We prove the local existence of solutions for equations of motion of a viscous compressible barotropic fluid in a domain bounded by a free surface. The solutions are shown to exist in exactly those function spaces where global solutions were found in our previous papers [14, 15].
The existence of global solutions and the phenomenon of blow-up of a solution in finite time for a recently derived shallow water equation are studied. We prove that the only way a classical solution could blow-up is as a breaking wave for which we determine the exact blow-up rate and, in some cases, the blow-up set. Using the correspondence between the shallow water equation and the geodesic flow on the manifold of diffeomorphisms of the line endowed with a weak Riemannian structure, we give sufficient...
A simple proof of the existence of solutions for the two-dimensional Keller-Segel model with measures with all the atoms less than 8π as the initial data is given. This result was obtained by Senba and Suzuki (2002) and Bedrossian and Masmoudi (2014) using different arguments. Moreover, we show a uniform bound for the existence time of solutions as well as an optimal hypercontractivity estimate.
This paper has two objectives. First, we prove the existence of solutions to the general advection-diffusion equation subject to a reasonably smooth initial condition. We investigate the behavior of the solution of these problems for large values of time. Secondly, a numerical scheme using the Sinc-Galerkin method is developed to approximate the solution of a simple model of turbulence, which is a special case of the advection-diffusion equation, known as Burgers' equation. The approximate solution...
This work is devoted to the study of the initial boundary value problem for a general non isothermal model of capillary fluids derived by J. E Dunn and J. Serrin (1985) in [9, 16], which can be used as a phase transition model.We distinguish two cases, when the physical coefficients depend only on the density, and the general case. In the first case we can work in critical scaling spaces, and we prove global existence of solution and uniqueness for data close to a stable equilibrium. For general...
