Abstract

In the paper, we investigate the nonlinear thermoelasticity model in two- and three-dimensional convex and bounded domains. We propose new boundary conditions for the displacement. These conditions are not usual in thermoelasticity. Whereas, we posit the Neumann boundary condition for the temperature. We prove the existence of global, unique solutions for small initial data. The temperature positivity is also shown. Next, we investigate the long-time behavior of solutions. We show that the divergence-free part of the displacement oscillates. On the other hand, we prove that the potential part and the temperature are strongly coupled. The non-rotation part is heavily affected by heat propagation. It turns out that it tends to $0$ as $x$ approaches infinity. Additionally, the temperature converges to a constant function. Our techniques are firmly based on the functional $\F$ adopted from {\sc Bies, P. M., Cieślak, T., Fuest, M., Lankeit, J., Muha, B., and Trifunović, S.}, \emph{Existence, uniqueness, and long-time asymptotic behavior of regular solutions in multidimensional thermoelasticity}, arXiv: 2507.20794, 2025. The functional is based on the Fisher information and higher-order derivatives of the displacement. It responds well to the new boundary conditions. It allows us to close a priori estimates. We also need $L^{\infty}$-estimates for the temperature here. The Moser iterative procedure ensures it. The Helmholtz decomposition is applied to the displacement. The boundary conditions are crucial here. The boundary integrals that appear in the calculations at this point disappear thanks to these conditions. This allows us to split the problem into two separate ones. Each of them is associated with one part of the Helmholtz decomposition.

Multilayered fluid-structure interactions: existence of weak solutions for time-periodic and initial-value problems

We establish the existence of weak solutions for a class of fully coupled multilayered fluid-structure interaction systems in a three-dimensional spatial setting. The model consists of an incompressible viscous fluid interacting with a thin elastic shell, which is in turn coupled to a three-dimensional elastic solid, yielding a nonstandard $3D/2D/3D$ coupling configuration. The system is driven by time-periodic boundary forcing through Bernoulli-type pressure conditions. For sufficiently small forcing in $L^2$, we prove the existence of at least one time-periodic weak solution. A central analytical difficulty stems from the strong nonlinear coupling across interfaces of different dimensionality and the absence of classical compactness mechanisms. This challenge is overcome through a carefully designed energy framework combined with and new $L^{2}$ compactness arguments adapted to the multilayered geometry. A key structural assumption is the viscoelasticity of the three-dimensional solid, which yields additional diffusion estimates and ensures energy stability. In the purely elastic case, we establish the global-in-time existence of weak solutions to the corresponding initial-value problem, provided that no degeneration (self-contact) of the fluid domain occurs. These results extend existing theories for two-dimensional and reduced-dimensional configurations to a genuinely three-dimensional multilayered setting, providing new analytical insight into complex coupled PDE systems arising in fluid-structure interaction.

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.

Global in-time rough large data solution to complex-valued semilinear damped evolution equations

We study the semilinear Cauchy problem for complex-valued damped evolution equations \begin{align*} \partial_t^2u+(-Δ)^σu+(-Δ)^δ\partial_tu=u^p,\ \ u(0,x)=u_0(x),\ \partial_tu(0,x)=u_1(x), \end{align*} with $δ\in[0,σ]$, $σ\in\mathbb{R}_+$ and $p\in\mathbb{N}_+\backslash\{1\}$, where the initial data belong to the rough space $E^α_s$ endowed with the norm \begin{align*} \|f\|_{E^α_s}=\big\|\langleξ\rangle^s\,2^{α|ξ|}\widehat{f}(ξ)\big\|_{L^2}\ \ \mbox{with}\ \ α<0, \ s\in\mathbb{R}. \end{align*} Concerning $(u_0,u_1)\in E^α_{s+\barκ}\times E^α_s$ when $s\geqslant\frac{n}{2}-\frac{2κ+\barκ-2δ}{p-1}-\barκ$ with $κ=\min\{2δ,σ\}$ and $\barκ=\max\{2δ,σ\}$ whose Fourier transforms are supported in a suitable subset of first octant, we prove a global in-time existence result without requiring the smallness of rough initial data.
