The 1D Cauchy problem for the Zakharov system is shown to be locally well-posed for low regularity Schrödinger data u_0 \in \hat{H^{k,p}} and wave data (n_0,n_1) \in \hat{H^{l,p}} \times \hat{H^{l-1,p}} under certain assumptions on the parameters k,l and 1<p\le 2, where \|u_0\|_{\hat{H^{k,p}}} := \| < ξ>^k \hat{u_0}\|_{L^{p'}}, generalizing the results for p=2 by Ginibre, Tsutsumi, and Velo. Especially we are able to improve the results from the scaling point of view, and also allow suitable k<0, l<-1/2, i.e. data u_0 \not\in L^2 and (n_0,n_1)\not\in H^{-1/2}\times H^{-3/2}, which was excluded in the case p=2.
We prove that the Cauchy problem for the two-dimensional Zakharov system is locally well-posed for initial data which are localized perturbations of a line solitary wave. Furthermore, for this Zakharov system, we prove weak convergence to a nonlinear Schrödinger equation.
We study the Cauchy problem for the Klein-Gordon-Zakharov system in 3D with low regularity data. We lower down the regularity to the critical value with respect to scaling up to the endpoint. The decisive bilinear estimates are proved by means of methods developed by Bejenaru-Herr for the Zakharov system and already applied by Kinoshita to the Klein-Gordon-Zakharov system in 2D.
The initial value problem for two-dimensional Zakharov-Kuznetsov equation on periodic boundary setting is shown to be locally well-posed in the cylinder for 9/10 < s < 1. We prove this theorem by using bilinear estimates thinking separetely the first variable and the second variable of space.
The initial value problem of the Zakharov system on two dimensional torus with general period is shown to be locally well-posed in the Sobolev spaces of optimal regularity, including the energy space. Proof relies on a standard iteration argument using the Bourgain norms. The same strategy is also applicable to three and higher dimensional cases.
The Zakharov system in dimension $d=2,3$ is shown to have a local unique solution for any initial values in the energy space $H^{s} \times H^{l} \times H^{l-1}$, where the range of regularity $(s, l)$ is extended, especially at $s=l-1$. The result is obtained mainly by the normal form reduction and the Strichartz estimates.
The aim of this paper is to investigate well-posedness of the Cauchy problem for the degenerate Zakharov system. Local well-posedness holds for anisotropic Sobolev data by applying $U^2, V^2$ type spaces. We give the Schrödinger initial data $H^{s_k, s'}$ and the wave data $H^{s_l, s'}$ where $s_k > (d-1)/2, s_l > (d-2)/2, s_k - s_l = 1/2$ and $s' > 1/2$.
The Zakharov system in dimension $d\leqslant 3$ is shown to be locally well-posed in Sobolev spaces $H^s \times H^l$, extending the previously known result. We construct new solution spaces by modifying the $X^{s,b}$ spaces, specifically by introducing temporal weights. We use contraction mapping principle to prove local well-posedness in the same. The result obtained is sharp up to endpoints.
We show an improved global well-posedness result for the Zakharov system in two space dimensions with minimal regularity assumptions for the data. Especially we are able to allow Schroedinger and wave data, which do not belong to H^1 and L^2, respectively, thus with infinite energy. The proof uses a refined I-method originally initiated by Colliander, Keel, Staffilani, Takaoka and Tao and bilinear estimates by Bejenaru, Herr, Holmer and Tataru. A polynomial growth bound for the solution is also given.
We study the Cauchy problem for the Schrödinger-improved Boussinesq system in a two dimensional domain. Under natural assumptions on the data without smallness, we prove the existence and uniqueness of global strong solutions. Moreover, we consider the vanishing "improvement" limit of global solutions as the coefficient of the linear term of the highest order in the equation of ion sound waves tends to zero. Under the same smallness assumption on the data as in the Zakharov case, solutions in the vanishing "improvement" limit are shown to satisfy the Zakharov system.
Ginibre-Tsutsumi-Velo (1997) proved local well-posedness for the Zakharov system for any dimension $d$, in the inhomogeneous Sobolev spaces $(u,n)\in H^k(\mathbb{R}^d)\times H^s(\mathbb{R}^d)$ for a range of exponents $k$, $s$ depending on $d$. Here we restrict to dimension $d=1$ and present a few results establishing local ill-posedness for exponent pairs $(k,s)$ outside of the well-posedness regime. The techniques employed are rooted in the work of Bourgain (1993), Birnir-Kenig-Ponce-Svanstedt-Vega (1996), and Christ-Colliander-Tao (2003) applied to the nonlinear Schroedinger equation.
