We study the stabilities and classical solutions of Euler-Poisson equations of describing the evolution of the gaseous star in astrophysics. In fact, we extend the study the stabilities of Euler-Poisson equations with or without frictional damping term to some special dimensional spaces. Besides, by using the second inertia function in 2 dimension of Euler-Poisson equations, we prove the non-global existence of classical solutions with $2\int_Ω(ρ| u| ^{2}+2P)dx<gM^{2}-ε$, for any $γ$.
This article extends the previous paper in "M.W. Yuen, \textit{Stabilities for Euler-Poisson Equations in Some Special Dimensions}, J. Math. Anal. Appl. \textbf{344} (2008), no. 1, 145--156.", from the Euler-Poisson equations for attractive forces to the repulsive ones in $R^{N}$ $(N\geq2)$. The similar stabilities of the system are studied. Additionally, we explain that it is impossible to have the density collapsing solutions with compact support to the system with repulsive forces for $γ>1$.
In this paper, we study a linearized two-dimensional Euler equation. This equation decouples into infinitely many invariant subsystems. Each invariant subsystem is shown to be a linear Hamiltonian system of infinite dimensions. Another important invariant besides the Hamiltonian for each invariant subsystem is found, and is utilized to prove an ``unstable disk theorem'' through a simple Energy-Casimir argument. The eigenvalues of the linear Hamiltonian system are of four types: real pairs ($c,-c$), purely imaginary pairs ($id,-id$), quadruples ($\pm c\pm id$), and zero eigenvalues. The eigenva…
This paper studies the pressureless Euler-Poisson system and its fully non-linear counterpart, the Euler-Monge-Ampère system, where the fully non-linear Monge-Ampère equation substitutes for the linear Poisson equation. While the first is a model of plasma physics, the second is derived as a geometric approximation to the Euler incompressible equations. Using energy estimates, convergence of both systems to the Euler incompressible equations is proved.
We investigate rescaling transformations for the Vlasov-Poisson and Euler-Poisson systems and derive in the plasma physics case Lyapunov functionals which can be used to analyze dispersion effects. The method is also used for studying the long time behaviour of the solutions and can be applied to other models in kinetic theory (2-dimensional symmetric Vlasov-Poisson system with an external magnetic field), in fluid dynamics (Euler system for gases) and in quantum physics (Schrödinger-Poisson system, nonlinear Schrödinger equation).
The dynamics of gaseous stars can be described by the Euler-Poisson system. Inspired by Rein's stability result for $γ>{4/3}$, we prove the nonlinear instability of steady states for the adiabatic exponent $γ={6/5}$ in spherically symmetric and isentropic motion.
A fundamental two-fluid model for describing dynamics of a plasma is the Euler-Poisson system, in which compressible ion and electron fluids interact with their self-consistent electrostatic force. Global smooth electron dynamics were constructed in Guo due to dispersive effect of the electric field. In this paper, we construct global smooth irrotational solutions with small amplitude for ion dynamics in the Euler-Poisson system.
In this paper, we use integration method to show that there is no existence of global $C^{2}$ solution with compact support, to the pressureless Euler-Poisson equations with attractive forces in $R^{N}$. And the similar result can be shown, provided that the uniformly bounded functional:% \int_{Ω(t)}Kγ(γ-1)ρ^{γ-2}(\nablaρ)^{2}% dx+\int_{Ω(t)}Kγρ^{γ-1}Δρdx+ε\geq -δα(N)M, where $M$ is the mass of the solutions and $| Ω| $ is the fixed volume of $Ω(t)$. On the other hand, our differentiation method provides a simpler proof to show the blowup result in "D. H. Chae and E. Tadmor, \textit{On the Fin…
We study the asymptotic regime of strong electric fields that leads from the Vlasov-Poisson system to the Incompressible Euler equations. We also deal with the Vlasov-Poisson-Fokker-Planck system which induces dissipative effects. The originality consists in considering a situation with a finite total charge confined by a strong external field. In turn, the limiting equation is set in a bounded domain, the shape of which is determined by the external confining potential. The analysis extends to the situation where the limiting density is non-homogeneous and where the Euler equation is replaced…
This article concerns the global-in-time existence of smooth solutions with small amplitude to two space dimensional Euler-Poisson system. The main difficulty lies in the slow time decay $(1+t)^{-1}$ of the linear system. Inspired by Ozawa, Tsutaya, and Tsutsumi's work, we show that such smooth solutions exist for radially symmetric flows.
