Under fairly general assumptions, we prove that every compact invariant set $\mathcal I$ of the semiflow generated by the semilinear reaction diffusion equation u_t+β(x)u-Δu&=f(x,u),&&(t,x)\in[0,+\infty[\timesΩ, u&=0,&&(t,x)\in[0,+\infty[\times\partialΩ} {equation*} in $H^1_0(Ω)$ has finite Hausdorff dimension. Here $Ω$ is an arbitrary, possibly unbounded, domain in $\R^3$ and $f(x,u)$ is a nonlinearity of subcritical growth. The nonlinearity $f(x,u)$ needs not to satisfy any dissipativeness assumption and the invariant subset $\mathcal I$ needs not to be an an attractor. If $Ω$ is regular, $f(x,u)$ is dissipative and $\mathcal I$ is the global attractor, we give an explicit bound on the Hausdorff dimension of $\mathcal I$ in terms of the structure parameter of the equation.

In this paper we study the structure of the global attractor for a reaction- di§usion equation in which uniqueness of the Cauchy problem is not guarantied. We prove that the global attractor can be characterized using either the unstable manifold of the set of stationary points or the stable one but considering in this last case only solutions in the set of bounded complete trajectories.
We prove existence of global attractors for parabolic equations of the form $$u_t+β(x)u-\sum_{ij}\partial_i(a_{ij}(x)\partial_j u)=f(x,u)$$ with Dirichlet boundary condition on an arbitrary unbounded domain $Ω$ in $\R^3$, without smoothness assumptions on $a_{ij}(\cdot)$ and $\partialΩ$.
We study the long time behavior of solutions of the non-autonomous Reaction-Diffusion equation defined on the entire space R^n when external terms are unbounded in a phase space. The existence of a pullback global attractor for the equation is established in L^2(R^n) and H^1(R^n), respectively. The pullback asymptotic compactness of solutions is proved by using uniform a priori estimates on the tails of solutions outside bounded domains.
We consider a family of non-autonomous reaction-diffusion equations with almost periodic, rapidly oscillating principal part and nonlinear interactions. As the frequency of the oscillations tends to infinity, we prove that the solutions of the non-autonomous equations converge to the solutions of the autonomous averaged equation. If the nonlinearity is dissipative, we prove existence of compact attractors and their upper-semicontinuity at infinity.
We consider a nonlinear reaction-diffusion equation settled on the whole euclidean space. We prove the well-posedness of the corresponding Cauchy problem in a general functional setting, namely, when the initial datum is uniformly locally bounded in L^2. Then we adapt the short trajectory method to establish the existence of the global attractor and, if the space dimension is at most 3, we also find an upper bound of its Kolmogorov's entropy.
In [Adv. Math., 267(2014), 277-306], Cheskidov and Lu develop a new framework of the evolutionary system that deals directly with the notion of a uniform global attractor due to Haraux, and by which a trajectory attractor is able to be defined for the original system under consideration. The notion of a trajectory attractor was previously established for a system without uniqueness by considering a family of auxiliary systems including the original one. In this paper, we further prove the existence of a notion of a strongly compact strong trajectory attractor if the system is asymptotically co…
We establish the local input-to-state stability of a large class of disturbed nonlinear reaction-diffusion equations w.r.t. the global attractor of the respective undisturbed system.
A reaction-diffusion problem with an obstacle potential is considered in a bounded domain of $\R^N$. Under the assumption that the obstacle $\K$ is a closed convex and bounded subset of $\mathbb{R}^n$ with smooth boundary or it is a closed $n$-dimensional simplex, we prove that the long-time behavior of the solution semigroup associated with this problem can be described in terms of an exponential attractor. In particular, the latter means that the fractal dimension of the associated global attractor is also finite.

