restrictive growth conditions. Finally, -estimates for weakly nondiagonal systems (where nondiagonal elements are absorbed by diagonal ones) are proved. The -estimates are obtained by the Di Benedetto methods.
Existence of weak solutions and an -estimate are shown for nonlinear nondegenerate parabolic systems with linear growth conditions with respect to the gradient. The -estimate is proved for equations with coefficients continuous with respect to x and t in the general main part, and for diagonal systems with coefficients satisfying the Carathéodory condition.
In this paper, we consider the global existence, uniqueness and estimates of weak solutions to quasilinear parabolic equation of -Laplacian type in with zero Dirichlet boundary condition in . Further, we obtain the estimate of the solution and for with the initial data
We study the decay in time of the spatial -norm (1 ≤ p ≤ ∞) of solutions to parabolic conservation laws with dispersive and dissipative terms added uₜ - uₓₓₜ - νuₓₓ + buₓ = f(u)ₓ or uₜ + uₓₓₓ - νuₓₓ + buₓ = f(u)ₓ, and we show that under general assumptions about the nonlinearity, solutions of the nonlinear equations have the same long time behavior as their linearizations at the zero solution.
We propose and analyze a semi Lagrangian method for the convection-diffusion equation. Error estimates for both semi and fully discrete finite element approximations are obtained for convection dominated flows. The estimates are posed in terms of the projections constructed in [Chrysafinos and Walkington, SIAM J. Numer. Anal. 43 (2006) 2478–2499; Chrysafinos and Walkington, SIAM J. Numer. Anal. 44 (2006) 349–366] and the dependence of various constants upon the diffusion parameter is ...
We present a method for the generation of a pure quad mesh approximating a discrete manifold of arbitrary topology that preserves the patch layout characterizing the intrinsic object structure. A three-step procedure constitutes the core of our approach which first extracts the patch layout of the object by a topological partitioning of the digital shape, then computes the minimal surface given by the boundaries of the patch layout (basic quad layout) and then evolves it towards the object boundaries....
Consider a one dimensional nonlinear reaction-diffusion equation (KPP equation) with non-homogeneous second order term, discontinuous initial condition and small parameter. For points ahead of the Freidlin-KPP front, the solution tends to 0 and we obtain sharp asymptotics (i.e. non logarithmic). Our study follows the work of Ben Arous and Rouault who solved this problem in the homogeneous case. Our proof is probabilistic, and is based on the Feynman-Kac formula and the large deviation principle...
