On Carleman estimates for elliptic and parabolic operators. Applications to unique continuation and control of parabolic equations

Jérôme Le Rousseau, Gilles Lebeau (2012)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Local and global Carleman estimates play a central role in the study of some partial differential equations regarding questions such as unique continuation and controllability. We survey and prove such estimates in the case of elliptic and parabolic operators by means of semi-classical microlocal techniques. Optimality results for these estimates and some of their consequences are presented. We point out the connexion of these optimality results to the local phase-space geometry after conjugation...

On Cauchy problem for the equations of reactor kinetics.

Jan Kyncl (1989)

Aplikace matematiky

In this paper, the initial value problem for the equations of reactor kinetics is solved and the temperature feedback is taken into account. The space where the problem is solved is chosen in such a way that it may correspond best of all to the mathematical properties of the cross-section models. The local solution is found by the method of iterations, its uniqueness is proved and it is shown also that existence of global solution is ensured in the most cases. Finally, the problem of mild solution...

On caustics associated with Rossby waves

Arthur D. Gorman (1996)

Applications of Mathematics

Rossby wave equations characterize a class of wave phenomena occurring in geophysical fluid dynamics. One technique useful in the analysis of these waves is the geometrical optics, or multi-dimensional WKB technique. Near caustics, e.g., in critical regions, this technique does not apply. A related technique that does apply near caustics is the Lagrange Manifold Formalism. Here we apply the Lagrange Manifold Formalism to study Rossby waves near caustics.

On caustics associated with the linearized vorticity equation

Petya N. Ivanova, Arthur D. Gorman (1998)

Applications of Mathematics

The linearized vorticity equation serves to model a number of wave phenomena in geophysical fluid dynamics. One technique that has been applied to this equation is the geometrical optics, or multi-dimensional WKB technique. Near caustics, this technique does not apply. A related technique that does apply near caustics is the Lagrange Manifold Formalism. Here we apply the Lagrange Manifold Formalism to determine an asymptotic solution of the linearized vorticity equation and to study associated wave...

On dynamics of fluids in meteorology

Lukáš Poul (2008)

Open Mathematics

We consider the full Navier-Stokes-Fourier system of equations on an unbounded domain with prescribed nonvanishing boundary conditions for the density and temperature at infinity. The topic of this article continues author’s previous works on existence of the Navier-Stokes-Fourier system on nonsmooth domains. The procedure deeply relies on the techniques developed by Feireisl and others in the series of works on compressible, viscous and heat conducting fluids.

On evolution Galerkin methods for the Maxwell and the linearized Euler equations

Mária Lukáčová-Medviďová, Jitka Saibertová, Gerald G. Warnecke, Yousef Zahaykah (2004)

Applications of Mathematics

The subject of the paper is the derivation and analysis of evolution Galerkin schemes for the two dimensional Maxwell and linearized Euler equations. The aim is to construct a method which takes into account better the infinitely many directions of propagation of waves. To do this the initial function is evolved using the characteristic cone and then projected onto a finite element space. We derive the divergence-free property and estimate the dispersion relation as well. We present some numerical...

On evolution inequalities of a modified Navier-Stokes type. III

Manfred Müller, Joachim Naumann (1979)

Aplikace matematiky

This is the last from a series of three papers dealing with variational equations of Navier-Stokes type. It is shown that the theoretical results from the preceding parts (existence and regularity of solutions) can be applied to the problem of motion of a fluid through a tube.

On evolution inequalities of a modified Navier-Stokes type. I

Manfred Müller, Joachim Naumann (1978)

Aplikace matematiky

The paper present an existence theorem for a strong solution to an abstract evolution inequality where the properties of the operators involved are motivated by a type of modified Navier-Stokes equations under certain unilateral boundary conditions. The method of proof rests upon a Galerkin type argument combined with the regularization of the functional.

On evolution inequalities of a modified Navier-Stokes type. II

Manfred Müller, Joachim Naumann (1978)

Aplikace matematiky

The present part of the paper continues the study of the abstract evolution inequality from the first part. Theorem 1 states the existence and uniqueness of a weak solution to the evolution inequality under consideration. The proof is based on the method of approximation of the weak solution by a sequence of strong solutions. Theorem 2 yields two regularity results for the strong solution.

On evolutionary Navier-Stokes-Fourier type systems in three spatial dimensions

Miroslav Bulíček, Roger Lewandowski, Josef Málek (2011)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

In this paper, we establish the large-data and long-time existence of a suitable weak solution to an initial and boundary value problem driven by a system of partial differential equations consisting of the Navier-Stokes equations with the viscosity ν polynomially increasing with a scalar quantity k that evolves according to an evolutionary convection diffusion equation with the right hand side ν ( k ) | 𝖣 ( v ) | 2 that is merely L 1 -integrable over space and time. We also formulate a conjecture concerning regularity...

On exact controllability for the Navier-Stokes equations

O. Yu. Imanuvilov (2010)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

We study the local exact controllability problem for the Navier-Stokes equations that describe an incompressible fluid flow in a bounded domain with control distributed in an arbitrary fixed subdomain. The result that we obtain in this paper is as follows. Suppose that we have a given stationary point of the Navier-Stokes equations and our initial condition is sufficiently close to it. Then there exists a locally distributed control such that in a given moment of time the solution of the Navier-Stokes...
