For the cubic ab-family of equations with $a\neq0$, it is proved that there exists an initial data in the Sobolev space $H^s$, $s<3/2$, with non-unique solutions on the circle.
We show unconditional uniqueness of solutions to the Cauchy problem associated with the Benjamin-Ono equation under the periodic boundary condition with initial data given in $H^s$ for $s>1/6$. This improves the previous unconditional uniqueness result in $H^{1/2}$ by Molinet and Pilod (2012). Our proof is based on a gauge transform and integration by parts in the time variable.
The paper is concerned with the time-periodic (T-periodic) problem of the fractal Burgers equation with a T-periodic force on the real line. Based on the Galerkin approximates and Fourier series (transform) methods, we first prove the existence of T-periodic solution to a linearized version. Then, the existence and uniqueness of T-periodic solution to the nonlinear equation are established by the contraction mapping argument. Furthermore, we show that the unique T-periodic solution is asymptotically stable. This analysis, which is carried out in energy space $ H^{1}(0,T;H^{\fracα{2}}(R))\cap L…
The existence, uniqueness and stability of periodic traveling waves for the fractional Benjamin-Bona-Mahony equation is considered. In our approach, we give sufficient conditions to prove a uniqueness result for the single-lobe solution obtained by a constrained minimization problem. The spectral stability is then shown by determining that the associated linearized operator around the wave restricted to the orthogonal of the tangent space related to the momentum and mass at the periodic wave has no negative eigenvalues. We propose the Petviashvili's method to investigate the spectral stability…
This paper is devoted to the study of the existence and uniqueness of global admissible conservative weak solutions for the periodic single-cycle pulse equation. We first transform the equation into an equivalent semilinear system by introducing a new set of variables. Using the standard ordinary differential equation theory, we then obtain the global solution to the semilinear system. Next, returning to the original coordinates, we get the global admissible conservative weak solution for the periodic single-cycle pulse equation. Finally, given an admissible conservative weak solution, we find…
We show that the solution (in the sense of distribution) to the Cauchy problem with the periodic boundary condition associated with the modified Benjamin-Ono equation is unique in $L^\infty_t(H^s(\mathbb{T}))$ for $s>1/2$. The proof is based on the analysis of a normal form equation obtained by infinitely many reduction steps using integration by parts in time after a suitable gauge transform.
We study the cubic ab-family of equations, which includes both the Fokas-Olver-Rosenau-Qiao (FORQ) and the Novikov (NE) equations. For $a\neq0$, it is proved that there exist initial data in the Sobolev space $H^s$, $s<3/2$, with non-unique solutions. Multiple solutions are constructed by studying the collision of 2-peakon solutions. Furthermore, we prove the novel phenomenon that for some members of the family, collision between 2-peakons can occur even if the "faster" peakon is in front of the "slower" peakon.