Under consideration is the hyperbolic relaxation of a semilinear reaction-diffusion equation on a bounded domain, subject to a dynamic boundary condition. We also consider the limit parabolic problem with the same dynamic boundary condition. Each problem is well-posed in a suitable phase space where the global weak solutions generate a Lipschitz continuous semiflow which admits a bounded absorbing set. We prove the existence of a family of global attractors of optimal regularity. After fitting both problems into a common framework, a proof of the upper-semicontinuity of the family of global at…
In this paper, a standard about the existence and upper semi-continuity of pullback attractors in the non-initial space is established for some classes of non-autonomous SPDE. This pullback attractor, which is the omega-limit set of the absorbing set constructed in the initial space, is completely determined by the asymptotic compactness of solutions in both the initial and non-initial spaces. As applications, the existences and upper semi-continuity of pullback attractors in $H^1(\mathbb{R}^N)$ are proved for stochastic non-autonomous reaction-diffusion equation driven by a multiplicative noi…
In this paper, we derive optimal upper and lower bounds on the dimension of the attractor AW for scalar reaction-diffusion equations with a Wentzell (dynamic) boundary condition. We are also interested in obtaining explicit bounds about the constants involved in our asymptotic estimates, and to compare these bounds to previously known estimates for the dimension of the global attractor AK; K \in {D;N; P}, of reactiondiffusion equations subject to Dirichlet, Neumann and periodic boundary conditions. The explicit estimates we obtain show that the dimension of the global attractor AW is of differ…
This work is devoted to the study of the asymptotic behavior of nonautonomous reaction-diffusion equations in Dumbbell domains $Ω_{\varepsilon} \subset \mathbb{R}^{N}$. Each $Ω_{\varepsilon}$ is the union of a fixed open set $Ω$ and a channel $R_{\varepsilon}$ that collapses to a line segment $R_0$ as $\varepsilon \rightarrow 0^{+}$. We first establish the global existence of solution for each problem by using two properties of the parabolic equation considered, which are the positivity of the solutions and comparison results for them. We prove the existence of pullback and uniform attractors …
We prove the existence and uniqueness of tempered random attractors for stochastic Reaction-Diffusion equations on unbounded domains with multiplicative noise and deterministic non-autonomous forcing. We establish the periodicity of the tempered attractors when the stochastic equations are forced by periodic functions. We further prove the upper semicontinuity of these attractors when the intensity of stochastic perturbations approaches zero.
Under fairly general assumptions, we prove that every compact invariant set $\mathcal I$ of the semiflow generated by the semilinear damped wave equation u_{tt}+αu_t+β(x)u-\Deltau = f(x,u), (t,x)\in[0,+\infty[\timesΩ, u = 0, (t,x)\in[0,+\infty[\times\partialΩin $H^1_0(Ω)\times L^2(Ω) has finite Hausdorff and fractal dimension. Here $Ω$ is a regular, possibly unbounded, domain in $\R^3$ and $f(x,u)$ is a nonlinearity of critical growth. The nonlinearity $f(x,u)$ needs not to satisfy any dissipativeness assumption and the invariant subset $\mathcal I$ needs not to be an attractor. If $f(x,u)$ is…
In this work the existence of a global attractor for the solution semiflow of the coupled two-cell Brusselator model equations is proved. A grouping estimation method and a new decomposition approach are introduced to deal with the challenge in proving the absorbing property and the asymptotic compactness of this type of four-variable reaction-diffusion systems with cubic autocatalytic nonlinearity and with linear coupling. It is also proved that the Hausdorff dimension and the fractal dimension of the global attractor are finite.
We prove the existence of a compact L^2-H^1 attractor for a reaction-diffusion equation in R^n. This improves a previous result of B. Wang concerning the existence of a compact L^2-L^2 attractor for the same equation.

