Homogenization of Nonlocal Navier--Stokes--Korteweg Equations for Compressible Liquid-Vapor Flow in Porous Media SIAM J. Math. Anal. (IF 1.392) Pub Date : 2020-12-03 Christian Rohde; Lars von Wolff
SIAM Journal on Mathematical Analysis, Volume 52, Issue 6, Page 6155-6179, January 2020. We consider a nonlocal version of the quasi-static Navier--Stokes--Korteweg equations with a nonmonotone pressure law. This system governs the low-Reynolds number dynamics of a compressible viscous fluid that may take either a liquid or a vapor state. For a porous domain that is perforated by cavities with diameter

On $L^r$ Estimates for Maxwell's Equations with Complex Coefficients in Lipschitz Domains SIAM J. Math. Anal. (IF 1.392) Pub Date : 2020-12-03 Xingfei Xiang
SIAM Journal on Mathematical Analysis, Volume 52, Issue 6, Page 6140-6154, January 2020. This paper considers the time-harmonic Maxwell's equations with anisotropic complex coefficients in a bounded Lipschitz domain. We first establish the $W^{1,r}$ estimates for divergence form equations with the coefficients being the small complex perturbations of real symmetric matrices in Lipschitz domains. As

On the Low Mach Number Limit for Quantum Navier--Stokes Equations SIAM J. Math. Anal. (IF 1.392) Pub Date : 2020-12-01 Paolo Antonelli; Lars Eric Hientzsch; Pierangelo Marcati
SIAM Journal on Mathematical Analysis, Volume 52, Issue 6, Page 6105-6139, January 2020. We investigate the low Mach number limit for the three-dimensional quantum Navier--Stokes system. For general ill-prepared initial data, we prove strong convergence of finite energy weak solutions to weak solutions of the incompressible Navier--Stokes equations. Our approach relies on a quite accurate dispersive

Persistence of the Steady Normal Shock Structure for the Unsteady Potential Flow SIAM J. Math. Anal. (IF 1.392) Pub Date : 2020-12-01 Beixiang Fang; Wei Xiang; Feng Xiao
SIAM Journal on Mathematical Analysis, Volume 52, Issue 6, Page 6033-6104, January 2020. This paper is devoted to the study of the stability of the steady normal shock structure in potential flows under an unsteady perturbation. The dynamic stability problem is formulated as the well-posedness problem of an initial boundary value problem of a nonlinear wave equation in a cornered space domain with

Relativistic Boltzmann Equation: Large Time Behavior and Finite Speed of Propagation SIAM J. Math. Anal. (IF 1.392) Pub Date : 2020-12-01 Yu-Chu Lin; Ming-Jiea Lyu; Kung-Chien Wu
SIAM Journal on Mathematical Analysis, Volume 52, Issue 6, Page 5994-6032, January 2020. In this paper, we deal with the relativistic Boltzmann equation in the whole space ${\mathbb{R}}_{x}^{3}$ under the closed to equilibrium setting. We obtain the existence, uniqueness, and large time behavior of the solution without imposing any Sobolev regularity (both the spatial and velocity variables) on the

On the Long-Time Asymptotic Behavior of the Modified Korteweg--de Vries Equation with Step-like Initial Data SIAM J. Math. Anal. (IF 1.392) Pub Date : 2020-11-24 Tamara Grava; Alexander Minakov
SIAM Journal on Mathematical Analysis, Volume 52, Issue 6, Page 5892-5993, January 2020. We study the long-time asymptotic behavior of the solution $q(x,t) $, $x\in\mathbb{R}$, $t\in\mathbb{R}^+$, of the modified Korteweg--de Vries equation (MKdV) $q_t+6q^2q_x+q_{xxx}=0$ with step-like initial datum $\scriptsize q(x,0)\to \Big\{\begin{array}{@{}l@{}l@{}} c_-\quad& {for $x\to-\infty$},\\ c_+\quad& {for

Global Solutions near Homogeneous Steady States in a Multidimensional Population Model with Both Predator- and Prey-Taxis SIAM J. Math. Anal. (IF 1.392) Pub Date : 2020-11-19 Mario Fuest
SIAM Journal on Mathematical Analysis, Volume 52, Issue 6, Page 5865-5891, January 2020. We study the system $ (*) \Big\{\!\!\begin{array}{c} u_t = D_1 \Delta u - \chi_1 \nabla \cdot (u \nabla v) + u(\lambda_1 - \mu_1 u + a_1 v) \\ v_t = D_2 \Delta v + \chi_2 \nabla \cdot (v \nabla u) + v(\lambda_2 - \mu_2 v - a_2 u) \end{array} $ (inter alia) for $D_1, D_2, \chi_1, \chi_2, \lambda_1, \lambda_2, \mu_1

Criterion on Initial Energy for Finite-time Blowup in Parabolic-parabolic Keller--Segel System SIAM J. Math. Anal. (IF 1.392) Pub Date : 2020-11-19 Noriko Mizoguchi
SIAM Journal on Mathematical Analysis, Volume 52, Issue 6, Page 5840-5864, January 2020. We consider a parabolic-parabolic Keller--Segel system in a ball of $ \mathbb{R}^N $ under the Neumann boundary condition. This was introduced as a model of aggregation of bacteria. The aggregation is mathematically defined as finite-time blowup. When $ N = 2 $, an optimal criterion for finite-time blowup was obtained

Topologically Based Fractional Diffusion and Emergent Dynamics with Short-Range Interactions SIAM J. Math. Anal. (IF 1.392) Pub Date : 2020-11-19 Roman Shvydkoy; Eitan Tadmor
SIAM Journal on Mathematical Analysis, Volume 52, Issue 6, Page 5792-5839, January 2020. We introduce a new class of models for emergent dynamics. It is based on a new communication protocol which incorporates two main features: short-range kernels which restrict the communication to local metric balls, and anisotropic communication kernels, adapted to the local density in these balls, which form topological

The Sharp $L^p$ Korn Interpolation and Second Inequalities in Thin Domains SIAM J. Math. Anal. (IF 1.392) Pub Date : 2020-11-19 Davit Harutyunyan
SIAM Journal on Mathematical Analysis, Volume 52, Issue 6, Page 5775-5791, January 2020. In the present paper we extend the $L^2$ Korn interpolation and second inequalities in thin domains, proven in [D. Harutyunyan, SIAM J. Math. Anal., 50 (2018), pp. 4964--4982], to the space $L^p$ for any $1
