We demonstrate that global solutions exist for any divergence-free initial condition with finite kinetic energy. Furthermore, we show that each solution converges at an exponential rate to a state that is aligned with the rotation of the sphere.

We show that the model is thermodynamically consistent, and that the critical points of the entropy functional with prescribed energy correspond exactly with the equilibria of the system. The system is investigated in the framework of quasilinear parabolic systems and shown to be locally well-posed in an $L_p$-setting. Furthermore, we prove that constant equilibria are normally stable. In particular, we show that solutions that start close to a constant equilibrium exist globally and converge exponentially fast to a (possibly different) constant equilibrium. Finally, we establish that the negative entropy serves as a strict Lyapunov functional and we then show that every solution that is eventually bounded in the topology of the natural state space exists globally and converges to the set of equilibria.

The motion on $\sM$ is modeled by the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations, and the fluid is subject to pure or partial slip boundary conditions of Navier type on $\partial\sM$. We establish existence and uniqueness of strong as well as weak (variational) solutions for initial data in critical spaces. Moreover, we show that the set of equilibria consists of Killing vector fields on $\sM$ that satisfy corresponding boundary conditions, and we prove that all equilibria are (locally) stable. In case $\sM$ is two-dimensional we show that solutions with divergence free initial condition in $L_2(\sM; T\sM)$ exist globally and converge to an equilibrium exponentially fast.

Using the theory of maximal $L_p$-regularity, we establish existence and uniqueness of local strong solutions and we show that each solution is smooth (in fact analytic) in space and time. Moreover, we give a complete characterization of the set of equilibria and show that solutions that start out close to a constant equilibrium exist globally and converge to a (possibly different) constant equilibrium. Finally, we show that every solution that is eventually bounded in the topology of the state space exists globally and converges to the set of equilibria.

Navier boundary conditions are imposed on the cavity surface. We prove the existence of weak solutions and determine the critical spaces for the governing evolution equation. Using parabolic regularization in time-weighted spaces, we establish regularity of solutions and their long-time behavior. We show that every weak solution à la Leray--Hopf to the equations of motion converges to an equilibrium at an exponential rate in the $L_q$-topology for every fluid-solid configuration. A nonlinear stability analysis shows that equilibria associated with the largest moment of inertia are asymptotically (exponentially) stable, whereas all other equilibria are normally hyperbolic and unstable in an appropriate topology.

It is shown that the resulting systems are thermodynamically consistent in the sense that the available energy is a strict Lyapunov functional. In both cases, the equilibria are identified and their thermodynamical stability is investigated by means of a variational approach. It is shown that the problems are well-posed in an $L_p$-setting and generate local semiflows in the proper state manifolds. It is further shown that a non-degenerate equilibrium is dynamically stable in the natural state manifold if and only if it is thermodynamically stable. Finally, it is shown that a solution which does not develop singularities exists globally and converges to an equilibrium in the state manifold.

Reformulating the problem as a semilinear evolution equation on the interface, local well-posedness is proved in strong as well as in weak settings. We obtain solvability for initial data in the critical spaces of the problem. For dimension $d\leq 3$, by means of energy estimates and a recent result of Serrin type, global existence is shown. Finally, stability of spatially constant equilibria is investigated, to the result that the stability properties of such equilibria parallel those of the classical FitzHugh-Nagumo system in ODE's. These properties of the bidomain equations are obtained combining recent results on Dirichlet-to-Neumann operators, on critical spaces for parabolic evolution equations, and qualitative theory of evolution equations.

We apply the concept of maximal regularity of type $L_p$ to prove global well-posedness for small initial data. Moreover, we show that the solutions regularize instantaneously which means that they are $C^\infty$ with respect to time $t$ as soon as $t>0$. Finally, we show that each equilibrium is stable and each solution which starts sufficiently close to an equilibrium converges at an exponential rate to a possibly different equilibrium.

We prove well-posedness in an L p -setting, study the stability of the equilibria of the problem, and show that a solution which does not develop singularities exists globally, and if its limit set contains a stable equilibrium it converges to this equilibrium in the natural state manifold for the problem as time goes to infinity.

Here we only consider the physically natural boundary conditions no-slip, pure slip, outflow, and free. As in Chap. 6, our approach is based on vector-valued Fourier multiplier theory, perturbation, and localization. It turns out that due to the divergence condition (and the pressure), the analysis for the half-space as well as the localization procedure are much more involved than in the previous chapter. Nevertheless, besides some extra compatibility condition which comes from the divergence condition, the main results will parallel those in Chap. 6.

Here we employ without further comments the notations introduced in Chapters 1 and 2, in particular those in connection with Conditions (H1)~(H6) from Chapter 1, the Hanzawa transform, and the transformed problems on the fixed domain Ω\Σ in Section 1.3. In the first section of this chapter we reformulate Problems (P1)~(P6) in a way which is amenable to a joint analysis, which will be based on maximal Lp-regularity as well as on the contraction mapping principle in Section 9.2, and on the implicit function theorem for dependence on the data in Section 9.3. For regularity we employ in Section 9.4 the so-called parameter trick, which is also based on maximal Lp-regularity and the implicit function theorem. This way we can show that the solutions obtained in Section 9.2 are in fact classical solutions. The proofs for the technical results on the nonlinearities are postponed to the last section of this chapter.

Of crucial importance for the analysis is the property of maximal Lpregularity for the linearized problem, which is fully developed in this paper as well.