We discuss the existence of pullback attractors for multivalued dynamical systems on metric spaces. Such attractors are shown to exist without any assumptions in terms of continuity of the solution maps, based only on minimality properties with respect to the notion of pullback attraction. When invariance is required, a very weak closed graph condition on the solving operators is assumed. The presentation is complemented with examples and counterexamples to test the sharpness of the hypotheses involved, including a reaction-diffusion equation, a discontinuous ordinary differential equation and…
We study pullback attractors of non-autonomous non-compact dynamical systems generated by differential equations with non-autonomous deterministic as well as stochastic forcing terms. We first introduce the concepts of pullback attractors and asymptotic compactness for such systems. We then prove a sufficient and necessary condition for existence of pullback attractors. We also introduce the concept of complete orbits for this sort of systems and use these special solutions to characterize the structures of pullback attractors. For random systems containing periodic deterministic forcing terms…
We consider networks of reaction-diffusion systems of Hodgkin-Huxley type. We give a general mathematical framework, in which we prove existence and unicity of solutions as well as existence of invariant regions and of the attractor. Then, we illustrate some relevant numerical examples and exhibit bifurcation phenomena and propagation of bursting oscillations through one and two coupled systems.
Global existence of strong solutions and the existence of global and atrractors are established for generalized Shigesada-Kawasaki-Teramoto models on planar domains. The cross diffusion and reaction can have polynomial growth of any order.
The existence of a global attractor for wave equations in unbounded domains is a challenging problem due to the non-compactness of the Sobolev embeddings. To overcome this difficulty, some authors have worked with weighted Sobolev spaces which restrict the choice of the initial data. Using the "tail estimation method" introduced by B. Wang for reaction diffusion equations, we establish in this paper the existence of a global attractor for two wave equations in the traditional Hilbert spaces $\displaystyle H^1(Ω)\times L^2(Ω)$ where $Ω$ is an unbounded domain of $\R^N$. The first equation, with…
In this paper, we investigate the existence and uniqueness of weak pullback mean random attractors for abstract stochastic evolution equations with general diffusion terms in Bochner spaces. As applications, the existence and uniqueness of weak pullback mean random attractors for some stochastic models such as stochastic reaction-diffusion equations, the stochastic $p$-Laplace equation and stochastic porous media equations are established.
In this work we consider a dissipative reaction-diffusion equation in a $d$-dimensional thin domain shrinking to a one dimensional segment and obtain good rates for the convergence of the attractors. To accomplish this, we use estimates on the convergence of inertial manifolds as developed previously in \cite{Arrieta-Santamaria-C0} and Shadowing theory.
In this work, we study continuity and topological structural stability of attractors for nonautonomous random differential equations obtained by small bounded random perturbations of autonomous semilinear problems. First, we study existence and permanence of unstable sets of hyperbolic solutions. Then, we use this to establish lower semicontinuity of nonautonomous random attractors and to show that the gradient structure persists under nonautonomous random perturbations. Finally, we apply the abstract results in a stochastic differential equation and in a damped wave equation with a perturbati…
The existence of an exponential attractor for the diffusive Hindmarsh-Rose equations on a three-dimensional bounded domain originated in the study of neurodynamics is proved through uniform estimates together with a new theorem on the squeezing property of an abstract reaction-diffusion equation also proved in this paper. The results infer that the global attractor whose existence has been established in [23] for the Hindmarsh-Rose semiflow has a finite fractal dimension.
