Stability for two-dimensional plane Couette flow to the incompressible Navier–Stokes equations with Navier boundary conditions Commun. Math. Sci. (IF 0.854) Pub Date : 2020-01-01 Shijin Ding, Zhilin Lin
This paper concerns with the stability of the plane Couette flow resulting from the motions of boundaries such that the top boundary $\Sigma_1$ and the bottom one $\Sigma_0$ move with constant velocities $(a,0)$ and $(b,0)$, respectively. If one imposes Dirichlet boundary condition on the top boundary and Navier boundary condition on the bottom boundary with Navier coefficient $\alpha$ , there always

Fully discrete positivity-preserving and energy-dissipating schemes for aggregation-diffusion equations with a gradient-flow structure Commun. Math. Sci. (IF 0.854) Pub Date : 2020-01-01 Rafael Bailo, José A. Carrillo, Jingwei Hu
We propose fully discrete, implicit-in-time finite-volume schemes for a general family of non-linear and non-local Fokker–Planck equations with a gradient-flow structure, usually known as aggregation-diffusion equations, in any dimension. The schemes enjoy the positivity-preservation and energy-dissipation properties, essential for their practical use. The first-order scheme verifies these properties

On the finite-size Lyapunov exponent for the Schrödinger operator with skew-shift potential Commun. Math. Sci. (IF 0.854) Pub Date : 2020-01-01 Paul M. Kielstra, Marius Lemm
It is known that a one-dimensional quantum particle is localized when subjected to an arbitrarily weak random potential. It is conjectured that localization also occurs for an arbitrarily weak potential generated from the nonlinear skew-shift dynamics: $v_n = 2 \cos ((\frac{n}{2}) \omega + ny + x)$ with $\omega$ an irrational number and $x, y \in [0, 1]$. Recently, Han, Schlag, and the second author

Blow up phenomena and global existence for the nonlocal periodic Rotation-Camassa-Holm system Commun. Math. Sci. (IF 0.854) Pub Date : 2020-01-01 Min Zhu, Ying Wang
Under consideration in the present paper is a mathematical model proposed as an equation of long-crested shallow-water waves propagating in one direction with the effect of Earth’s rotation. The system is called Rotation-Camassa-Holm system (RCH2). The local well-posedness of the periodic Cauchy problem is then established by the linear transport theory. Then, wave-breaking phenomena is investigated