We prove the local well-posedness for the two-dimensional Zakharov-Kuznetsov equation in $H^s(\mathbb{R}^2)$, for $s\in [1,2]$, on the background of an $L^\infty(\mathbb{R}^3)$-function $Ψ(t,x,y)$, with $Ψ(t,x,y)$ satisfying some natural extra conditions. This result not only gives us a framework to solve the ZK equation around a Kink, for example, but also around a periodic solution, that is, to consider localized non-periodic perturbations of periodic solutions. Additionally, we show the global well-posedness in the energy space $H^1(\mathbb{R}^2)$.
We consider here the local existence of strong solutions for the Zakharov-Kuznestov (ZK) equation posed in a limited domain (0,1)_{x}\times(-pi /2, pi /2)^d, d=1,2. We prove that in space dimensions 2 and 3, there exists a strong solution on a short time interval, whose length only depends on the given data. We use the parabolic regularization of the ZK equation to derive the global and local bounds independent of epsilon for various norms of the solution. In particular, we derive the local bound of the nonlinear term by a singular perturbation argument. Then we can pass to the limit and hence…
We consider the generalized two-dimensional Zakharov-Kuznetsov equation $u_t+\partial_x Δu+\partial_x(u^{k+1})=0$, where $k\geq3$ is an integer number. For $k\geq8$ we prove local well-posedness in the $L^2$-based Sobolev spaces $H^s(\mathbb{R}^2)$, where $s$ is greater than the critical scaling index $s_k=1-2/k$. For $k\geq 3$ we also establish a sharp criteria to obtain global $H^1(\R^2)$ solutions. A nonlinear scattering result in $H^1(\R^2)$ is also established assuming the initial data is small and belongs to a suitable Lebesgue space.
A family of dispersive equations is considered which links a higher dimensional Benjamin-Ono equation and the Zakharov-Kuznetsov equation. For these fractional Zakharov-Kuznetsov equations new well-posedness results are proved using transversality and localization of time to small frequency dependent time intervals.
We prove low-regularity global well-posedness for the 1d Zakharov system and 3d Klein-Gordon-Schrödinger system, which are systems in two variables $u:\mathbb{R}_x^d\times \mathbb{R}_t \to \mathbb{C}$ and $n:\mathbb{R}^d_x\times \mathbb{R}_t\to \mathbb{R}$. The Zakharov system is known to be locally well-posed in $(u,n)\in L^2\times H^{-1/2}$ and the Klein-Gordon-Schrödinger system is known to be locally well-posed in $(u,n)\in L^2\times L^2$. Here, we show that the Zakharov and Klein-Gordon-Schrödinger systems are globally well-posed in these spaces, respectively, by using an available conser…
In this paper we study the local and global regularity properties of the Zakharov system on the half line with rough initial data. These properties include local and global wellposedness results, local and global smoothing results and the behavior of higher order Sobolev norms of the solutions. Smoothing means that the nonlinear part of the solution on the half line is smoother than the initial data. The gain in regularity coincides with the gain that was observed for the periodic Zakharov and the Zakharov on the real line. Uniqueness is proved in the class of smooth solutions. When the bounda…
Local and global well-posedness results are established for the initial value problem associated to the 1D Zakharov-Rubenchik system. We show that our results are sharp in some situations by proving Ill-posedness results otherwise. The global results allow us to study the norm growth of solutions corresponding to the Schrodinger equation term. We use ideas recently introduced to study the classical Zakharov systems.
The Cauchy problem for the Zakharov-Kuznetsov equation is shown to be locally well-posed in H^s(R^2) for all s>1/2 by using the Fourier restriction norm method and bilinear refinements of Strichartz type inequalities.
The Cauchy problem for the 1-dimensional Zakharov system is shown to be globally well-posed for large data which not necessarily have finite energy. The proof combines the local well-posedness result of Ginibre, Tsutsumi, Velo and a general method introduced by Bourgain to prove a similar result for nonlinear Schrödinger equations.