This work deals with the semi linear equation $-Δu+u-u^p=0$ in $\R^N$, $2\leq p<{N+2\over N-2}$. We consider the positive solutions which are ${2π\over\ep}$-periodic in $x_1$ and decreasing to 0 in the other variables, uniformly in $x_1$. Let a periodic configuration of points be given on the $x_1$-axis, which repel each other as the period tends to infinity. If there exists a solution which has these points as peaks, we prove that the points must be asymptotically uniformly distributed on the $x_1$-axis. Then, for $\ep$ small enough, we prove the uniqueness up to a translation of the positive…
In this paper, we prove the uniform nonlinear structural stability of Poiseuille flows with arbitrarily large flux for the Navier-Stokes system in a two dimensional periodic strip when the period is not large. The key point is to establish the a priori estimate for the associated linearized problem via the careful analysis for the associated boundary layers. Furthermore, the well-posedness theory for the Navier-Stokes system is also proved even when the external force is large in $L^2$. Finally, if the vertical velocity is suitably small where the smallness is independent of the flux, then Poi…
In this paper, we prove the uniqueness and structural stability of Poiseuille flows for axisymmetric solutions of steady Navier-Stokes system supplemented with Navier boundary conditions in a periodic pipe. Moreover, the stability is uniform with respect to both the flux and the slip coefficient of Navier boundary conditions. It is also showed that the non-zero frequency part of the velocity is bounded by a power function of the flux with negative power as long as the flux is suitably large. One of the key ingredients of the analysis is to prove the uniform linear structural stability, where t…
We revisit the following nonlinear critical elliptic equation \begin{equation*} -Δu+Q(y)u=u^{\frac{N+2}{N-2}},\;\;\; u>0\;\;\;\hbox{ in } \mathbb{R}^N, \end{equation*} where $N\geq 5.$ There seems to be no results about the periodicity of bubbling solutions. Here we try to investigate some related problems. Assuming that $Q(y)$ is periodic in $y_1$ with period 1 and has a local minimum at 0 satisfying $Q(0)=0,$ we prove the existence and local uniqueness of infinitely many bubbling solutions of the problem above. This local uniqueness result implies that some bubbling solutions preserve the sy…
Using ODE-methods and trapping regions derived by Mattingly and Sinai we give a new proof of the existence and uniqueness of solutions to Navier-Stokes equations with periodic boundary conditions on the plane.
We prove the uniqueness and stability of entropy shocks to the isentropic Euler systems among all vanishing viscosity limits of solutions to associated Navier-Stokes systems. To take into account the vanishing viscosity limit, we show a contraction property for any large perturbations of viscous shocks to the Navier-Stokes system. The contraction estimate does not depend on the strength of the viscosity. This provides a good control on the inviscid limit process. We prove that, for any initial value, there exists a vanishing viscosity limit to solutions of the Navier-Stokes system. The converg…
We address two pressing questions in the theory of the Korteweg--de Vries (KdV) equation. First, we show the uniqueness of solutions to KdV that are merely bounded, without any further decay, regularity, periodicity, or almost periodicity assumptions. The second question, emphasized by Deift, regards whether almost periodic initial data leads to almost periodic solutions to KdV. Building on the new observation that this is false for the Airy equation, we construct an example of almost periodic initial data whose KdV evolution remains bounded, but fails to be almost periodic at a later time. Ou…
We study the Cauchy problem for the $1$-d periodic fractional Schrödinger equation with cubic nonlinearity. In particular we prove local well-posedness in Sobolev spaces, for solutions evolving from rough initial data. In addition we show the existence of global-in-time infinite energy solutions. Our tools include a new Strichartz estimate on the torus along with ideas that Bourgain developed in studying the periodic cubic NLS.

We study the periodic Cauchy problem for an integrable equation with cubic nonlinearities introduced by V. Novikov. Like the Camassa-Holm and Degasperis-Procesi equations, Novikov's equation has Lax pair representations and admits peakon solutions, but it has nonlinear terms that are cubic, rather than quadratic. We show the local well-posedness of the problem in Sobolev spaces and existence and uniqueness of solutions for all time using orbit invariants. Furthermore we prove a Cauchy-Kowalevski type theorem for this equation, that establishes the existence and uniqueness of real analytic solu…
We are interested in solutions of the nonlinear Klein-Gordon equation (NLKG) in $\mathbb{R}^{1+d}$, $d\ge1$, which behave as a soliton or a sum of solitons in large time. In the spirit of other articles focusing on the supercritical generalized Korteweg-de Vries equations and on the nonlinear Schr{ö}dinger equations, we obtain an $N$-parameter family of solutions of (NLKG) which converges exponentially fast to a sum of given (unstable) solitons. For $N = 1$, this family completely describes the set of solutions converging to the soliton considered; for $N\ge 2$, we prove uniqueness in a class …
Let $Ω=ω\times\mathbb R$ where $ω\subset \mathbb R^2$ be a bounded domain, and $V : Ω\to\mathbb R$ a bounded potential which is $2π$-periodic in the variable $x_{3}\in \mathbb R$. We study the inverse problem consisting in the determination of $V$, through the boundary spectral data of the operator $u\mapsto Au := -Δu + Vu$, acting on $L^2(ω\times(0,2π))$, with quasi-periodic and Dirichlet boundary conditions. More precisely we show that if for two potentials $V_{1}$ and $V_{2}$ we denote by $(λ_{1,k})_{k}$ and $(λ_{2,k})_{k}$ the eigenvalues associated to the operators $A_{1}$ and $A_{2}$ (th…
In this paper we give a necessary and suffcient conditions for the existence and uniqueness of periodic solutions of functional differential equations with n delay d dt x(t) = Ax(t) + n j=1 Bx(t -- r j) + f (t). The conditions are obtained in terms of R-boundedness of operator valued Fourier multipliers.
