Well-posedness and long time behavior in nonlinear dissipative hyperbolic-like evolutions with critical exponents

Abstract

These lectures present the analysis of stability and control of long time behavior of PDE models described by nonlinear evolutions of hyperbolic type. Specific examples of the models under consideration include: (i) nonlinear systems of dynamic elasticity: von Karman systems, Berger's equations, Kirchhoff - Boussinesq equations, nonlinear waves (ii) nonlinear flow - structure and fluid - structure interactions, (iii) and nonlinear thermo-elasticity. A characteristic feature of the models under consideration is criticality or super-criticality of sources (with respect to Sobolev's embeddings) along with super-criticality of damping mechanisms which, in addition, may be also geometrically constrained. Our aim is to present several methods relying on cancelations, harmonic analysis and geometric analysis, which enable to handle criticality and also super-criticality in both sources and the damping of the underlined nonlinear PDE. It turns out that if carefully analyzed the nonlinearity can be taken "advantage of" in order to produce implementable damping mechanism. Another goal of these lectures is the understanding of control mechanisms which are geometrically constrained. The final task boils down to showing that appropriately damped system is "quasi-stable" in the sense that any two trajectories approach each other exponentially fast up to a compact term which can grow in time. Showing this property- formulated as quasi-stability estimate -is the key and technically demanding issue that requires suitable tools. These include: weighted energy inequalities, compensated compactness, Carleman's estimates and some elements of microlocal analysis.

Renormalized Lambert-W Cascade and Finite-Time Amplification and Blowup for reconstructed b Dynamics on T^3 for the 3D Navier Stokes Equations

This article extracts and consolidates the renormalized Lambert-$W$ branch-point cascade, its distinguished phase reduction, the exact characteristic invariant and finite-time amplification mechanism, and the extended reconstructed $b_i$ equation on $\mathbb T^3$. Repeated historical derivations are removed while the principal proofs and terminal reconstruction estimates are retained. The presentation separates exact finite-depth statements from coupled-depth asymptotics and records the hypotheses required for the extended PDE reconstruction. This paper further supports a recent paper \cite {moschandreou2026exploration} published by the corresponding author which claims that the Navier Stokes equations lose smoothness in finite time from initial smooth data.

Unconditional uniqueness for the derivative nonlinear Schrödinger equation by normal form approach

We prove uniqueness of solutions to the Cauchy problem for the derivative nonlinear Schrödinger equation in $L^\infty_tH^{1/2}_x$. Our proof is based on the method of normal form reduction (NFR), which has been employed to obtain the uniqueness in $C_tH^s_x$, $s>1/2$. To overcome logarithmic divergences at the $H^{1/2}$ regularity, we exploit the $B^{0+}_{\infty,1}$ control of solutions provided by a refined Strichartz estimate. Our NFR argument consists of two stages: we first use NFR finitely many times to derive an intermediate equation in which the main cubic nonlinearity is restricted to a certain type of frequency interaction; we then apply the infinite NFR scheme to the intermediate equation. Moreover, we modify the usual NFR argument relying on continuity in time of solutions so that the uniqueness in the class $L^\infty_tH^{1/2}_x$ can be obtained directly.

Equivalence between solvability of the Dirichlet and Regularity problem under an $L^1$ Carleson condition on $\partial_t A$

We study an elliptic operator $L:=-\mathrm{div}(A\nabla \cdot)$ on the upper half space. It is known that solvability of the Regularity problem in $\dot{W}^{1,p}$ implies solvability of the adjoint Dirichlet problem in $L^{p'}$. Previously, Shen (2007) established a partial reverse result. In our work, we show that if we assume a mixed \(L^1-L^\infty\) condition on only \(|\partial_t A|\), the full reverse direction holds. As a result, we obtain equivalence between solvability of the Dirichlet problem $(D)^*_{p'}$ and the Regularity problem $(R)_p$ under this condition. As a further consequence, we can extend the class of operators for which the $L^p$ Regularity problem is solvable by operators satisfying the mixed $L^1-L^\infty$ condition. Additionally in the case of the upper half plane, this class includes operators satisfying this this mixed \(L^1-L^\infty\) condition.
