This paper analyzes inverse scattering for the one-dimensional Helmholtz equation in the case where the wave speed is piecewise constant. Scattering data recorded for an arbitrarily small interval of frequencies is shown to determine the wave speed uniquely, and a direct reconstruction algorithm is presented. The algorithm is exact provided data is recorded for a sufficiently wide range of frequencies and the jump points of the wave speed are equally spaced with respect to travel time. Numerical examples show that the algorithm works also in the general case of arbitrary wave speed (either with jumps or continuously varying etc.) giving progressively more accurate approximations as the range of recorded frequencies increases. A key underlying theoretical insight is to associate scattering data to compositions of automorphisms of the unit disk, which are in turn related to orthogonal polynomials on the unit circle. The algorithm exploits the three-term recurrence of orthogonal polynomials to reduce the required computation.

We study the hyperboloidal initial value problem for the one-dimensional wave equation perturbed by a smooth potential. We show that the evolution decomposes into a finite-dimensional spectral part and an infinite-dimensional radiation part. For the radiation part we prove a set of Strichartz estimates. As an application we study the long-time asymptotics of Yang-Mills fields on a wormhole spacetime.
We present a new method of investigating the so-called quasi-linear strongly damped wave equations $$ partial_t^2u-gammapartial_tDelta_x u-Delta_x u+f(u)= abla_xcdot phi( abla_x u)+g $$ in bounded 3D domains. This method allows us to establish the existence and uniqueness of energy solutions in the case where the growth exponent of the non-linearity $phi$ is less than 6 and $f$ may have arbitrary polynomial growth rate. Moreover, the existence of a finite-dimensional global and exponential attractors for the solution semigroup associated with that equation and their additional regularity are also established. In a particular case $phiequiv0$ which corresponds to the so-called semi-linear strongly damped wave equation, our result allows to remove the long-standing growth restriction $|f(u)|leq C(1+ |u|^5)$.
We investigate the large time behavior of compactly supported solutions for a one-dimensional thin-film equation with linear mobility in the regime of partial wetting. We show the stability of steady state solutions. The proof uses the Lagrangian coordinates. Our method is to establish and exploit differential relations between the energy and the dissipation as well as some interpolation inequalities. Our result is different from earlier results because here we consider solutions with finite mass.
We consider the quartic focusing Half Wave equation (HW) in one space dimension. We show first that that there exist traveling wave solutions with arbitrary small $H^{frac 12}(R)$ norm. This fact shows that small data scattering is not possible for (HW) equation and that below the ground state energy there are solutions whose energy travels as a localised packet and which preserve this localisation in time. This behaviour for (HW) is in sharp contrast with classical NLS in any dimension and with fractional NLS with radial data. The second result addressed is the non existence of traveling waves moving at the speed of light. The main ingredients of the proof are commutator estimates and a careful study of spatial decay of traveling waves profile using the harmonic extension to the upper half space.
In this paper, we consider the following three dimensional defocusing cubic nonlinear Schrodinger equation (NLS) with partial harmonic potential begin{equation*}tag{NLS} ipartial_t u + left(Delta_{mathbb{R}^3 }-x^2 right) u = |u|^2 u, quad u|_{t=0} = u_0. end{equation*} Our main result shows that the solution $u$ scatters for any given initial data $u_0$ with finite mass and energy. The main new ingredient in our approach is to approximate (NLS) in the large-scale case by a relevant dispersive continuous resonant (DCR) system. The proof of global well-posedness and scattering of the new (DCR) system is greatly inspired by the fundamental works of Dodson cite{D3,D1,D2} in his study of scattering for the mass-critical nonlinear Schrodinger equation. The analysis of (DCR) system allows us to utilize the additional regularity of the smooth nonlinear profile so that the celebrated concentration-compactness/rigidity argument of Kenig and Merle applies.