We show the global well-posedness for the two-dimensional Zakharov-Kuznetsov equation in $H^{s}({\mathbb{R}^2})$ when $\frac{11}{13}<s<1$ via the I-method. Additionally, local well-posedness for the symmetrized ZK equation in $ B^\frac{1}{2}_{2,1}(\mathbb{R}^2)$ is established by using atomic spaces.
The Cauchy Problem for the modified Zakharov-Kuznetsov equation in three space dimensions is shown to be locally well-posed in $H^s(\R^3)$ for $s > \frac12$. Combined with the conservation of mass and energy this result implies global well-posedness for small data in $H^1(\R^3)$.
We extend the local well-posedness theory for the Cauchy problem associated to a degenerated Zakharov system. The new main ingredients are the derivation of Strichartz and maximal function norm estimates for the linear solution of a Schrodinger type equation with missing dispersion in one direction. The result here improves the one in [11].
This paper is concerned with the Cauchy problem of $2$D Klein-Gordon-Zakharov system with very low regularity initial data. We prove the bilinear estimates which are crucial to get the local in time well-posedness. The estimates are established by the Fourier restriction norm method. We utilize the bilinear Strichartz estimates and the nonlinear version of the classical Loomis-Whitney inequality which was applied to Zakharov system.
We show that the initial value problem associated to the dispersive generalized Benjamin-Ono-Zakharov-Kuznetsov equation$$ u\_t-D\_x^αu\_{x} + u\_{xyy} = uu\_x,\quad (t,x,y)\in\R^3,\quad 1\le α\le 2,$$is locally well-posed in the spaces $E^s$, $s\textgreater{}\frac 2α-\frac 34$, endowed with the norm$\|f\|\_{E^s} = \|\langle |ξ|^α+μ^2\rangle^s\hat{f}\|\_{L^2(\R^2)}.$As a consequence, we get the global well-posedness in the energy space $E^{1/2}$ as soon as $α\textgreater{}\frac 85$. The proof is based on the approach of the short time Bourgain spaces developed by Ionescu, Kenig and Tataru \cit…
In this paper, we study the Cauchy problem of the magnetic type Zakharov system which describes the pondermotive force and magnetic field generation effects resulting from the non-linear interaction between plasma-wave and particles. By using the energy method to derive a priori bounds and an approximation argument for the construction of solutions, we obtain local existence and uniqueness results for the magnetic Zakharov system in the case of $d=2,3$.
We prove the local well-posedness of the three-dimensional Zakharov-Kuznetsov equation $\partial_tu+Δ\partial_xu+ u\partial_xu=0$ in the Sobolev spaces $H^s(\R^3)$, $s>1$, as well as in the Besov space $B^{1,1}_2(\R^3)$. The proof is based on a sharp maximal function estimate in time-weighted spaces.
The Cauchy problem for a modified Zakharov system is proven to be locally well-posed for rough data in two and three space dimensions. In the three dimensional case the problem is globally well-posed for data with small energy. Under this assumption there also exists a global classical solution for sufficiently smooth data.
We consider the Zakharov-Kutznesov (ZK) equation posed in $\mathbb R^d$, with $d=2$ and $3$. Both equations are globally well-posed in $L^2(\mathbb R^d)$. In this paper, we prove local energy decay of global solutions: if $u(t)$ is a solution to ZK with data in $L^2(\mathbb R^d)$, then \[ \liminf_{t\rightarrow \infty}\int_{Ω_d(t)}u^{2}({\bf x},t)\mathrm{d}{\bf x}=0, \] for suitable regions of space $Ω_d(t)\subseteq \mathbb R^d$ around the origin, growing unbounded in time, not containing the soliton region. We also prove local decay for $H^1(\mathbb R^d)$ solutions. As a byproduct, our results…
We prove that the Cauchy problem associated to the Zakharov-Schulman system $iu_t+L_1u=uv$, $L_2v=L_3(|u|^2)$ is locally well-posed for given initial data in Sobolev spaces $H^s(R^n)$, $s\geq n/4$, for n =2,3. Here, L_j denote second order operators, with L_1 non-degenerate and L_2 elliptic.
