In this paper we study the singularity formation for two nonlocal 1D active scalar equations, focusing on the hyperbolic flow scenario. Those 1D equations can be regarded as simplified models of some 2D fluid equations.
We introduce a two time-scale scheme which allows to extend the method of minimizing movements to hyperbolic problems. This method is used to show the existence of weak solutions to a fluid-structure interaction problem between a nonlinear, visco-elastic, $n$-dimensional bulk solid governed by a hyperbolic evolution and an incompressible fluid governed by the ($n$-dimensional) Navier-Stokes equations for $n\geq 2$.
We consider a Navier-Stokes-Fick-Onsager-Fourier system of PDEs describing mass, energy and momentum balance in a Newtonian fluid with composite molecular structure. For the resulting parabolic-hyperbolic system, we introduce the notion of optimal regularity of mixed type, and we prove the short-time existence of strong solutions for a typical initial boundary-value-problem. By means of a partial maximum principle, we moreover show that such a solution cannot degenerate in finite time due to blow-up or vanishing of the temperature or the partial mass densities. This second result is however on…

We consider the coupling between the equations of motion of an inviscid compressible fluid in space with an objective Cattaneo-type extension for the heat flux. These equations are written in quasilinear form and we determine which of the given formulations for the heat flux allows for the hyperbolicity of the system. This feature is necessary for a physically acceptable sense of well-posedness for the Cauchy problem of such system of equations.
This note establishes properties of a model of dissipative fluid dynamics as a symmetric hyperbolic system by which Ruggeri once triggered the development of Rational Extended Thermodynamics. These properties, i.e., (1) convergence of solutions to those of the Navier-Stokes-Fourier equations and (2) nonlinear asymptotic stability of homogeneous reference solutions, also hold in the analogous situation for barotropic fluids.
We prove global existence of instantaneously complete Yamabe flows on hyperbolic space of arbitrary dimension $m\geq3$. The initial metric is assumed to be conformally hyperbolic with conformal factor and scalar curvature bounded from above. We do not require initial completeness or bounds on the Ricci curvature. If the initial data are rotationally symmetric, the solution is proven to be unique in the class of instantaneously complete, rotationally symmetric Yamabe flows.
We consider closed curves in the hyperbolic space moving by the $L^2$-gradient flow of the elastic energy and prove well-posedness and long time existence. Under the additional penalisation of the length we show subconvergence to critical points. A motivation for the study of this flow is given by the relation between elastic curves in the hyperbolic plane and Willmore surfaces of revolution.
We show the continuity of the flow map for quasilinear symmetric hyperbolic systems with general right--hand sides in different functional setting, including weighted Sobolev spaces $H_{s,δ}$. An essential tool to achieve the continuity of the flow map is a low regularity energy estimate. We then apply these results to the Euler--Poisson system which describes various systems of physical interests.
We consider smooth, double-odd solutions of the two-dimensional Euler equation in $[-1, 1)^2$ with periodic boundary conditions. It is tempting to think that the symmetry in the flow induces possible double-exponential growth in time of the vorticity gradient at the origin, in particular when conditions are such that the flow is "hyperbolic". This is because examples of solutions with $C^{1, γ}$-regularity were already constructed with exponential gradient growth by A. Zlatos. We analyze the flow in a small box around the origin in a strongly hyperbolic regime and prove that the compression of…
We examine the L^2-gradient flow of Euler's elastic energy for closed curves in hyperbolic space and prove convergence to the global minimizer for initial curves with elastic energy bounded by 16. We show the sharpness of this bound by constructing a class of curves whose lengths blow up in infinite time. The convergence results follow from a constrained sharp Reilly-type inequality.
The results of this paper are twofold: In the first part, we prove that for Schrödinger map flows from hyperbolic planes to Riemannian surfaces with non-positive sectional curvatures, the harmonic maps which are holomorphic or anti-holomorphic of arbitrary size are asymptotically stable. In the second part, we prove that for Schrödinger map flows from hyperbolic planes into Kähler manifolds, the admissible harmonic maps of small size are asymptotically stable. The asymptotic stability results stated here contain two types: one is the convergence in $L^{\infty}_x$ as the previous works, the oth…
We consider the coupling between the equations of motion of a compressible fluid in two and three space dimensions with Christov's equation for the heat flux. Christov's equation is a frame indifferent formulation of the classical model of Cattaneo that allows for the heat flux to be eliminated to obtain a single hyperbolic equation for the temperature. The obtained system is written in quasilinear form for the state variables density, velocity, temperature and heat flux. It is then shown that this system is not of hyperbolic type as consequence of the presence of the Lie-Oldroyd upper convect…
We prove global existence of instantaneously complete Yamabe flows on hyperbolic space of arbitrary dimension $m\geq3$ starting from any smooth, conformally hyperbolic initial metric. We do not require initial completeness or curvature bounds. With the same methods, we show rigidity of hyperbolic space under the Yamabe flow.