We prove that the one-dimensional Euler-Poisson system driven by the Poisson forcing together with the usual γ-law pressure, γ ≥ 1, admits global solutions for a large class of initial data. Thus, the Poisson forcing regularizes the generic finite-time breakdown in the 2x2 p-system. Global regularity is shown to depend on whether or not the initial configuration of the Riemann invariants and density crosses an intrinsic critical threshold.
In this paper, we study the blowup phenomena for the regular solutions of the isentropic relativistic Euler-Poisson equations with a vacuum state in spherical symmetry. Using a general family of testing functions, we obtain new blowup conditions for the relativistic Euler-Poisson equations. We also show that the proposed blowup conditions are valid regardless of the speed requirement, which was one of the key constraints stated in "Y. Geng, Singularity Formation for Relativistic Euler and Euler-Poisson Equations with Repulsive Force, Commun. Pure Appl. Anal., 14 (2015), 549--564.".
This paper is concerned with the 1-D compressible Euler-Poisson equations with moving physical vacuum boundary condition. It is usually used to describe the motion of a self-gravitating inviscid gaseous star. The local well-posedness of classical solutions is established in the case of the adiabatic index $1<γ<3$.
The motion of a continuum of matter subject to gravitational interaction is classically described by the Euler-Poisson system. Prescribing the density of matter at initial and final times, we are able to obtain weak solutions for this equation by minimizing the action of the Lagrangian which is a convex functional. Then we see that such minimizing solutions are consistent with smooth solutions of the Euler-Poisson system and enjoy some special regularity properties. Meanwhile some intersting links with with Hamilton-Jacobi equations are found.
We give a necessary and sufficient condition for the global existence of the classical solution to the Cauchy problem of the compressible Euler-Poisson equations with radial symmetry. We introduce a new quantity which describes the balance between the initial velocity of the flow and the strength of the force governed by Poisson equation.
We find a sharp condition on the density-dependent coefficient of damping of a one-dimensional repulsive Euler-Poisson system, which makes it possible to suppress the formation of singularities in the solution of the Cauchy problem with arbitrary smooth data. In the context of plasma physics, this means the possibility of suppressing the breakdown of arbitrary oscillations of cold plasma.
By rewriting a bipolar Euler-Poisson equations with damping into an Euler equation with damping coupled with an Euler-Poisson equation with damping, and using a new spectral analysis, we obtain the optimal decay results of the solutions in $L^2$-norm, which improve theose in \cite{Li3, Wu3}. More precisely, the velocities $u_1,u_2$ decay at the $L^2-$rate $(1+t)^{-{5}{4}}$, which is faster than the normal $L^2-$rate $(1+t)^{-{3}{4}}$ for the Heat equation and the Navier-Stokes equations. In addition, the disparity of two densities $ρ_1-ρ_2$ and the disparity of two velocities $u_1-u_2$ decay a…
The Euler-Poisson system is a fundamental two-fluid model to describe the dynamics of the plasma consisting of compressible electrons and a uniform ion background. By using the dispersive Klein-Gordon effect, Guo \cite{Guo98} first constructed a global smooth irrotational solution in the three dimensional case. It has been conjectured that same results should hold in the two-dimensional case. The main difficulty in 2D comes from the slow dispersion of the linear flow and certain nonlocal resonant obstructions in the nonlinearity. In this paper we develop a new method to overcome these difficul…
In this paper, we continue to study the blowup problem of the $N$-dimensional compressible Euler or Euler-Poisson equations with repulsive forces, in radial symmetry. In details, we extend the recent result of "M.W. Yuen, \textit{Blowup for the Euler and Euler-Poisson Equations with Repulsive Forces}, Nonlinear Analysis Series A: Theory, Methods & Applications \textbf{74} (2011), 1465--1470.". We could further apply the integration method to obtain the more general results which the non-trivial classical solutions $(ρ,V)$, with compact support in $[0,R]$, where $R>0$ is a positive constant wit…
Compressible Euler-Poisson equations are the standard self-gravitating models for stellar dynamics in classical astrophysics. In this article, we construct periodic solutions to the isothermal ($γ=1$) Euler-Poisson equations in $R^{2}$ with possible applications to the formation of plate, spiral galaxies and the evolution of gas-rich, disk-like galaxies. The results complement Yuen's solutions without rotation (M.W. Yuen, Analytical Blowup Solutions to the 2-dimensional Isothermal Euler-Poisson Equations of Gaseous Stars, J. Math. Anal. Appl. 341(2008), 445--456.). Here, the periodic rotation …
In this paper, we consider the quasi-neutral limit of a three dimensional Euler-Poisson system of compressible fluids coupled to a magnetic field. We prove that, as Debye length tends to zero, periodic initial-value problems of the model have unique smooth solutions existing in the time interval where the ideal incompressible magnetohydrodynamic equations has smooth solution. Meanwhile, it is proved that smooth solutions converge to solutions of incompressible magnetohydrodynamic equations with a sharp convergence rate in the process of quasi-neutral limit.