In this note we study the generalized 2D Zakharov-Kuznetsov equations $\partial_tu+Δ\partial_xu+u^k\partial_xu=0$ for $k\ge 2$. By an iterative method we prove the local well-posedness of these equations in the Sobolev spaces $H^s(\mathbb{R}^2)$ for $s>1/4$ if $k=2$, $s>5/12$ if $k=3$ and $s>1-2/k$ if $k\ge 4$.
We prove a high-dimensional version of the Strichartz estimates for the unitary group associated to the free Zakharov--Kuznetsov equation. As a by--product, we deduce maximal estimates which allow us to prove local well-posedness for the generalized Zakharov--Kuznetsov equation in the whole subcritical case whenever $d \ge 4, k \ge 4,$ complementing the recent results of Kinoshita and Herr--Kinoshita. Finally, we use some of those maximal estimates in order to prove pointwise convergence results for the flow of the generalized Zakharov--Kuznetsov equation in any dimension, in the same spirit o…
We consider the Cauchy problem associated with the Zakharov-Kuznetsov equation, posed on $\mathbb{T}^2$. We prove the local well-posedness for given data in $H^s(\mathbb{T}^2)$ whenever $s>5/3$. More importantly, we prove that this equation is of quasi-linear type for initial data in any Sobolev space on the torus, in sharp contrast with its semi-linear character in the $\mathbb{R}^2$ and $\mathbb{R}\times \mathbb{T}$ settings.
In this paper we study the initial-value problem associated with the Benjamin-Ono-Zakharov-Kuznetsov equation. Such equation appears as a two-dimensional generalization of the Benjamin-Ono equation when transverse effects are included via weak dispersion of Zakharov-Kuznetsov type. We prove that the initial-value problem is locally well-posed in the usual $L^2(\R^2)$-based Sobolev spaces $H^{s}(\R^2)$, $s>11/8$, and in some weighted Sobolev spaces. To obtain our results, most of the arguments are accomplished taking into account the ones for the Benjamin-Ono equation.
We consider in this paper the rigorous justification of the Zakharov-Kuznetsov equation from the Euler-Poisson system for uniformly magnetized plasmas. We first provide a proof of the local well-posedness of the Cauchy problem for the aforementioned system in dimensions two and three. Then we prove that the long-wave small-amplitude limit is described by the Zakharov-Kuznetsov equation. This is done first in the case of cold plasma; we then show how to extend this result in presence of the isothermal pressure term with uniform estimates when this latter goes to zero.
This paper addresses well-posedness issues for the initial value problem (IVP) associated with the generalized Zakharov-Kuznetsov equation, namely, \{equation*} \quad \left\{\{array}{lll} {\displaystyle u_t+\partial_x Δu+u^ku_x = 0,}\qquad (x,y) \in \mathbb{R}^2, \,\,\,\, t>0, {\displaystyle u(x,y,0)=u_0(x,y)}. \{array} \right. \{equation*} For $2\leq k \leq 7$, the IVP above is shown to be locally well-posed for data in $H^s(\mathbb{R}^2)$, $s>3/4$. For $k\geq8$, local well-posedness is shown to hold for data in $H^s(\mathbb{R}^2)$, $s>s_k$, where $s_k=1-3/(2k-4)$. Furthermore, for $k\geq3$, …
This paper is concerned with the Cauchy problem of the modified Zakharov-Kuznetsov equation on $\mathbb{R}^d$. If $d=2$, we prove the sharp estimate which implies local in time well-posedness in the Sobolev space $H^s(\mathbb{R}^2)$ for $s \geq 1/4$. If $d \geq 3$, by employing $U^p$ and $V^p$ spaces, we establish the small data global well-posedness in the scaling critical Sobolev space $H^{s_c}(\mathbb{R}^d)$ where $s_c = d/2-1$.
We study decay properties for solutions to the initial value problem associated with the one-dimensional Zakharov-Rubenchik/Benney-Roskes system. We prove time-integrability in growing compact intervals of size $t^{r}$, $r<2/3$, centered on some characteristic curves coming from the underlying transport equations associated with the ZR/BR system. Additionally, we prove decay to zero of the local energy-norm in so-called far-field regions. Our results are independent of the size of the initial data and do not require any parity condition.