This paper studies the normalized Ricci flow from a slight perturbation of the hyperbolic metric on $\mathbb H^n$. It's proved that if the perturbation is small and decays sufficiently fast at the infinity, then the flow will converge exponentially fast to the hyperbolic metric when the dimension $n>5$.
We study inverse mean curvature flow with free boundary supported on geodesic spheres in hyperbolic space. Starting from any convex hypersurface inside a geodesic ball with a free boundary, the flow converges to a totally geodesic disk in finite time. Using the convergence result, we show a Willmore type inequality.
We consider curvature flows in hyperbolic space with a monotone, symmetric, homogeneous of degree 1 curvature function F. Furthermore we assume F to be either concave and inverse concave or convex. For compact initial hypersurfaces, which are strictly convex by horospheres, we show the long time existence of mixed volume preserving curvature flows. Furthermore we show that these flows converge exponentially in the C-infinity topology to a geodesic sphere.
We consider the dynamic property of the volume preserving mean curvature flow. This flow was introduced by Huisken who also proved it converges to a round sphere of the same enclosed volume if the initial hypersurface is strictly convex in Euclidean space. We study the stability of this flow in hyperbolic space. In particular, we prove that if the initial hypersurface is hyperbolically mean convex and close to an umbilical sphere in the $L^2$-sense, then the flow exists for all time and converges exponentially to an umbilical sphere.
In this paper we investigate the life-span of classical solutions to the hyperbolic geometric flow in two space variables with slow decay initial data. By establishing some new estimates on the solutions of linear wave equations in two space variables, we give a lower bound of the life-span of classical solutions to the hyperbolic geometric flow with asymptotic flat initial Riemann surfaces.
We study the Ricci flow of initial metrics which are C^0-perturbations of the hyperbolic metric on H^n. If the perturbation is bounded in the L^2-sense, and small enough in the C^0-sense, then we show the following: In dimensions four and higher, the scaled Ricci harmonic map heat flow of such a metric converges smoothly, uniformly and exponentially fast in all C^k-norms and in the L^2-norm to the hyperbolic metric as time approaches infinity. We also prove a related result for the Ricci flow and for the two-dimensional conformal Ricci flow.
We show that every finite volume hyperbolic manifold of dimension greater or equal to 3 is stable under rescaled Ricci flow, i.e. that every small perturbation of the hyperbolic metric flows back to the hyperbolic metric again. Note that we do not need to make any decay assumptions on this perturbation. It will turn out that the main difficulty in the proof comes from a weak stability of the cusps which has to do with infinitesimal cusp deformations. We will overcome this weak stability by using a new analytical method developed by Koch and Lamm.
In this paper, we show the existence of real-analytic stationary Navier-Stokes flows with isotropic streamlines in all latitudes in some simply-connected flow region on a rotating round sphere. We also exclude the possibility of having a Poiseuille's flow profile to be one of these stationary Navier-Stokes flows with isotropic streamlines. When the sphere is replaced by a 2-dimensional hyperbolic space, we also give the analog existence result for stationary parallel laminar Navier-Stokes flows along a circular-arc boundary portion of some compact obstacle in the 2-D hyperbolic space. The exis…
We introduce the shifted inverse curvature flow in hyperbolic space. This is a family of hypersurfaces in hyperbolic space expanding by $F^{-p}$ with positive power $p$ for a smooth, symmetric, strictly increasing and $1$-homogeneous curvature function $f$ of the shifted principal curvatures with some concavity properties. We study the maximal existence and asymptotical behavior of the flow for horo-convex hypersurfaces. In particular, for $0<p\leq 1$ we show that the limiting shape of the solution is always round as the maximal existence time is approached. This is in contrast to the asymptot…
In this paper we introduce a new geometric flow --- the hyperbolic gradient flow for graphs in the $(n+1)$-dimensional Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$. This kind of flow is new and very natural to understand the geometry of manifolds. We particularly investigate the global existence of the evolution of convex hypersurfaces in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ and the evolution of plane curves, and prove that, under the hyperbolic gradient flow, they converge to the hyperplane and the straight line, respectively, when $t$ goes to the infinity. Our results show that the theory of shock waves of hyperbolic c…
Using the maximal regularity theory for quasilinear parabolic systems, we prove two stability results of complex hyperbolic space under the curvature-normalized Ricci flow in complex dimensions two and higher. The first result is on a closed manifold. The second result is on a complete noncompact manifold. To prove both results, we fully analyze the structure of the Lichnerowicz Laplacian on complex hyperbolic space. To prove the second result, we also define suitably weighted little Hölder spaces on a complete noncompact manifold and establish their interpolation properties.
