We consider the 2D quasi-geostrophic equation with supercritical dissipation and dispersive forcing in the whole space. When the dispersive amplitude parameter is large enough, we prove the global well-posedness of strong solution to the equation with large initial data. We also show the strong convergence result as the amplitude parameter goes to $infty$. Both results rely on the Strichartz-type estimates for the corresponding linear equation.
For the generalized surface quasi-geostrophic equation $$left{ begin{aligned} & partial_t theta+ucdot abla theta=0, quad text{in } mathbb{R}^2 times (0,T), & u= abla^perp psi, quad psi = (-Delta)^{-s}theta quad text{in } mathbb{R}^2 times (0,T) , end{aligned} right. $$ $0<s<1$, we consider for $kge1$ the problem of finding a family of $k$-vortex solutions $theta_varepsilon(x,t)$ such that as $varepsilonto 0$ $$ theta_varepsilon(x,t) rightharpoonup sum_{j=1}^k m_jdelta(x-xi_j(t)) $$ for suitable trajectories for the vortices $x=xi_j(t)$. We find such solutions in the special cases of vortices travelling with constant speed along one axis or rotating with same speed around the origin. In those cases the problem is reduced to a fractional elliptic equation which is treated with singular perturbation methods. A key element in our construction is a proof of the non-degeneracy of the radial ground state for the so-called fractional plasma problem $$(-Delta)^sW = (W-1)^gamma_+, quad text{in } mathbb{R}^2, quad 1<gamma < frac{1+s}{1-s}$$ whose existence and uniqueness have recently been proven in cite{chan_uniqueness_2020}.
Consider the surface quasi-geostrophic equation with random diffusion, white in time. We show global existence and uniqueness in high probability for the associated Cauchy problem satisfying a Gevrey type bound. This article is inspired by recent work of Glatt-Holtz and Vicol.
We establish Strichartz estimates for the radial energy-critical wave equation in 5 dimensions in similarity coordinates. Using these, we prove the nonlinear asymptotic stability of the ODE blowup in the energy space.
In this paper we study some key effects of a discontinuous forcing term in a fourth order wave equation on a bounded domain, modeling the adhesion of an elastic beam with a substrate through an elastic-breakable interaction. By using a spectral decomposition method we show that the main effects induced by the nonlinearity at the transition from attached to detached states can be traced in a loss of regularity of the solution and in a migration of the total energy through the scales.