The Cauchy problem for the generalized Zakharov-Kuznetsov equation $$\partial_t u +\partial_xΔu=\partial_x u^{k+1}, \qquad \qquad u(0)=u_0$$ is considered in space dimensions $n=2$ and $n=3$ for integer exponents $k \ge 3$. For data $u_0 \in \dot{B}^{s_c}_{2,q}$, where $1\le q \le \infty$ and $s_c=\frac{n}{2}- \frac{2}{k}$ is the critical Sobolev regularity, it is shown, that this problem is locally well-posed and globally well-posed, if the data are sufficiently small. The proof follows ideas of Kenig, Ponce, and Vega and uses estimates for the corresponding linear equation, such as local smo…
This paper is concerned with the Cauchy problem of the $2$D Zakharov-Kuznetsov equation. We prove bilinear estimates which imply local in time well-posedness in the Sobolev space $H^s({\mathbb{R}}^2)$ for $s > -1/4$, and these are optimal up to the endpoint. We utilize the nonlinear version of the classical Loomis-Whitney inequality and develop an almost orthogonal decomposition of the set of resonant frequencies. As a corollary, we obtain global well-posedness in $L^2({\mathbb{R}}^2)$.
Local well-posedness for the two-dimensional Zakharov-Kuznetsov equation in the fully periodic case with initial data in Sobolev spaces $H^s$, $s>1$, is proved. Frequency dependent time localization is utilized to control the derivative nonlinearity. The new ingredient to improve on previous results is a nonlinear Loomis-Whitney-type inequality.
In this paper, we discuss the properties of one dimensional quantum Zakharov system which describes the nonlinear interaction between the quantum Langmuir and quantum ion-acoustic waves. The system with initial data $(E(0),n(0),\partial_t n(0))\in H^k\bigoplus H^l\bigoplus H^{l-2}$ is local well posedness in low regularity spaces. Especially, the low regularity result for $k$ satisfies $-3/4<k\leq -1/4$ is obtained by using the key observation that the convoluted phase function is convex and careful bilinear analysis. The result can not be obtained by using only Strichartz inequalities for "Sc…
In this work, we study some special properties of smoothness concerning to the initial value problem associated with the Zakharov-Kuznetsov-(ZK) equation in the $n-$ dimensional setting, $n\geq 2.$ It is known that the solutions of the ZK equation in the $2d$ and $3d$ cases verify special regularity properties. More precisely, the regularity of the initial data on a family of half-spaces propagates with infinite speed. Our objective in this work is to extend this analysis to the case in that the regularity of the initial data is measured on a fractional scale. To describe this phenomenon we pr…
The present paper is devoted to the study of the well-posedness and the lower bound of blow-up rate to the Cauchy problem of the generalized Zakharov(GZ) equations with magnetic field in R^d. The work of well-posedness of the GZ system bases on the local well-posedness theory in [9]. At first, the existence, uniqueness and continuity of solution to the GZ system with magnetic field in Rd is proved. Next, we establish the lower bound of blow-up rate of blow-up solution in sobolev spaces to the GZ system, which is almost a critical index. Finally, we obtain the long time behavior of global solut…
We consider the scalar Zakharov system in $\R^3$ for initial conditions $(ψ(0), n(0), n_t(0)) \in H^{\ell+1/2} \times H^\ell \times H^{\ell-1} $, $0\leq\ell \leq 1$. Assuming that the solution blows up in a finite time $t^* < \infty$, we establish a lower bound for the rate of blow-up of the corresponding Sobolev norms in the form $$ \|ψ(t)\|_{H^{\ell+1/2}} +\|n(t)\|_{H^{\ell}} + \|n_t(t)\|_{H^{\ell-1}} > C(t^*-t)^{-θ_\ell} $$ with $θ_\ell = \frac{1}{4}(1+ 2 \ell)^-$. The analysis is a reappraisal of the local wellposedness theory of Ginibre, Tsutsumi and Velo (1997) combined with an argument …
We prove local in time well-posedness for the Zakharov system in two space dimensions with large initial data in L^2 x H^{-1/2} x H^{-3/2}. This is the space of optimal regularity in the sense that the data-to-solution map fails to be smooth at the origin for any rougher pair of spaces in the L^2-based Sobolev scale. Moreover, it is a natural space for the Cauchy problem in view of the subsonic limit equation, namely the focusing cubic nonlinear Schroedinger equation. The existence time we obtain depends only upon the corresponding norms of the initial data - a result which is false for the cu…
