چکیده
The second part of the notes are written jointly with my collaborator from University of Illinois, M. B. Erdogan. We developed the material with two goals in mind. First to prove existence and uniqueness results in the case of dispersive PDE evolving from initial data that are periodic in the space variable. Secondly we develop new tools to address the problem of wellposedness of solutions, in the case that the nonlinearity is not a polynomial and may for example contain derivatives (of order less that the order of the linear PDE). An example of such an equation is the Korteweg de Vries (KdV) equation. 1. The Korteweg de Vries equation. In this section we prove existence and uniqueness of smooth solutions for the KdV equation. We follow the proof in [6]. Consider the initial value problem: ut + uxxx + uux = 0 with initial data u(0, x) = u0(x) ∈ H(R) with s being a sufficiently large integer. In this section, we say u is a classical solution of KdV in H if u ∈ C([−δ, δ];H) ∩ C([−δ, δ];Hs−3) and if u satisfies KdV for each x and t. We start with the following energy inequality: if u is a smooth solution of KdV, then there exists T0 = T0(‖u0‖Hs) such that on [0, T0], ‖u‖Hs ≤ 2‖u0‖Hs . Indeed, ∂t‖∂ xu‖L2 = 2 ∫ ∂ xut∂ s xudx = −2 ∫ ∂ x u∂ s xudx− 2 ∫ ∂ x(uux)∂ s xudx. The first term is zero, the highest order contribution of the second term is −2 ∫ u∂ x u∂ s xudx = ∫ ux(∂ s xu) dx. Thus, we obtain for s > 3/2 ∂t‖u‖Hs . ‖ux‖L∞‖u‖Hs . ‖u‖Hs . Integrating in time implies that ‖u(T )‖Hs ≤ ‖u0‖Hs + ∫ T

متن کاملApplications of He’s Variational Principle method and the Kudryashov method to nonlinear time-fractional differential equations
In this paper, we establish exact solutions for the time-fractional Klein-Gordon equation, and the time-fractional Hirota-Satsuma coupled KdV system. The He’s semi-inverse and the Kudryashov methods are used to construct exact solutions of these equations. We apply He’s semi-inverse method to establish a variational theory for the time-fractional Klein-Gordon equation, and the time-fractiona...
متن کاملSharp Global Well - Posedness for Kdv and Modified Kdv On
The initial value problems for the Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) and modified KdV (mKdV) equations under periodic and decaying boundary conditions are considered. These initial value problems are shown to be globally well-posed in all L 2-based Sobolev spaces H s where local well-posedness is presently known, apart from the H 1 4 (R) endpoint for mKdV. The result for KdV relies on a new method for co...
متن کاملLecture notes on state estimation of nonlinear non-Gaussian stochastic systems
Preface These lecture notes are concerned with state estimation problem of linear and particularly nonlinear discrete and continuous-discrete stochastic systems. State estimation has a great variety of applications including The general solution of the state estimation problem is based on the Bayesian recursive relations and the Fokker-Planck equation which generate conditional probability dens...
متن کاملIntersection Theory , Integrable Hierarchies and Topological Field Theory ∗
In these lecture notes we review the various relations between intersection theory on the moduli space of Riemann surfaces, integrable hierarchies of KdV type, matrix models, and topological field theory. We focus in particular on the question why matrix integrals of the type considered by Kontsevich naturally appear as τ -functions of integrable hierarchies related to topological minimal model...
