We study the McKean-Vlasov equation [ partial_t varrho= beta^{-1} Delta varrho + kappa abla cdot (varrho abla (W star varrho)) , , ] with periodic boundary conditions on the torus. We first study the global asymptotic stability of the homogeneous steady state. We then focus our attention on the stationary system, and prove the existence of nontrivial solutions branching from the homogeneous steady state, through possibly infinitely many bifurcations, under appropriate assumptions on the interaction potential. We also provide sufficient conditions for the existence of continuous and discontinuous phase transitions. Finally, we showcase these results by applying them to several examples of interaction potentials such as the noisy Kuramoto model for synchronisation, the Keller--Segel model for bacterial chemotaxis, and the noisy Hegselmann--Krausse model for opinion dynamics.
We give a complete study of the asymptotic behavior of a simple model of alignment of unit vectors, both at the level of particles , which corresponds to a system of coupled differential equations, and at the continuum level, under the form of an aggregation equation on the sphere. We prove unconditional convergence towards an aligned asymptotic state. In the cases of the differential system and of symmetric initial data for the partial differential equation, we provide precise rates of convergence.
The Sasa-Satsuma equation with $3 times 3 $ Lax representation is one of the integrable extensions of the nonlinear Schr{o}dinger equation. In this paper, we consider the Cauchy problem of the Sasa-Satsuma equation with generic decaying initial data. Based on the Rieamnn-Hilbert problem characterization for the Cauchy problem and the $overline{partial}$-nonlinear steepest descent method, we find qualitatively different long time asymptotic forms for the Sasa-Satsuma equation in three solitonic space-time regions: (1) For the region $x<0, |x/t|=mathcal{O}(1)$, the long time asymptotic is given by $$q(x,t)=u_{sol}(x,t| sigma_{d}(mathcal{I})) + t^{-1/2} h + mathcal{O} (t^{-3/4}). $$ in which the leading term is $N(I)$ solitons, the second term the second $t^{-1/2}$ order term is soliton-radiation interactions and the third term is a residual error from a $overlinepartial$ equation. (2) For the region $ x>0, |x/t|=mathcal{O}(1)$, the long time asymptotic is given by $$ u(x,t)= u_{sol}(x,t| sigma_{d}(mathcal{I})) + mathcal{O}(t^{-1}).$$ in which the leading term is $N(I)$ solitons, the second term is a residual error from a $overlinepartial$ equation. (3) For the region $ |x/t^{1/3}|=mathcal{O}(1)$, the Painleve asymptotic is found by $$ u(x,t)= frac{1}{t^{1/3}} u_{P} left(frac{x}{t^{1/3}} right) + mathcal{O} left(t^{2/(3p)-1/2} right), qquad 4<p < infty.$$ in which the leading term is a solution to a modified Painleve $mathrm{II}$ equation, the second term is a residual error from a $overlinepartial$ equation.
We analyze the analytic Landau damping problem for the Vlasov-HMF equation, by fixing the asymptotic behavior of the solution. We use a new method for this scattering problem, closer to the one used for the Cauchy problem. In this way we are able to compare the two results, emphasizing the different influence of the plasma echoes in the two approaches. In particular, we prove a non-perturbative result for the scattering problem.
In this work, we investigate the Cauchy problem of the Wadati-Konno-Ichikawa (WKI) equation with finite density initial data. Employing the $bar{partial}$-generalization of Deift-Zhou nonlinear steepest descent method, we derive the long time asymptotic behavior of the solution $q(x,t)$ in space-time soliton region. Based on the resulting asymptotic behavior, the asymptotic approximation of the WKI equation is characterized with the soliton term confirmed by $N(I)$-soliton on discrete spectrum and the $t^{-frac{1}{2}}$ leading order term on continuous spectrum with residual error up to $O(t^{-frac{3}{4}})$. Our results also confirm the soliton resolution conjecture for the WKI equation with finite density initial data.
We investigate the long time asymptotics for the Cauchy problem of the defocusing modified Kortweg-de Vries (mKdV) equation with finite density initial data in different solitonic regions begin{align*} &q_t(x,t)-6q^2(x,t)q_{x}(x,t)+q_{xxx}(x,t)=0, quad (x,t)inmathbb{R}times mathbb{R}^{+}, &q(x,0)=q_{0}(x), quad lim_{xrightarrowpminfty}q_{0}(x)=pm 1, end{align*} where $q_0mp 1in H^{4,4}(mathbb{R})$.Based on the spectral analysis of the Lax pair, we express the solution of the mKdV equation in terms of a Riemann-Hilbert problem. In our previous article, we have obtained long time asymptotics and soliton resolutions for the mKdV equation in the solitonic region $xiin(-6,-2)$ with $xi=frac{x}{t}$.In this paper, we calculate the asymptotic expansion of the solution $q(x,t)$ for the solitonic region $xiin(-varpi,-6)cup(-2,varpi)$ with $ 6 < varpi<infty$ being an arbitrary constant.For $-varpi<xi<-6$, there exist four stationary phase points on jump contour, and the asymptotic approximations can be characterized with an $N$-soliton on discrete spectrums and a leading order term $mathcal{O}(t^{-1/2})$ on continuous spectrum up to a residual error order $mathcal{O}(t^{-3/4})$. For $-2<xi<varpi$, the leading term of asymptotic expansion is described by the soliton solution and the error order $mathcal{O}(t^{-1})$ comes from a $bar{partial}$-problem. Additionally, asymptotic stability can be obtained.
