Abstract

Consider the nonlinear and completely continuous scattering map \[ \mathcal{S}\big((Ω; λ, μ, V), \mathbf{u}^i\big)=\mathbf{u}_t^\infty(\hat{\mathbf{x}}), \quad \hat{\mathbf{x}}\in\mathbb{S}^{n-1}, \] which sends an inhomogeneous elastic scatterer $(Ω; λ, μ, V)$ to its far-field pattern $\mathbf{u}_t^\infty$ due to an incident wave field $\mathbf{u}^i$ via the Lamé system. Here, $(λ, μ, V)$ signifies the medium configuration of an elastic scatterer that is compactly supported in $Ω$. In this paper, we are concerned with the intrinsic geometric structure of the kernel space of $\mathcal{S}$, which is of fundamental importance to the theory of inverse scattering and invisibility cloaking for elastic waves and has received considerable attention recently. It turns out that the study is contained in analysing the geometric properties of a certain non-selfadjoint and non-elliptic transmission eigenvalue problem. We propose a generalized elastic transmission eigenvalue problem and prove that the transmission eigenfunctions vanish locally around a corner of $\partialΩ$ under generic regularity criteria. The regularity criteria are characerized by the Hölder continuity or a certain Fourier extension property of the transmission eigenfunctions. As an interesting and significant application, we apply the local geometric property to derive several novel unique identifiability results for a longstanding inverse elastic problem by a single far-field measurement.

Blow-Up Dynamics for the $L^2$ critical case of the $2$D Zakharov-Kuznetsov equation

We study blow-up dynamics for the $L^2$-critical cubic Zakharov--Kuznetsov equation in two dimensions, \[ \partial_tu+\partial_{x_1}(Δu+u^3)=0 \qquad\text{on }\mathbb R^2. \] For a class of localized $H^1$ perturbations of the ground state $Q$, we establish a trichotomy near the soliton manifold: exit from a small $L^2$-tube, global asymptotic stability, or finite-time blow-up. In the stable blow-up regime, the solution concentrates a single bubble and \[ λ(t)\sim \ell_0(T-t)^{1/(3-c)}, \] where $\ell_0>0$ depends on the initial datum and $c\in(1,2)$ is an explicit constant determined by the transverse tail of the first-order approximate profile. Consequently, \[ \|\nabla u(t)\|_{L^2} \sim \frac{\|\nabla Q\|_{L^2}} {\ell_0(T-t)^{1/(3-c)}}. \] After subtraction of the concentrating soliton, the radiation converges strongly in $L^p(\mathbb R^2)$ for every $2\leq p<\infty$ to a common nonzero profile $u^*$, while \[ u^*\notin H^s(\mathbb R^2) \qquad\text{for every }s\geq\frac c2. \] The stable blow-up branch is open in the relative $H^1$ topology of the localized class. Finally, every non-soliton datum in this class with non-positive energy blows up in finite time. Interval-arithmetic computer-assisted proofs certify the numerical inputs to the virial coercivity argument. They also yield a rigorous enclosure of $c$, justifying the polynomial moment of order $21$ imposed on the initial data.

Propagation of wave packets close to conical intersections

In this paper, we study the propagation of wave packets close to conical intersections with respect to a system of two Schr{ö}dinger equations presenting a codimension 2 crossing. We focus on the dynamics that occur when the wave packets pass through an area close to the crossing, and our main results provide an explicit formula for the outgoing wave packet in terms of the incoming one, with a complete description of its phase and of the classical trajectories it follows, including a drift.

A Volterra Calculus for Lie Groupoids

A pseudodifferential Volterra calculus for inverting parabolic differential equations on Lie groupoids is introduced. This enables the study of fundamental solutions of various cases of heat flows on singular manifolds with corners with non-resonant boundary indicial symbols, such as the $b$-manifolds, as well as other geometric bisection covariant heat flows. We also establish the short time asymptotic expansion for the heat kernel of a positive, elliptic differential operator on a Lie groupoid that acts on suitable Sobolev Hilbert modules and is positive definite with respect to the appropriate $L^2$ inner product.