If the initial surface is embedded and close to a sphere, we prove that the solution exists globally and converges exponentially fast to a sphere. Furthermore, we provide numerical simulations showing the creation of singularities for immersed curves.

For illustration we use the relatively simple set-up of reaction-diffusion systems which are — on the one h and — typical for the whole class of systems to which the general theory applies and — on the other h and — still simple enough to be easily described without too many technicalities. In addition, quasilinear reaction-diffusion equations are of great importance in applications and of actual mathematical and physical interest, as is witnessed by the examples we include.

This implies, in particular, existence and uniqueness of classical solutions for a large class of initial data. As a consequence, we give a rigorous proof of the fact that homogeneous Hele-Shaw flows with positive surface tension are volume preserving and area shrinking.

We introduce a class of equations for which the initial value problem is solvable for initial data with p-integrable curvature, and we also give estimates for the rate at which the p-norms of the curvature must blow up, if the curve becomes singular in finite time. A detailed discussion of the way in which solutions can become singular and a method for continuing the solution through a singularity will be the subject of the second part.

By means of Lp -maximal regularity of … The two-phase free boundary problem for the Navier–Stokes system is considered in a situation where the initial interface is close to a halfplane. By means of Lp -maximal regularity of the underlying linear problem we show local well-posedness of the problem, and prove that the solution, in particular the interface, becomes instantaneously real analytic.

These results are of importance for the study of partial differential equations on piece‐wise smooth domains.

Allowing … We consider the motion of two superposed immiscible, viscous, incompressible, capillary fluids that are separated by a sharp interface which needs to be determined as part of the problem. Allowing for gravity to act on the fluids, we prove local well-posedness of the problem. In particular, we obtain well-posedness for the case where the heavy fluid lies on top of the light one, that is, for the case where the Rayleigh-Taylor instability is present. Additionally we show that solutions become real analytic instantaneously.
We consider instationary creeping flow of a viscous liquid drop with free boundary driven by surface tension. This yields a nonlocal surface motion law involving the solution of the Stokes … We consider instationary creeping flow of a viscous liquid drop with free boundary driven by surface tension. This yields a nonlocal surface motion law involving the solution of the Stokes equations with Neumann boundary conditions given by the curvature of the boundary. The surface motion law is locally reformulated as a fully nonlinear parabolic (pseudodifferential) equation on a smooth manifold. Using analytic expansions, invariance properties, and a priori estimates we give, under suitable presumptions, a short-time existence and uniqueness proof for the solution of this equation in Sobolev spaces of sufficiently high order. Moreover, it is shown that if the initial shape of the drop is near the ball, then the evolution problem has a solution for all positive times which exponentially decays to the ball.
The basic model for incompressible two-phase flows with phase transitions is derived from basic principles and shown to be thermodynamically consistent in the sense that the total energy is conserved … The basic model for incompressible two-phase flows with phase transitions is derived from basic principles and shown to be thermodynamically consistent in the sense that the total energy is conserved and the total entropy is nondecreasing. The local well-posedness of such problems is proved by means of the technique ofmaximal $L_p$-regularity in the case of equal densities. This way we obtain a local semiflow on a well-defined nonlinear state manifold. The equilibria of the system in absence of external forces are identified and it is shown that the negative total entropy is a strict Ljapunov functional for the system. If a solution does not develop singularities, it is proved that it exists globally in time, its orbit is relatively compact, and its limit set is nonempty and contained in the set of equilibria.
Let $-A$ be the generator of a bounded $C_0$-group or of a positive contraction semigroup, respectively, on $L^p(\Omega,\mu,Y)$, where $(\Omega,\mu)$ is measure space, $Y$ is a Banach space of class … Let $-A$ be the generator of a bounded $C_0$-group or of a positive contraction semigroup, respectively, on $L^p(\Omega,\mu,Y)$, where $(\Omega,\mu)$ is measure space, $Y$ is a Banach space of class $\cal H \cal T$ and $1<p<\infty$. If $Y=\mathbb{C}$, it is shown by means of the transference principle due to Coifman and Weiss that $A$ admits an $H^\infty$-calculus on each double cone $C_\theta=\{\lambda\in\mathbb{C}\backslash\{0\}:|\arg\lambda\pm\pi/2|<\theta\}$, where $\theta>0$ and on each sector $\Sigma_\theta=\{\lambda\in\mathbb{C}\backslash\{0\}:|\arg\lambda|<\theta\}$ with $\theta<\pi/2$, respectively. Several extensions of these results to the vector-valued case $L^p(\Omega,\mu,Y)$ are presented. In particular, let $-A$ be the generator of a bounded group on a Banach spaces of class $\cal H\cal T$. Then it is shown that $A$ admits an $H^\infty$-calculus on each double cone $C_\theta$, $\theta > 0$, and that $-A^2$ admits an $H^\infty$-calculus on each sector $\Sigma_\theta$, where $\theta > 0$. Applications of these results deal with elliptic boundary value problems on cylindrical domains and on domains with non smooth boundary.

Other authors investigated the corresponding nonparametric problem [2], [5], [9]. A reason for this interest is that evolutionary surfaces of prescribed mean curvature model the behavior of grain boundaries in annealing pure metal. In this paper we take a more classical point of view: Consider a compact, uniformly convex w-dimensional surface M = Mo without boundary, which is smoothly imbedded in R. Let Mo be represented locally by a diffeomorphism
