DOWNLOAD EBOOK"Starting only with a basic knowledge of graduate real analysis and Fourier analysis, the text first presents basic nonlinear tools such as the bootstrap method and perturbation theory in the simpler context of nonlinear ODE, then introduces the harmonic analysis and geometric tools used to control linear dispersive PDE. These methods are then combined to study four model nonlinear dispersive equations. Through extensive exercises, diagrams, and informal discussion, the book gives a rigorous theoretical treatment of the material, the real-world intuition and heuristics that underlie the subject, as well as mentioning connections with other areas of PDE, harmonic analysis, and dynamical systems.".

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe theory of nonlinear wave equations in the absence of shocks began in the 1960s. Despite a great deal of recent activity in this area, some major issues remain unsolved, such as sharp conditions for the global existence of solutions with arbitrary initial data, and the global phase portrait in the presence of periodic solutions and traveling waves. This book, based on lectures presented by the author at George Mason University in January 1989, seeks to present the sharpest results to date in this area. The author surveys the fundamental qualitative properties of the solutions of nonlinear wave equations in the absence of boundaries and shocks. These properties include the existence and regularity of global solutions, strong and weak singularities, asymptotic properties, scattering theory and stability of solitary waves. Wave equations of hyperbolic, Schrodinger, and KdV type are discussed, as well as the Yang-Mills and the Vlasov-Maxwell equations. The book offers readers a broad overview of the field and an understanding of the most recent developments, as well as the status of some important unsolved problems. Intended for mathematicians and physicists interested in nonlinear waves, this book would be suitable as the basis for an advanced graduate-level course.

Lectures on the Energy Critical Nonlinear Wave Equation

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis monograph deals with recent advances in the study of the long-time asymptotics of large solutions to critical nonlinear dispersive equations. The first part of the monograph describes, in the context of the energy critical wave equation, the "concentration-compactness/rigidity theorem method" introduced by C. Kenig and F. Merle. This approach has become the canonical method for the study of the "global regularity and well-posedness" conjecture (defocusing case) and the "ground-state" conjecture (focusing case) in critical dispersive problems. The second part of the monograph describes the "channel of energy" method, introduced by T. Duyckaerts, C. Kenig, and F. Merle, to study soliton resolution for nonlinear wave equations. This culminates in a presentation of the proof of the soliton resolution conjecture, for the three-dimensional radial focusing energy critical wave equation. It is the intent that the results described in this book will be a model for what to strive for in the study of other nonlinear dispersive equations. A co-publication of the AMS and CBMS.

ISBN-13: 0821869213
DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis volume is based on the AMS Special Session on Harmonic Analysis and Partial Differential Equations and the AMS Special Session on Nonlinear Analysis of Partial Differential Equations, both held March 12-13, 2011, at Georgia Southern University, Statesboro, Georgia, as well as the JAMI Conference on Analysis of PDEs, held March 21-25, 2011, at Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, Maryland. These conferences all concentrated on problems of current interest in harmonic analysis and PDE, with emphasis on the interaction between them. This volume consists of invited expositions as well as research papers that address prospects of the recent significant development in the field of analysis and PDE. The central topics mainly focused on using Fourier, spectral and geometrical methods to treat wellposedness, scattering and stability problems in PDE, including dispersive type evolution equations, higher-order systems and Sobolev spaces theory that arise in aspects of mathematical physics. The study of all these problems involves state-of-the-art techniques and approaches that have been used and developed in the last decade. The interrelationship between the theory and the tools reflects the richness and deep connections between various subjects in both classical and modern analysis.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis book provides a self-contained presentation of classical and new methods for studying wave phenomena that are related to the existence and stability of solitary and periodic travelling wave solutions for nonlinear dispersive evolution equations. Simplicity, concrete examples, and applications are emphasized throughout in order to make the material easily accessible. The list of classical nonlinear dispersive equations studied include Korteweg-de Vries, Benjamin-Ono, and Schrodinger equations. Many special Jacobian elliptic functions play a role in these examples. The author brings the reader to the forefront of knowledge about some aspects of the theory and motivates future developments in this fascinating and rapidly growing field. The book can be used as an instructive study guide as well as a reference by students and mature scientists interested in nonlinear wave phenomena.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis book provides an overview of different topics related to the theory of partial differential equations. Selected exercises are included at the end of each chapter to prepare readers for the “research project for beginners” proposed at the end of the book. It is a valuable resource for advanced graduates and undergraduate students who are interested in specializing in this area. The book is organized in five parts: In Part 1 the authors review the basics and the mathematical prerequisites, presenting two of the most fundamental results in the theory of partial differential equations: the Cauchy-Kovalevskaja theorem and Holmgren's uniqueness theorem in its classical and abstract form. It also introduces the method of characteristics in detail and applies this method to the study of Burger's equation. Part 2 focuses on qualitative properties of solutions to basic partial differential equations, explaining the usual properties of solutions to elliptic, parabolic and hyperbolic equations for the archetypes Laplace equation, heat equation and wave equation as well as the different features of each theory. It also discusses the notion of energy of solutions, a highly effective tool for the treatment of non-stationary or evolution models and shows how to define energies for different models. Part 3 demonstrates how phase space analysis and interpolation techniques are used to prove decay estimates for solutions on and away from the conjugate line. It also examines how terms of lower order (mass or dissipation) or additional regularity of the data may influence expected results. Part 4 addresses semilinear models with power type non-linearity of source and absorbing type in order to determine critical exponents: two well-known critical exponents, the Fujita exponent and the Strauss exponent come into play. Depending on concrete models these critical exponents divide the range of admissible powers in classes which make it possible to prove quite different qualitative properties of solutions, for example, the stability of the zero solution or blow-up behavior of local (in time) solutions. The last part features selected research projects and general background material.
