In this paper. we are concerned with a class of multi-dimensional balance laws with a non-local dissipative source which arise as simplified models for the hydrodynamics of radiating gases. At first we introduce the energy method in the setting of smooth perturbations and study the stability of constants states. Precisely, we use Fourier space analysis to quantify the energy dissipation rate and recover the optimal time-decay estimates for perturbed solutions via an interpolation inequality in Fourier space. As application, the developed energy method is used to prove stability of smooth planar waves in all dimensions n >= 2, and also to show existence and stability of time-periodic solutions in the presence of the time-periodic source. Optimal rates of convergence of solutions towards the planar waves or time-periodic states are also shown provided initially L-1-perturbations. (C) 2009 Elsevier Masson SAS. All rights reserved.

Global Mild Solutions of the Landau andNon-CutoffBoltzmann Equations

Renjun Duan, Shuangqian Liu, Shota Sakamoto, Robert M. Strain

Summary: This paper proves the existence of small-amplitude global-in-time unique mild solutions to both the Landau equation including the Coulomb potential and the Boltzmann equation without angular cutoff. It introduces a new function space with low regularity in the spatial variable to handle the problem in cases when the spatial domain is either a torus or a finite channel with boundary, considering both boundary conditions. The paper also studies the large-time behavior of solutions and further justifies the property of propagation of regularity of solutions in the spatial variables.

Global weak solutions and asymptotics of a singular PDE-ODE Chemotaxis system with discontinuous data

Hongyun Peng, Zhi-An Wang, Changjiang Zhu

Summary: This paper investigates the well-posedness and large-time behavior of a two-dimensional PDE-ODE hybrid chemotaxis system describing the initiation of tumor angiogenesis. The system is transformed into a parabolic-hyperbolic system using a Cole-Hopf type transformation, and it is shown that the solution of the transformed system converges to a constant equilibrium state as time tends to infinity. The Cole-Hopf transformation is then reversed to obtain relevant results for the pre-transformed PDE-ODE hybrid system. The use of the effective viscous flux is a key ingredient in the proof, enabling the desired energy estimates and regularity for chemotaxis systems with initial data of low regularity.

Uniform convergence to equilibrium for a family of drift-diffusion models with trap-assisted recombination and self-consistent potential

Klemens Fellner, Michael Kniely

Summary: We investigate a recombination-drift-diffusion model coupled to Poisson's equation to study the transport of charge in semiconductors. Our main result establishes an explicit functional inequality between relative entropy and entropy production, leading to exponential convergence to equilibrium. The approach is uniformly applied assuming the lifetime of electrons on the trap level is sufficiently small.

Optimal decay rates of solutions to hyperbolic conservation laws with damping

Nangao Zhang, Changjiang Zhu

Summary: In this paper, the asymptotic behavior of solutions to a system of hyperbolic conservation laws with damping is investigated. The system includes compressible Euler equations with damping, Ml-model, etc. Under certain smallness conditions on initial perturbations, it is proved that the solutions to the Cauchy problem of the system globally exist and time-asymptotically converge to the corresponding equilibrium state, with the optimal convergence rate being provided. The approach employed is the technical time-weighted energy method combined with the Green's function method.

Spectral Gap Formation to Kinetic Equations with Soft Potentials in Bounded Domain

Dingqun Deng, Renjun Duan

Summary: This paper proves that the linearized Boltzmann or Landau equation with soft potentials has a spectral gap when the space domain is bounded with an inflow boundary condition, contrary to the existing results. The author introduces a new Hilbert space with an exponential weight function, where the action of the transport operator induces an extra non-degenerate relaxation dissipation in large velocity. This compensates for the degenerate spectral gap and leads to exponential decay of solutions.

Global existence for a class of large solution to compressible Navier-Stokes equations with vacuum

Guangyi Hong, Xiaofeng Hou, Hongyun Peng, Changjiang Zhu

Summary: In this paper, the Cauchy problem of the three-dimensional isentropic compressible Navier-Stokes equations is investigated. The global existence and uniqueness of classical solutions with large initial energy and vacuum are proven, under the assumptions of nearly isothermal fluid and vacuum or near vacuum far-field density. This is the first result on the global existence of large-energy solutions with vacuum to the three-dimensional compressible Navier-Stokes equations for the cases of vacuum and nonvacuum far-field constant states, which generalizes the result by Huang, Li, and Xin (Commun Pure Appl Math 65:549-585, 2012) on classical solutions with vacuum and small energy (large oscillations).

Global bounded solutions to the Boltzmann equation for a polyatomic gas

Renjun Duan, Zongguang Li

Summary: In this paper, the Boltzmann equation with an additional internal energy variable I and a parameter d = 2 is considered to model the motion of a polyatomic gas. Using a perturbation framework, the global well-posedness for bounded mild solutions near global equilibria on torus is established. The proof relies on the L-2 to L-8 approach, where the linearized equation's decay property, the iteration technique for the linear integral operator, and the Duhamel's principle are employed to obtain the desired results.

Convergence rates to the planar stationary solution to a 2D model of the radiating gas on half space

Minyi Zhang, Changjiang Zhu

Summary: This paper investigates the asymptotic stability of a planar stationary solution to a initial-boundary value problem for a two-dimensional hyperbolic-elliptic coupled system of the radiating gas on half space. It is shown that the solution to the problem converges to the corresponding planar stationary solution as time tends to infinity under small initial perturbation. The proof is based on the standard L-2-energy method and the div-curl decomposition. Moreover, the convergence rate of the solution (u, q) to the corresponding planar stationary solution is t(-a/2-1/4) for the non-degenerate case and t(-1/4) for the degenerate case, which is proved using the time and space weighted energy method.

Huancheng Yao, Changjiang Zhu

Summary: This study examines the large-time-asymptotic behavior of a combination of a viscous contact wave and two rarefaction waves in the NavierStokes-Maxwell equations, taking into account electrodynamic effects. By analyzing the specific structure of the Maxwell equations in Lagrangian coordinates, it is proven that the composite wave pattern is time-asymptotically stable under certain conditions. This is the first result regarding the nonlinear stability of two different wave patterns in the compressible Navier-Stokes-Maxwell equations.

Rigidity of weighted Einstein smooth metric measure spaces

Miguel Brozos-Vazquez, Diego Mojon-Alvarez

Summary: We study the geometric structure of weighted Einstein smooth metric measure spaces with weighted harmonic Weyl tensor. A complete local classification is provided, showing that either the underlying manifold is Einstein, or decomposes as a warped product in a specific way. Moreover, if the manifold is complete, then it either is a weighted analogue of a space form, or it belongs to a particular family of Einstein warped products.

Control of neural transport for normalising flows

Domenec Ruiz-Balet, Enrique Zuazua

Summary: Inspired by normalising flows, we analyze the bilinear control of neural transport equations using time-dependent velocity fields constrained by a simple neural network assumption. We prove the L1 approximate controllability property, showing that any probability density can be driven arbitrarily close to any other one within any given time horizon. The control vector fields are explicitly and recursively constructed, providing quantitative estimates of their complexity and amplitude. This also leads to statistical error bounds when only random samples of the target probability density are available.
