Abstract

In this paper, two kinds of occurrence mechanism on the phenomenon of concentration and the formation of delta shock waves are analyzed and identified in the flux approximation limit of Riemann solutions to the extended Chaplygin gas equations with Coulomb-like friction, whose special case can also be seen as the model of the magnetogasdynamics with Coulomb-like friction. Firstly, by introducing a transformation, the Riemann problem for the extended Chaplygin gas equations with Coulomb-like friction is solved completely. Secondly, we rigorously show that, as the pressure vanishes, any two-shock Riemann solution to the nonhomogeneous extended Chaplygin gas equations tends to a δ-shock solution to the corresponding nonhomogeneous transportation equations, and the intermediate density between the two shocks tends to a weighted δ-measure that forms the δ-shock; any two-rarefaction-wave Riemann solution to the nonhomogeneous extended Chaplygin gas equations tends to a two-contact-discontinuity solution to the correspongding nonhomogeneous transportation equations, and the nonvacuum intermediate state between the two rarefaction waves tends to a vacuum state. At last, we also show that, as the pressure approaches the generalized Chaplygin pressure, any two-shock Riemann solution to the nonhomogeneous extended Chaplygin gas equations tends to a delta-shock solution to the correspongding nonhomogeneous generalized Chaplygin gas equations. In a word, we have generalized all the results about the vanishing pressure limit now available for homogeneous equations to the nonhomogeneous case.

A linear test approach to global controllability of third- and fifth-order nonlinear dispersive equations

We investigate third- and fifth-order nonlinear dispersive equations of KdV type on the torus and establishes approximate controllability by a fixed four-dimensional control; rather than relying solely on the saturation machinery, the analysis exploits the finite-dimensional controllability of the inviscid Burgers equation linearized around a carefully constructed return trajectory, with the trajectory itself obtained from an observable family. This ``linear test" strategy, yields more information about the structure of the control than the standard approach. In particular, the constructed control is shown to depend continuously on the initial and target states, a property that is by no means automatic in nonlinear control problems, and to decompose as a bounded linear operator applied to the data plus a fixed remainder, with the operator part interestingly independent of the order of dispersion.

A conditional Lagrangian clock barrier at the $C^{1,\frac{1}{3}}$ threshold for axisymmetric Euler without swirl

We consider axisymmetric no-swirl solutions to the three-dimensional incompressible Euler equations, with initial velocity in $C^{1,α}\cap L^2$, where $α\in\left[\frac{1}{3},1\right)$. In a major breakthrough, Shkoller introduced a clock-and-driver framework that he used in order to prove finite-time type I blow-up below the $C^{1,\frac{1}{3}}$ threshold in this setting. Motivated by this, we define Lagrangian classes of coherent conditional solutions for which the same mechanism yields a supercritical-critical barrier to blow-up when $α\geq\frac{1}{3}$. When $α>\frac{1}{3}$, the aforementioned barrier is genuinely depleted, whereas at the critical endpoint $α=\frac{1}{3}$, we obtain an exponential bound preventing blow-up. In the general case, we formulate a matrix-clock criterion in terms of the smallest singular value of the deformation gradient and show that, under transverse cusp-tail, longitudinal, off-clock, Dini, and suitable geometric coherence hypotheses, this singular value cannot collapse in finite time. In particular, we also show that the class of such coherent solutions includes the smooth ones locally in time. In the on-axis case, the criterion reduces to the scalar clock inequality $\displaystyle \dot{J}(t)\gtrsim -B(t)J(t)-CJ(t)^{3α}$, which rules out Shkoller-type clock collapse for $α\geq\frac{1}{3}$. These results do not enlarge the known Lorentz-space global regularity classes. Rather, they in particular identify the supercritical Lagrangian obstruction dual to Shkoller's subcritical blow-up mechanism in the case $α>\frac{1}{3}$.