In this paper, we study the blowup of the $N$-dim Euler or Euler-Poisson equations with repulsive forces, in radial symmetry. We provide a novel integration method to show that the non-trivial classical solutions $(ρ,V)$, with compact support in $[0,R]$, where $R>0$ is a positive constant and in the sense which $ρ(t,r)=0$ and $V(t,r)=0$ for $r\geq R$, under the initial condition% $H_{0}=\int_{0}^{R}rV_{0}dr>0$ blow up on or before the finite time $T=R^{3}/(2H_{0})$ for pressureless fluids or $γ>1.$ The main contribution of this article provides the blowup results of the Euler $(δ=0)$ or Euler-…
This article is the continued version of the analytical blowup solutions for 2-dimensional Euler-Poisson equations in "M.W. Yuen, Analytical Blowup Solutions to the 2-dimensional Isothermal Euler-Poisson Equations of Gaseous Stars, J. Math. Anal. Appl. 341 (1)(2008), 445-456." and "M.W. Yuen, Analytical Blowup Solutions to the 2-dimensional Isothermal Euler-Poisson Equations of Gaseous Stars II. arXiv:0906.0176v1". With the extension of the blowup solutions with radial symmetry for the isothermal Euler-Poisson equations in R^2, other special blowup solutions in R^N with non-radial symmetry are…
The Euler-Poisson system is a fundamental two-fluid model to describe the dynamics of the plasma consisting of compressible electrons and a uniform ion background. In the 3D case Guo first constructed a global smooth irrotational solution by using dispersive Klein-Gordon effect. It has been conjectured that same results should hold in the two-dimensional case. In our recent work, we proved the existence of a family of smooth solutions by constructing the wave operators for the 2D system. In this work we completely settle the 2D Cauchy problem.
This article is the continued version of the analytical blowup solutions for 2-dimensional Euler-Poisson equations \cite{Y1}. With extension of the blowup solutions with radial symmetry for the isothermal Euler-Poisson equations in $R^{2}$, other special blowup solutions in $R^{2}$ with non-radial symmetry are constructed by the separation method. We notice that the results are the first evolutionary solutions with non-radial symmetry for the system. Key words: Analytical Solutions, Euler-Poisson Equations, Isothermal, Blowup, Non-radial Symmetry, Line Source or Sink
Pressureless Euler-Poisson equations with attractive forces are standard models in Newtonian cosmology. In this article, we further develop the spectral dynamics method and apply a novel spectral-dynamics-integration method to study the blowup conditions for $C^{2}$ solutions with a bounded domain, $\left\Vert X(t)\right\Vert \leq X_{0}$, where $\left\Vert\cdot\right\Vert $ denotes the volume and $X_{0}$ is a positive constant. In particular, we show that if the cosmological constant $Λ<M/X_{0}$, with the total mass $M$, then the non-trivial $C^{2}$ solutions in $R^{N}$ with the irrotational i…
Local existence and well posedness for a class of solutions for the Euler Poisson system is shown. These solutions have a density $ρ$ which either falls off at infinity or has compact support. The solutions have finite mass, finite energy functional and include the static spherical solutions for the adiabatic constant $γ=\frac{6}{5}$. The result is achieved by using weighted Sobolev spaces of fractional order and a new non linear estimate which allows to estimate the physical density by the regularised non linear matter variable. Gamblin also has studied this setting but using very different f…
Given constant data of density $ρ_0$, velocity $-u_0{\bf e}_r$, pressure $p_0$ and electric force $-E_0{\bf e}_r$ for supersonic flow at the entrance, and constant pressure $p_{\rm ex}$ for subsonic flow at the exit, we prove that Euler-Poisson system admits a unique transonic shock solution in a two dimensional convergent nozzle, provided that $u_0>0$, $E_0>0$, and that $E_0$ is sufficiently large depending on $(ρ_0, u_0, p_0)$ and the length of the nozzle.
The main purpose of this paper is to provide an effective procedure to study rigorously the relationship between unipolar and bipolar Euler-Poisson system in the perspective of mass. Based on the fact that the mass of an electron is far less than that of an ion, we amplify this property by letting $m_e/m_i\rightarrow 0$ and using two different singular limits to illustrate it, which are zero-electron mass limit and infinity-ion mass limit. We use the method of asymptotic expansion to handle the problem and find that the limiting process from bipolar to unipolar system is actually the process o…
In this paper, the finite time blow-up of smooth solutions to the Cauchy problem for full Euler-Poisson equations and isentropic Euler-Poisson equations with repulsive forces or attractive forces in high dimensions $(n\geq3)$ is proved for a large class of initial data. It is not required that the initial data has compact support or contains vacuum in any finite regions.
