L 2 -type contraction for systems of conservation laws

Denis Serre, Alexis F. Vasseur (2014)

Journal de l’École polytechnique — Mathématiques

The semi-group associated with the Cauchy problem for a scalar conservation law is known to be a contraction in L 1 . However it is not a contraction in L p for any p > 1 . Leger showed in [20] that for a convex flux, it is however a contraction in L 2 up to a suitable shift. We investigate in this paper whether such a contraction may happen for systems. The method is based on the relative entropy method. Our general analysis leads us to the new geometrical notion of Genuinely non-Temple systems. We treat in...

L 2 well-posed Cauchy problems and symmetrizability of first order systems

Guy Métivier (2014)

Journal de l’École polytechnique — Mathématiques

The Cauchy problem for first order system L ( t , x , t , x ) is known to be well-posed in L 2 when it admits a microlocal symmetrizer S ( t , x , ξ ) which is smooth in ξ and Lipschitz continuous in ( t , x ) . This paper contains three main results. First we show that a Lipschitz smoothness globally in ( t , x , ξ ) is sufficient. Second, we show that the existence of symmetrizers with a given smoothness is equivalent to the existence of full symmetrizers having the same smoothness. This notion was first introduced in [FL67]. This is the key point...

L - L 2 weighted estimate for the wave equation with potential

Vladimir Georgiev, Nicola Visciglia (2003)

Atti della Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei. Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali. Rendiconti Lincei. Matematica e Applicazioni

We consider a potential type perturbation of the three dimensional wave equation and we establish a dispersive estimate for the associated propagator. The main estimate is proved under the assumption that the potential V 0 satisfies V x C 1 + x 2 + ϵ 0 , where ϵ 0 > 0 .

L p -decay of solutions to dissipative-dispersive perturbations of conservation laws

Grzegorz Karch (1997)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

We study the decay in time of the spatial L p -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.

L p - L q -Time decay estimate for solution of the Cauchy problem for hyperbolic partial differential equations of linear thermoelasticity

Jerzy Gawinecki (1991)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

We prove the L p - L q -time decay estimates for the solution of the Cauchy problem for the hyperbolic system of partial differential equations of linear thermoelasticity. In our proof based on the matrix of fundamental solutions to the system we use Strauss-Klainerman’s approach [12], [5] to the L p - L q -time decay estimates.

L2 stability analysis of the central discontinuous Galerkin method and a comparison between the central and regular discontinuous Galerkin methods

Yingjie Liu, Chi-Wang Shu, Eitan Tadmor, Mengping Zhang (2008)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis


We prove stability and derive error estimates for the recently introduced central discontinuous Galerkin method, in the context of linear hyperbolic equations with possibly discontinuous solutions. A comparison between the central discontinuous Galerkin method and the regular discontinuous Galerkin method in this context is also made. Numerical experiments are provided to validate the quantitative conclusions from the analysis.