This work is devoted to the study of a family of almost periodic one-dimensional Schrödinger equations. We define a monodromy matrix for this family. We study the asymptotic behavior of this matrix in the adiabatic case. Therefore, w develop a complex WKB method for adiabatic perturbations of periodic Schrödinger equations. At last, the study of the monodromy matrix enables us to get some spectral results for the initial family of almost periodic equations.
In this paper we prove the existence and uniqueness of the almost periodic semi- wave (traveling wave) solutions of KPP-Fisher equations with free boundaries in spatially almost periodic media.
This paper focuses on traveling wave solutions for the so-called Rosenzweig-MacArthur model with spatial diffusion. The main results of this note are concerned with the existence and uniqueness of traveling wave solution as well as periodic wave train solution in the large wave speed asymptotic. Depending on the model parameters we more particularly study the existence and this uniqueness of a traveling wave connecting two equilibria or connecting an equilibrium point and a periodic wave train. We also discuss the existence and uniqueness of such a periodic wave train. Our analysis is based on…
In this paper, we study one-dimensional nonhomogeneous isentropic compressible Euler equations with time-periodic boundary conditions. With the aid of the energy methods, we prove the existence and uniqueness of the time-periodic supersonic solutions after some certain time.
A classical result about minimal geodesics on R^2 with Z^2 periodic metric that goes back to H.M. Morse asserts that a minimal geodesic that is asymptotic to a periodic minimal geodesic cannot intersect any periodic minimal geodesic of the same period. This paper treats a similar theorem for nonparametric minimizing hypersurfaces without selfintersections -- as were studied by J. Moser, V. Bangert, P.H. Rabinowitz, E. Stredulinsky and others.
We show existence and uniqueness of regular time-periodic solutions to the Navier-Stokes problem in the exterior of a rigid body, $\mathscr B$, that moves by arbitrary (sufficiently smooth) time-periodic translational motion of the same period, provided the size of the data is suitably restricted. Moreover, we characterize the spatial asymptotic behavior of such solutions and prove, in particular, that if $\mathscr B$ has a nonzero net motion identified by a constant velocity $\bar{\mathbfξ}$ (say), then the solution exhibit a wake-like behavior in the direction $-\bar{\mathbfξ}$ entirely anal…

Stability of the peaked periodic waves in the reduced Ostrovsky equation has remained an open problem for a long time. In order to solve this problem we obtain sharp bounds on the exponential growth of the $L^2$ norm of co-periodic perturbations to the peaked periodic wave, from which it follows that the peaked periodic wave is linearly unstable. We also prove that the peaked periodic wave with parabolic profile is the unique peaked wave in the space of periodic $L^2$ functions with zero mean and a single minimum per period.
In this paper we study time-periodic solutions to advection-diffusion equations of a scalar quantity $u$ on a periodically moving $n$-dimensional hypersurface $Γ(t) \subset \mathbb{R}^{n+1}$. We prove existence and uniqueness of solutions in suitable Hölder spaces.