This paper studies the two-dimensional Euler-Poisson equations associated with either attractive or repulsive forces. We mainly study the Riccati system that governs the flow's gradient. Under a suitable condition, it is shown that the Euler-Poisson system admits global smooth solutions for a large set of initial configurations. This paper is a continuation of our former work [8].
We improve the recent result of Chae & Tadmor in [Comm. Math. Sci. 6(3) (2008) 785-789], proving a one-sided threshold condition which leads to finite-time breakdown of the Euler-Poisson equations in arbitrary dimension n.
Consider the scaling $\varepsilon^{1/2}(x-Vt)\to x,\ \varepsilon^{3/2}t\to t$ in the Euler-Poisson system for ion-acoustic waves \eqref{equ1}. We establish that as $\varepsilon\to 0$, the solutions to such Euler-Poisson system converge globally in time to the solutions of the Korteweg-de Vries equation.
We prove shock formation for 3D Euler-Poisson system for electron fluid plasma. The shock solution we construct is of large initial data, also compactly supported during the lifespan. In addition, the blowup time and location can be computed explicitly.
We prove that small smooth irrotational but charged perturbations of a constant background are global and go back to equilibrium in the 3D electron Euler-Poissson equation.
We consider the (repulsive) Euler-Poisson system for the electrons in two dimensions and prove that small smooth perturbations of a constant background exist for all time and remain smooth (never develop shocks). This extends to 2D the work of Guo.
We prove the finite time blow-up for $C^1$ solutions to the Euler-Poisson equations in $\Bbb R^n$, $n\geq 1$, with/without background density for initial data satisfying suitable conditions. We also find a sufficient condition for the initial data such that $C^3$ solution breaks down in finite time for the compressible Euler equations for polytropic gas flows.
We prove the unique existence of supersonic solutions of the Euler- Poisson system for potential flow in a three-dimensional rectangular cylinder when prescribing the velocity and the strength of electric field at the entrance. Overall, the main framework is similar to [1], but there are several technical differences to be taken care of vary carefully. And, it is our main goal to treat all the technical differences occurring when one considers a three dimensional supersonic solution of the steady Euler-Poisson system.
In this work, we study the behavior of blow-up solutions to the multidimensional restricted Euler--Poisson equations which are the localized version of the full Euler--Poisson system. We provide necessary conditions for the existence of finite-time blow-up solutions in terms of the initial data, and describe the asymptotic behavior of the solutions near blow up times. We also identify a rich set of the initial data which yields global bounded solutions.
We construct a special $C^{1,α}$ blow up solution to the three dimensional system modeling electro-hydrodynamics, which is strongly coupled with incompressible Euler equation and Nernst-Planck-Poisson equation. Our construction lies on the framework established in Elgindi [11] and relies on a special solution to variant spherical Laplacian.
We establish unique existence and stability of subsonic potential flow for steady Euler-Poisson system in a multidimensional nozzle of a finite length when prescribing the electric potential difference on non-insulated boundary from a fixed point at the exit, and prescribing the pressure at the exit of the nozzle. The Euler-Poisson system for subsonic potential flow can be reduced to a nonlinear elliptic system of second order. In this paper, we develop a technique to achieve a priori $C^{1,\alp}$ estimates of solutions to a quasi-linear second order elliptic system with mixed boundary conditi…
We derive an explicit formula for global weak solutions of the one dimensional system of pressure-less Euler-Poisson equations. Our variational formulation is an extension of the well-known formula for entropy solutions of the scalar inviscid Burgers' equation: since the characteristics of the Euler-Poisson equations are parabolas, the representation of their weak solution takes the form of a "quadratic" version of the celebrated Lax-Oleinik variational formula. Three cases are considered. (i) The variational formula recovers the "sticky particle" solution in the attractive case; (ii) It repre…
This paper proves the existence of variational rotating solutions to the compressible non-isentropic Euler-Poisson equations with prescribed total mass. This extends the result of the isentropic case [Auchmuty and Beals, Arch. Ration. Mech. Anal., 1971] to the non-isentropic case. Compared with the previous result of variational rotating solutions in non-isentropic case [Wu, Journal of Differential Equations, 2015], to keep the constraint of a prescribed finite total mass, the author establishes a new variational structure the non-isentropic Euler-Poisson equations.