The existence of a global attractor for the solution semiflow of the extended Brusselator system in the $L^2$ phase space is proved, which is a cubic-autocatalytic and partially reversible reaction-diffusion system with linear coupling between two compartments. The method of grouping and re-scaling estimation is developed to deal with the challenge in proving the absorbing property and the asymptotic compactness of this typical multi-component reaction-diffusion systems. It is also proved that the global attractor is an $(H, E)$ global attractor with the $L^\infty$ regularity and that the Haus…
The existence of random attractors for a large class of stochastic partial differential equations (SPDE) driven by general additive noise is established. The main results are applied to various types of SPDE, as e.g. stochastic reaction-diffusion equations, the stochastic $p$-Laplace equation and stochastic porous media equations. Besides classical Brownian motion, we also include space-time fractional Brownian Motion and space-time Lévy noise as admissible random perturbations. Moreover, cases where the attractor consists of a single point are considered and bounds for the speed of attraction…
The asymptotic behavior of solutions of the three-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations is considered on bounded smooth domains with no-slip boundary conditions or on periodic domains. Asymptotic regularity conditions are presented to ensure that the convergence of a Leray-Hopf weak solution to its weak omega-limit set (weak in the sense of the weak topology of the space H of square-integrable divergence-free velocity fields) are achieved also in the strong topology of H. In particular, if a weak omega-limit set is bounded in the space V of velocity fields with square-integrable vorticity then t…
We investigate the long term behavior in terms of finite dimensional global and exponential attractors, as time goes to infinity, of solutions to a semilinear reaction-diffusion equation on non-smooth domains subject to nonlocal Robin boundary conditions, characterized by the presence of fractional diffusion on the boundary. Our results are of general character and apply to a large class of irregular domains, including domains whose boundary is Holder continuous and domains which have fractal-like geometry. In addition to recovering most of the existing results on existence, regularity, unique…
We establish asymptotic gain along with input-to-state practical stability results for disturbed semilinear systems w.r.t. the global attractor of the respective undisturbed system. We apply our results to a large class of nonlinear reaction-diffusion equations comprising disturbed Chaffee--Infante equations, for example.
We prove the existence of random attractors for a large class of degenerate stochastic partial differential equations (SPDE) perturbed by joint additive Wiener noise and real, linear multiplicative Brownian noise, assuming only the standard assumptions of the variational approach to SPDE with compact embeddings in the associated Gelfand triple. This allows spatially much rougher noise than in known results. The approach is based on a construction of strictly stationary solutions to related strongly monotone SPDE. Applications include stochastic generalized porous media equations, stochastic ge…
We consider a 2D system that models the nematic liquid crystal flow through the Navier--Stokes equations suitably coupled with a transport-reaction-diffusion equation for the averaged molecular orientations. This system has been proposed as a reasonable approximation of the well-known Ericksen--Leslie system. Taking advantage of previous well-posedness results and proving suitable dissipative estimates, here we show that the system endowed with periodic boundary conditions is a dissipative dynamical system with a smooth global attractor of finite fractal dimension.
We give a comprehensive study of strong uniform attractors of non-autonomous dissipative systems for the case where the external forces are not translation compact. We introduce several new classes of external forces which are not translation compact, but nevertheless allow to verify the attraction in a strong topology of the phase space and discuss in a more detailed way the class of so-called normal external forces introduced before. We also develop a unified approach to verify the asymptotic compactness for such systems based on the energy method and apply it to a number of equations of mat…
We consider the global attractor of the critical SQG semigroup $S(t)$ on the scale-invariant space $H^1(\mathbb{T}^2)$. It was shown in~\cite{CTV13} that this attractor is finite dimensional, and that it attracts uniformly bounded sets in $H^{1+δ}(\mathbb{T}^2)$ for any $δ>0$, leaving open the question of uniform attraction in $H^1(\mathbb{T}^2)$. In this paper we prove the uniform attraction in $H^1(\mathbb{T}^2)$, by combining ideas from DeGiorgi iteration and nonlinear maximum principles.
We consider the nonlinear integrodifferential Benjamin-Bona-Mahony equation $$ u_t - u_{txx} + u_x - \int_0^\infty g(s) u_{xx}(t-s) {\rm d} s + u u_x = f $$ where the dissipation is entirely contributed by the memory term. Under a suitable smallness assumption on the external force $f$, we show that the related solution semigroup possesses the global attractor in the natural weak energy space. The result is obtained by means of a nonstandard approach based on the construction of a suitable family of attractors on certain invariant sets of the phase space.
We study the global existence and uniform-in-time bounds of classical solutions in all dimensions to reaction-diffusion systems dissipating mass. By utilizing the duality method and the regularization of the heat operator, we show that if the diffusion coefficients are close to each other, or if the diffusion coefficients are large enough compared to initial data, then the local classical solution exists globally and is bounded uniformly in time. Applications of the results include the validity of the Global Attractor Conjecture for complex balanced reaction systems with large diffusion.