We consider space-periodic evolutionary and travelling-wave solutions to the regularised long-wave equation (RLWE) with damping and forcing. We establish existence, uniqueness and smoothness of the evolutionary solutions for smooth initial conditions, and global in time spatial analyticity of such solutions for analytical initial conditions. The width of the analyticity strip decays at most polynomially. We prove existence of travelling-wave solutions and uniqueness of travelling waves of a sufficiently small norm. The importance of damping is demonstrated by showing that the problem of findin…
We show existence and uniqueness for small data of regular time-periodic solutions to the Navier-Stokes problem in the exterior of a rigid body, $\mathscr B$, that moves by time-periodic translational motion of the same period along a constant direction, $\bfe_1$, and spins with constant angular velocity $\bfomega$ parallel to $\bfe_1$. We also study the spatial asymptotic behavior of such solutions and show, in particular, that if $\mathscr B$ has a net motion characterized by a non-zero average translational velocity $\bar{\bfxi}$, then the solution exhibit a wake-like behavior in the direct…
We prove the existence and uniqueness of solutions for a family of nonlinear parabolic systems related to phase field models taking in account variations of temperature and the possibility of a general class of nonlinearities. The present results generalizes in certain aspects the already published ones in the literature.
In this paper we study the equations governing the unsteady motion of an incompressible homogeneous generalized second grade fluid subject to periodic boundary conditions. We establish the existence of global-in-time strong solutions for shear thickening flows in the two and three dimensional case. We also prove uniqueness of such solution without any smallness condition on the initial data or restriction on the material moduli.
We prove existence, uniqueness, and stability of transition fronts (generalized traveling waves) for reaction-diffusion equations in cylindrical domains with general inhomogeneous ignition reactions. We also show uniform convergence of solutions with exponentially decaying initial data to time translates of the front. In the case of stationary ergodic reactions the fronts are proved to propagate with a deterministic positive speed. Our results extend to reaction-advection-diffusion equations with periodic advection and diffusion.
We consider the KdV equation $$ \partial_t u +\partial^3_x u +u\partial_x u=0 $$ with quasi-periodic initial data whose Fourier coefficients decay exponentially and prove existence and uniqueness, in the class of functions which have an expansion with exponentially decaying Fourier coefficients, of a solution on a small interval of time, the length of which depends on the given data and the frequency vector involved. For a Diophantine frequency vector and for small quasi-periodic data (i.e., when the Fourier coefficients obey $|c(m)| \le \varepsilon \exp(-κ_0 |m|)$ with $\varepsilon > 0$ suffi…

Let $u_{g}$ the unique solution of a parabolic variational inequality of second kind, with a given $g$. Using a regularization method, we prove, for all $g_{1}$ and $g_{2}$, a monotony property between $μu_{g_{1}} + (1-μ)u_{g_{2}}$ and $u_{μg_{1} + (1-μ)g_{2}}$ for $μ\in [0, 1]$. This allowed us to prove the existence and uniqueness results to a family of optimal control problems over $g$ for each heat transfer coefficient $h>0$, associated to the Newton law, and of another optimal control problem associated to a Dirichlet boundary condition. We prove also, when $h\to +\infty$, the strong conv…
This paper is concerned with the existence, uniqueness and time-asymptotic stability of time periodic solutions to the compressible Navier-Stokes-Korteweg system effected by a time periodic external force in $\mathbb{R}^n$. Our analysis is based on a combination of the energy method and the time decay estimates of solutions to the linearized system.
In this paper we deal with the Cauchy problem for the incompressible Euler equations in the three-dimensional periodic setting. We prove non-uniqueness for an $L^2$-dense set of Hölder continuous initial data in the class of Hölder continuous admissible weak solutions for all exponents below the Onsager-critical $1/3$. This improves previous results on non-uniqueness obtained by Daneri in arXiv:1302.0988 and by Daneri and Szekelyhidi Jr. in arXiv:1603.09714 and generalizes the result obtained by Buckmaster, De Lellis, Szekelyhidi Jr. and Vicol in arXiv:1701.08678.
