Global well-posedness and inviscid limit of the compressible Navier-Stokes-Vlasov-Fokker-Planck system with density-dependent friction force

Abstract

This paper investigates the global dynamics of a three-dimensional fluid-particle interaction system that couples the compressible barotropic Navier-Stokes equations with the Vlasov-Fokker-Planck equation through a density-dependent friction force. The study establishes the global well-posedness, uniform-in-viscosity estimates, the global inviscid limit, and optimal large-time decay rates for classical solutions near equilibrium. First, for initial perturbations in $H^3$ sufficiently close to equilibrium, regularity estimates that are uniform in the viscosity coefficient are derived, and the existence of global classical solutions to the Cauchy problem is obtained. These uniform bounds enable us to rigorously justify the global-in-time inviscid limit as viscosity vanishes, with an explicit convergence rate proportional to the viscosity coefficient. This behavior differs significantly from that of the pure compressible Navier-Stokes system in the absence of particle interactions, emphasizing the stabilizing influence of kinetic coupling. Consequently, we establish for the first time the global existence of classical solutions to the compressible Euler-Vlasov-Fokker-Planck system. Moreover, under an additional mild assumption on the initial data, optimal time decay rates for both the solution and its spatial derivatives are obtained. Notably, the dissipative and microscopic components decay at a rate half an order faster than the macroscopic solution itself, indicating a novel relaxation mechanism induced by fluid-particle interactions. The analysis introduces new energy and dissipation structures for the coupled system, overcoming substantial difficulties arising from fluid-particle interactions.

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.