We consider inverse curvature flows in hyperbolic space with starshaped initial hypersurface, driven by positive powers of a homogeneous curvature function. The solutions exist for all time and, after rescaling, converge to a sphere.
We describe the complex poles of the power spectrum of correlations for the geodesic flow on compact hyperbolic manifolds in terms of eigenvalues of the Laplacian acting on certain natural tensor bundles. These poles are a special case of Pollicott-Ruelle resonances, which can be defined for general Anosov flows. In our case, resonances are stratified into bands by decay rates. The proof also gives an explicit relation between resonant states and eigenstates of the Laplacian.
We define a new version of modified mean curvature flow (MMCF) in hyperbolic space $\mathbb{H}^{n+1}$, which interestingly turns out to be the natural negative $L^2$-gradient flow of the energy functional defined by De Silva and Spruck in \cite{DS09}. We show the existence, uniqueness and convergence of the MMCF of complete embedded star-shaped hypersurfaces with fixed prescribed asymptotic boundary at infinity. As an application, we recover the existence and uniqueness of smooth complete hypersurfaces of constant mean curvature in hyperbolic space with prescribed asymptotic boundary at infini…
We consider contracting flows in $(n+1)$-dimensional hyperbolic space and expanding flows in $(n+1)$-dimensional de Sitter space. When the flow hypersurfaces are strictly convex we relate the contracting hypersurfaces and the expanding hypersurfaces by the Gauss map. The contracting hypersurfaces shrink to a point $x_0$ in finite time while the expanding hypersurfaces converge to the maximal slice $\{ τ=0\}$. After rescaling, by the same scale factor, the resclaed contracting hypersurfaces converge to a unit geodesic sphere, while the rescaled expanding hypersufaces converge to slice $\{ τ= -1…
We prove gradient estimates for hypersurfaces in the hyperbolic space $\mathbb{H}^{n+1},$ expanding by negative powers of a certain class of homogeneous curvature functions. We obtain optimal gradient estimates for hypersurfaces evolving by certain powers $p>1$ of $F^{-1}$ and smooth convergence of the properly rescaled hypersurfaces. In particular, the full convergence result holds for the inverse Gauss curvature flow of surfaces without any further pinching condition besides convexity of the initial hypersurface.
In this work, by considering an isentropic fluid-fluid interaction model with a large symmetric drag force, a commonly used simplified two-fluids flow model is justified as the asymptotic limit. Equations for each fluid component with an interaction term are identified in addition to the simplified two-fluids flow model, which can be used to resolve the density of one fluid specie based on information on density and the velocity of the other fluid specie, i.e., the testing flow.
We prove that for evolution problems with normally hyperbolic trapping in phase space, correlations decay exponentially in time. Normal hyperbolic trapping means that the trapped set is smooth and symplectic and that the flow is hyperbolic in directions transversal to it. Flows with this structure include contact Anosov flows, classical flows in molecular dynamics, and null geodesic flows for black holes metrics. The decay of correlations is a consequence of the existence of resonance free strips for Green's functions (cut-off resolvents) and polynomial bounds on the growth sof those functions…
We consider the normalized Ricci flow evolving from an initial metric which is conformally compactifiable and asymptotically hyperbolic. We show that there is a unique evolving metric which remains in this class, and that the flow exists up to the time where the norm of the Riemann tensor diverges. Restricting to initial metrics which belong to this class and are rotationally symmetric, we prove that if the sectional curvature in planes tangent to the orbits of symmetry is initially nonpositive, the flow starting from such an initial metric exists for all time. Moreover, if the sectional curva…