We construct Gaussian invariant measures for the two-dimensional Euler equation on the plane. We show the existence of solution with initial conditions in the support of the measures, namely $H^β_{loc}(\R^2)$ with $β<-1$. Uniqueness and continuity of the velocity flow are proved.
We prove that if $u_1,\,u_2$ are solutions of the Benjamin-Ono equation defined in $ (x,t)\in\R \times [0,T]$ which agree in an open set $Ω\subset \R \times [0,T]$, then $u_1\equiv u_2$. We extend this uniqueness result to a general class of equations of Benjamin-Ono type in both the initial value problem and the initial periodic boundary value problem. This class of 1-dimensional non-local models includes the intermediate long wave equation. Finally, we present a slightly stronger version of our uniqueness results for the Benjamin-Ono equation.
In this paper, we investigate the asymptotic dynamics of Fisher-KPP equations with nonlocal dispersal operator and nonlocal reaction term in time periodic and space heterogeneous media. We first show the global existence and boundedness of nonnegative solutions, and then obtain some sufficient conditions ensuring the uniform persistence. In particular, we study the existence, uniqueness and global stability of positive time periodic solutions under several different conditions.
We present in this note the existence and uniqueness results for the Stokes and Navier-Stokes equations which model the laminar flow of an incompressible fluid inside a two-dimensional channel of periodic sections. The data of the pressure loss coefficient enables us to establish a relation on the pressure and to thus formulate an equivalent problem.
In this work, we use the classical moment method to find a practical and simple criterion to determine if a family of linearized Dispersive equations on a periodic domain is exactly controllable and exponentially stabilizable with any given decay rate in $H^{s}_{p}(\mathbb{T})$ with $s\in \mathbb{R}$. We apply these results to prove that the linearized Smith equation, the linearized dispersion-generalized Benjamin-Ono equation, the linearized fourth-order Schrödinger equation, and the Higher-order Schrödinger equations are exactly controllable and exponentially stabilizable with any given deca…
We prove the existence of strong time-periodic solutions to the bidomain equations with arbitrary large forces. We construct weak time-periodic solutions by a Galerkin method combined with Brouwer's fixed point theorem and a priori estimate independent of approximation. We then show their regularity so that our solution is a strong time-periodic solution in $L^2$ spaces. Our strategy is based on the weak-strong uniqueness method.
We consider the Cauchy problem for the isentropic compressible Euler equations in a three-dimensional periodic domain under general pressure laws. For any smooth initial density away from the vacuum, we construct infinitely many entropy solutions with no presence of shock. In particular, the constructed density is smooth and the momentum is $α$-Hölder continuous for $α<1/7$. Also, we provide a continuous entropy solution satisfying the entropy inequality strictly.
We provide an asymptotic analysis of a fractional Fisher-KPP type equation in periodic non-connected 1-dimensional media with Dirichlet conditions outside the domain. After demonstrating the existence and uniqueness of a non-trivial bounded stationary state $n\_+$ , we prove that the stable state $n\_+$ invades the unstable state 0 with a speed which is exponential in time.
In this paper, we present a uniqueness result for solutions to the Gross-Pitaevskii hierarchy on the three-dimensional torus, under the assumption of an a priori spacetime bound. We show that this a priori bound is satisfied for factorized solutions to the hierarchy which come from solutions of the nonlinear Schrödinger equation. In this way, we obtain a periodic analogue of the uniqueness result on $\mathbb{R}^3$ previously proved by Klainerman and Machedon, except that, in the periodic setting, we need to assume additional regularity. In particular, we need to work in the Sobolev class $H^α$…
In this article, we study stochastic partial differential equations with two reflecting walls, driven by space-time white noise with non-constant diffusion coefficients under periodic boundary conditions. The existence and uniqueness of invariant measures is established under appropriate conditions. The strong Feller property is also obtained.
